Hello. I am Lieutenant Commander Data of the USS Enterprise. I am conducting research into human concepts in your era. I will post occasional questions. Please answer honestly but politely. I appreciate your input. Thank you.

For those who read SpaceDad Stories on AO3, book three has started there! archiveofourown.org/works/67… Kudos and kind comments replenish my deuterium stores. :D Reminder that all books land first as pdfs and epubs here: kimberlychapman.com/spacedad…
Book cover. Text: SpaceDad Stories: The Dreams We Dare to Dream, Book Three, A Work of Fan Fiction by Kimberly Chapman. Images from top down: Anna White dressed as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz but with Anna's artificial right leg, appearing to stand atop Starbase 84 with a tan-yellow planet in the background. The Enterprise D is coming out of the starbase. At the bottom is Geordi La Forge looking towards Data and Jean-Luc Picard. Data's chest is open to reveal an old style of telephone, the receiver of which is in Picard's hand. A faint, ghostly image of Locutus hovers behind Picard.

Asexuality is completely valid in all of its various forms. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being asexual. I fully support your identity and will do my part to keep you safe. 🖤💙😷🥄🖤🩶🤍💜

SpaceDad Stories Book Four's first draft is finally done! Editing will hopefully go quickly, then it's off to the test reader and I will immediately start work on Book Five.
LCARS style graphic showing that SpaceDad Stories Book Four: Friends and Family is in the First Draft stage, along with a map showing Deep Space Four, Starbase 219, and Starbase 84, plus Traumametors showing medium trauma for Picard, very high trauma for Anna White, and low trauma for Data. Also lists the current word count of 91862, 15 chapters, and the beginning and end stardates (47237.1 to 47264.0). Indicates overlap with canon TNG episode 7-07 and bypassing DS9 episode 2-06. Also includes panels for the Enterprise D, the Baltimore, and various numbers that are puzzles for fans to solve.

Do you like "show tunes"? I am told this generally refers to Broadway or Broadway-like musicals. Spot has a favorite, shown to her by Doctor Crusher. Can you guess what it is?

Your captain has given you a half hour to "infodump" on a visiting VIP and you can pick the topic. What are you going to talk about?

This platform is attempting to silence me on this issue. I am not a man known to sit quietly while bigotry is afoot. Should this platform become unusable I am on these alternative subspace channels: facebook.com/SpaceDadStories tumblr.com/blog/spacedadsupp… bsky.app/profile/writercraft…

Please tell me about your favorite chair. Cat photos are also welcome, as always. You may also wish to tell me about your cat's favorite chair, especially if it used to be your chair but your cat has seized it.

I apologize for not asking many questions lately. It is not because I do not have many to ask, but we are engaged in an EPS overhaul and I lack the time to properly pay attention to answers. Questions will resume shortly. Please share cat photos at will.

Is intentional time travel ethical, and what would you do with that power if you had it?

Do you read manuals or do you forge your own way and learn by doing/breaking things? I considered making a joke about la-forging your own way but Geordi is generally a manual-reader. Also, Geordi does not like my jokes. Perhaps you do. That would be a separate question.

This post by the Captain makes me wish to ask if you all enjoy science fiction. The Captain does not.

May any force that helps you in any way be available to you whenever you require it. If you should happen to find happiness in a community of fans wishing each other goodness on this particular day, that is a wonderful thing for everyone. #Maythe4thBeWithYou

Would you rather be trapped in a turbolift with a random, unknown humanoid male or a targ?

What non-mammalian creatures do you prefer or even have as pets? Frogs are very interesting to me lately but I have encountered very few in person. You can still show me your cat images on this thread. Cat images are always welcome. I enjoy greeting your cats.

If you had access to a replicator with an uncertain amount of time on it, what is the first thing you would make? Assume all available patterns are loaded into that replicator. Remember that replicators cannot generate living organic matter.
