🖖 Discovery S03E05: Home is never quite the same when coming back after a long absence. Particularly after a 930 year absence. Loved the crew geeking out over the ships and structures they were seeing. Not too surprised the Federation’s a bit prickly. Still going strong!
@djwudi Yes. I was watching with my brother and I commented “Such nerds.”
@macgenie Said with love, of course. I know I’d be doing exactly that if I were in their situation!
@djwudi I think all Starfleet Admirals are required to be a bit jerky. He’s just following in the grand tradition.
@ted It’s true, and overall, he was far better than many we’ve seen. It appears that even all those years in the future, even Starfleet has held onto the grand tradition of allowing people to “fail upwards”.
