HAVE YOU SEEN THIS!?!?!
This is from a recent comic series called "Star Trek: Year Five". In case you're interested, I talked about it here.
Star Trek: Year Five Issue #22
mmm, yes, fuckin ouch.
hell of a time to ask
I rewatched some Star Trek fanvids and every time I saw Kirk and Spock in TOS movies era I got emotional and I almost cried. I just feel so happy that we got to see them growing older together. :') They are in love, okay? <3
I finally remembered to post this one here too hehehehheahkdhaskdgksgd As I said in my ig, this movie was my first contact with Star Trek when I didn't know what Star Trek was. I loved it as a child, and now I love it even more! Pure comedy gold. -------- store patreon kofi-memberships

another one for the "spock's hands touching the captain" series
Remember when a civilization based its entire structure on a Gangster "bible"? Yeah, I needed two or more episodes with that concept. I've been teasing it on my ig already, stay tunned for the following weeks cause I'm preparing something kinda important 👀

Times "Jim Kirk is a survivor of the Tarsus IV massacre" is brought up in TOS episodes: 1
Times "Jim Kirk is an absolute shit pool/billiards player" is brought up in TOS episodes: 2
(don't @ me with "this line from this episode can be interpreted as a reference to Tarsus," I just love that Kirk being unable to work a pool cue properly is actually a recurring gag, intentional or not)
yes I would play a Kirk dating sim
My personal Star Trek TOS pet peeve is that I absolutely refuse to believe that some guy on a planet who built the "perfect woman" to make her his perfect wife forever was Leonardo Da Vinci. He was fucking not. There is literally zero evidence in history that Leonardo was ever attracted to women. He never married, never had mistresses, he lived his life surrounded by men. He was accused of sodomy once. Not definitive proof that he was gay, perhaps, but that's a better hint than randomly assuming he liked women!
Also, are they implying that the "Alexander" among Mr. Flint's other identities was Alexander the Great? Because OMG, don't get me started. Listen, maybe Alexander was (also) attracted to women, but his marriages were political. There's zero proof that he ever wished to have a deep emotional connection with a woman. On the contrary, his lifelong bond was with a man. And LOL, don't even get me started on the differences between Flint's reaction when the supposed love of his life Rayna dies, and Alexander the Great's reaction when Hephaestion died… THEY ARE NOT THE SAME. Let's just say that it'd be like comparing Kirk's reaction to Rayna's death to Kirk's reaction to Spock's death in The Wrath of Khan and The Search for Spock (and actually, even Kirk seems to take Rayna's death worse than Flint LOL).
I know, I know, it was the '60s. But it still bothers me so much to see two queer historical figures linked to that Flint dude. He was not them. He was not!
Okay, end of the rant.
(On the other hand, I guess I can believe he was Lazarus lol)
Spock and Sherlock Holmes are the same brand of “this character has been around for SO long and basically everyone agrees they’re gay or at least some flavor of queer. so much so that they’ve impacted the minds and hearts of GENERATIONS of queer people but for some reason, no matter how many adaptions and spin offs we get in the years since the original work, no one making the official work has had the guts to say it officially ”
And it's also implied that they're related in a star trek novel
Not just in a novel; it's implied in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country :D
Thats not implications that's outright canon.
Also...ACD would spin in his grave if we successfully contacted his spirit to ask if Sherlock was gay. His entire ghostly being would explode in frustration at having his spiritualist beliefs proven right by Holmesians.
I was just pointing out where the quote was from. What is canon and what is not in Star Trek universe can be up to interpretation, because even if you consider Star Trek TOS only, there are a lot of contradictions between episodes (and between episodes and movies). It's just the way Star Trek is. Also, this has nothing to do with Sherlock or Spock's sexual orientation being canon (it's not, and I say this as a huge Kirk/Spock shipper); I was just replying to the part about them being possibly related.
That said, personally I think that Star Trek writers here were making a joke implying that Spock is ACD descendant. Of course, every fan can interpret that line the way they like. :)

What's your opinion about Kirk and Spock who are based on you and Hephaestion? :3
I. LOVE. IT.
If you’ve ever read a biography about myself, you know that I am the kind of person who appreciates a show like Star Trek. It’s all about discovery and exploration and the human condition. I also love that the show was so progressive about breaking social boundaries. I was kind of big on those things in my life, let’s just say.
To be honest though, I don’t think that Kirk and Spock are really that much like myself and Hephaistion. Uh, Hephaistion isn’t quite as even-tempered as Spock. Although Kirk comes close to my level of drama. Close, but not quite. Unfortunately, I don’t think I really fit in to the Starfleet peacekeeping mission since I’m a bit too conquer-happy.
I’ll leave you with this. I’ve always found the concept of space and the universe moving.
Alexander wept when he heard Anaxarchus discourse about an infinite number of worlds, and when his friends inquired what ailed him, “Is it not worthy of tears,” he said, “that, when the number of worlds is infinite, we have not yet become lords of a single one?” (Plutarch, On Tranquility of Mind, 4.1)
