Star Trek has inspired us with a future where our rights were protected and our bodies and minds were healthy. A future where we could reach out into the stars, explore, connect, dream. How has Star Trek inspired your TREKtivism!? Hailing Frequencies Open! #StarTrekDay

This morning at Pearson airport, I had to check in for my flight. While the agent was assisting me, the agent next to her leaned over and showed me his phone. It said: "Nice to see Lt. Rhys from Star Trek Discovery." I thanked him and told him this rarely happens.
