 An acknowledged fan of Star Trek, King Abdullah (then a prince) appeared as an uncredited extra in the Star Trek: Voyager second season episode "Investigations". Voyager executive producer Jeri Taylor commented, "Take away the title and the trappings, and at the core you have a Star Trek fan." (Star Trek Monthly issue 16)

Abdullah's cameo was arranged as a surprise for him by his US advisor. The prince – who, at the time of his cameo, was thirty-four years old – enthused, "I would have been thrilled just to visit the set but this is too much." After being put into makeup, given pointed sideburns and then fitted for his uniform (a lieutenant of the sciences division), he rehearsed and shot his scene. (TV Guide, 17-23 Feb., p. 26) He appears in the episode's opening scene as a science officer who speaks with Harry Kim as the scene fades in. He was not given any spoken lines, however, because he was not a member of the Screen Actors Guild (now SAG-AFTRA). After filming his cameo, he was crowded by well-wishers, including Robert Picardo, who secretly presented the delighted guest with an autographed picture of himself in his role of The Doctor. (TV Guide, 17-23 Feb., p. 26) Abdullah subsequently gave a party for the Voyager cast. (Star Trek Monthly issue 16) During his time on the Star Trek: Voyager set, Abdullah also invited Robert Picardo and Neelix actor Ethan Phillips to his own country of Jordan, an offer that Phillips took up during the hiatus between Voyager's second and third seasons. (Star Trek Monthly issue 20) Picardo also apparently took up the offer, where upon their arrival, Abdullah "arranged tours of the country's historical monuments, he had also laid on a mini-convention of the programme's fans." [1]

Abdullah was crowned King of Jordan in 1999.

i understand the argument and he's technically correct under the most monstrous possible interpretation of the law it's just that I don't understand how anyone could want to live in a society with those ideals
Scalia was what happens when you put the rules lawyer from your D&D group on the supreme court and let him run circles around everyone to reach the most repugnant possible decision.

Imagine living in America and working in the American justice system and still thinking it's good enough to be trusted to execute anyone
The justice system can't be trusted with matters of life and death, that's why they decided that cops are allowed to murder anyone and enacted Stand Your Ground laws so that white people can murder any non-white person without any questions being asked.

I think the big random cameo from TNG was Mick Fleetwood as a giant fish man.

I think it's intended to be a woke take, because the chapter involves Israel offering full citizenship to Palestinians and fighting the extremest jews who don't agree.

president Taft’s home was burgled by serial rapist/killer Carl Panzram to the tune of $40k. Panzram took that money and bought a yacht, which he used to lure sailors out to sea where he raped and robbed them before shooting them in the head with the m1911 he stole from Taft’s mansion. he did all this because Taft was secretary of war when Panzram was sentenced to two years in Leavenworth.
