"Monsters come in many forms. Do you know the greatest monster of them all? Guilt."

I love The Man Trap. It's a fun episode, plus it's one of the first episodes I remember watching as a little girl, so it'll always hold a special place in my heart.

Poor Salt Vampire... she shoulda just asked for some salt, Starfleet would have given her some!

The Star Trek title card generator is over here:

The sitemaker (Josh Mayfield at https://bsky.app/profile/bean525.bsky.social) has asked for people to come in and kick its tires so he can work out any bugs they turn up. So do give him a hand, if you feel inclined. :)

(also, deeply amused by this one...)

There are certain details that even we—the Spones fandom—sometimes overlook.

For instance, one of the best things about Spones is that they have a few distinct labels—"pairing terms," ​​so to speak.

So, here they are:

The first and most important is "Keeper of the Katra." It’s a wonderful tag that highlights the core dynamic: McCoy is Spock’s confidant—he was entrusted with the very essence of Spock.

The second term, no less important, is "old married couple." They were referred to this way long before the concept of "shipping" even existed in Star Trek.

Another term is "beloved nemesis"[enemies] — a term indicating that their arguments are not genuine disagreements, and one that is literally played out in the episode "Bread and Circuses."

There is also the term "true space husbands," for they are the canonical—and first—queer couple in space sci-fi.
