    At Worf’s trial fir his father’s honor the Klingons literally call it a child’s uniform.

    100% they make fun of them.

      They’re made fun of constantly in Lower Decks. I do appreciate though, they go the other way as well, and the Starfleet officers talk about how comfortable they are

    I always wanted to see a species that communicated in light patterns. I imagine aquatic species might do this.

      There’s a species in Becky Chambers’ Wayfarer’s series, called the Aeluon, that has color changing scales on the face used for communication. Coincidentally, they’re also the aliens humans have decided are hot

    Although, let’s not omit that in the 1800s, indoor plumbing hadn’t been quite a thing yet. In fact, it wasn’t until the late 1820s (?) that fancy hotels and civic buildings had it installed, before moving on to municipal works. It didn’t become common in residences until nearly 1900.

    “Drab”? Nah, dingy 😅

    Well, there’s things that never will be right, I know
    And things need changin’ everywhere you go
    But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right
    You’ll never see me wear a suit of white

    Ah, I’d love to wear a rainbow every day
    And tell the world that everything’s okay
    But I’ll try to carry off a little darkness on my back
    'Til things are brighter, I’m the man in black
