"strange new worlds is a serious show"

meanwhile:

- the chief of security is wondering around in a princess dress with a very very small dog

- the pilot is exclusively replying to the science officer's descriptions with "kaboom"

- the captain is referred to as starfleet's boy scout in his file

- the first officer and chief of security are playing enterprise bingo, which mostly seems to be an excuse to shoot each other with phasers

- the nurse is describing things as giving birth from your mouth to coerce difficult patients into medical treatment

- the captain is using soup to ignite mutiny

- the science officer is bodyswapped with his girlfriend and is using it to punch people he doesn't normally get to punch

- the doctor is treating an alarming amount of arrow wounds for a starship with no arrows

- the cadet is always right and yknow what she's rocking it

- the chief of security is recreationally making ensigns cry

- the first officer is very jealous because only one of them is allowed to make ensigns cry at a time

- the chief engineer is very violently befriending the cadet. it is somehow working

It's so insane how connected the internet makes us. The fact that someone on the other side of the world can see what I'm writing in real time. Just wow. The fact that I can listen to my playlist with music made by complete strangers I will never know in Korean, Japanese, Spanish, and Norwegian while lying on my warm bed in my home in America and not even give it a second thought. The fact that I'm connected instantaneously to billions of other people with just a couple taps on a screen.

This is one of those moments where I feel like I really was born in the right generation. This is so incredible. Thank you all for being here, connected to me through undersea cables and power lines. Who all tapped your phones in just the right sequence to find me, and decided you liked me enough to find this message. Thank you. We really do live in a world of marvels. We're so desensitized to modernity that I think we don't take enough time to appreciate how absolutely mind blowing it all is.

Like... This random post I'm typing at 2 am is going to be immortalized forever. That's insane! We're so lucky to have that type of record, and reach, and platform. We're so insanely lucky to be living in the present moment. I'm just so thankful. Thank you to everyone who made this moment possible. The creators of every invention. The laborers in every factory. All the individual consumers and users. My parents, and their parents, and all my ancestors too. All the artists and mechanics and politicians who butterfly effected they way to this moment. Thank you. I'm so grateful to be here. I'm so grateful to have all that I have. I love this moment. I love being here. I love you all.

The SNW musical episode is gonna go either one of two ways:

1) It's a jukebox musical

2) it's all completely original songs

Either way they have the opportunity to be the funniest Star Trek possible and have "Faith of the Heart" be one of the songs.

tomfoolery at an all time high

lmao remember how i didn’t do this? anyway ive been writing this whole time but in very small bursts, and then a lot over a long train ride

in these past 17 days i’ve written 2923 words, which is a lot less than i wanted. i’ve written a few scenes that i already know i have to take out, but i’ve also marked places where other scenes are going to go, and i’ve figured out some stuff for later in the au. i’m not super happy with the amount of progress i’ve made, but i like the stuff i’ve been writing, so it’s okay

word count: 20,509

page count: 41

chapters: 4/13 (heh)

anyway the point of this blog is kind of to get me to write consistently. i have a long stranger things fic that im trying to write—i’m a few chapters in but i want to write everyday. so I’m going to be posting my daily word counts at the end of each day. i know that no one else really cares but hey if it annoys you then don’t follow me. or block the tag. idk what the tag’s going to be yet but i’ll add it in this post once i get one.

i used to have a different writing blog but it’s bogged down with star wars stuff from three years ago and i’m not really into that anymore. so now i’m here. hopefully i’ll use this more consistently, but who knows
