The tumblrest sentence I have ever seen

[respocked]

some of star trek characters are so vacuum sealed into their clothes that tumblr automatically flags them as soon as i try to post. and by some, i mean that it happened four times: to t'pol, to seven of nine, to a crewman wearing the tos motion picture uniform, and to a sulliban from star trek enterprise, photographed from behind, flat-fuck-fridaying under a door. this selection gives us a somewhat of an across-the-franchise overview of the the look.

[respocked]

the sulliban are really good, honestly. they wear these boat-necked gymnast onesies which really do absolutely nothing for the actors and when they're naughty their boss takes their genes away. they also talk to mysterious people from the future. you'd think this would be really relevant but it doesn't come up much because everybody in star trek enterprise talks to people from the future, and some of them are covered in even more unflattering outfits, like crewman daniels, who has a shirt made out of pipes.

[respocked]

there's also this episode when archer finds out that sulliban across the galaxy including children are opressed and put in detention camps because they're all assumed to be a part of the gene-altering troupe. which i always felt like was trying to talk about Arabs in USA but i'm kind of afraid to bring this up because then we have to ask the crucial question of "did they name them sulliban because they're the space taliban?" and who among us is ready for that?

[ichaserabbits]

They were named after the Taliban but not exactly for the reasons you'd think (but it is Rick Berman's fault of course)

like literally if i didn’t want to see some weird nonsense i wouldn’t be consuming scifi

[clementine-kesh]

“ohh this episode is about meeting a bunch of dinosaurs who developed space travel and left earth to go live on the other side of the galaxy isn’t that crazy?! isn’t that silly?!” sure yeah maybe a little but by focusing on that but you’re missing the narrative reason for it which is to provide a starting point to explore religious authoritarianism and the production of scientific knowledge

[mylittleredgirl]

just a spoonful of [nonsense] helps the [critical thinking about uncomfortable social and structural problems that are such a fundamental part of the background radiation of our lives that we can't see them] go down

[clementine-kesh]

this is the meanest thing anyone’s ever said to me. apologize to star trek: voyager season 3 episode 23 distant origin right now

#this is the star trek i wanna see#like when somebody asked gene roddenberry why piccard was bald#because wouldn’t they have found a cure for male pattern baldness by then?#and he was like ‘no by the 24th century no one will care’#i wanna see that attitude with disability and neurodiversity#it’s not that we’ll have a magic cure for everything#there’ll always be something new#but disabilities and neurodiversity will be celebrated and seen as part of the norm#it will be accomodated#so blind people can serve in star fleet#and so can people in wheelchairs and autistic people and people with prosthetics and people with chronic illnesses (via @hunterinabrowncoat)
