I just realised where the name Dwight Schrute was inspired from

You fuck one time with a ghost, and you are called a ghostfucker for the rest of your life.

So it's a kind of ableism - there are very obviously genetic factors at play lol

Does ghostfucking have a DSM5 entry?

Picard's tea could also be replaced with Lwaxana.

They said weakness, not crippling fear.

Janeway always struck me as lowkey lesbian. I kept thinking her and 7 of 9 were going to hook up. There was so much sexual tension between the two of them as 7 became more human and less borg.

I have some latent memory of speculation that this was an intended thing early on in production, before Mulgrew stepped into the role even, but they abandoned it like most other interesting and innovative ideas. I wouldnt know where to look as far as sources go however.

It certainly would put a different spin on her attitudes towards fraternizing with the crew. Personally I'm not really keen or sold on the 'bisexual utopia' trend that Lower Decks presents, since I think there's both room and potential for characters who are just more reserved about their sexuality.

Hell, it wouldve made the early governess holodeck schtick far more interesting if it was done as an early insight into that aspect of her character.

I thought that about Geordi and Rho, but no it's just the actors like to sit forward and close and dont change their mannerisms when next to the "hot" actor

Okay but... you see how this supports my POV here, more than the person I was replying to⁉️😜🤯

Oh who are kidding - we all are quite aware that Janeway would murder every man, woman, or child alive just for the fun of doing so (oh I... uh... I mean "coffee", yeah...) ☕

A fellow knower. Thank you. Kirk was absolutely in love with his ship in fact the episodes where this is visible are some of the best ones.

“Love. You're better off without it, and I'm better off without mine. This vessel. I give, she takes. She won't permit me my life. I've got to live hers... Now I know why it’s called ‘she’.”

Do you think that Alexander dressed up as the Barrel for Halloween one year and that's why Worf hates him?

I resist putting Picard's faible for Earl Grey on a level with Janeway's obvious coffee addiction! And it's not his weakness anyhow.
And just to be perfectly clear, that's something I enjoy a lot in Voyager: taking this particular bit of weak lore and making it more real.

I think Picard's weakness is Q.

Or Lwaxana Troi, as somebody else already stated.


Can someone remind me what Whorf's plastic barrels are about? I have a faint inkling but cannot fully recall.

For a ship that shakes like a magnitude 8 earthquake whenever the shields are struck, they sure don't like strapping down their storage containers.

It seems like Starfleet regulations do not take into account events that overload the interia dampeners. Star Trek-OSHA would be furious.

If I recall, that barrel was seemingly melting into the one beneath it before it fell

Q is fucking around with the ship, chucks a barrel at Riker but another Q flings it away last second. Same thing with Worf but his life was valued less

all their weaknesses are children, with the exception of Guinan who is chill no matter who she is with

coffee does make janeway pretty manic and unpredictable, and she was able to beat the borg, and the crazy aliens that were experimenting on the crew.

worfs weakness is prune juice and doors.
