Excerpt from Jake Sisko’s documentary about deep space station living.

We need a DS9 episode where strange occurrences keep happening at 3 am causing the main cast to have to get out of bed and investigate STILL in their pajamas. Also there is no power so they have to walk around with flashlights. also they think that it's ghosts. also i think that Odo should wear pjs too and it turns out he just materializes them at night to fit in.

this is the pajama HC so far

I thought probably I should post this as well. It's an animation I'm doing for Garak and Bashir. It's only 1/3 done, so I'm *Still* working on it.

But I thought I should post it here

I only have the Chinese and Japanese subtitles sorry

Ultimately I think the best ending for garashir is that bashir fixes garak and garak makes bashir worse

[normalmammal]

I think by the time they start dating garak has turned all of his obsessive energy on to bashir and is constantly like “I’d kill for you doctor just so you know. I would do worse than killing. Just say the word” and bashir goes ummm you don’t need to do that but can you fix my shirt I ripped it today and Garak will go oh sure ^_^ whatever you need. Bashir is fully aware of how weird garak is about him but he’s into it psychosexually and he also figures that if garak needs to be hopelessly devoted to someone it might as well be him instead of garaks evil dad

and i have to say, hats off to mr. richard gadd for writing a realistic abusive character like ruben. someone who is fun and charismatic and a good time when theyre in a good mood, but everyone is always walking on eggshells around them to not trigger their bad moods, which are sudden and explosive and violent. and how everyone will dance around to not set these people off, because theyre a part of the family and thats just how they are, so if someone does set them off that person blames themselves, and the others in their family blame them, like "you know how this person is, you should have known better."

even after 3-4 years of not contacting ruben, niall still falls right back into the cycle, because the good times are so good, and the bad times seem preventable. all you have to do is change your behavior and change your words and the way you interact with the world, and go along with what they want and be everything they tell you to be, and if you arent it's your fault for setting this off, this was all preventable and its your fault for not doing it well enough.

all niall has to do is let go of his morals and put his life and career on the line and lie for a person he hasn't spoken to in years, a person who is violent and homophobic and has threatened him and taken advantage of him and treated him and his friends badly, and he's willing to do it because he loves ruben, because ruben's family, because that's how it's always been. and he's only just starting to see that it is an impossible task, that it will never be enough, that ruben will never change because he is constantly enabled and deeply traumatized.

Indeed, it’s remarkable how much a little clarity can go a long way on this show. Much of the heated fan debate about Langdon and Santos this season has stemmed from the fact that—up until this week—we actually didn’t have a full picture of what happened to Langdon between seasons. Here, however, we finally learn the truth: The official story is that Langdon is an addict who went to rehab. Only three people know he was stealing drugs from the hospital and actively tampering with medicine to hide what he was doing, a pattern of behavior that likely wouldn’t have stopped if Santos hadn’t reported him to Robby. 

That helps explain the very different ways Langdon and Santos have been processing his return. From his perspective, he suffered for his actions, put in the work to get sober, and is now trying to make amends with those he hurt. From her perspective, he got off with a slap on the wrist and is now requesting forgiveness without fully owning up to what he did. He thinks he had it tough because he almost lost his family; she thinks he got it easy for avoiding jail time; and the great thing about The Pitt is that both perspectives feel absolutely true to those characters. Langdon is a kind, empathetic doctor who doesn’t want to acknowledge (or maybe can’t even see) the privilege he received as Robby’s golden boy. (The way Patrick Ball delivers the line “You don’t know what I’ve been through!” like a petulant teenager is brilliant.) Meanwhile, Santos is a prickly, ambitious upstart who nevertheless has a moral backbone that Langdon lacks. 

There’s something very gendered about the way both those archetypes are received—both as people within this fictional universe and as characters on the show. We’ve been trained to sympathize with tortured yet sensitive white men in a way we haven’t with bullish yet protective Filipino women. Though Robby and Langdon have basically forced Santos to live with their lie, she’s the one being treated like she did something wrong for feeling uncomfortable. Notably, Langdon’s apology feels like something he’s checking off a list for himself, not something he’s doing for her benefit. If it were, he would be thanking her for saving his career, not opening with a passive aggressive “I know you don’t like me.” (So far his apology to Louie in the premiere has been by far his most genuinely sincere and contrite.)  

ICE crashes The Pitt in a harrowing hour

[oliveshark]

The writers have been sprinkling in hints throughout the season that Langdon isn't fully accepting responsibility for the harm he caused. Him getting upset and accusing Robby of punishing him when he was put in triage after not working for 10 months. Lying to Mel about "It never affected my work", despite him stealing and diluting medication necessary for patient care. The way he was told multiple times by two separate people that trying to talk to Robby would just upset him. Santos making it obvious that she doesn't want to interact with him, but he kept trying to force his way back into a teaching role. His sarcastic and condescending remarks during the teaching case. And then the half-lie he gave Al-Hashimi about "Well I was kinda an asshole to her once :(", instead of "She caught me stealing drugs and I tried to get her fired".

The writers were never going to get us the sickly sweet moment where Langdon thanks Santos for saving him from addiction.

Oh the lesbian drama I've been waiting for.

And wow Garcia. Sure she obviously made clear that she's not looking for a relationship, but she's still being kinda harsh.

Also, and that's just my personal opinion, if you as the less emotionally involved partner realise the other wants more than you're willing to give, you should probably end the relationship before it gets to the point of using the others emotions for your own gain.

On the other hand I am very worried that that's actually exactly where Garsantos is going...

I feel so bad for Trinity, she's having a horrible, horrible day

And just to reiterate, I'm 100% on her side with the Langdon situation. He DID get away without consequences. Going to rehab for your addiction is not a consequence. Actually the fact he was able to go at all, had support from his family during it, and was also able to get his job back is an insane privilege. And just a reminder that it's not even just the fact he committed a crime, he treated Trinity like shit that day and tried to ruin her career by telling Robby she's not a good fit etc. He was a massive ass to her, belittled her and treated her arguably worse than Robby is treating him. And she now has to witness him being so happily accepted back while she still hasn't been able to really integrate with the other staff apparently. And then for him to, in her perspective, belittle her and get praised while showing her that she's still not where she wants to be and that she has so much to learn still? In front of the attending who's already not too fond of her and she's uncomfortable with?

That's already enough to justify her emotions if you ask me. And then the issues with her situationship, her worrying about her roommate, who will now also leave her!, and her having an absolutely horrific day? I would've crashed out in her place, if you ask me she's doing an incredible job keeping herself together.
