So... I did decide to join ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
starbase_idic, after all.
It's a Star Trek-centric, but not Trek-exclusive community. I.D.I.C stands for: "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations," which Gene Roddenberry wrote into the original series as a Vulcan Ideal. You have to be a member to post, but you don't have to be a member to comment on posts (nudge-nudge [/attention-begging]).
And this:
Speciesism in Trek: Humans as Mary-Sues of the Universe?
is something I've wanted to say for some years now. So I joined and said it.
In a bit, I may post about the trope: "In the Future, all Disability will be gone (or irrelevant/merely cosmetic)."
And a bit later still, after the comm's got its feet underneath it, and is more or less steady, I may post about the costuming dilemma for people with visible disabilities who want to go to sci-fi cons and join in the dress-up.
