Life is hard enough as it is. I’m tired. I’m exhausted. Give me hope for a better tomorrow that I honestly can’t see. Gimme Star Trek.
That being said, what do you think is the funniest episode of TNG and the scariest episode? I can’t make up my damn mind on what to watch. I’m starting with Schisms because fuck that holodeck clicking scene.
Also after posting this and taking a look at the home screen, I feel like I’m dangerously close to spamming. If I haven’t already. If it becomes a problem please let me know. Gonna back off a bit today.
Don’t forget, even in the Star Trek main timeline, Earth had to suffer through the Second American Civil War, the Eugenics Wars, World War III, and the post-atomic horror before her people were able to start building a utopia. We’re right on track! ☢ 👽 🐬 🛸
So you’re saying we were born at pretty much the worst possible point in time? Early enough to see the peak of post-WWII civilization, but late enough that we experience all of the horrors as it fades into dust?
In Trek we were lucky that our little corner had friendly/tolerable aliens and specifically that it was the Vulcan first contact.
Unfortunately in our reality we are 99.99999% for sure alone and the end result of all that suffering, if we manage to achieve near FTL travel we will just devolve into some nihilistic hyper capitalism, those stupid articles “this asteroid is worth 1 trillion USD in minerals” are already being published unironically.
