Of all the wild impossibilities of sci-fi, surely the most egregious was this week’s episode of Star Trek Discovery, when a 50-something man was attracted to a woman his own age.

when you deny your adopted daughter access to the vulcan science expedition in favor of your son but your son ends up saying a huge “fuck you” to the vulcan high council and runs of to join star fleet instead
ep 6 of disco is just
michael: hey dad lets talk about our feelings
sarek: no offence but i would literally rather die
what i lack in athletic ability, i more than make up for in intelligence and personality.
I have watched no Star Trek Discovery but the most important takeaways from it, according to my dash, seem to be:
- Sarek is Bad At Parenting
- Star Trek…..with good special effects? what?????
- Everyone would die for Michael
- mushroom man
- the shape of Doug Jones’ backside was an essential production decision
- LET STAR TREK SAY FU- oh wait they actually said it
- everyone would die and kill and maim for Tilly
You’re right. It’s been harder on me than I let on. I lied about everything, and I need help.
