Kirk In An 80s All Glitter Jumpsuit

Everyone's so interested in the Merc cooling jacket at the drivers' parade lol Kimi's being poked like a stuffed toy

I need these as my wallpaper actually im obsessed

all 3 of my tos seasons posters!

Seriously, enough with the Spock/Chapel thing!! It was mentioned like once in TOS and was basically unrequited on Spock’s side, but here it’s reversed: Spock wants Chapel and she doesn’t want him. Also, why do we lean so heavily into Spock’s romantic life and not WHO HE IS AS A CHARACTER? In the process, it’s changing fundamental aspects of who he is. Spock is a human and a Vulcan, but SNW is just playing it like he’s a human with some Vulcan tendencies. It’s like the inverse of the AOS movies.

There was one SNW episode where they kinda address that he’s not acting like Spock (where he starts smiling), but it’s just dismissed so so fast as Spock « embracing who he really is, » like his Vulcan culture/identity is a prison. Not to play the autism card, but since Spock is a character many autistic people identify with, removing that relatability and then treating it like it’s better for him to be « normal » than to be himself is SO SO WRONG.

All this to say, I think SNW actually does a very good job with a lot of things. Even other ways they characterize Spock are very effective, especially his relationship with Uhura. But COME ONNNNN

Anyway positives from the trailer:

Silly costumes

Space adventures

Space adventures in silly costumes

Looks like a wide range of genres in episodes, which I think is great!

Possible Q continuum stuff???

Happy to see more Jim

Cons:

Please just stop with the Spock/Chapel romance I’m tired

Where is Sam >:(

I still have not forgiven the show for the Gorn

get spirked

↑ some drafts ↑

I like when people like a character so way too much that it transcends even self shipping or kinning and becomes more of a patron saint that you pray to type of deal

this skull ain’t big enough for the both of us

Vulcantology: Best Sources To Learn All Things Vulcan

Another lovely and sad song in MGV by T’Prion

So I was just starting out in my research Journey on the Vulcan (or Whl’q’n I have learned!) people and their world (T’Khasi is the name for the Vulcan homeworld and I honest have no idea why it’s translated by the UT into Fed Standard English, it’s definitely one of the less difficult Vulcan words to pronounce.)

But I’ve found EVEN MORE helpful links! Not just for learning Vulkansu but for Vulcans in general! I wouldn’t be surprised if there is eventually yet ANOTHER of these posts in the future (or really just make this one bigger). As it stands, this is my comprehensive guide to all things Vulcan! 💚🖖🏻💚

Major Websites

Surak (bordering on obsolete, but helpful for getting to other hyperlinks in case anything on this post goes funky)

Korsaya (Lots of info on how to write in Vulcan and other language writing questions)

Kir’Shara (This one might be my new favorite! It’s a fan lore site that stays true to canon lore as possible! It’s got the complete writings of Surak, cultural anecdotes and name lists! Much love!)

Where To Learn Vulkansu

Vulcan Language PDF (mostly for the lessons in the book’s latter half!)

The Vulcan Dictionary (a little clunky, but @yel-halansu has links to some more polished but still in-development sites on their RB of my original post.)

How to Write in Vulcan (ancient script, there are other fonts like “handwriting” and “Dzhaleyl” but AGV is the one with the letter breakdown)

The Vulcan Alphabet Song (a fan-song I made to remember the fundamentals of the Vulcan Alphabet, ghostwritten by Amanda Grayson, translation in the notes of the original post!)

A Vulcan named Stork works at the Terran adoption agency. Parents always request that he be the one to deliver their child to them.
