For what type of battle? I'm not gonna choose a frogmouth for daily battle. But also I won't choose a bascinet for jousting.

Each person's mind's eye is different. Some people can keep a fully formed image in their mind for hours. Other for minutes and some people can't form an image at all.

People are weird and run the full gamut of abilities.

I think Carol is going to ask Us to research how to get rid of Us. Since they'll do things that have destructive potential towards themselves if it makes Carol (or other uninfected) happy then they shouldn't have a problem researching how to cure the infection even if it leads to their ultimate destruction.

It takes years to get good at anything worth being good at. That's just life.

If you want to be good at something you'll find the time. Especially if you like doing that thing.

You gotta watch The Death of Stalin if you haven’t. It’s a black comedy and that screenshot is from it.

The tholian was frozen by Phlox on NX-01 when it started transmitting. The gorn, Slar, was killed on the Defiant using gravity plating.

Additionally, giving the robot features of a human-like face makes it easier for people to interact with them.

Not really. You run into the uncanny valley phenomenon if you make them too human like.

I think The Culture by Iain Banks has a good way for robots to show emotion. They use color instead. Make sure the colors are standard and it will work fine.

I demand a full investigation into this obvious genetic manipulation. She had to have violated at least a dozen regulations if she had warp ten salamander babies with her crewman...

Minutes after Neelix chucks Michael Jonas into a plasma fire, thus disintegrating Michael Jonas, he's cracking jokes with Tuvok. That's like Khan Noonien Singh levels of cold if you stop and think about it. What does that jovial exterior actually hide?

I was inspired by French Locutus and The Treachery of Images.
