me every time i watch a tng episode featuring lwaxana troi: can you please appreciate her more instead of feeling embarrassed??? (picard is the exception, the chemistry they have is a delight) she’s so awesome!!! stop treating her like she’s annoying???

i just know she and guinan would have loved each other!!!! there’s gotta be other characters that see her as the life of the party and look forward to her visits!!

she commit acts of intercourse on my erogeneous zones until i achieve sexual climax

I know "60s housewives who invented slash fanfiction" has taken on a life of its own as a phrase, but Kirk/Spock didn't really exist until the 70s and THOSE WOMEN HAD JOBS. They were teachers and librarians and bookkeepers and scientists and they damn well spent their own money going to conventions, printing zines, buying fanart and making fandom happen. Put some respect on their names.

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine "Past Tense, Pt. 1"

When I was a teenager and still on Neopets I was part of a pretty big Star Trek guild and eventually became part of its council, with the solemn duty of creating weekly polls. Well one day I created the poll "Which would win in a fight? Borg Cube or Death Star?". Naturally, since this was a Star Trek guild, the answer was overwhelmingly "Borg Cube", but someone did have the rationality to point out we were biased.

So I look up a pretty prominent Star Wars guild and message one of their council and ask them to poll the same question and get back to me in a week. They do, and naturally the fuckin geeks said "Death Star".

So then I look up a Stargate guild and messaged the lead council member, saying the same thing, and they get back to me almost immediately saying that the Death Star would immediately one-shot a Borg Cube but they would never be able to do it again to another Cube. And I took that wisdom back to my guild and we were mollified, and for one moment the Nerd World was peaceful.

Things that are going to happen in 2024 according to Star Trek:

1) the absolutely giant homeless-population of the USA (or was is just New York? Idk, I‘m from Europe) is going to start a civil-war fighting against the upper class and police.

2) Ireland is going to get united

"I don't like old sci-fi shows, the special effects look too cheesy" you are incapable of joy. Go to the dungeon.

ok so hear me out

i miss gul dukat/kira so much. I looooooove ships where the villain is super enamoured and does a lot of intricate rituals to gain favour and completely see themselves as in the right completely regardless of the heinous shit they’ve done (delusions of grandeur such a charm)… and the heroine hates his guts and wants him dead yesterday.

i really want there to be there to be a gender reversal of this but… unfortunately villainesses tend to just seem. flat. and misogynistic.

spock’s room decor is actually fucking bonkers. The weapons??? the big red velvet curtain??? like ok phantom of the opera go crazy.

for reference jim’s room has some photos and a plant so we can surmise this is uniquely a spock being a dramatic weirdo thing

Something about having an universal translator, and learning to understand without it
