THIS IS THE COOLEST SHIT EEEVER It feels like the cover of a trek comic (and if it were I'd want to read it more than anything) Perfectly captures that overstimulated vibe in how everything is so bright and jumbled !!

I'm curious about all these things with male aliens as well but something hits a little different about female aliens...!!

Podcast with every alien woman where she just tells me about her gender identity. How does being a Vulcan/Bajoran/Klingon woman differ from a Human one? Do different things cause euphoria/dysphoria (even in cis people)? How feminine/masculine do you see yourself & do other species pick up on it???

This SHOULD be about T'Pol and I guess in some ways it is, but I /was/ thinking in the moment about Prymaat from the animated pilot for The Coneheads. I know nothing about the movie and don't want to.

OMGTHEYARE!! They're great as a one or two-off villain in my opinion...a genuinely frightening unknown and powerful force but once you flesh them out and spend too much time with them, they lose all their scary factor and then what are we even doing?? 's even worse in VOY bc I wanna see NEW aliens!!

I like Seven fiine but I /will/ say she /does/ baseline bore me more than like any other voy character on top of being very overused and I've heard practically no one else express that opinion so you and I are prancing in a field now, the sunlight shining down on us.

-sound of nail being hit directly on the head- Wires got crossed, nothing we can do about it Boss v_v

That being said, it at least gives me tons of angst material for Tuvok. It's a hard knock fucking life for him when every being he comes across scrambles his brain or takes over his body. v_v

YOU DON'T!!! IT IS!!! Tuvok gets sidelined by the writers at some point after Seven gets added to the crew and the few episodes that center on him all start to center around the same thing (messing with his head in some way). I'll resent it forever...there's so much you could do with him!!

Every T'Pring is the love of my life #StonnBrained

Saying your favorite philosopher is Surak makes you come across as either incredibly fundamentalist or very basic to the point of being thoughtless. Branch out. You haven't read xclyntz'til? Or frjganrlkrnaa? Not even gambruyng'g? Uh...I think my friends are calling me. I must go.

My personal headcanon is that Vulcan has like at least twenty different schools of logic that are considered BASIC and well-known and they all sprout from Surak's teachings but interpret them differently. It's like, considered standard small talk to ask who someone's favorite philosopher is.
