The hit original animated series will arrive later this fall.

It looks like the upcoming Lower Decks season will be the last one 😭😭 I didn’t have any expectations for this show but it has quickly grown to be one of my favorites. I’ll miss it

    Bro you literally strawmanned my argument. You literally put words in my mouth. I don’t get why you’re always on edge. We’re literally just discussing fucking science fiction on the internet. Did I need to say “essentially calling me an asshole?” Should I have said “being hostile about opinions?”

    I really don’t get you Stamets. Every time we interact you’re just super aggro.

    It makes me feel like I can’t contribute in any meaningful way to threads around you because you’ll just call me super rude things like “utterly wrong” which I think is massively aggressive for no reason just on the basis that we disagree on something.

      I think you are mistaking Stamets’ passion with aggression.

      If you look at our discussion, I think you can see that, while he vehemently disagrees with me, he’s not attacking me. And he wasn’t attacking you either.

      Stamets feels very strongly about this and when he feels very strongly about something, he argues about it with a lot of passion. And I think that’s a good thing.

        That’s definitely a part of it, but the line gets crossed when we stop talking about the series and start talking about how we’re talking to each other. We don’t actually discuss Star Trek so much as point out different ways we could have communicated to one another.

        I am just not going to comment and interact with Stamets, because I acknowledge the passion, and agree it’s great, but you can have passion and still know how to communicate with people without being seemingly hostile. When you call somebody “utterly wrong” they’re going to be upset, even if you just meant “I vehemently disagree with you” there’s simply more diplomatic ways to get your point across.

        I think we would probably get along better if we heard each other vocally. I know a lot of people who I disagree with when we’re typing but they come off totally different when they’re speaking because you can hear the tone.
