Putting out a call to Star Trek fans here on Mastodon.

[mxk@hachyderm.io]

@lockelyfox oh no.
And it's definitely cooler than any currently available variants of "tea earl grey hot" cups I can find 🫤

[w4tsn@darmstadt.social]

@lockelyfox my brain: holodeck error

[temptoetiam@eldritch.cafe]

@lockelyfox it appears to be on sale here:
https://www.hallmark-mall.com/hallmark-star-trek-the-next-generation-replicator-color-changing-mug-16-oz/

[alejandro_p@mathstodon.xyz]

@lockelyfox damn, sorry for your loss

[queerty@kinkycats.org]

@lockelyfox I think the dilithium mines on Rura Penthe would be fitting for this outrage

[jhb17@mastodon.online]

@lockelyfox

Beautiful.

How did I not know I need that?

[deathcat2508@layer8.space]

@lockelyfox
https://www.gifts-stores.com/hallmark-star-trek-the-next-generation-replicator-color-changing-mug-16-oz/

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@Deathcat2508 sadly that site and the hallmark-mall site both appear to be scams. Check their addresses on their Contact Us pages. Neither are real addresses.

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@kDelta Sadly that's a pretty obvious scam site. Their address listed is wholly fake.

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@temptoetiam
Sadly that's a scam site. Their about me page says they sell men's fashion out of the UK and their Contact Us page address provides a wholly fake address.

[deusfigendi@troet.cafe]

@lockelyfox

I am so sorry your mug has been beamed halfway into the floor

[temptoetiam@eldritch.cafe]

@lockelyfox Oh no Sorry I apologize for not vetting it first.

[ohir@social.vivaldi.net]

@lockelyfox
There are glues for earthenware. In pre-chemistry times, we glued broken cups with milk (it takes oh time, but caseine works well for years and poses no health danger)

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@ohir It sadly split directly in the middle of the color changing text and that ended up shattering flakes off. It's not repairable in any way that would maintain it's original look and feel.

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@temptoetiam Its okay, it seems like Hallmark has this issue with ai copycat sites. I ran into a few last night and then have gotten 3-4 new ones today recommended. Always the same site template, but when you look up their Contact Us address it's just AI generated bs

[lockelyfox@meow.social]

@kDelta Yeah I did my own search and had to vet a few of these before I posted the call for aid. It seems like Hallmark has this issue pretty significantly.

[pseudonym@mastodon.online]

@lockelyfox

So sorry to hear that.

But please tell us you had a cat whose name was "Q" who was responsible for it.

Because I can just picture him taking that form, knocking Picard's mug off, then still in cat form with DeLancy's voice saying "Oops, sorry Jean Luc"

[michael@social.chrisco.me]

@lockelyfox Awlways loved that old star trek UI. Nice cup. Shame about it.

[madmike77@chaos.social]

@lockelyfox Reminds me that I once wanted to learn #Kintsugi.

[darth_hideout@mas.to]

@lockelyfox

Maybe it's been suggested, but maybe someone with a 3d printer could replicate that & ship it to you.
