I am the soft stars that shine at night.
“I’m going to tell you something that I never thought I’d hear myself say. But it seems that I’ve missed you. And I don’t know if I could stand to lose you again.”

RIP Leonard Nimoy. His last tweet was as wonderful and thought provoking as he was always in life
Leonard Nimoy, the Hollywood renaissance man who fashioned a long and prosperous career as the supremely logical and cerebral science officer Mr.
Excuse me while I go cry over a man I never met.
Rest in Peace.
When your friends say “Man, you’re really obsessed with Star Trek”…

This is what’s going on in my neighborhood right now.
"I have the characters, their back stories, their relationships and their goals all planned out. What the fuck is my plot tho" an autobiography by me
So I was watching Star Trek: 2009 the other day, and someone on the audio commentary was like, “I don’t think we ever saw Spock run in The Original Series, did we?”
This is in the part where Zachary Quinto is gracefully, elegantly loping, like a blue-shirted, graceful gazelle… I mean the full on Legolas “I wouldn’t sink in a snowdrift” run, as he goes to save the Vulcan elders in the katric arch.
And literally all I could think of was:
[still seething in the corner over Almost Human being cancelled]
Trek [Star Trek 3], we now know, that your buddy Simon Pegg is co-writing it. Is this gonna be the adventures of Scotty now? Are we worried?
[Laughs] We are worried. Vast, vast Simon Pegg monologues. He sent an e-mail to all of us and we’re all really excited. Because what we enjoyed about it is that, you know, we have a laugh. We wanna make sure that that’s still kind of embedded in there. So to have Simon writing it is kind of the perfect fit.
