forgot i love sci-fi a normal amount
#like look ok. i always think like: man i don't like stuff with dense specific lore. i'm a themes and concepts guy over everything#and for some reason i'm sat here thinking sci-fi is all dense worldbuilding all the time#but whenever i get back into smth sci-fi i'm like. Oh. I ACTUALLY love this forever and ever? and ever?#and i have done this cycle multiple times#look i enjoy both star trek and star wars pretty shallowly but both were important to me growing up#and like i think sci-fi is such a perfect vessel for xenobiology concepts and relevant social commentary#while also just having one of the Coolest aesthetics#i love spec bio and i love applying current world issues to far-flung but still grounded situations#and i love robots and androids and ai and mutants and aliens and cyborgs#i love space#sci-fi! man!#this is cause i watched the first episode of starstruck and i'm pretty sure from the teaser that the captain just got brainjacked#by a parasite#and i think it would be such a cool character turn if zac started playing as said parasite instead#especially as we just came out of skipper like yelling at and being so mean to his whole crew and saying he was gonna fire them#i think it would be sick to do a 'they like the parasite better' thing#though i've gotten a kick out of skipper so far especially just how fuckinh done he is
