Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?

- Comment on Podcast Discussion | Star Trek: Khan | 1x07 "I Am Marla" 4 days ago:
Rosalind Lear appears to be hiding some kind of alternative motivation for investigating into Khan and Ceti Alpha
I didn’t find this surprising in the sense that she’s seemed…biased, to say the least. But the scene with Tuvok was nice, even though in the moment I was wondering if it was Lear or Delmonda that was meant to be the liar. Context suggests it’s her, though.
The song the young augments were listening to was Your Touch released in 2021.
Interesting. I wonder if it’s a favourite of Kirsten Beyer or something - I’m a little surprised that they went to the effort of clearing a pop song of any kind.
Khan’s odd mercy towards him
I see it as a means to an end - looking like he’s living up to his end of the bargain with Delmonda. A dangerous game to be playing, though.
the inevitable loss of McGiven’s to the Ceti Eel.
I know this is consistent with the film, but part of me wishes she had met her demise more directly as a result of some choice that Khan made, if only to reinforce just how foolish she had been to join his little cult in the first place.

- Comment on Star Trek Collectibles Roundup — TOS Toys Return, Academy Boots, 23rd Century Adventures, and EXO-6 Enters the Kelvin Timeline 6 days ago:
The Lego thing was officially announced a while back.
I think Star Trek merchandise is decent…when it comes to the high-end, ridiculously-priced market.
When it comes to affordable stuff…less so.

The more I think about it, the more I feel like the decision to add these aliens to the story was a good one. It gives Khan someone to be tyrannical toward, since his cultist followers don’t really give him a reason to do monstrous things.

That’s a pain. I guess a delete and repost might do it, or on desktop you might be able to set a different thumbnail URL.

The San Francisco campus - or at least a large portion of it - is actually the USS Athena, a fully-functional starship that can land on Earth, but also go on mission when needed to provide some hands-on training (and, I assume, help a Starfleet that’s still spread fairly thin). They talked a little bit more about it here.
As far as I’m aware, Federation HQ remains a giant ship/space station.

I finally set aside time to actually watch this thing.
It’s important not to read too much into these things, but this really made me feel like they’re building toward Una’s departure.
- Comment on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy | Official Trailer | Paramount+ (NYCC 2025) 1 week ago:
I doubt they’re “done” with any particular demo, but they’ve been pretty up-front about being concerned about an aging/dying fanbase, and wanting to make some stuff for younger people.
But I do think that they’ve been pretty good at giving each series its own time and vibe, so hopefully something down the road will appeal to you if this doesn’t.

I think Kurtzman’s mic skills have improved - at the very least, he’s well-prepared.

Ah okay, I was afraid you had something more insidious in mind that I hadn’t thought of.
I guess I feel like the “rule of threes” is more pleasing to the ears and eyes, and “Star Fleet” has certainly been two words from time to time over the years.
But really, as long as no one’s being a troll about it, I think it’s all good.
