The snw body swap episode definitely had a little bit of that ridiculousness I’ve been missing from most new star trek, I hope they do more of it
i allow myself one suicide joke a month because a well-placed “i’m going to kill myself” can be REALLY funny but like for real yall, if you’re suicidal or depressed in any capacity, or even if you aren’t, if you make suicide jokes constantly your brain will internalize it and you will actually want to kill yourself. which you don’t want to do. and if you stop making suicide jokes then you will feel better. same with any kind of self deprecation— stop doing it and you will start to feel better. i’ve been suicidal at several points in my life and i can guarantee you from personal experience that it fucking works. stop making kms jokes every day and your life will improve. and other people get uncomfortable when you make kms jokes constantly. be nicer to yourself
The fact that there’s a third guy with them makes even more obvious that Kirk and Spock are staying so unnecessarily close to each other lol

Sometimes a family is a starship captain with a death wish, a dad-joke cracking commander with marvelous facial structure, a severely telepathic space pixie, a space troll who cooks, a Serious grandpa who pretends like he doesn’t tell bad puns on the sly because he’s Serious, an underappreciated Handsome Boy, a history nerd with a car fetish, an angry smart lady who would LIKE EVERYONE TO STOP TOUCHING HER STUFF THANK YOU VERY MUCH, an asshole opera singer, and a recovering former cult member that everyone has a crush on
“I’m sorry, I’ve gotta be honest, I didn’t join Starfleet to get in phaser fights. I signed up to explore, to be out in space making new discoveries, and peaceful, diplomatic solutions. That’s boldly going. And you know what? I’d love to be in a string quartet. I loved that when Riker was on the Enterprise he was out there jamming on the trombone, and catching love disease, and acting in plays, and meeting his identical transporter clone Thomas. That stuff may not seem as cool as what you guys do, but it’s Starfleet. All the way.”

I really really want the new star treks like strange new worlds to include some just bat shit crazy episodes. Like I, Mudd from tos where they confuse androids into destruction by dancing around to no music. Or the tribble episode. Or the ds9 episode where they have a full on casino heist, or start a baseball team. Or the captain proton episode on voyager where Janeway has to pretend to be queen arachnia. Like. Give me some episodes like that
fake star trek ads for class!

Star Trek! The original series, the next generation, voyager, deep space 9, lower decks, and strange new worlds. Hopefully I'll get around to the others some day. Sometimes I'll post something else. Let's build a world we can be proud of!
