Congratulations, you just (re)invented programming 👍

I was thinking about how there's been a couple of times in 4:3 Star Trek where an episode written for one series gets repurposed for another series: ie, TNG's The Child from season 2 started as a script for the canceled Star Trek: Phase II show.

The thing is, they have to swap around characters when they do this. It's not Captain Kirk anymore, it's Captain Picard. The doctor is Crusher, not Bones, etc.

I was thinking it'd be amusing if some future Trek show started requiring that scripts be written to make this easier to do.

Like:

SMARTGUY: Captain! ENGINEER says the core is nearing collapse.

CAPTAIN: Understood. SCIENCEGUY, get down there and help with the TECHTECH.

TACTICALGUY: Captain, permission to engage the enemy ship?

CAPTAIN: Granted. PILOTGUY, evasive maneuvers, MAKEITSOPHRASE.

I love Batman but hate the reasons other people love. Yeah he’s cool af and everything but the aspects of him as a father figure to the Batfamily, brother to the Justice League, and the duality of him as a hero being one of the greatest but as a person him being as bad as some villains is way more fucking interesting then him being some bad ass human who can fight gods.

Writing Heroes Who Don't Suck

Writing Heroes Who Don’t Suck

Who do you root for?

In your own life, this question is easy. We root for ourselves. A lot of the time we root for our friends, our family. We almost always root for the dog. I mean, even in Cujo, the horror-novel by Stephen King where the dog is killing everyone? A lot of us still root for the dog.

But when we write books?

We want to root for the hero. The hero is who we like. The hero is who we…
