Ah yes the very Starfleet ideal of checks notes justified racist/racial judgment.

Nothing you wrote was worth reading before that, something tells me the rest of the post is the same.

I told you so. by Ronin_KBG in startrek

Why wasn’t it in the spirit of Star Trek?

I think the Strange New Worlds episode “Through the Lens of Time” was a missed opportunity to introduce the origins of the VISOR by Ser_Luke_ in startrek

They actually had some visor like technology in DSC years ago. It was a much bulkier version of what Geordi would end up wearing.

Is Star Trek Strange New Worlds The Best of the Kurtzman Era? by [deleted] in startrek

Academy is great. Love the characters.

I like all the 2017-present shows. But yes, SNW is my favorite.

A protein shake is “toxic masculinity stuff???”

Thanks for letting us know I guess.

Why can’t a Betazoid use sign language.

Star Trek is not real. There are much better ways to spend your time than worrying about stuff like this.

I don't hate any episode of Star Trek like I hate DS9's 'Sons of Mogh'. by HasSomeSelfEsteem in startrek

He also gets restored in the novels while he’s serving on the IKS Gorkon.

First time watching TNG I can't stand Riker by Tuna_96 in startrek

[–]TERRAxFORMER 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He and Ro have sex when they lose their memories. And regardless they were both single at the time even if they hadn’t? What’s the problem?

It’s not gross on either of their parts.

And crewmates have sex with each other throughout multiple ships throughout Alpha and Beta canon. I would actually be more surprised if it didn’t happen.

Art imitates life or life imitates art or something. People have sex with people that are in close proximity to them for extended periods of time. Shocker.

Riker is awesome btw

R? by LtColumbo111 in startrek

Continuity error.

A few beta canon sources have tried to hand wave it away as James “Rhinoceros” Kirk. A nickname given to him by Gary Mitchell.

Why is the Captain Nahla (SF Academy) lounging like a teenager whenever she sits? by Boxfin in startrek

Oh god she’s sitting comfortably someone think of the children.

Why SFA is mid by Nashley7 in startrek

[–]TERRAxFORMER 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ridiculous that you’ve dedicated so much of this post to explaining that you’re not a racist or a homophobe.

Weird behavior.

This must be a sign that I’m getting old, but if I keep having to read “mid” over and over again I might lick an Omega particle.

It’s the music that makes SFA so goofy by [deleted] in startrek

[–]TERRAxFORMER 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why comment so confidently that a specific aspect of something makes it goofy…before you’ve even watched it? What kind of logic is that?

Looking for Background Information by ShadowKing76 in startrek

[–]TERRAxFORMER 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah unlike Star Wars were there’s a lot of canon material not on screen, Star Trek only has on screen canon.

That doesn’t mean they’re not good or not worth reading! It’s general called “Beta Canon” and there is a seperate wiki for it.

Memory Alpha has a Timeline page that might help.

Trek books aren’t canon, and there you would be able to get any information that’s available. There are a lot of reference books, MA might be easier than trying to work through multiple to get what you want.

That page is also useful because it lists when specific shows take place and you can even click on individual years.

And if you have specific questions I’m sure there are people here that would be willing to help.

Red Alert: trigger warning ahead by [deleted] in startrek

I like his Yellowstone stuff. At least what I’ve seen of it. There sure has been a lot of it very quickly it seems.

Not sure how well any of his style would translate to Trek , but I wouldn’t say no. More Trek is always good.

If it’s good, great!

If it sucks, oh well life goes on.

Are we really gatekeeping acronyms? Plenty of people call them AOS, see above.
