unpopular opinion: klingons have been explored with much more nuance and depth than vulcans have send tweet

“I had a very interesting conversation with your [Adam Nimoy] father about Spock, because we were talking about him as a cold, unemotional guy. And Leonard said, ‘I never played him that way. I always played him as a guy trying to keep his emotions in check.”

- Nicholas Meyer, writer/director, Star Trek II and VI, co-writer, Star Trek IV

still cannot believe Star Trek canonically made an episode where the plot was ‘Spock goes into heat and is going to die unless he has sex but then he rolls around on the ground with Kirk and pins him down and chokes him and after that he’s fine". 

Also this episode establishes that touching and sharing thoughts is so intimate that it is used to seal an arranged marriage pact…in the same episode where in an earlier scene Kirk just casually grabs Spock’s hand and Spock seems cool with it. 

Oh. And ALSO. After Spock has explained to Kirk that he is in heat and needs to have sex or die he’s all “Captain, there is a thing that happens to Vulcans at this time. Almost an insanity, which you would no doubt find distasteful.“ And Kirk’s response is to kind of raise an eyebrow and say “Will I?” in a way that suggests very much the opposite.

I just. This show was something else huh. No wonder it manifested modern fandom and fanfiction culture.

Memes shared by kids who grew up on starships I think they should have sea scout/land scout beef with kids that grew up on Starbases

May I suggest a Good Dog Carl series of events (with or without companion) where, for some reason, the whole crew is off the ship and spot stays behind. She's told to be good and "stay here," and as soon as everyone's gone, she's getting into shenanigans all across the ship, only to fix everything up and settle back into the place she was left right before the crew returns and congratulates her for being such a good girl while they were gone.

biggest tng fail was not having a spot-centric episode where she explores the enterprise

An embroiderini of the one and only Dr. Beverly Crusher! She is one of my favorite characters from TNG, and she’s been utterly fantastic on ‘Picard’.🖖🏽

Interviewer: So, how would you describe the crewmembers of the Enterprise?

Dr. McCoy: Well, I'd say Captain Kirk is the kind of person who eats two gummy bears at the same time so they don't die alone.

I can't decide what I like more

Will and Deanna were actually dating the entire time and just had an open relationship

Or everyone thought they were dating because they act like that overly affectionate couple all the time but they're actually just besties
