We are on the Enterprise D bridge. Troi and Riker are entering from the turbolift. Troi has a Serious Business look on her face. In blue text we see the episode title: "Brother."

Star Trek TNG, S4E3: Data has an elaborate 37-step plan to seize control of the Enterprise and (if he felt like it) kill the entire crew. He simply never cared to act on it... until now

8/10 in retrospect, maybe saying all their passwords out loud was ill-advised

If it's any consolation, I really don't think an Outlook out-of-office message would stand up in court as a "resignation." Resigning would need to be an informed, intentional act.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Good old Nova class. Eases the pain.

It’ll be interesting to look back on in 4 years, assuming we still have Internet in our Mad-Max hellscape 😅

One of my favorite TNG episodes. Remember watching this one when I was a kid.

The Enterprise D, a.k.a. "The Deetz," is above an icy blue planet. In blue text we see the episode title: "The Enemy"

Star Trek TNG, S3E7: Geordi gets lost on an away mission, so he does what a normal person would do: mine for raw minerals, smelt them, and cast the metal into climbing spikes using nothing more than a phaser

7/10 I like Geordi better when he's on a planet with no women

So DS9 is 32 years old. Feeling ancient yet?

O'Brien (who can divide by zero) is staring an a luminous alien energy being, which kind of looks like a blue jellyfish nebula. O'Brien is in ACTION POSE, ready to react to whatever this thing has up its sleeve, but Miles in no way looks worried about it.

Shout outs to O'Brien, who gets chased around the transporter room by a cloud and acts like it's just another day at the office

"To you, an alien energy being, your encounter with the Enterprise was the most important thing that happened to you in a century. To O'Brien, it was a Tuesday."

A text post that reads. Look, here's the thing: alice in wonderland's enduring fucking charm is that it perfectly captures the vibe of being a very tired and annoyed child who is nonetheless required to play along with adult nonsense. Alice is dragged from place to place without warning, forced to play stupid games with no good prizes, grilled over her schooling and manners and recitation and dress, scolded, judged, insulted to her face, sent away, given gifts she didn't ask for and doesn't like, corrected incorrectly, been subject to shifting and arbitrary rules, and then when she gets snappish with all this bullshit everyone acts like a little girl's temper is the end of the fucking world. Alice in wonderland isn't a drug trip or a nightmare or a metaphor, that's just what being ten years old is LIKE. that's why kids love it so much. even if they can't quite articulate how, they recognize themselves in it.

Still the best take I’ve seen on the story.

Funny how all Starfleet's time travel whoopsies happen on Earth. You'd think at some point they'd get trapped back on ancient Ferenginar, back when the Ferengi were so fantastically primitive they hadn't yet invented compound interest

7/10 a sweet episode
