Ascent is a deceptively simple episode. Odo and Quark became brothers. Jake and Nog became brothers again. Rom and Sisko were able to connect as fathers of sons. Despite how utterly different Ferengi and Humans are, we can connect through our children. Why can't it be that way here? #ds9 #startrek

Garak critiquing Shakespeare is absolutely hilarious. I love it. He would have a unique perspective on a story like Julius Caesar. #ds9 #startrek #garak

I wonder what kind of meeting happened, off screen, after the DS9 episode Visionary with the Department of Temporal Investigations!! The accidental time travels might not have been so annoying, but then O'Brien did it on purpose and changed things. That might have been an oopsie! #ds9 #timetravel

Rewatching The General's Daughter and realising the 2 Star Trek alums. Zephram Cochrane as General Joseph Campbell. Ometi'iklan as Col. George Fowler. (James Cromwell and Clarence Williams III.)

Well if I had realised I'd identified the wrong episodeπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ˜…. That makes sense, thanks!!

Normally, I can figure these out. I'm at a loss! Sword of Kahless, right? I'd rather engage than look it up.

"Hey, you touched that!"
"I, I know how to read that."

Different fandom but still funny!!

I love one-off character eps. It feels natural. Everyone on Voy just folk, and when a regular person who is just living their life, gets the spotlight for a minute, it feels like when any of us normal folks, get a moment of our own! They're still on Voy contributing. Tabor is now alive and matters!

My unpopular opinion: Troy and Crusher were useless female characters. Pulaski was a better doctor/women/character. It also would have been better to keep Yar, and let us see her work through her trauma, similar to how Kira later did.

Episode 2 of Jeremiah was always so campy to me. But the end where Jeremiah plays Captain Iron, for some reason, hit different now that I'm old. #scifi #jeremiah

Rewatching Jeremiah! This show is so underrated. The Big Death is a scary-ass concept. All things considered, a world rebuilt by 15's and under, some settlements are pretty nice. #scifi #jeremiah

Ds9 is everything to me. I learned how to human from these characters. It's not hyperbolic, tho possibly embarrassing, to say that I don't know who I would be without DS9.

I wrote a whole thread about this episode. They could have done it so much better by talking to someone who has NSSI. Overall, tho as someone with NSSI, B'Elanna did it well, and the reactions of people around her were depressingly accurate.

That's a good one. I also liked her as a Klingon in TNG.

And Beacon 23 disappointed. Won't watch season 2 probably. Maybe later though.

Starting Beacon 23! Primere episode hooked me. It's strange to see Lena with dark hair and Yorkshire(area) accent. I have seen her in other things, just nothing new since GoT. She's fabulous, so I wasn't missing it! #scifi #beacon23

I always imagined that behind the episodes, Chakotay and Neelix developed a deeply spiritual connection and mutual appreciation. Not even friends necessarily, but definitely a safe person for the other. If that makes sense.

I watched this twice. I loved it! It touched on so many sci-fi elements and temporal mechanics!! I'd actually love to see this turned into a series. It's up to somebody above my skill set to figure out how to do that, but I want more. Expanded science/stories, and the chemist's story. #scifi #movies

Oh me too, he saved my sanity! I didn't even care about PNW Geology, but I do now! Lol!

*spoilers* I loved this movie, surprisingly. I do not like Ryan's acting, but I enjoy every other member. Ain't nothin' new under the sun, but this had a fun twist on it. I was actually hoping for a different ending, one where Damian kept the body and went to find Madeline.

I've had my eye on these for a while now. Both tactile. Gotta have that clacking sound. Split keyboards are the best for fast typing!
