Episodes that came to mind after watching #SFA "The Life of the Stars"
TNG "Family"
DS9 "It's only a Paper Moon"
ENT "Home"
And obviously VGR's "Real Life" which I'm not ready to talk about.
All episodes I feel deal with the processing trauma. A glimpse of the cost of doing business in space.
Playing catch up after a busy week but I'd like to echo something @eatatquarks.bsky.social said. I agree that Scotty is a service to others but also a service to the ship. A mark of every engineer in Star Trek to follow!
Didn't know you relocated to Veridian III 😂
Forget cold opens, #StarFleetAcademy Come, Let's Away turns up the heat!
As a sports stooge myself living in the Washington state sector, definitely some hunger games parallels lol. Lots of businesses closed, bars packed and my local movie theatre cancelling sunday showings and showing the Super Bowl instead.
Series Acclimation Mil is my number one for the season so far. Both I feel will remain towards the top as the season keeps moving.
Many early voyager storylines are overshadowed by post season 4! Definitely underrated and doesn't get enough love!
I've often struggled with the ending of DS9. Jake not getting his time. As someone who had a single parent growing up and it being such a pivotal storyline at the start of show, I've long wished for a resolution. #StarfleetAcademy “Series Acclimation Mil” gave us that moment. What a ❤️letter moment.
This one might be my favorite. I thought Discovery and SNW had some as well but I couldn't find any photos online. I knew the GIF king would have some examples in his library.
The best of both worlds one with the planet reflecting in the background is also iconic. That 1000 yard stare effect, showing how much he's gone through. #chills
A cinematography element that lives rent free in my mind is characters looking out windows at the stars. It almost feels like a Star Trek trope at this point and I am here for it. #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy
"They aren't Starfleet material..."
Also Starfleet material:
Spot on Adam!
I've always had mixed feelings Voyager's Blood Fever. One thing that I do know is the episode is a road sign on Voyager's long journey back home.... Borg next three exits.... Tom and B'Elanna relationshipville in 30 miles.... #TrekLiveRewatch

Top 5 Trek Rants POV:
Unbuttoned undershirt Archer was on another level. Like a crack in the armor of Starfleet's best. #AlmostTorture
