    If Hemmer is a recurring guest star then why does his actor appear as a principal lead in the main titles?

    I must admit I'm having a bit of a hard time with T'Pring and Spock having such a close and involved relationship at all between the time of the "less than a marriage but more than a betrothal" when they were seven years old, and the time of the koon-ut-kal-if-fee (or however that's spelled). It's the only thing about this series that nags at me. But I'm just trying to smile and nod and roll with it. Maybe something will happen that causes it to cool off and Spock focuses more on duty while T'Pring stays close to home for Vulcan matters, so then they don't see each other again for years.

    That's a good agent.
    After the last episode I expect that Spock will strive to embrace more of his Vulcan self, which will make him more distant to T'Pring, who has been at least willing to explore it, or tolerate it. Spock seems less willing to do so.

    I mean the cracks in the foundation of their relationship are already apparent. T'Pring has some anti-Human prejudices that she's trying to sublimate, and Spock is unwilling to put his relationship with T'Pring ahead of his duty to Starfleet. Spock is also developing feelings for Christine that both he and T'Pring are aware of but in denial about. This would already be a deeply troubled relationship even without "Amok Time" establishing their final fate.

    Indeed, also note that there are no credits over the beginning of the episode, where credits like that used to be placed.

    It's awesome! But hopefully by that time in the future we'll all just see it as "marriage."

    So there's a couple that my boss knows. The one with XX chromosomes is non-binary, presents as female and uses they/them pronouns. The one with XY chromosomes is non-binary, presents as male, and uses they/them pronouns. Is this a gay relationship in your opinion?

    I've heard people call relationships like that "queer.". I think that's potentially useful since it preserves the idea that this relationship isn't exactly a traditional one.

    Still, not my call. What do they call it?

    He’s also married to Lucie Arnaz, the daughter of Lucille Ball. Since there’s an “L. Ball” signature on the Scorch, will Lucy be Spock’s next surprise heretofore unmentioned relative?

    I see no one was able to show a canon source that supports their opinions that Vulcans, generally, do it all the time.
    I'm curious why people still choose to believe this in the absence of any canonical evidence for it and the presence of canonical evidence against it. It's like saying all Enterprises generally have 4 warp nacelles :D
