My Stupid A*s 😂

Yooooo Amanda is a milf in this episode, respectfully 🤤 I am so glad Spock is now aware of everything she had to go through for him and for Sarek.

That being said, T'Pring continues to be awesome and wants to be with Spock despite her parents. Her mom is a whole bitch and her dad is a spineless man. If someone talked to MY mother like T'Pril does about Amanda, I would flip my whole shit. Pike's face when T'Pril began roasting Spock had me laughing for 5 minutes straight XD He deserves it though, I have never been more disappointed in him. He really out here cheating on T'Pring with Chapel. Damn. T'Pril is right, he does not deserve T'Pring.

Growing up watching the women in my family go through this and take it out on their kids, I refuse to follow in their footsteps. Single life until I find someone worthy. No I will not "lower my standards" as they keep telling me just cause your ass settled for trash.

I have been hyper fixating on Spock for years now. With good reason. I grew up with a verbally abusive father that at one time yelled at me so loud I wet my pjs in fear. He then told me I was doing it for attention. I was 7 years old. Spock is the exact opposite of my father. He is calm, collected, brilliant and fiercely loyal to those he cares about, even when he is going through his own troubles with HIS father, Sarek. It sounds corny, but growing up with a father like mine and watching other family men do the same, I thought I was going to have to spend the rest of my life getting yelled at but staying with him for the kids. Spock, and Star Trek really, showed me that I can find someone who is intelligent and listens to me. That I don't have to have children and if I do, it is better to leave than stay with someone who treats my kids like crap. Unlike my mom. I haven't met my Spock yet, but I will wait until I do. To everyone reading this, please never accept being treated like less, by family or otherwise, and if you are already in a bad relationship if not for yourself, please leave for the kids.

Eugene looks like he unalived Ned and is going to his funeral.

Neera is the baddest, the best part of this whole episode. I am so happy everyone came together to defend Una. Pike is a G for going to Illyria, and its inhospitable atmosphere, to help her :D I also love how this episode shows that laws NEED to change to accommodate the time and situations. Something that happened 200 years ago cannot have such a chokehold on our views in the present. UNA WHY WOULD YOU TURN YOURSELF IN, I mean I get it, BUT DAMN!

May you never be the reason why someone who loved to sing, doesn’t anymore. Or why someone who dressed so uniquely, now wears plain clothing. Or why someone who always spoke so excitedly about their dreams, is now silent about them. May you never be the reason someone gave up on a part of themselves because you were demotivating, non-appreciative, hypercritical, or even worse sarcastic about it.

Aside from the the beautiful colors, animation and skin tones

Watching Abuela talk in this movie was like watching every toxic trait my Cuban family has come to life. The toxic traits that cause you to hide/question career choices, lifestyle choices, your sexuality just so you can remain in ✨la familia✨. Never truly being yourself because you want to appeal to an old woman with dusty ass traditions that mean NOTHING in the modern world. Because you don't want to end up like Bruno right? I am SICK of the intergenerational trauma Latinos put on their kids, especially their girls. To all my fellow, proud Latinas, please break free. Nobody and nothing is worth sacrificing yourself over. Kiss that boy/girl, take that job in another country, live alone, do everything they say you "can't" do because they are too afraid to do it themselves.
