yesterday I was at gamestop and a man in full Data cosplay walked up to the front counter and I did a double take so hard I nearly broke my neck. So, he walks up and the cashier just casually smiles and goes “How’s it going, Data? What can I do for you?”  and Data goes, “I am doing quite well. I was just wondering when you guys would have Destiny 2 in stock.” This mans……literally did not smile or emote at all. He went all in. The cashier was totally non fazed. I, however, was completely shitting my pants cos ya’ll DO NOT understand how good this dude’s cosplay was. It really looked like fuckin data teleported into the middle of game stop in rural ohio to ask about motherfucking destiny 2.

The only time he broke character was when I was stealthily trying to stare at him and thinking about asking for a pic when he was walking out.This dude. Looked at me, completely expressionless. and WINKED at me. Someone collect ya mans he wildin lmfao

The wink isn’t even really ooc I think he would totally do that

I can’t believe Data violated the temporal directive just to buy Destiny 2

i’ve seen a lot of good character dynamics on my dash recently but there’s an excellent one i think you’re all forgetting: two people who are the smart, sensible voices of reason respected by their peers for their level-headedness and intelligence when they’re apart, but who turn into unholy chaotic disasters with zero impulse control as soon as they join forces

like they each have an IQ of 160+ but whenever they’re together they cancel each other out and regress to utter Dumbass Bastard Mode™️

I've said all this before but I still love this pop culture liminal space star trek occupies where like.. It's iconic. It's massively influential. It's genre defining. It holds historical significance. Everybody knows about star trek. But it also takes a certain type of nerdass to actually actively participate in Liking Star Trek

everyone’s gathered around to watch Kira drink Quark’s decaf concoction….. how sweet, team bonding.

you know it’s a slow day when they open the little plastic gate that usually keeps quark out of ops

The backdrops in TOS are certainly a choice however I do appreciate how often they have characters stand in front of a bi flag gradient

Kirk asking if there are men on the planet while essentially standing in front of a bi pride flag is so iconique

i think about this every day

i still think about this every day

i love tumblr’s trekkies just because there’s like 200 of us and everybody follows everybody so you get to see a given post go from 12 notes to 2,045 notes in the span of like 6 hours as everybody sees it reblogs the hell out of it

do NOT separate them

What if when we were born we were each assigned a Wikipedia page like a social security number would that be fucked up or what

do you mean a wikipedia page about us? or do you mean some baby is arbitrarily given the rights and responsibilities to update the paramecium article?

ok I did mean a Wikipedia page about us. But keep talking I like where you’re headed

What's your government-assigned Wikipedia page? (No rerolls. I am in charge of "1929 in Wales" now. Not a great year, some bad floods in November.)

reblogging yourself feels weird but every now and then this gets a little flutter of new notes and I realise I’ve forgotten about this lovely scene, so have it again folks.

I hate buses so much. Trains are easy, reliable, straightforward. No nonsense. You can trust them. Buses are evil, deceitful creatures who delight in your suffering

This will always be my favorite gifset. Ever.

im morally obligated to reblog this every time i see it

watching ds9 for the first time. was not expecting these two to be the characters with the most sexual tension

I have this headcanon that when Worf was trying to get into the Academy he couldn’t find an officer to sponsor him because no one was willing to sponsor a Klingon’s entry into the Fleet.

And then one day he gets word that not only is an officer willing to sponsor him, but it’s one of the most highly decorated retired admirals in Star Fleet. And Worf has no clue why he sponsored him, but it gets him into the Academy. And it’s only after he’s been in there a while that he gets the opportunity to meet the Admiral. And he marched up to the old man and asks in that blunt, Worf-esque way why he of all people would sponsor a Klingon in the Academy. And in response, the Admiral slowly smiles and steps closer to him (something no one has ever been willing to do at the Academy) and tells him, quietly, that he may have been born Klingon, but he was “Made in Russia” and “Russia only makes worthwhile things.”

And with that the Admiral shuffles away, leaving a confused but pleased Klingon cadet behind him.

And that’s why Admiral Chekov is Worf’s Star Fleet hero.

Okay thinking about that one deleted scene from The Wire script where Sisko mentions he and Curzon worked at the Federation Embassy on Romulus and his Romulan friend was arrested by the Tal Shiar (calculations w Sisko’s age put this around 2360), what if they were there at the same time as Garak? Like the Embassies are probably clustered pretty closely together to keep the aliens in a single area so if they were in the same city, there’s a good chance they would cross paths with each other at one time or another.

Curzon Dax fucked Garak

I’ve always thought Jadzia and Garak would make great friends and peak wlw/mlm solidarity but THIS explains why they avoid each other and are almost never on screen together

Oh okay. So not from a script from the HBO series The Wire.

you have to fistfight your tumblr pfp. do you think you'd win
