I’m going to follow up with a thought here.
Christopher = Christ like.
If opher mean like… Then who is Nust in Nus’ culture? Their Christ?
Also I like how that parallels between the preferred names… Chris and Nus vs Christ and Nust.

Stood out for me because Im a Christopher.
- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 2 weeks ago:
Already some amazing points here, but I will add one thing:
No matter how utopian your empire becomes, those who grow up in utopia do not have their guard up watching for evil in every corner. The Star Wars flipping back and forth from Republic to Empire over the millennia makes sense.
The federation existed for barely a millennia in its first incarnation. A fall of a galactic empire makes sense. Rebuilding it makes for good story.
Especially, and I can’t stress this enough, when it is a parallel to the world we live in. Trek has always been a way to mirror events and teach moral lessons… But most of all, hope.

The teens arent vapid socialites and theres enough Trek Universe mixed in that it really doesn’t align with the typical teen drama.

This, very well put. I’ve been struggling to vocalise why I like this to folks and I think you nailed it.
Its a different message for a different era. And one we need. Too many are looking at the near and potentially bleak future, we need them to realise that hope can still lay beyond that.

This show is one part Lower Decks, one part Prodigy, one part Discovery, and a dash of SNW… I dig it. Excited to see where it goes.

- Comment on How do I feel comfortable/safe going outside by myself after being so used to have parent(s) be with me outside most of my life? 1 month ago:
This is exactly my problem with BCs stupid laws. Kids can’t be without their parents until 11.
ELEVEN!
Christ. How do they ever learn independence when they spend all of the most crucial years of their development forcibly tied to the parents hip?
I was allowed to go to the corner store at five. By ten I was completely independent and mowing lawns as an afterschool job.

- Comment on Been a long time since I smoked but if I opened the door to my fireplace and tossed in a kilo of pot and just let the smoke fill up the house will everyone in my house get high? 1 month ago:
Fireplaces have a flu. If you close it the smoke has no where to go but the house.
The whole idea still smacks of dumbfuckery, don’t get me wrong; but its not as much of a lost cause as you’re thinking.
