interesting new Trill things established in Discovery 5x03 “Jinaal”

The planet has a surface area of 500 million square kilometers (slightly less than Earth's, which is just over 510 million square kilometers)

Trill facial spots have unique individual patterns, much like fingerprints

Adira says it's unusual for a (joined?) Trill symbiont to live to 800 years but not completely unheard of, I wonder if it's a milestone not unlike 100 years is for humans. It's the best approximation of a Trill symbiont's lifespan we ever had so far, I think

a joined Trill (or anyone joined to a Trill symbiont) can't be a host during someone else's zhian'tara (2018 me would've hated to learn this but now I think it just makes sense)

when a formerly joined symbiont is released back into the pools permanently (which is what I assume happened to the Bix symbiont at the end of the episode) it is through a ceremony hosted by the Guardians of the Mak'ala caves (this seems to be tradition in 3191)

will never not be a little peeved that adira's first two episodes feature endless misgendering. i get that they hadnt specified pronouns yet, and kind of maybe didnt know themself yet?, but considering the level of promo given to discovery's new non-binary character, to have to spend that much time meeting a new character and hearing 'she/her' that much was and is pretty frustrating. like we as the audience knew before any of the characters did

that said, i do find the layered metaphor that their joining with the tal symbiont is called 'an aberration' because adira is human, added with the beginning of the arc with gray, to be pretty damn compelling still. that mix of being othered but also hope is pretty well done imo! discovery is constantly trying so hard wrt telling queer stories, usually failing a tad, but also then bringing it back in, and i do respect that pretty solidly. TWO instances of unbury your gays is pretty unhinged to pull off and yet!!

I love how Clovis is just like; "Look at what you've done Guardian. Now Europa is going to be destroyed in a nuclear catastrophe, and it's all YOUR fault." as if he wasn't the one who set up the space station to crash into the moon's surface and detonate infinite nukes.

Motherfucker really is in here going "No one else is allowed to play with my toys and if anyone tries I am going to kill Everyone."

discovery 05x04 proves that tv shows CAN and SHOULD do filler episodes even in short seasons. the plot moved nowhere but the characters did and that's what it's about!!! and about stopping for a minute and being weird!!! now can everyone else do it please

IMMEDIATELY liked this guy 200% more once they had Tilly tell him that he's an asshole to his face multiple times. The 'hardass boards the ship to whip the crew into shape' trope did not last 1 second and I'm loving it

#this show is still corny as hell but you gotta appreciate when they subvert a trope! #dsc #dsc spoilers #sylvia tilly #rayner

I hope Rayner buys Reno that Vesper martini he owes her from the alt timeline. And probably make her go "sir, you know I'm a lesbian, right?" xD. But then they bond over being salty bitches. Reno can teach him how to be a better functioning salty bitch that isn't disliked by everyone.

Book's made it pretty clear he has no interest in joining Starfleet. If he's actually being considered for first officer, I'd like it to be a Kira or T'Pol situation where he wouldn't be required to join. I'm tired of the "Starfleet is the answer for everyone" vibe Trek has had going for a while

I love the throwback to Michael and Tilly running laps on Discovery in their DISCO schwag.

Also enjoyed having a well done scene of a dude playing video games, another dude coming by with snacks, and then the two of them having a real conversation about feelings.
