Star Trek Deep Space Nine 4x10 Our Man Bashir
What cracks me up about ITPM is the Dr. Bashir angle.
He knows they need the Romulans to enter the war. He’s the only person not in on the plot who knows there’s a bunch of untraceable explosives floating around. He was even there for Quark’s injury, which never got put on the official record.
There’s only one critical piece of information that he’s missing: the vice chairman of the Tal Shiar is currently on the station.
Had Senator Vreenak participated in the grand spy tradition of Mysteriously Appearing In The CMO’s Bedroom, it genuinely would have saved his life.
i think that every few episodes, or at least once a season, ds9 should have cut over to the Infinite War planet to see how kai opaka and jonathan banks were doing
Garak is actually so restrained when it comes to designing his own clothes. I have no problem wearing subtler fabrics, but any time I make something, put on the fucking welding goggles, because you’re about to witness 6 of the State’s most disreputable crayon colors kissing on the mouth.
love the way martok says worf's name. that's his good friend hwoghoarf
Oh to be a Federation latinum miner. You’re a diplomat, sort of. To your ancestors, money was the key to survival. To you it’s an interstellar friendship bracelet. You chart many of the galaxy’s most remote nebulae. Your latinum finds new life and new civilizations (but mostly the Ferengi). You barely interact with people outside your ship. Every year you get pen pal letters from Deep Space 9 thanking you for their allowance and describing their silliest holosuite purchases. Your most beloved hobby, the one you’ve dedicated your life to, is mining engineering. You can put on a killer fireworks show. From time to time you do get visited by pirates.
he's not like other girls. he's not even a girl ! he's a crocodile
(btw! a BIG thank you to all the amazing people who have shared my art on here so far! you guys rule, thank you for saying so many kind things about my silly doodles 💕)
Rom sitting on Terok Nor thinking… you know you have replicators, right?
What if instead of replicating food and tools for the Bajorans who hate you and want you dead and, crucially, do not have drills and shovels for hands, you cut out the middleman and just design more machines to do the rest of the ore processing.
Why are you shuttling heavy, squishy meat beings (who want you dead) to and fro across the stars. You have replicators. Even if you don’t care when your miners get black lung, now you have the hassle of replacing them. Even if you don’t care if they’re happy, now you’re blocking 100 different sabotage attempts per day. The maximally greedy move is to avoid all that nonsense. What you’re doing isn’t even properly selfish, it’s some weird Protestant Work Ethic Neverending Sacrifice bullshit. Most of the overseers wouldn’t even have to be here either!! You’re making your own lives worse for no reason!!!
Of course he doesn’t say this out loud because (1) customers and (2) Ishka’s reforms haven’t happened yet so the Ferengi also aren’t doing greed correctly but shhhh ignore that.
has this been done
Does Federation medicine give people a higher or lower pain tolerance?
Lower - less practice
Higher - they know it will go away

I do appreciate the extent to which the pah-wraiths are reverse minmaxers. Same weakness to chroniton radiation as the rest of the wormhole aliens and yet they always behave as if they’re cramming for a test in 20 minutes.
Today I learned that Rom plays baseball left-handed because Max Grodenchik was too good irl and looked too much like a good player pretending to suck.
I propose that this is the case in-universe as well, and if someone just told Rom to bat with his main hand he would've carried the whole game.
A Star Trek scholar who specializes in historical construction marks. Ex: “where should the injection mold lines go on this plastic toy? Where should the seams go on clothing?”
Because I bet there are a lot of holodeck programs where those marks are present “for historical accuracy” but they’re in the wrong spots/don’t make physical sense. When you’re used to making things in replicators, you’re not thinking about the in-between steps in making an object. It all materializes at the same time. But with older manufacturing methods, things had to be made in a specific order. People would see these marks on old items and try to reproduce them, but wouldn’t understand the logic behind them.
Every thread has to have a beginning and end. Yes, all of them. Why are the parting lines on this plastic intersecting each other, what shape was the mold?? No, that wood grain won’t do a sharp 90 degree turn without a cut. How tf did they clamp that together while the glue dried!
Ironically, most actual 21st century people wouldn’t even notice the “incorrect” markings, they might think something was slightly off but wouldn’t be able to explain exactly what. Or they’d think the crafter did some cool advanced technique to make the object look like they built it a different way. Meanwhile 24th century audiences see all markings as intentional design choices (since there’s no reason to add them otherwise) so they notice these mistakes way more often.
Kai Winn: why does Sisko, a fucking human, gets to talk with the Prophets all the time?? What about me, I'm literally Kai????
Quark with the Prophets: so can you make our Nagus greedy again or what
Sisko’s annoyance in The Reckoning is so justified because he’s trying to unlock the secrets of this ancient Bajoran rock only to think on it and realize:
The wormhole aliens already said he won’t get to rest on Bajor.
They operate on nonlinear time.
He’s trying to talk to a rock. But given (1) and (2) he should actually hit the rock.
And there is NO WAY he can explain how he solved this cheesy-ass escape room puzzle to the vedeks because it’s remixing an obscure bit of human mythology. Literally just has to smash the rock and tank the diplomatic consequences. He is so mad about it and has absolutely every right to be, the prophets are trolling him hard.
