The thing about TNG is that the space aliens and moral quandaries are always like, the least insane part of the episode
#star trek tng
#star trek
#tng
#watching Loud As A Whisper right now
#because I wanted to know more about sign language in the Star Trek universe
#and anyways I'm only 15 minutes in and I have notes
#1) Picard saying 'cluck cluck cluck' to Riker was so ???
#broski who talks that way
#2) your mission is to pick up and shuttle an incredibly important diplomat
#and you're telling me the mission briefing didn't include the fact that he was deaf???
#3) I absolutely don't believe that Riva is some exceptionally talented peace negotiator
#because every interaction he has with another person makes me want to punch him in the face
#4) His initial interaction with Geordie is like... some abled persons weird fantasy of how disabled people interact with each other
#You're telling me this guy is deaf. has deaf parents. and still reacts to other peoples disabilities like they're brand new?
#5) The Universal Translator Isn't Universal If It Doesn't Translate Sign Languages
#6) Why does Picard act like he's never met a deaf person before??? Do they not have deaf humans in the future??
#anyways I understand that this was probably a pretty progressive episode for it's time
#but it ages weird
#like the world building seems very poorly thought through
