MINISKIRT GUY RETURNS 💖

riker is using the holideck to fulfil his sexual fantasies ngl i would too

hey look picard also got his tits out in this episode 2 for 1

riker made it 14 episodes without having sex with an alien which is like 12 more than i was expecting

riker has great chest hair. another thing that has disappeared from modern tv

it would have been so easy to write him as the ladies man with fragile masculinity. this show really was ahead of its time even with little things like having the hot masc hero being totally cool with wearing the space version of a bunny suit

riker's putting on a skimpy boytoy outfit for diplomatic reasons and extremely into it

oh no the enterprise has covid. meanwhile riker and troi are on an away mission with hot aliens typical tng ep lol

why does data's make up always always go down past his collar while worf's never does

worf's foundation never matches his neck i feel very bad for michael dorn. in universe its quite funny tho

the dat vs lore ep is SO good brent spiner is an incredible actor
