the least realistic thing about star trek is that starfleet uniforms don’t have pockets and nobody complains about it

My instinct is to agree with this, but like, when I really think about it…

No money, no credit cards, identification is all vocal/fingerprints/retinal, so no wallet.

Again, doors are voice activated, or just unlocked by entering a code. No keys.

Communication devices are tiny and stick onto clothing starting in Next Gen. TOS had bulkier communication that they carried around or kept in, like, packs and stuff, so the arguments for pockets is a little more valid, and if I remember correctly, those costumes did have pockets, tho I could be wrong about that. But anything post TNG, the point is moot anyway.

Tricorders and phasers are really the only thing anyone’s carrying around, and that’s usually on away missions where they’d be bring their packs/holsters or just have them out. I mean, who wants to stick a phaser in their pocket?

So, yeah. There’s not much little stuff people need to carry around everywhere. And if they are preparing for a longer journey or want to bring bulkier things, well…just bring a bag. It fits more anyway.

what if i find a cool rock and want to take it home with me

fair-itself

Every time a member of the USS Enterprise has found a cool rock and taken it home, it has resulted in eleven deaths, six temporal displacements, the holodecks breaking again, and somebody getting turned into a lizard. Pockets are a privilege, not a right.

There was an episode of SeaQuest (rememebr that show?) where one of the crewmembers picked a flower during an away mission investigating the disappearance of a bunch of scientists, and it turned out the flower was part of a carnivorous mutant that had eaten all its researchers, and the plant tried to take over the entire ship until they drowned it.

Away missions are like entering fareieland: you never bring back more than you took with you, ever.

No pockets.

in the beginning, Marvel events were spaced by twenty four weeks. then twelve, then six, then every two weeks. the last one, with Ulysses, was a week. in four days we could be seeing a line-wide push every eight hours until they are coming every four minutes. we should witness a double event within seven days
