minus-squareSnot Flickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·edit-22 years agoI’ve always wondered: who is in charge of the ship while the Captain and their Number One are asleep? Like, wouldn’t a starship realistically need a rotating staff and be manned at all times? Edit: Doody shifts. Hehehehehehe.
