I’m voting btw
Less than thirty pages into this book and I am going to fucking bite someone
Spock: If you didn't drown in your emotions, you would suffer less.
Bones: If you didn't suppress your emotions, you would live more.

I would like to thank spirk for leading to heated rivalry
The story of Nichelle Nichols and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
“Actress Nichelle Nichols who made television history in the 1960s with her portrayal of “Star Trek” character Lieutenant Nyota Uhura – a breakthrough role that showed an African American woman in a position of power as the fourth in command of a starship. At the end of the first season, however, Nichols was frustrated by the show’s development and considering a move back to Broadway until she met a very special fan who convinced her how important her role on the show was – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
After Nichols told Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry that she was leaving the show, he encouraged her to think it over. That weekend, she attended a fundraiser for the NAACP and met King who told her he was a “Trekkie” and “Lieutenant Uhura’s most ardent fan.” As Nichols described in an interview with the Huffington Post, when King learned that she was leaving, he urged her to stay, stating: “‘Don’t you realize how important your presence, your character is? This is not a black role or a female role. You have the first nonstereotypical role on television. You have broken ground’… ‘Here we are marching, and there you are projecting where we’re going. You cannot leave [the show]. Don’t you understand what you mean?’ I told him that when I would go on hiatus from the show, I could come and march with him and he said, ‘No! You’re an image for us. We look on that screen and we know where we’re going.’ It was like he was saying, 'Free at last, free at last!’” Nichols did stay on the show with its entire run and went on to make history again in 1968 as part of the first scripted interracial kiss on TV with William Shatner, who played the show’s lead character, Captain James T. Kirk. Nichols’ groundbreaking character had a huge cultural influence, especially as a role model for many African American girls. Mae Jemison, the first African American woman in space, has cited her as an important influence and even used Uhura’s signature line “Hailing frequencies open” during the course of her duties on the space shuttle.”

A more comprehensive version of an older post I made
[ID: A playlist titled "spock explains pon farr to kirk" by user taken from amok time. The playlist is 4 hours and 5 minutes long and uses song titles to spell out an entire conversation, here transcribed in plain text:
"Captain, there are some things which transcend even the discipline of the service." "Would it help if I told you that I'll treat this as totally confidential?" "It has to do with biology." "What?" "Biology" "What kind of biology?" "Vulcan biology" "You mean the biology of Vulcans?" "Biology, as in, reproduction?" "Well, there's no need to be embarrassed about it Mr. Spock. It happens to the birds and the bees." End ID]
thanks to @nebulations for the ID recommendation to increase accessibility :)

I got some anons too saying something or other about "uhh uhhh but you're a star trek blog you cant be anti c.ai!"
yes, I can. You are being Reginald Barclay rn, who no one liked, who was addicted to interacting with holo-people, who had ISSUES.
The first episode of Star Trek EVER, the Cage, follows the Talosians, a race of people who became so reliant on entertainment via the creation of illusion that they lost the ability to do ANYTHING for themselves in real life because the illusion was COMFORTING AND PREDICTABLE.
Don't play with me doodoohead I know more about star trek than you do

This scene lives rent free in my head now, bye
