"You take the yellow egg... the story ends, you wake up on Talax and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red egg... you stay on Voyager, and I show you how deep the leola root goes."

weird kick to be on, but at least I'm on one

DS9 fans waiting for Benjamin Sisko to come back

"Star Trek shouldn't use current slang"

I can't help feeling like there is a double standard re: criticism of Starfleet Academy where any negative critique must be strictly literary and limited to the text but the positive critiques are allowed to hinge on the good intentions of the authors and how earnest they are in their homages

look I'm not going to pretend this meme makes 100% sense but the haters are definitely struggling

"Come, Let's Away"

or just watch the show? I'm sure it's adequately explained at some point

Touching me, touchin' you:

I WOULD KILL for great negative analysis of Starfleet Academy truly I would. Give me criticism that engages my fucking brain, not endless refrains of "Avery Brooks didn't show up" or "Kassidy's kid wasn't on the family tree" or "it didn't feel like Star Trek to me because it's a new style of show.

I’m not saying people have to like Starfleet Academy. I’ve seen thoughtful, detailed critiques in my comments and elsewhere that engage with its writing, tone, or thematic direction. That’s healthy fandom discourse. That’s great. What makes me sad (1/2)

i showed this to leona and she said "how it feels to chew 5 gum"

"Ops Station"

Picard didn't have a choice since this was the only dress uniform variant, so the haters aren't mad that Jay-Den wore a skant, they're mad that he had the option and *chose* the skant

Guile... Guinan... Guilenan

The main computer on the Galaxy class isn't really an AGI (except when the writers want to make an episode out of that) but it's also not an LLM, it's something more in between, but not even architecturally just conceptually

- Data isn't an LLM - The holodeck is trained ethically and it isn't an ecological disaster - Even in universe, everyone pretty much agrees that misusing the holodeck to create sexy likenesses of your colleagues is bad, that's not some gotcha

I've written a lot about how Data is not an LLM, but I'm also going to stop capitulating when people say the Enterprise computer and holodeck are the future of genAI, because they're really not...

I know the cast and crew and the reviewers were really excited about it but I'm a bit shocked at the overall lack of spoiler containment for SFA episode 5

Ffiona Maw, 44, has rarely sat upright in a chair with her feet on the floor, instead hunching and twisting into the shape of either a pretzel, a cashew or a gargoyle.

Game of Thrones was high budget and 13 episodes per season and was still good so it's not a low budget that makes a show good, it's something else entirely

So many people don’t want Trek to be good, they just want it to make them feel the way it did when they were younger. Thats been at the core of every “critique” of modern Trek.

(I am so sick of this discourse, Prophets help me...) The Pitt isn't good because it's low budget, it's just good. Beyond a certain point the budget is largely orthogonal to whether a show is good. Star Trek doesn't need to be low budget and 24 episodes per season, it just needs to be good.
