New Star Trek headcanon: Chekov thinks McCoy is from Georgia (country) and not Georgia (USA) and keeps calling him "neighbor" because Russia's next to Georgia. McCoy is very confused.
star trek tos au where all the uniform boots look like this
this is for everyone who was upset that i didn't match the boots to their uniform colors
oh my god? the x files-fandom was the fandom that invented the word ‘shipping’? JESUS CHRIST I LOVE Y’ALL
Yes, back in the early days, there were two camps of fans: “Relationshippers” (people all about the MSR) and the “NoRomos” (people all about the platonic partnership.) Relationshippers was eventually shortened to “shippers.”
The X-Files popularity just happened to parallel the birth of the internet. Philes took it by storm with the creation of fan forums, chat groups, and hundreds of websites devoted to the show, characters, and the actors. :)
The X-Files fandom also coined the term UST (Unresolved Sexual Tension) as a fanfic descriptor. :D Fandom history is pretty neat.
fruck man
Man X-Files was my intro to fandom and fic and it shaped me so much
You know this post?
It’s true! But the corollary is, “And if not Star Trek, probably X-Files.”
Fandom history is fun. Like the time I discovered Sex Pollen is from Star Trek.
out of touch jim kirk thursday
You ever think about how in the Galaxy Quest universe there are tens of thousands of fics shipping Tim Allen and Alan Rickman in the place of Kirk and Spock?
Okay but Down Bad is Spirk
but from Spock's perspective
Star Trek (2009) looked like this
needs more lens flare
Oh, sorry, excuse me
Star Trek (2009) looked like this
Wasn’t that the one where the engine room was just, like. A brewery?
I THOUGHT YOU WERE JUST TALKING SHIT, BUT YOU REALLY MEANT IT ACTUALLY WAS A STRAIGHT-UP BREWERY, FOR BEER AND NOT SPACESHIP JUICE
Once again I point out
The Dyson hand dryers were also literally in Star Trek 2009

ETHAN PECK as Spock in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2.01
why don't you join us? spock x kirk 2.06 Lost in Translation
Realizing that Amok Time, from T'Pring's perspective, is basically the equivalent of a Vulcan Hallmark Movie, where a holiday (Pon Farr) makes our hero realize she wants hometown boy Stonn and a simple (Vulcan) life instead of big-city (space) boyfriend Spock, and it all comes to a head in an embarrassing misunderstanding in front of her family, is certainly making me feel some kind of way
It's on a double bill with "The Wrath of Khanukkah"
Like I know this is just supposed to be some friendly ribbing about the differences in build between Kelley and Urban but its way more fun to interpret it as TOS Kirk wanting to fuck AOS McCoy.
keep it together, Jim
I can't sleep so Star Trek TOS/SNW dashboard simulator

to this day I can't understand why they're called the Three Musketeers if there's FOUR of them? Did Dumas just forget his own main character???

Despite being among humans for close to a decade, I still find their tendency to overcomplicate and avoid aspects of social situations to be confusing at best and infuriating at worst. So much time is wasted on tedious matters such as who gets to 'make the first move' or 'not come off too strong'.
For example, everyone aboard my vessel is keenly aware of Lt. Uhura and Engineer Scott's 'budding romance'. But their need to extend their oddly avoidant courtship ritual, rather than outright state their interest in one another, is pointless, as well as frustrating to witness.
Why do they do this? Why not 'get it over with', as they say?
I encourage answers from all cultures, human or otherwise.

PSA: If you visit Antares VII, stay clear of any yellow plants, their pollen can have some...inconvenient effects on the biology of humanoid peoples.
My XO and I suffered through troubling symptoms until it was almost too late. Thankfully, we figured out a cure in time.

I can only find info on the symptoms. What was the cure? 👀

I know some species are very private, but you'd think they'd share the important stuff, esp when we should trust each other by now.
How are we supposed to enjoy my weekly dinners if you all don't tell me what to watch out for :/ This is the third time this happens to the same person and I had to get the answer why from our CMO
