It’s a job in Lower Decks which I think makes it canon.
That being said, it would be hilarious if holodecks can be self-cleaning but they still make ensigns do it anyway to “build character”

We didn’t need any more supporting data to cement “cleaning out the holodecks” as the worst job in starfleet
Have you ever had a gas bubble in your gut that shifted and now you feel fine?
What’s ignoble about this simple tailor?
At least he’s not responsible for nemesis
I assume the federation has a treatment that makes your mouth inhospitable to cavity-causing bacteria
Go read the books! The show is ultimately unsatisfying as it doesn’t cover the last arc of the story, but the last season was good
I like the idea that we find out mid next season that they’ve been in a committed relationship with each other for like a year but are keeping it on the DL because monogamy is deeply uncool in their generation.
It’s been an ongoing Star Trek plot line that ship counselors are friggin useless
That’s a pretty fair assessment of the JJverse movies as well.
It has its moments. Season 3 and 4 are better than the first two. It takes a while for any show to hit the tonal balance that makes a good trek. One thing that I think the show does well is fill in the gap between “humanity is a bunch of selfish messy bitches who would prefer to annihilate each other rather than get it together,” and the humanity we see in future series. You’re watching them become less xenophobic, more open minded and inquisitive.
Skip the finale, the episode before is a good finale.
Hrrrng admiral, I’m trying to sneak around but I’m dummy thicc and the warp signature from my nacelles keeps alerting the Romulans
Transporters essentially destroy and recreate people anyway, you have to imagine it is already something that most folks in Starfleet have made peace with, somehow.
Tom Riker is proof that we’re just bags of meat, and consciousness is an emergent phenomenon. The only difference is that instances copies have a divergence point in their experiences. The Bobiverse books explore similar ideas.
But it is hard to imagine those instances wouldn’t want to avoid getting merc’d Tuvix-style. The handwavium way you’d probably try to approach it would be some sort of memory reintegration. Not implausible in Star Trek
He’s a cleaner, a doctor, and also the best transporter tech in the business, better than folks operating teleporters a hundred years later.

Yep, particularly with the Riker clone, it seems like the safest way to do away missions would be to send down an instance of the crew rather than the actual crew. But then what would they do with all those extra red shirts?
This is something that’s been a problem with space combat in media forever. It’s the size of an aircraft carrier, but combat is more exciting if we pretend that everything in space maneuvers like a fighter jet.
Pretty much only The Expanse gets that stuff right.
I don’t understand, what’s hard to like about ortegas? She’s exactly what I’d expect a hotshot pilot to be like.
I think the word you’re looking for is “and.”
On mobile you have to remind it that you don’t want to use the fucking app, and also that you don’t want to fucking log in with your Google account, and yes really I don’t want to use the fucking app, and no I don’t want you to use cookies, and no I don’t care if the app experience is better and also no, thank you, I don’t want to log in
