To be clear, this is for 4pm EST on Thursday
Also because this thread is understandably getting a lot of attention, here is a link to our Patreon. A few people have requested a higher tier, so we’ve finally added one🖖
This is incredible, my respect and gratitude to those that are making it happen. Also can’t wait.
Is that the UTC-0500 one?
I wish more people would use that format. It’s much easier to relate to your own time zone.
Is that the UTC-0500 one?
lmao thanks for the reminder that there are four timezones which could be called “EST” 😭
(but UTC-5 is the only one properly called that)
30 more minutes! God I’m excited!
+24 hours. But you can still be excited!
Oh well. Guess I gotta be patient. Thanks for the heads up!
We wanted to make sure there was lots of time to accumulate questions, but the Fediverse is unsurprisingly rising to the occasion.
This sparks joy in me!
Hi Karim! I really liking Starfleet Academy, especially the set designs. What’s your favorite set in the show?
It’s really refreshing to see a gay relationship happen organically on screen in a context outside of the contemporary stereotypes - and indeed, outside of human culture altogether. I realize Trek has done this a bit in the past with Culber/Stamets, and Reno - have you had to think about how LGBT culture exists in a multi-planetary society in the 4th millennium? Is it just plainly a utopia to strive for, for everyone? Is Jay Den’s family’s Triad House a non-issue in Klingon Society post Qu’onos, or was that something that happened out of necessity to preserve Klingon culture?
hello Karim,
saw the videos of your voice training Its amazing seeing you comfortably hit the lower registers.
If asked by the show runners to do a song, what would you sing in its original Klingon version?
(I hope its Crash Test Dummies. “Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm” would love to hear you do a cover of it Klingon or English!!!)Hello Karim! How does it feel to be the first (or at least one of the first) celebrities to do an AMA on Lemmy?
Hello Karim,
eventually you will go onto Fan Conventions. Have your costars given any words of advice how to navigate real world fan interactions?
Please ask Robert Picardo about his experience at Dragon Con. Had a great chat with him about his voice work when I met him. Would love to have you come someday and hang at the Pulse Bar!!!
Hi Karim, and thanks for the AMA!
As your character is a healer and a now a medical student, how much preparation you have had to do about health, medicine and the experiences of medical school to give depth to the role, aside from the series own technical lore?
Hi, Karim! I just watched the latest episode and I adored it. I can’t wait to see where Jay-Den goes with Kyle and Darem. If it’s something you can talk about will these three end up together romantically? Definitely picked up on some of the subtext with episode 7 and I’m absolutely loving it! Thank you!
How do you and your co-stars stay entertained during downtime on set?
Weirdly, I just thought about how odd it seemed that the fediverse didn’t have an AMA community and boom, inside 24-hours, here’s this post! Very rad seeing this and now I’ll have to add another show to my watch list!
- Have you been on the fediverse before this account and AMA post?
- If so what flavor of Linux do you run? :P
Seriously, even if you don’t see or answer these questions, it’s super cool you’re doing this and I’m glad one of the first on the platform is for Star Trek!
Is this Lemmy’s first celebrity AMA?
i feel it may be
Do you like cats?
Finally, someone asked the most important question for the fediverse!
What scene was the hardest to film? what made it so hard?
What would you like to say to people like myself who think that Starfleet Academy is written by people who seem to have never watched or understood our favorite science fiction series? (Or at least never understood the point)
What’s the most expensive thing you’ve broken?
Besides Klingons what’s your favorite Star Trek species so far!
