i know that some gross male dudebro is going to mansplain star trek to me at some point in my life, and at that moment i will cut him off with a theatrical “oh, the sound of male ego. you travel halfway across the galaxy, and it’s still the same song.”

this is an excellent response for 3 reasons.

1. The quote is actually from star trek, so if he doesn’t get the reference, it means it’s likely that I know more about the show than he does.

2. If he does get the reference, he’ll have to eat his fucking words

3. if he doesn’t get the reference, he will assume you have been halfway across the galaxy and are therefore an alien. and of course it is always good to have at least one person convinced you are an alien.

that concludes this text post. have a nice day

Logical. Flawlessly Logical.

I love sitting down to a Star Trek episode bc you never know what you’re gonna get. Will it be a good science fiction concept? An interesting character based episode? The genuinely worst thing you’ve seen in your life? The genuinely worst thing you’ve seen in your life but my god it’s entertaining?

thanks to @enterprisery I am thinking about Trek-type bird aliens again. (yes I know TAS has bird aliens but I don’t mean those guys, okay?)

And you know I feel like I’ve talked a lot about what they would look like in terms of feathers and wings and such.

What is really important tho: Can they kiss? Can they fuck?

and I say, Why not??

I think instead of terrestrial bird beaks, they would have lips and such almost like ours. Inside, they would have hardened ridges instead of teeth, like an internal beak. Also their faces would be a bit sharper.

Also! Yes of course they can fuck. But they are birds. Tho many bird species do have penises, not all of them do. I think it would be interesting if they all just have cloacas with no phallus inside. I figure the surrounding tissue would be very sensitive. They prob could be fucked but it might not do much for them, bc like, why would it?

I also think we could just throw gender out the goddam window. Yes most birds have sexual dimorphism, but! Not all of them. And many species have same sex couples who “adopt” abandoned (or not so abandoned) chicks and raise them. I feel like the aliens would make little distinction between a family like this and one that has made its own egg, so to speak.

They definitely lay eggs. I think it would be exceptionally difficult for them to interbreed with the more purely mammalian races, but could possibly have success with Cardassians and maybe the Gorn?

Also they absolutely evolved from something that looked a lot like dinosaurs.

(Sometimes I think things like “what if the Hebitians had feathers?”)

anyway bird alien thoughts for the day! anyone have thoughts or ideas to add?

one thing I’ve always loved about star trek is how ready everyone is to believe their crewmates’ absolutely unbelievable stories. there’s no proof of anything; just one person’s account of events. worf comes back from his bat'leth tournament and begins jumping between timelines: once he’s figured out what’s happening and he goes to the crew for help, everyone starts looking for a way to get him back. kes is suddenly living her life backwards and every time she wakes up she has to explain her situation again: everyone believes her (but only once she’s younger; as an old woman, she is deemed confused, which eeeeh sucks.) and she ends up in the right place again. julian bashir is kidnapped and placed in a simulation by a secret division of Starfleet no one has ever heard of and he has no evidence whatsoever: sisko and the others still believe him no questions asked.

I don’t necessarily mind stories where it takes characters time and energy to convince people that their problem is real but it’s so refreshing to have a show where these things are so easily accepted (and I mean, it’s space and they’ve all time-traveled at least once, so why wouldn’t you believe it). the trust that it implies! the things it says about the relationships between characters!
