The risk if you do it to yourself is you can continue pinching yourself long after you’ve reached orgasm, and that poo poo will demyelinate your spinal cord if you do it for more than a few minutes, and unless you’re a Klingon, you only have one spinal cord.

Watching Discovery and there's a scene where Saru runs by in a full-on sprint and the camera is still and down low and it just cracks me up.

I wonder how many Klingons have killed themselves minutes before the second spinal cord kicks in? It would have happened to Worf if his loved ones had followed his wishes promptly. When Beverly contacted the klingons about klingon biology they never mentioned it as a possibility.

PS. Beverly is the worst doctor in startreks. How do you not download a biology primer for every species on your ship before you need it.

Yeah I would be reading about alien biology if it were real just because it sounds interesting whether I was ever going to meet an alien or not, and it’s her job to know all about treating aliens and she seems frequently ignorant.

So if Klingons have a backup of everything, could you just take it all out and construct a second fully functional Worf? Could you use the method they used to kill Tuvix on Gowron and get two Gowron’s?

Could you use the method they used to kill Tuvix on Gowron and get two Gowron’s? They probably die real easy. Easier than someone who grew up with half as many organs as a Klingon. A klingon gets stabbed in the liver and walks it off (because he has two livers so the other one can take over while he heals). He won't be able to do that as half a klingon. I'd worry that their organs might also be smaller and weaker than average. They are big, but not much bigger than humans, vulcans, andorians, etc. So they are fitting 4 kidneys, two hearts, two livers, etc., into a body cavity that isn't twice as big. That has to mean smaller organs, right? A klingon may be able to survive with one puny heart, but he's not going to be healthy.

If the Ocampa/Kess (not sure if Kess was an exceptional Ocampa or just one allowed to expand her mental powers) had the best mental training (i.e. more than just Tuvok), what "level" would they be at? Caretaker? Kevin Oxbridge? Q? One of the random "gods/energy beings" from TOS?

They would be inconveniently powerful, that’s why the writers all make them die off before they even need braces.

it was all ocampa, and i think they would've been somewhere just below q-level. they didn't seem to rewrite reality entirely, but they could control matter and time travel, and supposedly would discard material existence entirely to move to an energy plane. i think it's kind of one of the intended ironies of the caretaker loving up the prime directive by meddling, because they explicitly tie the dormancy of their powers to his stewardship in the same way republicans think that welfare makes people lazy.

A lot of the doctors are undercut by the writers having really dumb ideas about medical ethics like when Phlox dooms that one race to die or whatever because that's the natural course of evolution or some dumb poo poo as if evolution is conscious and has some plan and always makes deliberate decisions instead of the reality where species often evolve in insanely dumb ways because of some niche environmental circumstances.
