Kif, show them the medal I won.

Janeway: I suffer from a very sexy learning disability. What do I call it, Tuvok?

Tuvok: *sigh* Sexlexia…

Honestly they all rock it. If anything Janeway is the one most out of place.

[–] aaaa@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

She's mostly out of place because she's the only one rocking those badass boots. You can't see the fellas' feet, probably because they're wearing space Crocs or something

[–] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Agreed, the Janeway wears the pants around here.

Hers is hiked up a lot higher.

It just makes sense. That has to be 20-25% less material to replicate per uniform. There's coffee in those pants.

By that logic they should recycle all clothing and install a nudist workplace policy ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) im sure the lack of insulation will compensate by everyone running 5 degrees hotter

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

Paris, Kim, Tuvok, Chakotay, The Doctor.... Honestly I'm okay with the nudist policy. Please install.

Neelix in a skant… do not want.

You know, my people used have a saying...

Life is breezy in the Dressa Quandrent

You need your full range of motion in the Delta quadrant.

Does this mean you also enjoyed ~~Orange River's~~ Junkball Media's skant video?

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have no idea what you're talking about so I am gonna go with no.... But I will look it up

[–] dmonzel@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have failed. It wasn't Orange River, it was Junkball Media. https://youtu.be/Jy1SA3-4lfU?si=51yP_C8pl3vZsmZ2

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

Well, this is added to my watch later list. I love Junkball media but I don't remember this video.

Every time I see the skant, two things come to mind:

  • Lotta leg-shaving going on. That or leggings. I'm not opposed to either as an aesthetic choice, but it kind adds a layer to the impracticality.
  • I think the absence of a belt is what keeps these from reading like a kilt or tunic. Either of which would be a fantastic nod to traditional affectation for earthling personnel (as other races do). Instead, the skant sits in this men's apparel uncanny-valley of sorts, where it's neither a dress, dress uniform, gown, or nightshirt.

Due to ~~my own fantasy subroutines~~ exposure to an alien disease of an, ahem, intimate nature, I prescribe short skirts or dresses at all times, for all crew members.
