idk if you did this already but could you please change spock and kirk's lirpas from amok time to yaoi paddles

you say “idk if you did this already” as if this is something that would naturally occur to me

the way ppl treat spock (especially when he is in command) is just so sad to me.

the guy is (half) vulcan, his identity is based almost entirely on the vulcan ideologies around logic and emotionlessness. we see a few glimpses of the fact that he does, in fact, feel, but it's definitely different from the way humans feel. he's a vulcan, and vulcan dont feel like humans do (or at least arent governed by emotions like we are). the crew of the Enterprise know this. they joke abt it all the time (especially Bones). and yet they're still angry with him when he doesnt react appropriately to death or any dangerous situation. and that PISSES ME OFF

yes im autistic why do you ask

One of my biggest pet peeves with Jim Kirk's fanon/fanfic characterization is how so much of the time he's depicted as stupid...not just because he's standing next to Spock for comparison, but straight up lacking intelligence.

And I gotta be honest it DOES rub me the wrong way sometimes. I do think a lot of it comes from this puritanical belief that, somehow, people who are charismatic and gregarious and extroverted and like to have a good time are *incapable* of being intelligent and that's just not true. VS Spock, of course, fills the "virtuous enlightened smart guy" stereotype (read: doesn't fuck, isn't sociable, has never been to a party, doesn't act out or misbehave, etc.) very naturally. It's easy for us as the audience to believe he's intelligent because of it.

But Spock and Jim are shown to be equally matched at every turn, and they have a deep mutual respect. Jim is NOT dumber than Spock, and I doubt Spock would be nearly as loyal to Kirk as he is if he held that opinion of him. I think where he and Kirk differ is that while Spock has the edge on Jim when it comes to encyclopedic knowledge and mental math, Jim is definitely more emotionally intelligent. That's why he's the captain, afterall.

Spock is often alienated from the crew because he doesn't realize he's talking over people's heads. And yet, we see time and again that Jim is 100% capable of following along with all the technical jargon Spock and Scotty throw at him!!! The fact that Jim talks to others on their level--in layman's terms, with familiarity and a sense of humor, allowing others the chance to be the expert in the room, listens to what they have to say instead of acting like he knows everything--is a CHOICE that he makes, deliberately, and is HUGE sign of emotional intelligence, not ignorance.

Anyway tl;dr it really grinds my gears when Jim is written like a dumbass who failed general physics or makes idiotic, reckless decisions and succeeds only on luck and the crew covering his ass at the end of the day. Actually, I think TOS Jim is one of the few well-written leaders in fiction because we ALWAYS see him weighing the opinions and insights of the experts in the crew before making a final call.

Someone who's genuinely intelligent but also self-secure isn't trying to be the smartest guy in the room all the time. To me, Jim is someone who lets his actions speak for themselves.

okay this is kind of a stupid thought but I was thinking about the internal debates that Vulcan society must have around logic and it occurred to me that Vulcan must have “logical relativists” in the same way that human philosophy has moral relativists…I just know that there’s at least 30 Vulcan philosophers who want to KILL the noble Storek House of T’Nel (or something) because he can’t stop telling everyone that All Behavior is Inherently Logical as it Makes Sense to the Acting Party at the Time. Humans are Illogical Therefore it is Logical That They Act Illogicaly, thus All of Their Actions are Logical. All Thought, Conscious or Unconscious, Proceeds from Biological and Neurochemical Impulses. Therefore, the Sentient Being Behaves Much like a Computer, Following its Compiled Commands. No Behavior, Knowing the Chemical Commands that Preempt Consciousness, Can Be Considered Illogical.

and everyone else is just like “ohhh my fucking GOD Storek, shut UP!”
