Nah, I was raised to be racist and homophobic too. Small town Newfoundland doesn’t help. I’m lucky in that I caught it when I was younger and was able to shake it off a bit easier but it’s not easy in general. Also that sailor sounds like my kinda guy but we’re both bottoms so it’d never be able to work.
I’m really, really, really glad to be able to meet someone else who lists Discovery as their favorite show. Like any show, it has its faults. But due to it not being the carbon copy of every other Trek, people hate on it so fuckin much and it gets exhausting. It’s really nice just to be able to chat with someone who is on that same wavelength. Feel free to shoot me a message anytime by the way. Despite how often I post, I don’t actually chat with a ton of people on lemmy.
Culber… my beloved… I was having a chat with someone the other day about Culber/Stamets at the end of Season 2. They felt it was a bit trope-y or on the nose but I loved it. I see where they were coming from but the first half is Stamets freaking out from what he lost and is able to get it back. But we needed to see that flipside. Both what Culber went through but as well as him not really “losing” Stamets so much as losing everything. When he finally saw him on the table it just clicked. Their love and relationship is probably my favorite thing in the series and would have been my favorite thing in the entirety of Star Trek if not for both Reginald Barclay’s growth from TNG and Voyager and for Grudge.
