@DavidGA @startrek It’s a deep deep cut.

@ulkesh @startrek It’s a terrific series, and Wheaton is such a great host.

@mycatiskai @startrek I’ve always been uncomfortable with how much Star Wars fandom has embraced the iconography of the Empire.

@phoenixz @startrek IMHO, Strange New Worlds is the most “Star Trek” show since TNG. It really captures the spirit of the original show.

(I am not a fan of Picard or Discovery, largely because I feel they don’t have the elements I liked about past shows — they are too dark and pessimistic for my tastes.)

@Doug @startrek That scene was pure fan service, and after a decade in the wilderness this fan at least *loved* it.

@Uranium3006 @startrek Arguably the original vision was far less sexist, with a female second in command (which the network quashed). Even having a female as part of the bridge crew was ahead of its time.

@HeartyBeast @startrek *Please* can we forget them?

@StillPaisleyCat @startrek Of *course* their programming language would require a special keyboard.

@ZenkorSoraz To paraphrase a developer from the ‘80s: “I don't know what the language of the future will look like, but I know it will be called Fortran.”

@MaxMouseOCX @startrek That’s not the criterion for the Bechdel Test — it’s ONE conversation between two women that’s not about a man.

@Blamemeta Yes, that’s TOS.

@Blamemeta TOS, and Roddenberry’s original vision, was all about diversity/inclusivity.
