Someone today called me "the bluntest edgelord to ever exist" and I dropped my phone and cried because of it. And then somehow knew that I was white when they called me mayo-ass. No idea how they knew.

    If you need a consultation, I grew up in Boston, so I know all the forgotten and niche ethnic slurs.

        My favourite is borrowed from Star Trek: Enterprise, "pinkskin". It's an Andorian slur for "human".

            Absolutely. Jeffrey Combs is a fantastic actor. I will watch anything he's in.

            Though I think Trip was a close second. I loved how he was an open-minded peaceful explorer at heart. He just wanted to see the wonders of the universe. That really spoke to me.

            Such a shame about the show's progress. I feel like in season 4 it was finally starting to be the show it should have always been. The birth of the alliance that would become the Federation, the rebirth of Vulcan, all that was great.
