I like seeing the personal growth of these characters kicking in early. And that we don’t only focus on Caleb. When’s my Jay-den episode coming?

And while I didn’t think I‘d like the post-burn setting, it gives our characters a reason to reiterate what Star Fleet and the Federation stand for. In the classic shows, there wasn’t really a reason so argue what the federation is supposed to be (because it was objectively extremely successful the way it was). I enjoy seeing our characters rebuilding this utopia.

There is an actual RFC for "IP over Avian Carriers with Quality of Service" that was released on April fools day 1999.

There are some fantastic diagrams in there:

That’s upsetting. Thank you.

I also think Chapel is very good at her job, but nurse and doctor are two different career paths. You don’t graduate being a nurse by becoming a doctor.

I don’t recognize Chaotic Evil and Neutral Good, can somebody enlighten me?

As someone whose dissertation is on conspiracy theories, I gotta say: The writers did a great job at essentially summarizing the current literature:

“I thought you were just a paranoid anxiety made up by people who needed an imagined enemy to simulate order on unrelated disasters so life doesn't feel so random and chaotic!” (Boimler, S04E08)

That mind control/subliminal messages in advertising joke with the paramount logo made me laugh.

Character’s name is Ensign Travis Mayweather and he’s played by Anthony Montgomery :)

Everybody’s favorite space boomer!

That was a cool moment. Thanks for reminding me of that scene!

"I can't believe that worked!" is such a horrifying thing to hear your physician say just after waking up. Gotta love Dr. Cats
