Sorry for missing yesterday, enjoy a big ol expression of Vulcan sovereign might. I could imagine there being a problem for the Andorians when they first showed up.
It is fun to imagine Vulcans selling old surplus ships, it would be only logical.

Neither should happen before Tawny Newsome's Star Trek sitcom gets made.
What do you think will happen first folks, ST: Legacy or a new series with Capt Archer returning ?

The most expected and hilarious part of this is the number of responses going "fuck the Federation" and or "fuck the prime directive" when, y'know, the Federation is basically the only galactic power not actively practicing some form of slavery and offering some form of pluralism and democracy
what star trek political opinion would you have if you lived in universe? would you still be weird about the xindi? would you be one of the people who protests the Klingon embassy in Paris? Me, i'd be a borg truther

I would have loved to see the cast back together again if they had the proper story, but Beyond is enough of a high note to conclude on in my book.
And RIP to Anton Yelchin, one gone too soon.
