Take me away and let's boldly go into space

Just keepin' all Star Trek stuff together. I'm watching TOS and TNG currently, might throw some general space and sci fi stuff into the mix. They/she, adult, queer. My main is @celestial-bat I'm trying my best to be inclusive so no bigorry here ok. No acephobia, biphobia, transphobia, racism or whatever else

EVERY fucking stupid liberals university in the star trek future their fucking student sketch comedy group OF COURSE has at least one Vulcan and it's like their thing where they're like "haha I bet you wouldn't expect a VULCAN in an IMPROV group!!!!!" as if this hasn't become such a fucking tired cliche like literally since 2063 every fucking comedy show has the token Vulcan to be the straight man. you're doing nothing. call me when you guys make an effort to actually include tellarites in the writing room instead of confining them to punch lines. and to be honest with you guys your Vulcan isn't even that good. his performance was highly derivative of T'min's work in the big bang theory 3 (the third big bang yheory. they make a lot of sitcom sequels in the future)

The last thing you said cannot be true because star trek is supposed to be a utopian future.

[leolaroot]

star trek is very demonstrably not a utopian future it's a broken society playing at paradise. we see hints of this earlier in the post when I mention university improv comedy groups

James T Kirk explained in 3 sentences, ladies and gentlemen.

[gunstreet]

It’s very interesting to me that Kirk actually begins his career as a command officer firmly in the square of lawful good. He’s a rule-follower. He believes in the chain of command. Comparatively, Spock is much more of a neutral good character throughout the series: he will do things by the book when he thinks that will do the most good— which is often, otherwise he would not last long in Starfleet— however, when he feels disobeying the rules is the more moral choice, he does it without hesitation. But over time you watch Kirk’s frustration with those occasions where the chain of command fails, times where he makes the ‘correct’ choice and it doesn’t work, times he pushes his orders to the absolute limit, crossing boundaries to do what his instincts tell him to do. And it makes him question things more. He and Spock are alike in that they both believe that there’s no such thing as an ‘acceptable’ loss, if that loss is a fellow officer.

This is Kirk doing what he knows he has to do in order to honour Spock’s wishes after his death. The only thing. He stands to gain nothing— and lose everything, because he understands that he will be court martialed and stripped of his command— but in his mind he’s already lost everything. Spock is gone, and they’re retiring his beloved ship. The only thing he has to gain at this point (because he doesn’t know Spock’s body has been resurrected), is the knowledge that he’s doing the right thing. And the choice is really as easy as it is in the frames above— because he knows it’s the choice Spock would make in his place.

I love it when people criticize kirk for not stopping bones and spock fighting, like that's his favorite show?? Like god forbid a man wants to see the girls fight. (And maybe kiss thereafter)

[takemetotheenterprise]

Kirk knows that for Bones and Spock having regular fights is enrichment. It keeps them happy and healthy,it supports their longevity

[respocked]

i think that tos is remembered as the uplifting and silly trek and by this kirk is kind of often characterized as mostly optimistic and joyful. and he is to an extent, but if you watch the show he is also constantly like wallowing in angst and staring into distances and being crushed by his responsibility. kirk's tortured as fuck. and partially because of this janeway is a better "kirk reprise" than archer (when both of these shows sort of aimed to be tos again, with more freedom and less tying up in starfleet rules). well she's also better because she is just better written, and because the "all american-nes" of kirk was like not even that relevant to why he was a good character and they really overcorrected with archer with it and the masculinity performance both. but also because for voyager they really leaned into the angst and the torture! janeway is also staring into the distance. janeway is assuming eleven tortured poses before breakfast and that's why she's a true kirk-type, not just her confidence and devotion of her crew she gets
