Jelly Breen

My theory on the Breen, which will probably be proven wrong by Thursday:

The Breen homeworld has an eccentric orbit around its primary, giving it extremely long, harsh seasons. The Breen have evolved to be able to take two forms, each adapted to a different climatic stage.

The ordinary humanoid stage is adapted to the long summer, which is temperate, while the fluidic/gelatinous form is adapted to the long winter, when the planet Breen is a frozen wasteland. What they're made of I don't know, but it's something that's stable at subzero temperatures and breaks down or evaporates at higher temperatures.

The shift to summer happened only a relatively short time before the 24th century, and it's still summer in the 32nd. This explains the contradictory accounts of planet Breen by outsiders; the tales of the frozen wasteland are out of date.

The winter form is stronger and more resilient than the summer form in the right conditions, but can't survive in normal class-M environments. At some point, the Breen learned to be able to shift between the forms at will, and decided their winter form was superior. They developed their suits to keep themselves cold, just so they can stay in their "superior" form all the time.

Perhaps the ship we saw in "Mirrors" is an environment just for dealing with other species, or perhaps they keep their ships in class-M conditions and stay in their suits all the time out of a cultural imperative.

Eventually, maybe with L'ak's help, they'll learn that neither form is superior, merely adapted to different conditions.

There ARE valid criticisms of Star Trek Discovery and I wish we could talk about them without it immediately careening towards "oh, you don't like the representation!?" as if that's the only barometer of a good show.

Honestly my biggest criticism is that the show has no levity. Where are the goofy romps in the holodeck? When do they teach the aliens how to lighten up and play baseball? I know this sounds silly, but honestly I think it reflects society right now. We have no work/life balance. The characters are only shown working because that's what is expected of us in real life. And it's worth mentioning that earlier Trek doesn't have this problem. This is a recent trend!

Do I love that the captain is a black woman? Of course I do! I wish I knew what that black woman did for fun when she's off work! But we NEVER see her off work! Do I love that Discovery has the first nonbinary character? Yes, awesome! And they know how to quilt, but it's never mentioned ever again and their only personality trait from then on is that they are good at their job. The job is what is valuable.

And like the argument could be made that they are just passionate about their work because they're scientists. But the scientists I know are also musicians, or poets, or animal lovers. If all they did was work they would burn out. All these poor babies on this ship are gonna quit Starfleet and need more therapy than the doctor guy could ever hope to provide.

Criticism number 2! Zora should be the ship's official counselor.
