In a world that constantly feels like it's on the brink of change before it crumbles away under our feet—in a world where representation of lesbians (and fucking everyone else who isn't a white heterosexual male), is secondary... This small bit of news comes as a huge relief to the soul. Thank you, Jeri, thank you Voyager, thank you fans and writers and directors and producers. Thank you, Kate Mulgrew and thank you J/7-ers. You've been and continue to be a ray of warm light in the craggy climate of these times. As it was written in one of my favorite fics, and feels appropriate for the world we live in, "wartimes were wartimes" —only to be made better by the comrades across the planet working alongside one another. If that doesn't feel Starfleet, then what does? 😏
