My calligraphy posts went really popular recently so I thought maybe you’d want to see some Vulcan calligraphy my 10yo sister did ?

"Koss" (T’Pol’s husband)

"Nora" (her name)

Her name again

"Ozhika" (Vulcan word for "logic")

We used to do that a lot then memory loss walked in… I really should re-learn Vulcan conlang and calligraphy.

when I watched the plotline in Enterprise where the Vulcans have a military and were gearing up for conflict I was like "ok thats stupid but whatever, its only in one show so I can ignore it, and its 2005 and they're doing a thing about American politics, so liberties must be taken, etc etc" but apparently Vulcans have a military in other shows too?? That is SO. STUPID!!!!!!!!!

Literally how does Sarek's "I'm disowning you for joining a military" thing make ANY sense in a world where Vulcan has a military?

It's not that I don't like hypocrisy in my worldbuilding, I love it, but this feels more like... Trek writers having difficulty imagining a society that functions radically different from our own. If Vulcans are supposed to be an allegory for a idyllic peaceful human future, even if you subvert that allegory, it has to still be believableeeee.

For ex. I was so down with the Enterprise storyline when it was just "Vulcans are engaging in morally questionable espionage." That was fun. That was believable. That didn't make them feel like they're increasingly turning into just humans with pointy ears, in-universe AND in story function.

Vulcanposting: the ADHD Vulcan

Meditate. Quiet your mind, they say. Does that really work? Do other Vulcans ever get to the point where they have no thoughts? Or do they just have one thought over and over? Maybe they do that and then it turns meaningless the way a word loses its meaning if you hear it twenty five times in a row. Can I do that? My foot hurts. I am a Vulcan, there is no pain. What if I said "there is no pain" over and over until it became meaningless? Would that make the thoughts go away or would it just make the pain get worse? Quiet your thoughts. Quiet your body. Don't fidget. Why is this so hard for me to learn? Every other Vulcan can do it. Or what if they can't? What if everyone is pretending this works because Surak said it was a good idea but actually no one knows how to do it and they're all faking it? No, that's illogical. My nose itches. Teacher says if I figure out how to do this I can make itching and pain go away completely. I just have to figure out how to have no thoughts. Or just one thought. What if I had 2? I could cycle them. Would that work? How does having no thoughts help you control pain and itching anyway, that's illogical! Wouldn't you have to at least have the thought "I want to control the pain"? This is why I'm never going to be a good Vulcan. Maybe I should move off planet when I grow up. Find a colony of humans. I bet they wouldn't even be able to tell I don't know how to meditate.

The lyrics "you'll have to stop the world just to stop the feeling" are like, MEANT for Vulcan characters. Thank you for this Chappell Roan
