Hey there! I know it’s been over a month since you asked for people to send you drawing ideas/requested for disco so idk if you’re still doing that but if you are could you draw Saru and T’Rina touching foreheads?🥺 and/or doing vulcan kisses? (If you’re comfortable with that ofc)

sometimes being two of the most important people in the Federation is tiring… at least they can take a break in Saru’s plant-filled quarters :)

#thank you!! I honestly needed this to relax myself hah #star trek discovery #disco s4 spoilers #my art #star trek fanart #saru #t’rina #star trek discovery fanart

So one thing I thought about after the finale was how Starfleet revealed a Protostar-class ship, but by the 32nd century, during Seasons 3 and 4 of Discovery, there were none. After the Burn, as long as they weren’t affected, a ship with a protodrive would have been really helpful to the Federation. So I have 3 theories as to what happened to the Protostar-class ships between the events of Prodigy and the events of the last two seasons of Discovery:

1) Starfleet decided to retire them/not make them anymore. They are awfully dangerous if the protostars breach containment, after all. They could have easily decided to retire them after a few catastrophic incidents

2) The Protostar-class ships were affected by the Burn somehow and exploded with the rest of Starfleet’s dilithium-powered ships

3) After the Burn, the Protostar-class ships did survive but then in the 100 years in between the Burn and the Discovery arriving in the future something happened to them that made them unusable or they went supernova and Starfleet didn’t have the resources to make another one

I love Discovery, I really do, but I really really hate that speech Michael gave at the very end of season 4.

She talked about new planets joining the federation and all the others out there seeking understanding and connection. And I just... ew. This positively reeks of cultural imperialism. You think you're the only source of understanding?

Can we please stop acting like joining the Federation is the only valid path for a spacefaring civilization? Can we please stop trying to bring our knowledge and understanding of the universe to other cultures without seeking to accept theirs as well? It reminds me of how European colonial powers - heck modern Western powers as well - come into less powerful countries and try to remake them into little copies of themselves. It reminds me of Christian mercenaries and the way they believe that everyone must worship their god, not any other. The god of Star Trek is the Federation itself, and the ideals which support it. But like actual gods, this ideology is not the only one which is correct - we may assume there are countless others which are all equally respectable. And I feel like sometimes Star Trek believes that in name only. They don't force their way of life on people overtly, but why, says the Federation, wouldn't anyone want to adopt it? There's an implication that the Federation knows better than anybody else, so of course they should join them and play by their rules. Isn't it obvious their way is correct? They're trying so hard to respect other cultures and if they just do it hard enough, they'll all want to be like them.

We talk about this fandom's legacy of cultural imperialism quite a bit, and I am not pleased to see a new show repeating it. But I also don't believe for a second this is the kind of message Discovery's writers were trying to send. Because the message they intended is writ large across the entirety of this show - and that message is hope and human connection in the face of division; it is mutual respect and communication; it is a message wholy incompatible with the implications of this speech.

It just shows how deeply these harmful ideas have been embedded in our culture, that we can perpetuate them without realizing it. So let's learn from it and do better next time.

#star trek #cultural imperialism #colonialism #star trek discovery #disco s4 spoilers #discovery season 4 #no hate to the writers or anybody they all deserve the benefit of the doubt #it's still a great show which i love dearly #but this moment was incongruous and really threw me off my enjoyment of the episode #this is not a cancel post it is a 'let's engage in media with our critical thinking skills' post #i can love something and recognize its imperfections and i am doing both wholeheartedly #hylian rambles #a bit #negative #but that is not the point #sort of a rant #sometimes my brain makes a connection and smacks me in the face with it

just some thoughts from a byler shipper who only really got into the byler/general ST tumblr fandom after Season 4 Vol. 1. I think it helped me bounce back quicker after Vol. 2.

I never expect canon main queer relationships in media that aren't explicitly marketing itself as queer or with significant queer content (watch Star Trek Discovery if you wanna see a gay protagonist in a relationship have powers and be plot relevant in a mainstream-ish sci-fi setting). Plus I never thought about Stranger Things as anything more complex than popcorn flick media. I've been watching it since it aired, read a few fics here and there, but still, basically I only really had one month of invested time getting into the byler "hype". Which of course were dashed by Vol. 2. TBH I still haven't rewatched Vol. 2 because I still think it sucked outside of byler lmao. But then I remembered what I said myself just a few days after I watched Vol. 1:

link to the tumblr post since my screenshot is very low contrast.

it's very broad strokes but early June me was pretty much right on how ST would go about byler this season. Did they do it in a heavily problematic way? Hell yeah, especially if they don't follow through. But did they accomplish what I assume to be their goals (root for Will, feel weird about supporting MiIeven, have no concrete answers for either ship, while letting people in denial about byler believe it won't ever happen)? they totally did.

Like, listen. I'm not purporting to be some know-all fan. There's still a chance the series isn't going to follow through. But they did set things up for byler so that it reasonably could be the endgame ship. And right now, that's enough for me. I still really dislike S4 regardless, and likely won't watch S5 without reading spoilers/reviews first lmao but in the end, we've got about 2 years to wait this out, why not spend it with some moderate amount of hope? and also maybe watch Star Trek Discovery in the meantime

#ku blarghs #strangely blogging #byler #i'm just a nobody but hopefully? this helps some fans #also. this makes me want to make a complete write up and analysis on the whole of the cali plot #like not just one scene but the whole of it from vol 1 to 2 #because there's a disconnect in between that people see #and i wanna know if it really is there

No more science for you!

I am enjoying Rekha Sharma as Shivani on Roswell.

But this is the fourth thing I’ve seen her in, and there’s a pattern...

(Spoilers for S4 of Roswell, New Mexico, Another Life, and S1 of Star Trek Discovery under the cut.)

Roswell (2022): Evil science. In pursuit of the greater good etc, but still evil.

Another Life (2019/2021): Somewhat dubious science. Done badly.

Star Trek Discovery: Provokes the science. Gets eaten by the science.

The Core: Saving the world science (assistant).

Ma’am, that’s it. No more science for you. You cannot be trusted with the science! You can have a fruitcake instead.

I was writing last night so I didnt liveblog my thoughts on it but! I am officially all caught up with Discovery, until s5 premieres later this week. gonna discuss my thoughts below, so spoiler warning!

overall, I really like Discovery! I love the characters, I love the dynamics between all of them, and I think the plots each season have been fun. sure, some of them are a bit convoluted, but hey its Star Trek so I expect that

I think jumping 930 years into the future helped with some of the issues I was having with the first 2 seasons, in that it was really hard to see this series as a prequel. ive talked a lot about how while the writing and everything made it clear this was a prequel, it just didnt look like a prequel. now, it doesnt have to, and the writing isnt held back by having to be a prequel, so we get to see and do some really cool shit. the new species introduced were awesome, ive loved seeing the federation come together, ive loved seeing different species we already knew and loved but so far in the future. I think the choice to go so far into the future was, overall, a good one

I think my biggest gripe overall with Discovery is that so many characters just. dont stay dead. I think this was fine with Hugh, I thought how they did it with him made as much sense (as much sense as anything in Star Trek makes) and it was pulled off really well, and I was satisfied from a writing standpoint and from an emotional standpoint. with Gray it was... fine. it was well-explained, but a bit of a cop-out. still, fine. Book's made me roll my eyes. im sorry, his was stupid. here's why I think so

I like Book. im not super attached to him, but I like him. I liked the conflict with him in s4. and I thought his death was actually done really well. it was sudden, and jarring, but you also realized pretty quickly that yeah. it was always going to end this way. Michael did everything she could, but she was never going to be able to save him. for a brief moment we think maybe he's saved, and then he's gone. it was harsh, but it was good (lemme give a shoutout to Sonequa Martin-Green's acting again cause her crying is VISCERAL) and then its immediately undone because Book is miraculously saved by 10-C. so, now, on top of having a cop-out resurrection, we also have an established pattern of Discovery being unwilling to kill characters and keep them dead

this isnt true with every case, of course. Discovery has absolutely no problem with killing villains and minor characters, and even killing characters we're familiar with but who dont play major roles. but now that we've done this resurrection thing multiple times, its going to affect how I view s5 and any situation they present where a major character might die. the emotional stakes just won't be there, because im gonna sit there and think about how we've been here before, and its never stuck. ill have a hard time taking any of those situations seriously, because ill be wondering how theyre gonna bring them back this time

that said, im still excited for s5 and cant wait to see what it has in store. of the newer Treks ive seen so far, Discovery is definitely one of the better ones. its absolutely better than Picard. I have a hard time comparing it to Lower Decks, since theyre such vastly different shows, but ive enjoyed it just as much as I enjoyed Lower Decks. from what we saw of the SNW cast in Discovery, im now cautiously optimistic that ill at least enjoy the characters in SNW, even if I have to deal with. another prequel

I probably won't liveblog Discovery s5 when I watch it, just to avoid spoilers. so, see yall when I start SNW tonight!

#star trek: discovery #refusing to commit to killing major characters is not a gripe I only have with Discovery #it just has the most examples of this #I was PISSED when Q showed back up at that little end scene in Picard #it felt like such a slap in the face after Picard s2 handled his death and closure so beautifully #but yeah. Discovery does it constantly #in my honest opinion here's my hot take #it would've been more satisfying if Book died and Michael had to accept that she could do everything right and still lose #it would've been heart wrenching but it would've hit better #but I think my real scalding take is that it would've been better if Gray wasn't made corporeal #and instead melded fully into being a past life within Adira #could've been a real 'when you love yourself thats me loving you' type thing which would've been beautiful #especially with a character who struggles like Adira does #im. fine. with Gray being around and physical I think its fine and it doesnt annoy me as much as Book's cop-out resurrection #but still. I would've done it differently

If there was some way to actually draw a sentient sort of computer system contained within a ship, there would be SO much more Zora fanart in here

There is something so intangibly hilarious and also Incredibly relatable about Vance (middle aged Admiral) and Tilly (20-something Cadet-turned-Ensign-Turned-XO-Turned Teacher) drinking at the end of the world together, talking about life and trauma

#like they Really Had a ‘3am patio table’ Convo at the end of the world #while drinking alone together #and honestly I think that’s beautiful #that’s how this year has felt #just bonding with your coworkers as the world falls apart #even if you lead totally different lives #it’s not so bad with a friend to be there with you too #Charles vance #admiral vance #sylvia tilly #s4 spoilers #disco spoilers #finale spoilers #Star Trek discovery #star trek discovery s4

I'm not quite done watching S4 of Discovery, but I just wrote half of a goddamn essay on the ways the storyline connects to the circumstances it was written in - namely the pandemic and related social chaos. I also went on about depictions of mental illness fairly extensively, because the last couple episodes have hit me rather hard (in a good way).

If anyone wants to read that/either of those, please yell at me about it (nicely please); it'll improve my odds of finishing the darned thing. I'm hitting that post of a creative project where I suddenly doubt everything I've done thus far.
