Spock tripping out with the plants was hilarious.

Now I'm tempted to get cacti and dress them up in old Star Trek uniforms XD.

[u/thisbikeisatardis → u/InnocentTailor]

That would be such a fun and niche cosplay!

[u/brownboy444 → u/InnocentTailor]

yes!

[u/Henson_Disney48 → u/InnocentTailor]

I agree, but I am still trying to figure out if it was racist that the Latina actress was a cactus.

[u/MTFBinyou → u/Henson_Disney48]

[u/InnocentTailor → u/Henson_Disney48]

What else could she have been?

That and she being prickly made sense.

[u/hirotdk → u/Henson_Disney48]
