my favourite voyager staff meetings

their first sad senior staff meeting in parallax when they barely have any of the senior officer positions filled and it's just janeway and a bunch of her sad guys

also parallax, when janeway and b'elanna have their first nerd moment together

when they land on the amelia earhart planet and they have their meeting and the room is filled with sunlight <3

janeway in scientific method leading the meeting but she's unhinged because she hasn't slept for a week and b'elanna and tom are terrified of getting yelled at for making out in engineering

night staff meeting. chakotay cannot boost morale. everyone is bored. they're all like 'where's janeway' and he's like 'none of your business okay?? if she wants to spend time in her room with all the lights turned off being sad that's up to her'

seven presenting her powerpoint about how shitty everyone is at staff management in good shepherd. first off why is she giving that presentation instead of chakotay, isn't he in charge of personnel? and second janeway must have greenlit that powerpoint presentation so is she just letting seven go off and do one of her little projects because she knows it brings her joy or what

year of hell senior staff meeting. depressing. eating neelix's spam and gravel soup. janeway is ready to lash out and kill

janeway plotting how to loot the borg and leaning dramatically against everyone's chairs and talking about heists and having the best time and everyone else has this subtle look in their eyes like bro what is wrong with her

tom explaining that they have to break into the fortress of doom to turn off the death ray

Tuvok is not as autistic coded in-narrative compared to what I've seen of Spock or T'Pol where they're othered heavily by those around them and have themes and arcs about struggling/striving to fit in BUT I do think he provides the vital autistic representation of not really angsting about your differences from other people because you're too busy and unaware and then even when you ARE made aware you mostly just think 'glad that's not me'. I think it's vital to have that sort of totally unbothered rep. I love that Tuvok is completely satisfied and proud of being Vulcan, doesn't long to experience emotion or struggle with a desire to express himself in a way his crewmates will understand, to be closer to them. I love that he has a long time and close friend that respects who he is and doesn't try to change him and that how close they are isn't framed as being in spite of his Vulcan nature. I love that being Vulcan isn't framed as a hindrance to him, like a roadblock to living a full and rich life. He has a wife and four kids and is a devoted husband and father. He's getting into gay horror scenarios. Tuvok was born on autism planet and he's thriving.

My villain origin story is that they're taking Star Trek Beyond off Canadian Netflix today (March 25, 2025) and so I'm watching it one last time and in the middle of McCoy shouting "DAMMIT SPOCK" and rushing to cradle a collapsing Spock's head they CUT TO COMMERCIAL significantly before the shot ended

Watching star trek with other people is so hard sometimes. "I don't like Kai Winn" "Barclay is creepy" "I don't like Lore" how. How. Explain to me how. And then because I like the people around me and I just wanna have a good time we skip all the cool episodes.

saw a post of yours from a few years ago about how there is never going to be a star trek show that critiques the federation. and i agree, i think the thought processes of the people who continue to expand on star trek will never be anything more radical than their current liberal state. i also can never remove that thought from my mind of what that would look like. what i see, in a non-existent world, is star trek ending off the films and television series with a pre-planned seven season long series that ends in the dismantling and abolition of the federation, with the first season/s being usual space exploration plots and as the show goes on the more the crew (of a starship) realizes what they're contributing to. this could set up really good holosuite episodes. when rewatching ds9, it was unavoidable to me that the holosuite episodes allow for the writers to romanticize the 1960's and to propagate their idea of english masculinity. a plot i derived from its only a paper moon, far beyond the stars, and our man bashir is a distressed black federation officer resorting to 50's holosuite programs, and all the programs are whitewashed and safe and thus construct the 50s as safe. the character stays in the holosuite and due to overusage, the computers begin to malfunction leading to a more realistic 50's slowly being presented. by the time the character deattaches themself from the program, they begin to see similarities between what they saw in the program and how the federation treats itself as superior to other races; it could end with this character witnessing another interaction between the federation and the ligonians (TNG episode: code of honor), with the narrative acknowledgement of how colonial the federation is and how they deliberately misconstrue the ligonians as under-developed and savage. the plot commenting on how people say shit like i want to live in the 1950s and are so priviliaged that they cant understand that not only were people trying to gain their rights in that era but because of the perpetual lack of doing shit and because of those reactionary sentiments we still havent gotten those rights. &c &c &c &c but we could have everything if the writers weren't liberals

i just wanted to talk. this fandom is very isolating in how it talks about politics and seeing the responses from that post alleviated that for a while

yesss i love that concept. applying a decolonial lens to star trek (and sf/f more broadly) is something i spend a lot of time thinking about and i love imagining what stories in those settings could look like guided by that philosophy. for better or for worse star trek is always going to be a product of its time and circumstances but that also gives us as fans so many interesting jumping off points to talk about stuff like, say, the unintentional imperialism and colonialism written into the show. for example i like tng, don’t get me wrong, but the whole concept of “white frenchman shows up to a new place and solves all of their problems with the power of ethical thinking” is uhh, not an unproblematic one!

imo a federation decolonization arc would’ve worked really well in either voyager or ds9. voyager had a phenomenal setup for it, especially with chakotay right there, but on the other hand it’s not like they could’ve had much of an impact on the federation as a whole. if ds9 had more of a focus on the bajorans and the maquis as opposed to starfleet and really committed itself to deconstructing the whole frontier myth it could’ve worked great. in terms of possible future series i think the best case scenario is that we get something like star wars’ andor but for the maquis, but realistically even that will still probably treat the federation as the lesser of two evils

The way Jikookers giggling about abo ff Wkorea wrote about Jikook because one of editor is friends with JM and Jk thinking he knows whats up...while the title literally says : ' BROmance ' 💀

Yeah Bromance.

Jikook bros. Wbk

My friends and I will be taking shots each time Jikook call eo bro during AYS. Maybe it will dilute all the other gay stuff they'll be up to. 😏

I couldn't get that idea out of my head of Chakotay stumbling across Kathryn and Dal taking apart a replicator at 3 in the morning as a bonding activity and Chakotay using that photo to introduce Dal to the Bridge Kids.

So here is the photo of Kathryn and Dal and Chakotay sending it to their first lot of kids (and the kids replies along the side).

Yes, Chakotay left them on read.

Yes, Janeway is wearing his Best Mom shirt.

the really late 25 days of coasters finale / 7. the voyage, holiday world # of rides: 73 / last ridden: fall 2023

i love rides that go on forever and ever. i love rides with a lot of airtime. i love an absolutely flawless night ride. the voyage provides all of that. aggressive, long, pitch black night rides out in the woods. there's something so beautiful about approaching the trims, taking a breath, and looking at the stars before you descend the pitch black triple down. by far my favorite wooden coaster & favorite night ride.

Every time I watch the cold open of Memorial and B'Elanna tells Tom about how she ASSEMBLED a 50's television set from SCRATCH just to surprise him (there's no reason beyond that - just an incredibly sweet and thoughtful gesture) and replicated popcorn for him to eat while he watches and Tom says "They didn't have remote controls in the 50's ♥ Also where's my beer?" I contemplate murder ESPECIALLY because B'Elanna responds cheerfully to it - GIRL!!! LEAVE HIM!!!!!! IS HE SUPPOSED TO BE CHARMING IN THIS SCENE????
