Oddbean new post about login | logout The only Trek character I fear is Scotty. He kept the ship running, drank aliens under the table on the regular, and survived for years wearing a red shirt. Dude's probably an unkillable demigod just hanging out on the Enterprise because it's fun.
@ccd3913e I feel I am jumping into a middle of a conversation so please excuse my irrelevance. Spock spooked me. Always wondered what his agenda was. Thought he had some issues with humans. I got to interview him once. Leonard Nemoy that is. His publicist told me I could not ask about Spock. That was during Nimoy's trying-to-shed-Spock period. So, near the end of the interview I said, "You know you're publicist said I couldn't bring up Spock. Why?" He laughed. And opened up.
@ccd3913e Is Scotty a Q then? 🤔
