One day, I will become a captain just to ruin each of your lives. That is a promise.

I listened to an audio version of this on my phone, so I have mixed feelings about this -

Back in the day, #StarTrek tackled important social issues - like the scourge of hippies walking around half naked and calling you “Herbert” when you yell at them to put on some clothes.

So what’s the rest of your plan? Running around with no pants on and staging DOT fights?

“It’s like looking for a neddle in a haystack, made of needles.”
Wouldn’t that make it easier to find a needle? Just saying. I guess we’ve found something that Genesis is bad at, making analogies.

Rewatching episode 2 of #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy. It seems pretty clear that the Betazoid President was there to “Say no” to the Federation. Presumably the public negotiations in front of the students were meant to convince the voters at home on Betazed that rejoining the Federation was a bad idea. There are also subtle, little hints that Admiral Vance is talking to Federation officials off screen. This makes the final offer which the Betazoid President can’t refuse more plausible and makes the episode work better for me.

I don’t always enjoy the teen comedy aspects of #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy but I do love that there is a giant blue alien drill sergeant with a British accent around to heap abuse on these kids whenever they get too annoying.

I don’t know what planet this guy’s from but I want to hear his band play.
