Also, bless Nichelle Nichols for doing some great voice work on this show, herself. #TOSSatNight #TASSatNight
"Twice your power level!" Hell yes. I love it when a bully gets their due. But did it have to be through Alexander? Really? #TOSSatNight
I do like that the episodes is staged as a Greek play, as a Greek play. We're watching the audience watch the players. Oh, and heeeeere we go! #TOSSatNight
See, the trope of using science to uncover a key detail that forwards the plot is central to a good Star Trek episode. It's why…and forgive me for saying this…that "Plato's Stepchildren" despite its absolute disaster story, is better than SNW's "The Griffin Incident." There, I said it. #TOSSatNight
"... I thought it was me, my mind that couldn’t move a pebble. They even told I was lucky they bothered keep me around at all, and I believed them...Look down, don’t meet their eyes. Smile. Smile. These great people, they were gods to me. But you showed me what they really are." #TOSSatNight
OK, Alexander's speech about being the constant victim of their abuse genuinely moves me. It took me 40 years to internalize this message. "It wasn't me. It was them." It was them. #TOSSatNight
Goddammit, Shatner commits. No matter how ridiculous, he will find the humanity in the moment and draw on it. The man is fearless when it comes to stage art. I would pay real money for a Shatner Equus. #TOSSatNight
"Size, shape, or color makes no difference." ARE YOU LISTENING STAR TREK STARFLEET ACADEMY HATERS????? #TOSSatNight
A psychic tantrum with stuff flying everywhere? Or an average night in my house as a child? I forgot how much this episode triggers me! #TOSSatNight
So they're doing the greek equivalent of a forever renfaire? A greekfaire? #TOSSatNight
"The Enterprise is responding to a desperate distress call." As opposed to the non-desperate distress calls? #TOSSatNight

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor
The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

Would “Casablanca Of Oz” be the story of Humphrey Bogart following the Yellow Brick Road, or of Judy Garland navigating Vichy-controlled Morocco?
