EVERY fucking stupid liberals university in the star trek future their fucking student sketch comedy group OF COURSE has at least one Vulcan and it's like their thing where they're like "haha I bet you wouldn't expect a VULCAN in an IMPROV group!!!!!" as if this hasn't become such a fucking tired cliche like literally since 2063 every fucking comedy show has the token Vulcan to be the straight man. you're doing nothing. call me when you guys make an effort to actually include tellarites in the writing room instead of confining them to punch lines. and to be honest with you guys your Vulcan isn't even that good. his performance was highly derivative of T'min's work in the big bang theory 3 (the third big bang yheory. they make a lot of sitcom sequels in the future)

The last thing you said cannot be true because star trek is supposed to be a utopian future.

star trek is very demonstrably not a utopian future it's a broken society playing at paradise. we see hints of this earlier in the post when I mention university improv comedy groups

Little Spock: *curls his hand into a fist* time to pinch the shit out of those bullies

I love it when people criticize kirk for not stopping bones and spock fighting, like that's his favorite show?? Like god forbid a man wants to see the girls fight. (And maybe kiss thereafter)

Kirk knows that for Bones and Spock having regular fights is enrichment. It keeps them happy and healthy,it supports their longevity

i think that tos is remembered as the uplifting and silly trek and by this kirk is kind of often characterized as mostly optimistic and joyful. and he is to an extent, but if you watch the show he is also constantly like wallowing in angst and staring into distances and being crushed by his responsibility. kirk's tortured as fuck. and partially because of this janeway is a better "kirk reprise" than archer (when both of these shows sort of aimed to be tos again, with more freedom and less tying up in starfleet rules). well she's also better because she is just better written, and because the "all american-nes" of kirk was like not even that relevant to why he was a good character and they really overcorrected with archer with it and the masculinity performance both. but also because for voyager they really leaned into the angst and the torture! janeway is also staring into the distance. janeway is assuming eleven tortured poses before breakfast and that's why she's a true kirk-type, not just her confidence and devotion of her crew she gets

#my favorite shore leave theory is that the shore leave factories didn't generate anything for spock not only bc he's sufficiently repressed#but because torn shirt kirk is. right next to him already. honestly shirtless kirk beating up his own old bully while spock watches#is. i think this is spock's kink actually. up there with the 'yes...yes...good...good' voyeuristic reaction to kirk inventing a bazooka#spock watching kirk be righteous and brilliant with as little clothes as possible and spock himself getting to be Correct about everything#is a GREAT day for spock already. who needs wish fulfillment#kirk isn't even interested in the chorus girl sexbots only the simulacrum of his steady gf. & real ruth is out of the picture and no threat#also they got to grab each other multiple times it was basically obscene. AND all this started when kirk only wanted a massage from him.#so 'shore leave' in its entirety is pretty much 10/10 no notes ideal day as far as spock's psyche is concerned w/ no need for extra steps @anghraine tags
