Janeway on Tuvix: “There’s two people in there and I don’t like it.”
I want to see the chaos Janeway solution.
Dilemma: Tuvix doesn’t want to die. He can do both Neelix’s and Tuvok’s jobs, but he simply doesn’t have time for both, and Janeway is in a survival situation. She needs them both.
Solution? Just Tom Riker Tuvix! We’ll just have two Tuvixes!
Though honestly, this comic is genuinely beautiful, a real love letter to TNG/DS9/VGR era Trek.
Or split the difference and just kill neelix.
They should’ve Riker’d him and then de-Tuvix’d one of the copies. Then they’d have one of each!
Yeah, except that new Tuvix won’t want to die either!
Do the second step quick before he has a chance to think about it. It’s all on the transporter; it could probably be programmed in as a single sequence of operations.
Also, if the pre-duplication Tuvix consents, that’s good enough.
The Geordi/Data one does kinda bring up a good point though. Data is a graduate of Starfleet Academy, put in his time and rose up the ranks to the point of being the 2nd officer and CSO of the flagship. Yet the first episode of the series he’s shown to be naive to most human interactions, most basic idioms and turns of phrase.
This had been posted a few times on r/DI, but a good working theory is that at the academy he never tried to fit in or make friends and simply did the work. In all his postings he never attempted to go above and beyond, but just did his job and what was expected of him, and some of his promotions may have been simply *you’ve been an ensign for 4 years, so you kinda have to get promoted now. It was Picard who saw his uniqueness and potential, and pushed Data to think for himself to help him grow, and as such the other exceptional crew members on the flagship actually took the time to get to know him and become his friend.
But I’d love to hear other theories!

Still waiting for that. My friends say they see me and then just use me and throw me away whenever I don’t matter anymore. It’s been a rough week finding out my best friend and roommate had been just using me for months. Didn’t care about the things I cared about like they pretended. Just wanted to use me.
Where is my Geordi?
:(
Sorry to hear this. Hope you find your Geordi soon, there are good people interspersed among the hooman Ferengi out there.
I have nothing to add, just to say that I wish you peace.
Oh, and that your ex-bestie gets an incurable case of crotch rot that burns with the fire of a thousand suns. That too.
I just wanna forget about them to be honest. Like they left stuff to last second constantly and routinely fucked me over financially, having to ask friends to cover and ruining myself in the process in other ways. They then did it again last week, forcing me to magic up $700 to cover their half of rent too and now have to find another roommate. I thought I was broke before but nooooooooooope. I just wanna cry.
I love the art.
I love the message.
The text was a little difficult to actually read though. My brain kept tripping over a bunch of those letters.Overall, excellent!
The only one little ( really just so small ) nitpick i have, is that Picard looks much older than he was in that first panel.
I try to explain to people why star trek is not just boring people saying boring things in a boring looking space cockpit for hours and hours on end, I think this picture explains it very well, nice job!
The way this is drawn is simply adorable!
That is the cutest Akira-class starship I’ve ever seen.
This is wonderful. 🖖

Janeway wasn’t very respectful of what Seven of Nine wanted. Watching Seven of Nine go along with what Janeway told her to be reminded me of my parents making me get a haircut because they thought I was a boy
It’s called an intervention.
A heavy drug addict will not want to get off his drugs. But he’s not only being destructive to himself, but His surroundings as well.
So it is with The Borg. So it was with Seven/Anika.
Dunno why but this brings a tear to my eye today. Maybe it’s because news and especially social media is so inundated with hate, prejudice and aggressive ignorance for the last several days that I think I’ve hit my limit and just wish for even a partial simile of the Star Trek utopia. So tired of the need for so many people to hurt others. Man, what a drag…just need some hope.
And sometimes, just sometimes… it’s whatever the fuck was going on in Move Along Home.
May all your chaps be alamaraine
I think I get the references apart from panel 2. Any clues?
Those are Bajorans, with a Cardassian overlord looking down
OFC! I should have noticed the bumps and ear rings.
To be fair, with how oddly abstract it was it could’ve been a lot of things. I thought it was just supposed to be Nagilum or something and was just confused by the (obvious in retrospect) Cardassian features.
