The Federation is helping a planet transition out of capitalism to post-scarcity, and it’s basically a huge celebration.

    Spoiler-ish stuff

    Speaking of season 2, I think I have a crush on both Ma’ah and T’lyn. Honour friends, slay enemies, study plants, and be Vulcan as a motherfucker.

    I’ve always liked the theory that T’lyn’s Vulcan captain is her father. He’s looking out for her in his own Vulcan way in trying to help her fit in, but he also trusts her completely. I loved the little detail of T’lyn using her robe’s belt as a headband. She’s breaking her ship’s dress code and doesn’t care who knows, which is oddly familiar.

    And Ma’ah and Mariner need to hook up. They understand each other’s culture and values, and they understand that the other isn’t at all a stereotype of their species.

      I agree, but I strongly encourage an edit about that so a new viewer can go in fresh and find out for themselves.
