Do you wanna run this ship?
Yes
Well… you can’t.
I’m not too worried about what my cells are doing, as long as they remember to kill themselves when they’re done
Life is a lottery where we feel like we’re winning all the time until we eventually lose.
As someone whose cells don’t always do the right thing, I feel this comment.
My body is trying to be the federation, but my immune system is made up of angry Klingons
I have the same problem. Sorry to hear that.
BTW, for anyone following this thread, go watch Cells at Work.
One of my best friends has been pushing that show on me a lot. He’d be so pissed if he found out a Trek community was what got me to watch it and not him…
“Have you tried adding tardigrade DNA to your genes? I know it sounds radical, but don’t knock it 'till you’ve tried it.”

One might even say… context is for kings?
I figured getting their asses handed to them by the klingons helped.
…Is this a meme or a cry for help?
Most of my memes are cries for help. You’re the first to notice!
Wait a second… I’m pretty sure Stamets wasn’t in that TNG episode.
No no, none of this makes sense now. I don’t accept it.
You know what you’ve done now?
You’ve disappointed Captain Jellico.
Taking a page out of the Janeway Book of Temporal Mechanics.
Step 1: Fuck it, throw out the book.
I think that would be like allowing a Linux newbie sudoers access.
Seems good in theory, disastrous in practice
