Minkowski's entire arc is about structure. Her rigid adherence to protocol is what gets the crew into as many messes as it gets them out of! She's comfortable with what she knows and relies heavily on environments where everything is as good as scripted.

When thinking about autistic Minkowski, I do also love that the conclusion of her story isn't abandoning structure; it's using it. She figures out how to take all of this rigid framework and use it as a tool to get her people home safe. Even more than that, she learns to communicate, even when it means admitting she doesn't understand, because she's found people who won't shame her for not catching a pop culture reference. I love.

we talk about the artist formerly known as kepler as 'middle management,' which he IS, but i think we're all sleeping on the fact that he is also a COLONEL. presumably an air force colonel. my man is an O-6. outside of goddard, only generals outrank him. out of the roughly 1.4 million US military personnel, he's outranked by fewer than a thousand people.

my man isn't any old middle management, he's only middle management because he has to answer to pryce and cutter. i don't know if you've ever had the (dis)pleasure of meeting a colonel, but kepler behaves precisely like a colonel given power in a spec ops area would. he (thinks he is) the special-est boy. he's special in the military and he's also special at goddard. he believes all his own press. he's gay. he's homophobic. he's not asking nor is he telling. he is only middle management when Mom and Dad are around. he's SI-5's eldest daughter who received one too many perfect attendance awards. he is the WORST type of middle management. worst character of all time i want to kiss him on the mouth and shove him out the airlock
