I like the thing in TNG where they go to see their friends performing in the community play and they say “hey that’s nice” and everyone is like “yeah this is nice” and it’s just a nice time.

The one thing I really like about Barclay in TNG is that his social anxiety makes him offputting and difficult to be around. That's such an overlooked fact of social anxiety and mental illness in general. So often when fiction portrays social anxiety it leaves out how it can look to others and how it can make you difficult to be around.

It's like the opposite of those anti-bullying ads we all saw as kids with someone being bullied for no obvious reason. TNG shows there is a reason as to why people dislike Barclay and that it does not make it anymore okay to be shitty towards him because of that.

I also really appreciate the fact that it is the main characters that are being kind of shitty about Barclay and it is as much on Barclay to work on his anxiety as it is on the rest of the crew to work on their behavior. More mental health narratives need to be like this.

thinking about how star trek fans can be so hypocritical. barclay was a very anxious socially inept guy with less than desirable coping mechanisms that were frankly creepy. he outgrew them but creepy guy is still his legacy. pulaski had bigoted feelings against data because she was wary and didn't understand him. she ended up accepting him and treating him like any sentient being but her legacy is still that old bitch who's racist against data. but when garak almost succeeds in committing a genocide, his legacy is gay uwu babygirl. make it make sense
