Still thinking about “Vulcan who’s sure they’re dating + pining Human who doesn’t know if the Vulcan likes them”

Rn thinking about them doing domestic stuff together, like the Human knitting on the couch while watching a mystery movie and the Vulcan sitting next to them, both of them telling each other their theories for the plot twist

And the whole time the Human is just anxious like “do they like me back? this could easily be a friends’ hangout that I’m overthinking :(“

(which is true, could be a normal hangout, and a valid concern)

But, the Vulcan’s thinking about how to ask them to move in together and is considering how to bring up the idea of bonding

my problems with discovery's spore drive have nothing to do with the wacky mushroom science. Like this is Star Trek™ not some bonefide diamond on the Moh's Scale of Sci-Fi hardness like The Martian. I know to expect the writers playing a bit fast and loose with physics and how the real world works. I'm here for that wackniess, actually. Love me some technobabble about mycelial spores or tetryon particles or whatever! the thing that doesn't work for me is the way the spore drive acts narratively, and how the technology was introduced within the timeline of the series. Like it's just obvious that the writers aren't willing to let anyone else but Discovery have access to the spore drive. They twisted up the Glenn in season one, so Discovery is the only ship with a spore drive. They hemmed and hawed about genetic modification in season 2 so no one else got a spore drive. They purged records of the spore drive's existence from history and claimed that no one else had tried to make anything like it in 900 years despite a massive dilithium shortage and canonical search for other methods of propulsion in season 3. And then at the very end, just when you think, oh hey maybe the entire population of Kwejian will make for a nice crop of new spore drive pilots, the writers fucking blow up their whole planet just so they don't have to let anyone else have the spore drive. And to be fair, they can't really let anyone else have it, or else Discovery loses it's right to be "the only one we can turn to in a crisis". And that's really all it has going for it. So, I get it! Still hate it, though. And, even moreso than all the silly narrative contrivances that are used to nerf transporter technology so that the plot can still happen, this bothers me. Because sure, all the ion storms and interference can get a bit stupid. We all make fun of star trek for inventing a technology that could immediately yoink our blorbos away from their problems, only to turn around and force it to not work when it's needed most. But at least there isn't just one ship that has the ability to use the transporter at all. That would be ridiculous. Everyone would want their own transporter. And yet, that's the situation we have in Discovery. Only one ship can travel across the galaxy in the blink of an eye. The show writers keep contriving to keep it that way. And given how useful instantaneous travel is, the fact that it hasn't been replicated once, by any species in the galaxy, not just the Federation, in 900 years is just stretching the limits of my willing suspension of disbelief.

People often say, "even if it's not hostile, we should drop a nuke on it just to be sure."

The thing is, something that big, the question you need to be asking is, "what happens if the nuke doesn't kill it? What happens if all the nukes don't kill it?"

i told my partner recently that i don’t like alien movies very much and this jackass has the gall to tell me all my favorite movies are alien movies

cue us devolving into a fight about the differences between alien movies and space operas

this is what ten years together looks like. it’s fucken great

(if you were curious imo an alien movie is a movie that focuses on aliens bein aliens. a space opera is a movie or other form of media that focuses on people who just happen to be aliens/in space. also i am right and will not be taking criticism on this)

Xena Warrior Princess has been buried SO deeply in my subconscious that I very often forget both that 1) it exists and 2) it had a MASSIVE formative impact on me, because like. That was (one of) the show(s) my grandma used to let play on the TV all day while she did her homemaking, and I would stare up at that tiny box TV on the dryer in our kitchen in utter awestruck fascination of ✨the Warrior Princess✨ and her cute-but-equally-badass sidekick-girlfriend Gabrielle.

Anyways Tumblr reminded me Xena exists and I'm gonna have to find it and binge it all now, bc I'm writing a story in which the main character just has felt kinda flat and I couldn't figure out why, until it clicked about three minutes ago that I was subconsciously inspired by Xena without actually remembering Xena, and so now I'm gonna go watch it to add depth and badassery to my character(s) and also because I am deeply fucking gay for Lucy Lawless
