Captain Christopher Pike | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds S03 Official Trailer

[cptnchristopherpike]

I was devastated when I found out today about Season 5 being the last for Star Trek: Strange New Worlds.

I knew the end would have to come eventually, but that doesn't make it hurt less.

I've come to love this series, its cast and crew, and their adventures very much. I know we still have seasons 3, 4 and 5 on the way, but it'll all feel a bit bittersweet.

// I LOVE that we're getting some more "Chef Pike" in Season 3 of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. These moments are part of why I feel so connected to Captain Pike and his crew. They're not just shipmates. They're good friends, and these occasions strengthen that bond. Also, that food (a spiral-cut ham, I think?) looks delicious.

// I'm not too worried. I think we'll see plenty of our perfectly coiffed captain in Season 3. He was in at least six scenes in that trailer, and as far as I know, Anson didn't have any scheduling conflicts this time around. Still getting a lot of James T. Kirk hanging around, though. I'd love to see some reference to that "Why are you always on my ship?" mock-up -

Yeah, that one - and have someone ask him, "Aren't you supposed to be the first officer of the Farragut? Why are you here so much?" 🤣 Don't get me wrong; I LOVE Paul Wesley as Kirk. He's really growing into the role quite nicely. I just want to see more of Captain Pike.

Anson Mount on his podcast 'The Well'

While shooting Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3 in Toronto, Anson filmed a podcast episode with co-host Branan Edgens, chatting about tv, books and music.

Anson's book recommendation is The MANIAC by Benjamín Labatut. The book explores the life and thought of a clutch of mathematicians and physicists who took science to strange and sometimes dangerous new realms. A prodigy whose gifts terrified the people around him, John von Neumann transformed every field he touched, inventing game theory and the first programable computer, and pioneering AI, digital life, and cellular automata. Labatut shows us the evolution of a mind unmatched and of a body of work that has unmoored the world in its wake.

Anson's graphic novel recommendation is THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH by James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds. It revolves around the idea that if enough people believe in a conspiracy, it becomes real, and there is a government agency involved with keeping reality stable. The agency is controlling the narrative for what they claim is the greater good. What is the deep, dark secret behind the Department of Truth? Read the first issue online at the official site.

OOC: From the Mun - IMPORTANT

Okay, so...I'm interrupting my hiatus to highlight one of my Captain Pike creative/RP blog rules here:

Also, if you start posting a lot of political, activism and/or religious stuff, you’re going to get un-followed.  What you believe in or whoever has your political loyalty is your business, but there are far better venues for that material than in a roleplay blog in general and on my dash in particular.

I'm doing this because I've seen backlash against Anson Mount for stuff he's posted on Twitter (I refuse to call it "X") in relation to a certain hot-button topic. Let me make this powerfully and unmistakably clear:

I absolutely, positively do NOT have an atom's worth of fucks to give about your political/social views, or about how you feel about Anson's political/social views, except for how they annoy me when I see them in my dash.

In case that isn't enough to make it all sink in, allow me to elaborate:

What I feel or don't feel about his points of view are none of your concern, and you have no basis or right to judge me one way or another as you have no frame of reference.

Furthermore, my political/social views in general are no concern of yours, and unless I share them here, you'll never know them. Don't assume or guess; the odds are good that you'll be wrong.

I don't owe you my opinions on ANYTHING, and whatever I do share, I'll decide how much I want to expand on them, NOT you.

My liking an actor or actress has no bearing on their personal points of view, or mine. PERIOD. I don't need any celebrity to tell me how I should feel about something, and I don't have the arrogance to presume I have a say in how they feel.

I don't follow and admire an actor or actress because of their personal views. I follow them for their career-based talent and their body of work. Their personal feelings take a distant back seat.

I don't care about, or want to see, anything you have to say about me liking Anson Mount or the characters he plays. Don't bother sharing those opinions with me. If you do, you'll be immediately blocked.

If you try to insinuate that I feel one way or another about any political or social issue and weaponize that insinuation, I'll report your ass with a quickness and then block you.

I won't reply to, share, or otherwise entertain, any asks, comments, posts, reposts, or anything else you share in response to this or any follow-up post. You will win no fame and gain no ground here, so don't waste your time.

If you don't like my attitudes on this matter, you're welcome to unfollow and/or block me.

This is the first and last time I'll be addressing this matter in any form on this platform. Thank you for your time.
