People are complaining about how Tilly was able to finish the race. Fine. I would posit that she is a HUMAN taking part of an ALIEN race. How do we know how each metabolizes water, etc? I think to attack her on grounds that she is overweight doesn't hold any substance. I think we would...

Robau was a badass. Looking out for his crew without any hesitation. He was one of a few great examples of a captain. He knew the situation and what would happen. His intelligence and instincts prepared everyone around him. Third best captain after 1) Sisko, 2) Picard.

I will admit that the one part of the episode that I had to suspend disbelief was that the Starfleet Uniform Code Of Justice was a book and not on a Padd. That took it from a 10 to a 9 :biggrin:

It may have been a while lol.

You know, for a long while I have really enjoyed your critiques of all the episodes. I wholly agree with your review here and assessment. There is more to Trek than pew pew and space battles. I just wanted to let you know.

So this episode really reminds me of the core of TOS. I really don't care where you are on the political scale, this episode has a lot of food for thought. It is allegorical in so many ways to so many issues. But I think at the end of the day, what matters is who a person is and if they are a...

40. Fell in love with TNG. I really loved the optimism and humanistic message that the show brought forth. Star Trek encouraged me to pursue a career in engineering even though I could have gone a different route and played baseball at a Division 1 college level for Old Dominion University...

Holy fucking shit. Your Uncle and I are kindred spirits. I wanted to be a "Sanitation Engineer" and work collecting trash. I went to college and even got degrees in civil and environmental engineering. I have 2 degrees. Family, work, money, and desperation (the great recession) pointed me to a...

I'm glad you're able to hold that view and I respect your opinion. Now, I'll give you mine - your way of thinking is entitled and you are not the spokesperson for that demographic. I wish we could really get back to the humanist aspects where we all respect each other regardless of sex or...

Wow. You got a lot of likes for a racist, sexist, and stereotypical post. Was this ill-advised humor or are you actually serious? Just wondering...

So I can absolutely tell you with certainty that the Captain’s quarters for a US aircraft carrier is not only huge (think of a hotel suite with an adjoining dining room) but distinctly different in terms of esthetics from the rest of the carrier like carpet, normal double bed, adjoining...

I have to comment on this one. Terrible first season opener. Negatives: 1) The conflict between Michael and the President was cringe worthy. How can a leader be that arrogant? Conversely, how can Michael be that combative? I've been around high ranking officers when other high ranking...

Is it just me, or does this seem like Tarantino just wanted to do a gangster movie, full of his usual flare, but do it in the Star Trek universe? I mean, if I want good gangster movies, several have been made and I can watch them. If I'm going to see a Star Trek movie, I want to see science...

I'm a Raffi fan. I've seen some discussion on how she isolated herself and it seems that people have stated that she was rejected by everyone and a total loser and she also had a bad relationship with her son. Truth is, that is what addiction does to you. Not only do others isolate you, but...

Absolute Candor - because of ice skating in the Borg cube. Remembrance - 0 Maps and Legends - 0 Absolute Candor - 3 The Impossible Box - 3 Nepenthe - 0

This is what I hope is brought about in future episodes. I have several family members who are trans and who have been there before. I think it would be awesome for this to be represented on the screen.

Now, that would be a tremendous disappointment, so let's hope not! I can handle isolationism (looking out for the whole) but not discrimination on that level. If true, I feel that would set humanity back a long, long time. Agree with your assessment though.

I think we should let the characters guide us on their journey and see where we end up in a few episodes. Then we can look back and have a better evaluation. Maybe there is a reason that specific pronouns haven't been given and maybe that reason will be disclosed on us in the future, we will...

Representing Christians. After reading this thread I want to apologize, on behalf of Christians, for the way some of you in have been treated by others of this faith. You ask why I'm Christian? Well, I was raised in church and my family is deeply religious BUT that's not why I'm a...

My Sunday (1/21): - Wife wakes up pissed at me and we fight all day - Jaguars lose to Patriots and I can't fucking stand the Patriots (but I do respect the hell out of them) - US government can't get its shit together, shuts down, but I'm one of the ones that is ordered to come to work and not...
