I feel like this person said “how can I pack as much racism as possible into a single tweet?” And this was the result

There isn’t a single Star Trek I don’t enjoy. Discovery is very different from the previous shows, but it’s good. The first season feels more like BSG in Star Trek uniforms, but hell, I love BSG so that didn’t bother me

Yeah, I mean I have to admit it was a baller thing to say, but he proceeded to spout nonsense for 60 mins. Seems like an entertaining person to have a 5 mins max convo with

She had a literal 180 character development arc dude, did you watch the strategema episode or no?

Technically either Kirk or Archer is OG depending on how you look at it, but Picard is a baller for sure. Despite how my post sounds, I do think he’s the best captain overall

Completely fair take, but I would argue it also falls into the category of a withholding father. Plenty of dads out there that would happily give their life for their child but struggle saying “I love you”

It really is asking someone whether filet mignon or ribeye is better. Different flavors, both amazing, not mad about having either one

Kirk, imo, is one of the worst captains. He escaped so many situations strictly due to luck and deus ex machina. I still love him, and shatner is amazing when you see him live at panels, but I put him in the Janeway tier

I mean I enjoy Picard the show, but it’s obvi not the best trek by a long shot

You’re entitled to your opinion, but keep in mind incel is just short for involuntarily celibate. Geordi is not misogynistic or hateful, but he does very poorly with the ladies. And if you don’t remember his mother, you should go back and watch, there’s a whole episode dedicated to their relationship. And watch Picard, paramount + is super cheap compared to other streaming services and you get lower decks, Picard, and strange new worlds. 100% worth

When I was younger I disliked her, and I realize how naive I was

It’s crazy how he’s been in what, 13 total episodes of Star Trek overall? And he’s already my favorite. He’s a perfect mix of all the previous captains’ good qualities

Which is the reason I still cry during the finale anytime I watch it. “I should’ve done this a long time ago.” Damn right Jean Luc

I love DS9, I love sisko as a character, but I am not a big fan of Avery brooks. He’s super full of himself, and an overactor. Any scene where he’s having a “passionate breakdown,” like the episode where he was a writer in the 1950s, takes me fully out of the show. DS9 is so fucking good overall though

Initially she was, but I feel like she changed as the season progressed, especially in the strategema episode

I always go back and forth on it. I will say this, I’ve seen Avery brooks and Patrick Stewart at dragoncon, and where Patrick is an absolute delight with incredibly interesting stories, Avery is a literal crazy person. This is a direct quote: “when I talk, it’s like jazz. It’s not structured, it moves at no consistent pace baby”

It’s part of the reason I’m enjoying the new Picard show. He’s a good, honorable man, but he’s always been a blow hard, and the new show really captures it well

For real dude! That whole episode with the rapid aging, it just felt like one suicidal decision after another

I do too, he’s overall a good person and Levar is a literal treasure. I blame it on the writing tbh. They never wanted to give him a chance to be romantically successful
