Also, that one didn’t seem to leave any scars.

I think that refusing to hold her hand was unforgivable.

I mentioned to my wife, after Sam had asked, that the Doctor had, in fact, been in love at least once, and maybe three times, but I wasn’t sure one of them counted.

Seems I was wrong. That one did count.

I wonder why the old TOS fans like me are less impatient with fundamentals of human existence being presented through the growth of young adults?

I’m a TNG person myself. One thing that I very much liked about TNG, DS9, SNW, and to an extent VOY was the competency porn. (And then totally inverted in LDK)

This show doesn’t have much of that. It doesn’t even have what ENT had, which learning to be the professionals we want to see. This is still kids learning to be adults. That’s a different journey entirely.

Don’t get me wrong, I quite like it. But it has issues. But then, don’t they all?

I’ll stop picking nits when I’m cold and dead. We trekkies have a reputation to uphold, after all.

But I’ve go nothing of substance that I object to. It’s a bloody good show.

In this case, the enemy of my enemy is my enemy’s enemy. Nothing more.

Always has been. Sometimes my enemy’s enemy and I want the same thing for a little while.

Maxim 29.

IIRC, the reason was absolute equality by way of absolute anonymity. You can’t tell what species or gender your fellows are, so it’s not possible to discriminate against them. If any race, for example, required a chilling apparatus, then all suits would have one, although only activated if required.

Or something like that.

I’m sure it’s perfectly safe, and we know the starships are held together as much by structural integrity fields as by metal, but I will be damned before I am chief engineer on a starship with the engines not bolted to the ship.

I would have liked Braca to have one or two more episodes as a scoundrel before becoming a villain. Dukat, with a bird of prey, as it were.

But yes, it was gloriously done.

That waste heat is very humid, which causes corrosion and mold issues.

You’re assuming that they know the first damn thing about their strongly held lifelong beliefs about the nature of reality.

Has he ever apologized for anything? Ever? Even sarcastically?

Will no-one rid us of this turbulent dipshit?

If everything is a national emergency, nothing is.

I am appalled at how well “flood the zone” and “move fast and break things” works to destroy a nation. If sanity ever returns, the response to either action needs to be the death penalty. I don’t know how to properly write a law for that, but it is clear to me that any lesser response will only cause the bastard to back up, and try again.

A consideration, certainly. It might be because the actor passed?

Nog made Captain in STO. It’s not all cannon, but I like some of it better than actual cannon.

Which is the rank he held at the end of DS9, I believe.

I would like to think he made captain, but we didn’t see it.

What do the rules of professional conduct say about a client who repeatedly and aggressively ignores the law and the orders of the court?

Not being sarcastic here, I’m honestly curious. The lawyer can’t control the client, so what do?

Past the JemHadar Commandant, and Nog’s name on the wall, you mean?

We have no guidance or direction on what we need to do,

Wrong. You have plenty of guidance. It’s called “the law” and you went to school to learn how to understand it. If your people get instructions to violate the law, the instructions are invalid.

This is not complicated.

I think is milenials are still good. For a few more years. Also, we are the only generation that can save files, and know where they went.

But more youngsters would be nice.

The sooner the better.
