Part of what makes DS9 feel so real and alive is how many kinds of Guys it introduces.

Like I just love "Guy who sneaks into the offices of famous Starfleet captains to take a picture of himself behind their desk". It's both:

Perfectly plausible for there to be someone like that.

Incredibly funny.

Also shoutout to the guy in the baseball card episode Jake and Nog were bartering with, who was trying to crack imortality by "keeping his cells entertained". And then he became friends with visiting Weyoun who heard him moving around his illegal medical supplies downstairs and became genetic experiment besties(?)

His phrase "soulless minions of orthodoxy" will never be topped

ODO (off monitor) There's no record of a Doctor Giger being assigned to those quarters. JAKE He was there, Odo. NOG Maybe the soulless minions of orthodoxy finally caught up with him. ODO The who? JAKE We don't know who they are, but they were after Doctor Giger's Cellular Regeneration and Entertainment Chamber. ODO His what?

SPOCK HAS A MATING CYCLE?????

Welcome!

if I was matt murdock and I found out the same chemical spill that blinded me and lit the world on “fire” turned a bunch of turtles into pizza loving ninjas I would lose it actually

I’m not going lie the thought of matt finding out he’s radioactive ooze brothers with this particular version of the tmnt has me in tears

imposterogers

matt, trying to recount his childhood and ignore the smell of turtle, three day old pizza, and sewer: …..so yah, after my dad died I was basically on my own.

the turtles, already planning on buying their radioactive waste brother a shirt that says “I fell in radioactive waste and all I got was these glasses”: cowabummer dude. our dad’s a rat

The whole photo is gold but I especially like that the automated feeder is taped to the fucking floor.

Herding sheep, looking after kids, and playing healer in videogames: every day you're surprised of the sheer innovative genius of how they'll find the most inconvenient goddamn places just outside your reach to get hurt or put themselves in lethal danger.

Isn’t this sheep in real life?

Children in real life also.

homunculus-argument

It. It literally did. That was literally precisely the point.

I have no idea how the hell I could possibly express myself more clearly.

IT'S LITERALLY RIGHT THERE.

And if you truly cannot imagine this, if you're convinced that it will never happen to you, consider this one thing.

Would you want scammers to know the state of your loved one's dementia?

I think it's insane that even in the most leftist and "progressive" spaces the idea of equating morality with looks is alive and present and no one fucking bats an eye at it. like racists and mysoginysts are always portrayed as fat and hairy and generally unkept, as a contrast to the morally good and attractive leftists of course; people will have no problem being genuinely fucking awful about someone's appearance if they're deemed to be a "bad person". and the worst part is you point all of this out and people act like you're reading too much into things like no dude you gotta start using your brain more

If I were a murderer, and I'd meticulously planned a murder, and then I turned up at the place to do the murder and found that world-famous-murder-solver Hercule Poirot was also there, I would simply not do the murder.

"this suicidal person is so stupid for believing nobody will miss them. i remember people i haven't talked to in years lol"

ok but are you present in their life enough for them to realize that?

beef-estrogenoff-deactivated-de

we can all say after the fact that we cared for our friend who committed or disappeared or whatever. we can even mean it when we say it. we can think about them. but did we ever act on it? did we ever even make them feel like we were there? "nobody would care if i disappeared" is not a literal phrase. of course they know that people would care. what the phrase conveys is a deep sense of alienation that can't be mended by implying stupidity on their part.
