So I recently embraced and continued my love of Star Trek within the last two years. I think back to First Contact Day and how many Trekkies like myself ate a yeah you kind of forget that what they’re doing kind of forget that they’re not on a starship where they can do this as much as they want a meal of pierogies, salmon, and tequila while watching the movie First Contact.

Are there any similar ways people celebrate Star Trek Day?

I walk down the street and push anyone wearing a red shirt into traffic.

Follow-up question: do we want to start one, in this space?

[-] hopesdead@startrek.website 4 points 3 months ago

I would.

It’s unreasonable to have a special tradition every day of the year.

What makes this a tradition? Do you go every First Contact day or something?

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 3 points 3 months ago

Nothing, it's just close by 😆 And the X-Files museum is on the way.

You mean like Captain Picard Day?
