a ridiculous concept i cant get out of my head is the ferengi having an attitude toward vulcans thats basically "these guys would be SO COOL if they didnt SUCK" bc they could be making absolute bank with their ruthless logic and intellect and they have the second sexiest ears in the galaxy, but noooo, they're too busy deepthroating the federation's boot. BUT if you took a vulcan baby and raised it right, with good ferengi values...

cut to quark showing up one day wearing a baby bjorn and sisko or whoever asking him "why do you have a vulcan baby 🤨?" "i acquired it." "you mean adopted?" "yeah yeah whatever. lets go, t'axevasion, time to launder money with daddy"

one sided beef cause lwaxana’s mother knew he was a freak and set him up with Amanda which he is grateful for but now the downside is that her lineage stalks him wherever he goes and he has to watch his wife and lwaxana do picklebacks and throw up every time they meet. his freak4freak hubris.

really fascinated by how betazoid-vulcan diplomacy would work as two supremely different telepathic species. the touch telepaths with an intense culture of repression and secrecy vs the most free wheeling shameless least secretive species in the galaxy that has a tradition of nude weddings. if a vulcan accidentally made skin-to-skin contact with a betazoid it would be the psychic equivalent of a flash bang going off.

i think the weed situation on voyager is like you can either get it from tuvok who exclusively grows that 100000% thc vulcan mind meld deep space temporal paradox couchlock shit and will explain terpene profiles at you for at least an hour or you can get it from neelix who somehow always has at least an ounce of ditchweed on him that he’ll usually just give you for free

at the risk of sounding like a raving lunatic, i think one of my favorite trekkie memes/posts is that one where someone comments on a screenshot of tos and asks if sulu is texting, because it PERFECTLY encapsulates star trek's strange little place at the intersection of pop culture and the tech world:

like listen... 55+ years ago a bunch of actors had to use a mix of existing habits and wild imagination to come up with what they felt would be believable movements and muscle-memory for someone using completely unbelievable tech a few hundred years in the future. like tv had less than ten channels and the screen was a foot across, and they had to go "ok how would someone who's used to a tiny wireless gadget with a screen hold it and use it? how would they talk to a computer? how would the computer sound when she talked back?"

and over half a century later our own tech has surpassed the clunky retrofuture gizmos in so many ways, no doubt inspired by it, that now someone two decades into the 21st century sees an actor in the 60s holding some tiny rectangular plastic prop in both hands and immediately recognizes it as "oh, sulu's texting!" now THAT is a called shot. hell, that's putting your money on a roulette wheel in a casino that hasn't been built yet. i LOVE it. it's so star trek. sulu is absolutely texting.
