Agreed. I'm guessing this is one of those 'myths' that Humanity has about Vulcans and the Vulcans just play completely into it to have an advantage. But the longer a human works with a Vulcan, the sooner they realize that it's utter bullshit and that most Vulcans are a bunch of lying emotional sluts

Emotional slut:

I mean it's largely Berman at play here, but still.

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 24 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Berman

May his dick be infested with a thousand termites.

[–] aeronmelon@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Old Vulcan proverb.

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Ha! I get it, because termites eat wood! This is very logical. I enjoy this.

You can’t fix everything Trip.

Beaming her out into space is not a solution

Well, DS9 era Miles can fix everything, even a broken marriage. Not his broken marriage mind you.

[–] JWBananas@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

His marriage is fine. It's his own trauma that he's running from. That's why he spends his days fixing everything else and his nights playing dress-up and dolls.

[–] aeronmelon@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

I read that in Trip's voice.

Wasn't Spock originally supposed to be an android, but they changed him to space elf because of budget?

I could be making this up. I feel like that's something I read though.

That would explain the no lying thing.

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not sure about android but he was supposed to be Martian and have red skin. However there were a lot of complaints about 'devil' comparisons.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I was mixing things up, it was phase II that was supposed to have the Android.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

IIRC, it was the Vulcan science officer in Star Trek: Phase II that they originally wanted to be an android.

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's exactly what it was! Thank you

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

We come to serve

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I can't find anything to indicate that, but this novel has a wild plot involving android versions of seemingly half of Starfleet.

most Vulcans are a bunch of lying emotional sluts

Vulcans = twinks in their early 20s?
