It's been a gas and it's time to pass.

Spoiler throughout:

Is that an angry bullpup version of the unicorn dog from the Original Series? I like the Sense-oars pronunciation I spotted. OMG I should've expected them to address the different Klingon looks but I didn't expect to see a T'kuvma / Discovery era Klingon reappearing. When they said "solidton" particles I imagined it was going to be a metaphor about keeping "canon" stagnant. First time I see a ST character say "those words aren't real" to Treknobabble. I'm glad they're keeping the Star Trek tradition of holding up way too many Pads on the table where one should've done the trick. I never wondered if Klingons had claws for toenails, now I am. I like how Brad tries to convince others that William's the worst. How'd they know they were dropping out of warp if the next shot shows them cloaked? I expected as much with the ship changing. Never really cared much for the different classes of ships though. This Rutherford bitterness feels like it came out of nowhere. Those whales are thirsty again. I thought she was going all Kamehameha. I have a feeling the clam is a reference to something but I'm not sure what. IDK why, but that one shot of Boimler turning his head and us being able to see under his chin particularly stood out as a "bump the lamp" moment. Was there a cut scene, what was (silver?) Badgey doing there? Or was that Goodgey? Have I forgotten about them? I like how Ransom made his own rule for provisional first officers. Engage the core is a perfect Warp catchphrase.

I liked how William Boimler was so done with Multiverse fatigue. Felt topical given the current Hollywood trend.

"Sodium is not a full life" "Maybe it is for me, dammit!" Felt this in my soul.

It was hard to explain why, but it definitely had a "comic from over a decade ago" feel that I noticed before seeing the 2011 post date.

Don't social media prevent 13 year olds and under from signing up anyway? They ask for your age but it doesn't seem to keep kids from lying about their age and going on facebook, instagram, twitter, TikTok, etc, regardless. That's disregarding the idea that a child could just use their parent's account. What's the enforcement besides the honor system and a vague threat of being sued? I am failing to see a difference between the state of things now and what that bill wants to introduce.

I like it when the Ferengi stay on brand.

Mariner really shouldn't be pulling out those knives, especially the ones with serrated hooks on the back. That just seems like a recipe for severe bleeding.

If you think that's needlessly specific, have you ever seen the Wookiepedia page about "breasts?"

Then again, Memory Alpha also has a page on breasts.

I'll always find it a little weird how pop culture settled on making Dwarves vaguely Scottish when their origin is as Nordic and Germanic mountain spirits.

Pike should have just said one "Beep."

I found it peculiar how the Klingons were saying there was no honor in the singing—considering how into Opera the can be known to be—up until I heard how they got the most egregious of the autotune.
