i think kirk deserves a lot more credit for keeping a cool head based on some of the nonsense he had to deal with throughout the original

like fuckkkk i sent my men on a routine mission to an uninhabited planet and the fucking wizard got them. yeah he lives in a haunted castle and his shapeshifting cat friend brainwashed them into doing her bidding. yeah i fucked the cat lady to figure out the source of their power and then when i destroyed it they turned out to be some sort of blue chicken maybe???? god damnit dude i better not get sent into another evil dimension or the past or some other bullshit again when i get back

[paperbackwriter-kat]

I was rewatching The Enemy Within and all I could think about is how this was literally Kirk’s headspace throughout the whole episode:

podracer Sebulba notably absent from swift-kelce wedding attendees............

#contemporary scifi costuming is going to look painfully 2020's in a few years

Already does. In Star Trek Picard S2 when they went back in time to 2024, none of the characters had to change their outfits because their 25th century fashion was just like, normal jackets t-shirts and trousers in a variety of black, grey and brown fabrics. A stark contrast to early TNG, where - while everything looked painfully 80's - the non-uniform attire was all fun shapes and textures that didn't actually resemble off the shelf clothes as far as I'm aware*

*(I say this because i missed the 80's by a couple of years)

[milkywayan]

I wrote my thesis in fashion school about scifi in the 60s (with 1/3rd being dedicated to TOS), and the amazing TOS outfits are thanks to William Theiss who managed to use the extremely limited budget they had to make amazing costumes, using things like cheap table decoration and tacky 60s decor to craft insanely cool scifi outfits

Even the uniforms are AMAZING from a tailor perspective!

They didn't want ugly zippers to show so the closures of the uniforms are in the seam of the raglan sleeve!!!!

In all the new adaptations they are lazy and don't do raglan and put the zippers in the back and it looks shit

Not even to mention the incredible lines of the womens uniforms!!!

Like look how smartly the lines for the pattern go, to not just have boring darts in places! These costumes STILL look futuristic!

You could not even see this on 1960s TVs!

I'm feral about this btw

[calendae-creations]

I don't have the dress or the book with me, but years ago I used the pattern in one of the early Starfleet Manual books to make a skant. At first, the weird retrofuturistic pattern piece shapes were kinda hard to wrap my mind around. But the more I worked on it, the more I came to appreciate not just the commitment to creating a fresh new aesthetic, but also the practicality of it! The way the pieces are shaped makes it pretty easy to adjust the pattern to fit different proportions as needed

the hottest thing a guy can be is barely conscious on the floor while someone lifts his head up by the hair so that you can see his glazed out eyes and the blood running down his face
