I’ve been away, but I skim lemmy every now and then. I noticed the uptick in start trek shit posts. I actually really like them. I don’t really watch the show, but my friends are fans so I get some of the jokes. I even went to a con with my brother in law for his birthday. Besides something about Picards flute I had no clue what was happening, but the excitement was infectious.
I’ve been on the fringe of a few communities for quite some time, so I know how it feels to be constantly looking for a place you fit in. I’m glad you found yours op. Not going to say the thing, but all the best.
On a more serious note, I’ve seen a lot of comments on eg. [email protected] echoing the same sentiment, and many people who haven’t really watched any of the Treks seem to enjoy the memery. I think it’s somehow, I don’t know, cute? Something about it just makes me go “aww” a bit, like here’s us nerds making our nerdy little memes about our nerdy utopian space opera, and then even lots non-fans find something fun in those memes.

WHY DIDN’T YOU SAY THE THING‽

Agreed. I couldn’t have put it better myself.
No. Say the thing. Say the thing or you don’t mean it.
Ok. R2D2 is my favourite Star Trek character
