Craptacular! posted:I watched "For the Uniform" tonight and I'm pretty sure I saw the face a Klingon makes when he has to accept that he has lost honor. The biggest problem with For the Uniform is it's one of the most striking episodes in Sisko's inconsistent characterization. The guy in For the Uniform shouldn't give a poo poo about the events of In the Pale Moonlight.

Picard has its flaws, but this week did feature Patrick Stewart in an eyepatch doing an outrageous French accent. Also Icheb deserved better than dying in a pre-credit sequence getting his Borg implants harvested. I will say though it was a nice nod to contiunity when the evil doctor lady couldn't find his cortical node since he gave it to Seven in the episode "Imperfection."

In the Picard thread, people are thinking that it was because the original actor is such a douchebag that they decided to kill the character off to prevent ever having to deal with him again.

Pick posted:The biggest problem with For the Uniform is it's one of the most striking episodes in Sisko's inconsistent characterization. The guy in For the Uniform shouldn't give a poo poo about the events of In the Pale Moonlight. “In the Pale Moonlight” is murderous conspiracy in cold blood, “For the Uniform” is crime of passion with torpedoes. Eddington personally betrayed Sisko and spends the whole episode rubbing it in and deliberately pissing him off. Sisko consciously chooses to do the villainous thing and sink to Eddington’s level by threatening civilians because he’s just that deep into the conflict with Eddington and feels an immediate responsibility to solve it. What he does to the Maquis colonists is lovely, sure, but it’s nowhere near as lovely as what he does in “In the Pale Moonlight” and I can see why it wouldn’t be as damaging to his self-image. If nothing else, after “For the Uniform” he can tell himself that he always had control of the situation.

On the other side of the coin, holding innocent civilians hostage, even destroying their homes to prey upon somebody who cares for them seems worse than using treachery upon an empire known for its treachery to manipulate them into a war with a fellow enemy when they were plotting to do worse against the Federation. Arguably, Sisko doesn't even give that much of a poo poo in the pale moonlight, his confession feels more performative than emotional, and while that's mainly because the episode is being framed with a cold-dispassionate monologue and maybe he wasn't even directed to show emotion, you could say that in-character he's only weakly feeling the need to file a record of events that could come back to bite him some day. It's not like the bulk of captains' logs are ever listened to anyways. His reaction to Garak was pretty simple, since even if you're willing to support a murder, nobody wants to wind up wind up taking a risk they didn't mean to. The actor and character do come off as inconsistent though, not sure which or both though. God knows he seems to phone it in when he has more light-hearted episodes.

Do Discovery Klingons have any piercings, because I always assumed that dude had a second stream of piss from a Prince Albert instead of a second dick. Crusher did say they have a bunch of anatomic backups in that crummy episode about medical ethics if you really want to go that way. Seems like a deep cut for Discovery though.

It's saying Klingons have two dicks. I'm shocked they restrained themselves from just showing them. The real question is, do lady Klingons have 2 vag, or do both go in one together, or does the other one go in the butt, or do they only get one bonar at a time and the other is just a backup willy I vote backup willy

Klingons having two of most organs is pretty well established. Also there's a line in Disco when someone (another klingon I think) mocks Tyler for not having enough organs for L'Rell.

Klingons hate tribbles because they made all their dicks fall off The augment program was designed to re-grow their dicks, but it circumcised their foreheads Hell of a side effect

It makes sense that aliens would have some kind of different genitalia, although we have it on authority that they can all interface the same with every species somehow. The obvious thing is claspers like a shark, but considering how so much about Klingon anatomy is inspired by crustaceans, it's probably more of an abdominal flap situation.  Or it's just that thing that happens sometimes when your stream randomly forks.

It's a very minor background thing in an otherwise at best mediocre episode, but the latest Picard had a human and a romulan couple at what was obviously a space future fertility clinic. They were having a kid, yeah, but they needed future science to make it work.

It does imply some weird things since we know SOME alien species can hybridized more or less casually (eg Bajorans and Cardassians, or Klingons and humans).

Never seemed to be a physical compatibility issue between the major races. Even the Gallimites with the transparent scrotum.

Well there's the whole thing with the Not-Changelings jizzing in everyone's genepools so I imagine that would lead to some compatabilty between species.

Well, they did that before the onset of multi-cellular life. We can't hybridize with species on this planet, much less ones on planets thousands of light years away.
