      That is who the name is based off of, yes. (I asked a couple of years ago.) However, I can’t remember if it’s actually based off of Stamets from Star Trek, which doesn’t really matter, because the name is still based off of Stamets from the real world.

        My username is based off of the character from Star Trek. I’m a gay man and the Trek character is the first openly gay main character in Star Trek. It meant an enormous amount to me and was really impactful to have that representation.
