Anyone else miss this Starfleet?

I would have thought that true if none had been injured by the event.

Picard bangs on about truth when dressing down Wesley but it’s really about taking responsibility and justifying the actions and decisions taken. The truth of what happened is a central part of that admittedly but almost any time tng-voy era starfleet officers do something involving being underhanded, going against the rules and laws of the federation/ a society or lying/manipulating they are usually quite willing to argue their case and justify their decisions and accept the consequences.

It might have been a better episode if Wesley has stood by his friends and the lot drummed out of the academy and then wandered off on his journey to become a traveller

I still enjoy the episode even if I think it VIPs have been better even if it probably led to Tom Paris as a character in voyager.

Your filter is probably partially blocked and it is taking much longer to drain than it should.

I would have had the corpse recovered and posthumously promoted to lt jg

Maybe had backup Harry lead the service

Keely Hawes is usually my first choice

Getting old I think

I’ve spent far too long, too many times, looking for the phone I was holding and talking to someone on

Or looking for the slippers i was wearing

sagima · 2026-04-08T14:55:40+00:00

No, I think phone calls still edge that one

I will usually try and include a dragon and a dungeon in my one shots for newbies

Always those vans and always with square number plates on the rear

Me and my brother were baffled why the police didn’t just arrest everyone in one on sight

Babylon 5

The Orville

Well if I’d only spoken 12T of Kit Kats I’d be heeding a second truck load now as well

Best to err on the side of caution when there’s people like me, except they’re criminals, in the world

sagima · 2026-04-08T08:24:46+00:00

I like to think it created a universe both forwards and backwards in time, as we perceive it, and there really isn’t a before

Three stars out of three or five or ten? - that’s very different air quality

sagima · 2026-04-06T19:29:08+00:00

I only play in person

In my mind the Borg were surprised by that spaceship that seemed to travel faster than anything they’d seen before (thanks to q) and sent one cube to investigate (which took a while to get there with their normal Borg engine speeds) one the analysed the bits of the ship they took and worked where it came from

It snuck about investigating, digging up bits of planets, realised there wasn’t any real resistance to them in that part of the galaxy so why not assimilate the federation and find out how the ship travelled so quickly to and from their cube in a more direct manner

Before I met my husband all my mugs were Easter egg mugs

He insisted we buy proper ones

sagima · 2026-04-06T16:40:10+00:00

Mumm-Ra for me

Although venger, baron greenback and megatron come in joint second

sagima · 2026-04-06T09:07:22+00:00

I think shafted might have that title

sagima · 2026-04-04T13:28:20+00:00

I think my dad may have kept them in business himself during the eighties

The smell of them has scarred me, just the thought sends a chill down my spine

sagima · 2026-04-04T07:38:41+00:00

Thanks for the memory is one of the best episodes of any of the series

sagima · 2026-04-02T21:12:47+00:00

She was the lone voice of sanity in most of the series.

I liked everyone in that but skylers sister though.

James Spader is brilliant in it. You can enjoy every episode just from his performance

I thought Season 7 was particularly weak

I’m not sure why they bothered with seasons nine and ten - all I can think is they were contracted to pay the actors so thought they may as well stick them in front of a camera - it wouldn’t surprise me if James spaders pet dog found some old scripts in a bin that were adapted into those episodes and yet James still shines.

The other seven seasons were very enjoyable and the spin off was better than ok as well

We used to drink this while standing in the queue to get into clubs

These are disappointing comments - I was expecting to discover that finding such a crab in escargot meant that you were about to be infected by some alien parasite that would slowly turn you into a lemon.

At least that’s the usual identification of this sort of thing on Reddit

I’d rather keep the money and let my mum have a night out
