In general, I'm a firm believer in "stardates were made to be nonsense, and should be treated as such," but they're fun to puzzle over once in a while.

stardates in the DIS era have been all over the place

I don't pay a lot of attention to such things, but I was under the impression that they switched to the TNG-era stardate system following the time jump. Did things smooth out after that point?

Kurtzman has made some nebulous comments about there being some overlap, so I was open to the possibility that this was happening between seasons or during season five or something.

Not a lot to say about this one - I'm just glad Reno found someone.

And we have a stardate!

868858.7 - that puts it pretty definitively after DSC season 5 (coda excepted), assuming stardates are, you know, linear.

 

LoglineWhile our cadets compete to join an elite team at the Academy, a battle of escalating pranks breaks out between Starfleet Academy and a rival school. Tensions rise fast, threatening their newly-emerging bonds and a blossoming romance.

Unfortunately, that's also made me wonder if his days are numbered...

A lot of the CentrePort initiative has relied on the province being a good export route from the US, though.

I don't think it's clear what he means, tbh. I don't see how it could mean anything other than a permanent military presence there, which...isn't currently on the table?

I'm a little surprised this didn't get any traction - I think it would be a fine candidate for a c/startrek post, if it were to expand a little bit on the DS9 episode and its specific parallels to current events.

It's a completely different promise, but the saga of the mayor of Kamloops is kind of enlightening.

There often aren't a lot of actions that can be taken against elected officials. I'm not sure if there's much else they could do.
