- Comment on Hottest Star Trek character? 3 days ago:
Presumably it would be the various Tholians we’ve seen over the course of the franchise, as they require a temperature around 480 Kelvin to survive.

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

- Comment on ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Series And Graphic Novel Nominated For Hugo Awards 2 weeks ago:
I cannot recommend “Warp Your Own Way” enough to any fans of the series. Calling it a graphic novel fails to account for the fact that it is a choose your own adventure style story which makes perfect sense in the context of the story being told. An absolute master craft of the comics format. Also, it’s funny and the art is good.

Much like Captain Bateson and the USS Bozeman, we’re back, baby!
The PRO canon connections got derailed by LDS and seasonal depression, but seeing that the Greatest Trek podcast was about to overtake how far I got has me in it to win it. My plan is to get it done before SNW drops.

- Comment on Season 3 Teaser Trailer | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2 weeks ago:
In this case, yes. The character Kirk was fighting in the gif you posted was surgically disguised as an Andorian to disrupt the diplomatic talks regarding the dilithium mining world, Coridan, in the episode “Journey to Babel”.
The Andorian in the screen grab in your second comment, is an Andorian.

Not to be that guy (I am 100% that guy), but that’s an Orion.

Ah, that was my second guess.

Did you mean “Yesteryear” for TAS? “Spock Amok” is an SNW episode.

That headline might as well read, “Suprise: That Khan podcast thing was actually in production.”

I would appreciate an explanation as to what solarpunk is.
- Comment on Canon Connections: Star Trek: Section 31 2 months ago:
I wonder if our boi Ash Tyler had something to do with that when he covered up what happened to Discovery (and, I guess, to Leland). Maybe he decided to remove Georgiou from that whole situation and falsify a record saying she disappeared some time later.
That would make more sense than almost anything that happened in the film.
I also wonder if Ashy T. is still involved with S31 at this point - the man’s a Klingon, so he’s got the life span for it.
I think that if Ash Tyler was involved in S31, they might be a bit more subtle. Also, he probably wouldn’t have been on board with calling the director or handler or whatever Jamie Lee Curtis was supposed to be “Control.”

I don’t think we watched the same film.

- Comment on Tholian Expansion coming to Star Trek Ascendancy 4 months ago:
In the preview of the ships, it claims they models are based on what was seen in the remaster of “The Tholian Web”, but the models shown look more like a Tholian carrier from STO. I’m assuming that what’s in the preview is just the fleet tokens – for anyone who hasn’t played the game, each faction has three larger fleet tokens which indicate a number of their base ships, usually with some unique ability for each fleet – and their base ships will look like what was seen in the show.
Also, one more faction to go. I’m going to bet Orions, but I’d love it if they did a Terran Empire expansion introducing the mirror universe to the game.

- Comment on B’Elanna’s stance on afterlife. 4 months ago:
B’Elanna had an experience, that at the time she very strongly believed to be real, but she’s also a person of science. I feel like it would be out of character for her to not have some questions, even after her journey to Gre’thor.
In “Tapestry”, when Q tells him, “I told you. You’re dead. This is the afterlife, and I’m God,” what is Picard’s response? “You are not God.”
B’Elanna’s in a similar situation. She’s informed that she’s on the barge of the dead, but is that necessarily divine? Perhaps Gre’thor is an alternate dimension, or something like inside of the Nexus. Fek’lhr could be a powerful being, not wholly dissimilar from Q. In “Homefront”, Worf claims that Klingons killed their gods for being “more trouble than they were worth,” perhaps that was more than just Klingon myth. We know that aliens visited Earth and were perceived to be deities. The Greek pantheon in “Who Mourns for Adonias”, Kukulkan was believed to be the Quetzalcoatl as per “How Sharper than a Serpent’s Tooth”, and even Satan from Christian mythology was the being Lucien depicted in “The Magicks of Megas-Tu”.
Given everything B’Elanna should be aware of regarding the nature of the galaxy, blind faith in an afterlife, even one she’s ostensibly experienced first hand, does seem like a big ask.
- Comment on Preview ‘Star Trek: Lower Decks’ Episode 507 With New Images From “Fully Dilated” 4 months ago:
So, is Rutherford growing a beard because he’s also trying to copy Beardler’s path to success as opposed to copying an alternate version of himself?
