if s1 has a million fans I am one of them. if s1 has 1000 fans I am one of them. if s1 has 1 fan it’s me. if s1 has 0 fans it means I am no longer of this world. if the world is against s1 then I am against the world

possession horror where the thing possessing the autistic character causes them to behave in a more neurotypical way. autistic possession horror where the thing inside you is easier to communicate with than you are, the thing inside you doesn’t have a flat affect, the thing inside you doesn’t let your body stim, the thing inside you is how you were told to behave and you can only do it when you are no longer you. autistic possession horror where you will never forget that everyone liked it better than you before they found out something was controlling you. autistic possession horror where they know what’s inside you isn’t you and debate whether it would be easier for everyone to leave you like this anyway. you agree. reblog.

IT'S THRESHOLD DAY

[myenterpriseisparked]

I hope every January 29 Brannon Braga hides in his home as we parade the streets praising his monster.

[transhuman-priestess]

Brannon Braga’s transformation fetish lives forever.

[transhuman-priestess]

It isn’t just threshold. Brannon Braga wrote first contact and despite the best of both worlds, first contact is the first time we see the Borg assimilating as a matter of course.

I’m not criticizing Brannon Braga. Brannon Braga created me.

[foone]

List of Brannon Braga episodes that focus on TF:

TNG Season 4: Identity Crisis. An alien parasite has been turning humans into aliens, and it nearly happens to Geordi

TNG Season 6: A Fistful of Datas. A holoprogram is corrupted and all the characters turn into Data, while Data turns into a cowboy.

TNG Season 7: Genesis. The entire Enterprise-D gets TF'd into animals, minus Picard & Data.

Voyager Season 2: Threshold. Tom Paris goes so fast he becomes a lizard, turns Janeway into a lizard, they have lizard babies together.

Voyager Season 4: The Killing Game (parts I and II): Aliens stick the Voyager crew in a holodeck and assign them new roles, which results in some cross-species TF and

Voyager season 6: Unimatrix Zero. It's a borg episode, and several crew members get partially assimilated.

and of course, the movie Star Trek: First Contact, which involves the borg assimilating and the Borg Queen turning Data human.

Outside of Star Trek, he also produced Threshold, the series, which is about an alien signal that transforms humans into monsters.

foone I love you and this addition is great, but, did you just know this offhand?

[foone]

nah I looked up the list of episodes he wrote on Memory Alpha, the trek wiki

deanna troi my beloved

[jay-trekking]

Since only one TNG film bothers to explain why Worf's there I'm working under the assumption that Sisko and Picard have a custody arrangement where Jean-Luc gets him on weekends

[homoqueerjewhobbit]

Janeway mediating the custody dispute going "we'll just slice him in half" to see who breaks first.

Genuinely one of my favorite things about TNG is how often they're just doing art for fun. Riker's been playing trombone since he was a kid and he really enjoys it and also he is Not Good. Dr. Crusher is stalking the halls trying to rope all her friends and acquaintances into joining her community theater productions and musical reviews even if they've never been on stage before. They're constantly going to their crewmates' music recitals and poetry readings, and some of these people are impressively good at what they do but some of them are just getting started or content to stay at beginner level. They're having fun! They don't have to be prodigies in order to be involved with art because engaging with art on whatever level has value of its own! THIS is what I want to see in my post-scarcity socialist space future. Will Riker's bad trombone playing is load-bearing, actually.

oh, voyager. so much to love. so, so much to hate, too.

Before anyone becomes a writer on Star Trek they should be forced to take a one-week class with me about rhetoric and bioessentialism before they write any alien species

[mylittleredgirl]

i love a good first contact day hand-kissing-with-tongue meme, don't get me wrong, but put that aside for just one post. i think that from a vulcan perspective there's something really precious about that moment, and to me, it even explains their (very vulcan) affection for humankind from then on.

yes, vulcans do sometimes touch hands in a sensual way, but when you think about sarek and amanda touching hands publicly in "babel," it's not a "public display of affection" in a get-a-room way. it's very affectionate, but it's a public display of affiliation.

i don't know, just imagine that you're the vulcans. you go investigate this warp signature, and you know these people have never met aliens before. first contact is a dangerous mission! these aliens (earthlings) could very likely just shoot you!

and so you land, and these new aliens tentatively approach. no shooting yet, so you give a formal gesture of respect. and this alien tries to mimic it... and then basically embraces you like you're a member of their family.

i think that would really endear me to this new species!

[crying] that’s humanity, baby!!
