Brown and black youths are aged up for any mistreatment; 30 year old white Nazis are just kids who don’t know better.

Day of the Dove!

And oh no, the Klingon guy *smiled and laughed*. Kingdoms never do that! Except we saw them do it all the fuckin time.

Just... I think some people want to bury anything that doesn't pander to them, personally, and a lot of these complaints are smoke and blister. 🤷‍♀️

has likely shifted gears heavily since then. Given she's in Starfleet, I think we can just assume that Jem'hadar are long since not just a warrior slave caste. And if that's the case, it's not hard to imagine they were granted greater self-sovereignty, which probably includes reproductive rights.

AND THEN THEY FUCKING DID THAT? AND IT TURNED THEM INTO SALAMANDERS?

Like. Babes.

I love Trek.

But my people are mad. 💜

And the "current" warp scale? Is mad? Like, it goes from warp 1 (the speed of light) on an exponential curve to 9.9999repeating. because warp 10? You occupy all points in the universe at the same time.

Bro. You are standing next to that fucking thing. They literally touch it at times but the surface of the warp core is just... Room temperature. That is fucking bonkers. They are harnessing relativistic power, sometimes just to take a quick hop around the relative neighborhood.

Like, do you understand how much energy they are riding? I don't because they use measures that are actually absurd. They talk about the heat inside the warp core as being in the millions of kelvins. And like, yeah

use the insane amount of energy released when the deuterium and anti-deuterium mutually annihilate to break physics and let us go literally exponentially faster than light with zero time dilation.

Let's take deuterium and anti-deuterium and fire them down massive super conductive magnet coil tubes at each other into a weird crystal that somehow interacts with subspace,

And the thing is? I love it? Sure, sometimes you need to amp your drama with some technobabble explaining why you can't just shoot the bad guy, but also it's more convenient to film if your actors can just walk around, even if "power fails".

The tricorder goes whirrr.

Phasers fire a dense beam of charged nadion particles. There are detailed diagrams about the difference between phaser cannons, emitters, and arrays. They leave behind distinct energy signatures and can be tuned to a variety of settings producing everything from mild discomfort to vaporizing objects

I'm just fucking tired of this shit, y'all.

I'm not saying to abandon all that's come before, but holy shit I would kill for an all-new crew that takes place after Voyager, isn't obsessed with reminding us that the writers have seen other Trek episodes, and just tells good stories about people reaching for excellence. I want *Star Trek.*

And frankly? I haven't heard a single fucking suggestion for a new Trek series that isn't lubing it's asshole for more rememberberries. The closest I've seen is Academy, which still seems to need a legacy character... Because. Maybe Newsome's proposed series will give us something new.
