Never turn your back on a Breen, or a writer after they’ve given you a sweet, wholesome episode.

Public support I can buy. Housing first, Medicare for all, cannabis legalization all poll incredibly well. The government doing it, regardless of who’s in power? That’s fantasy. Lol. I’d be more likely to believe we got transporters, or the Elon musk has a replicator and the rest of us aren’t allowed to use it. Lol.

DharmaCurious , 8 months ago to Star Trek in NYCC Starfleet Academy confirmation

I’ve been trying to find a confirmation on the century it’ll be set in for forever, but I suck at finding these things. Is 32nd century setting confirmed? I’m genuinely hoping it is. So much unexplored territory there.

Sept. 2024. You’re right. Just a bit less than a year.

The scariest part, though, is that sanctuary cities almost seem like a better alternative than our current approach to the housing crisis of “lol fucking die” :/

Honestly, star trek hasn’t always hit the nail on the head for the circumstances, but in this case, they got the vibe just perfectly.

It’s a good time to watch ds9. We’re only a year away from the Bell riots. ;)

Clearly, there are 5 lights. I don’t know how you could be so wrong about this.

DharmaCurious , 9 months ago to Star Trek in Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x04 "Something Borrowed, Something Green"

Oh that’s absolutely perfect. I’d love that at the end of this season or the start of the next.

DharmaCurious , 9 months ago to Work Reform in there is Indeed a problem

Poor people should just simply try working for their father’s company for a year and then taking a VP position at a small fortune 500. I don’t understand why they won’t try that, and pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Tsk tsk tsk.

DharmaCurious , 9 months ago to Work Reform in Wreck the economy because it only works for the billionaire class.

What are the odds this fella doesn’t get CIA’d soon?

DharmaCurious , 9 months ago to Star Trek in Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" and 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee"

Because they’re grown now, and have asked star fleet not to use their image in any promotional material. They’re still salty about being abandoned.

DharmaCurious , 10 months ago to Star Trek in DS9 S2 "Second Sight"

I haven’t watched that episode in a looooong time, so I can’t really contribute too much to the conversation. But the vibe I got (and I may be misremembering) was that Sisko was trying to let her know she could be that person, if she wanted to be. She could be Fenna, because she was Fenna. A sort of “the [Fenna] was in you all along” type moment.

I’m mainly posting here because DS9 is my absolute favorite series (close second is ENT), and I’ll happily contribute to any ds9 talks. Lol. Is there a community for ds9? I haven’t found out, but that could just be lemmy search shenanigans.

DharmaCurious OP , 10 months ago to Star Trek in Enterprise era new trek show?

Ooh, I like the idea of animated. And I don’t understand prequel hate. I love a good prequel. I’d also love ST legacy. But we’re all on streaming services now, it’s not like they can’t find a time slot for it. Give us all the trek! Paramount+ would make billions. Lol.

DharmaCurious OP , 10 months ago to Star Trek in Enterprise era new trek show?

Right? I mean, I want desperately for the events of the last episode to be retconned, but even without that, just another crew in that same era would be great. It’s a time rife with opportunity.

Honestly, I’d even love a series set around the time of first contact. Zefram Cochrane, early Vulcan diplomats, humanity’s first ever foray outside of our solar system… God that would be cool.

DharmaCurious OP , 10 months ago to Star Trek in Enterprise era new trek show?

Honestly, that sounds like my ideal show. I’ve always wanted a show that gave us something outside of Starfleet, and I’ve also always wanted a show that showed us a little more of earth (cannot wait for a sf academy). A freighter based show could us both. Frequent trips to earth to pick up supplies, space without the protection of the military’s flagship, or the protection of being an important military space station. Tight knit crew, likely family members and all the drama and story that comes with that. God, that would be an awesome show.
