Why was I delusional enough to think when Purple Data said "I have to get back to Geordi, he is my best friend" he was actually going to say "I have to get back to Geordi, I love him." ??

The power of Lower Decks is so big in my brain I thought they would soft launch Daforge in the Purple Dimension ™️

Just finished reading this book and I was bending over my knees laughing like a maniac while reading this chapter. Do not mess with The Lwaxana Troi when she gets angry. Q had it coming and I have never been more satisfied in my life 😂😂😂

TNG #18: Q-In-Law

Lwaxana Troi tells Q that she's going to cut his dick off

I've been thinking about Dr Pulaski from TNG. Like, very clearly a character meant to be a McCoy to data's spock. But the thing they missed entirely was the fact that McCoy still fundamentally cared about spock and his well-being, while Pulaski's treatment of data only works to further this idea that she thinks he is a cold hearted machine and she harbors no love for him.

And since everyone and their mom (me included) fucking LOVE data, instead of getting a "haha misanthropic yet lovable doc" role, she got the "get your FUCKING hands away from MY CHILD" response

"Hurt, Comfort, Warmth" - Data and Julian, Geordi and Garak, from the "Lab Rat" and "Exposure" chapters of my TNG/DS9 Bad Things Happen fic.

"Captain, why is the chief engineer named Joey LaFart?"

"don't worry about it"

Do you think Geordi knows you have to kill him to pass the bridge officers' test.

Star Trek makes me soooo crazy cuz you got Picard saying things like "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose."

And Data saying things like "I would gladly risk feeling bad at times, if it also meant that I could taste my dessert."

And Bashir saying things like “You can't go through life trying to avoid getting a broken heart. If you do, it'll break from loneliness anyway."

And Odo sayings things like "It has been my observation that one of the prices of giving people freedom of choice is that sometimes they make the wrong choice."

And I’m just supposed to be normal about it???

More Betazoid Worldbuilding:

Ancient Betazoid word:

Apparently, betazoids aren't born with their telepathic gifts. They manifest around the age of 12:

More info on the psychic links that they share in close relationships:

I referred to something as a "real Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra moment" in conversation with someone who has never seen TNG, and let me tell you, that was a real Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra moment
