Sometimes I wonder how it would feel like to be an ordinary citizen in the star trek universe. Every week you hear the weirdest stuff in the news. Oh, the enterprise crew literally found god and then killed him? Well okay then. Some cyborg zombies tried to eradicate us? Sure sure. Now we're at war with an empire of shape shifters from the other side of the galaxy? Whatever you say. It's only about 10% weirder than the real news we get in the present.
