We are the Borg, eh? Please wait to be assimilated. Resistance would be inconsiderate

So.... Star Trek....

Okay, okay, so.

Star Trek. It was.... well... fuckmazing. Yes I know there have been some mixed reviews. I've heard people who hate it, I've heard people who love it and... well... let's just say this Trekkie is quite pleased. I am so phenomonally blown away by the awesome that was this movie. Sorry to go all omg fandom but I'm on quite the high right now XD

It was pretty, it was dramatic, it was emotional and it had ALL classic elements mixed quite nicely. (With a couple of classic quotes that came out forced, but that was to be expected). The casting was excellent. Sure I had a couple of Sylar moments where I heard clocks ticking in the back of my head, but honestly it didn't detract from the awesome-ness that is Spock.

Besides a couple of scenes I kind of was like 'wtf?' over, and a little budding romance that just didn't make sense to my head.... it was done very very well.

I'm glad that they took the opportunity to EXPLAIN THEIR OWN RESET BUTTON! Yes I know some Trekkies would say this is a bad thing, and that cannon should be upheld. But honestly it was hard to manuver in the cannon universe as everything had either already been done or would go against established cannon. This was a great reset and I am looking forward to the continuation of the new universe. The thing I'm most excited for? Well, even ten minutes ago I probably would have said "Klingons" but... that's not even the truth of it.... Cardassians. They were s underplayed (or rather overlooked) by a lot of fans and series. So I'm psyched.

So...yes. :3 Star Trek.

    I say that belief determines reality massively, but as you said it may change. Guess we'll see the, won't we?

    I'm actually a little annoyed that they sent the notices to the wrong address. I'd definitely have shown up had I known - it was a murder case, so it would have been fascinating. And yes, my hair ended up looking like a delicious ice cream ^^
    My boyfriend's a Star Trek fan. He's actually a bit shocked that I've never watched any of it.

    I suppose that makes sense. However, if not dependent on belief very influenced by it.

    Indeed, true poly folks are very rare because of how much work and effort poly relationships take and most people just don't want to deal with that and yet want the benefits of it. :/

    Heheh... been awhile since I've been called sweet x3 If you don't mind my saying so, that hints at issues that your mother has within herself, like past traumas that she hasn't learned to cope with properly. She seems to be projecting those onto people around her, in this case yourself and A, and it's colouring her perceptions.
    But yes. It's always good to have the approval of one's parents, but there's no sense sacrificing the things one wants and what makes one happy just to get that approval. If only I could follow my own advice, heh.

    It's different if the actually don't see it, hear it, etc, rather than believing that it's not there. Actually a big difference. Either way, I'm not a philosopher, I don't have all the answers to my philosophy. There are going to be errors unfortunately. However, I have yet to see the problem in this situation. The person does have brains after all.
