Classically trained actor on a Star Trek show on their knees begging the writing team for a Shakespeare-themed episode
“It can be in the holodeck!! Or time travel!! I STILL REMEMBER MY LINES AS KING RICHARD”
Classically trained actor on star Trek speaking with their whole chest, their voice heavy with gravitas: The Smellulons may be limited to what they can scent out with their tentawhiskers, but as STARFLEET OFFICERS we must rely on our REASON"
I do think a large part of the utopian element of star trek is that nobody has to do the dishes anymore
Peace and love on the planet Star Trek. Everyone has to say one nice thing about Star Trek. I’ll start: I like their silly boots :)
I like that the enterprise D and many other ships are carpeted lol
I like the little beeping sounds and the whistle when someone is getting commed on the ship in tos :’)
I like their creative hairdos and sparkly clothes :D
i like that it gives us something to reach for in terms of innovation and invention!! space travel woooo
i like the silly flaired pants in tos and the trans carpets in ds9 and the faith of the heart in ent
I like how it makes characters with absolutely no social skills relatable and sympathetic instead of just punching bags
I like the Starfleet motto, “ex astris scientia”, which means “from the stars, knowledge”!
I like how it shows deep abiding friendships
I mean this in total sincerity: I like that everyone is queer and/or queer coded even when it’s accidental
reality shifted to star trek universe just so I can read intergalactic Reddit aita
aita? my partner (24M Vulcan) won’t talk to me (26Z Andorian) after I condemned the P'Jem surveillance program.
he says I “don’t have the full context” but to be frank this became public like 150 years ago so I don’t know what context I could be missing.
Man this has so much potential.
AITA for not wanting to move to a planet with an atmosphere that is toxic to me? My (32M Human) fiancee (36F Barzan) wants to move back to her home planet after we get married, but if we do I won’t be able to survive outside special pressurized environments.
I told my betazoid girlfriend she “couldn’t understand what I was going through” and now she’s not speaking to me. AITA?
AITA? I accidentally short-circuited my sister’s android boyfriend by introducing it to the liar’s paradox.
AITA for explaining to a ferengi student what a “strike” is when he asked? His parents are saying that he’s “too young to know” and that it’s the parents job to explain these sensitive topics to children. Could I be sued for this?
My (40sM human) ex security officer (40sM human) kept quoting Les Miserables so I used a chemical weapon to make his planet uninhabitable. AITA?
I (32F human) accidentally slept with my husband’s (33M Andorian) transporter clone. AITA? He’s saying I “should have known the difference” but the doctor told us they’re physically and mentally identical!
AITA for overseeing the occupation of Bajor, running work camps with deadly conditions, helping the Dominion wage war against the Alpha quadrant, and founding a wraith-worshiping cult to bring about the end of the universe? Ok title sounds bad, I know, but hear me out.
We need to take a moment to acknowledge these Vulcan hats.
i don’t even understand how star trek happened to me. be careful, kids. star trek is out there and it can happen to you too
STAR TREK + turquoise (requested by anonymous)
What Hamlet said with irony I say with conviction: “What a piece of work is man! How noble in reason, how infinite in faculties, in form and moving how express and admirable, in action how like an angel, in apprehension how like a god!”
did a lot of ppl in the star trek fandom grow up with a star trek lovin’ family or did you have to like, see the fact that star trek exists and actively go “yes. this is what i want in my life. space gays.”
Cheers to every trekkie. From the 60′s until now.
Cheers to the trekkie that was really into Star Trek during a 6 month period in 2003. The trekkie that passed around meticulously handcrafted zines in the 70′s.The housewife that watched Amok Time on the tiny little tv screen in 1967 and was forever changed. The trekkie that only ever watched one movie. The trekkie that’s slowly drifting away from the fandom as newer things become more interesting. The trekkie who sees the characters as family. Cheers to the people that have been trekkies for over 50 years.
Cheers to you, trekkies. 'IwlIj jachjaj!
sometimes you hear the title of a star trek episode and you never stop thinking about it ever again.
