I wonder about klingon OSHA. Klingons don't generally seem cautious, but redundancies are built into them from the ground level. There is no glory to dying in your sleep to a leaky valve.

If the klingons are based on the soviets they have less redundancies than the federation in order to make room for more fightin stuff. Then again most starships seem to be relatively spacious so maybe they’re not making those kind of trade offs.

Old Trek is dead. By including only new characters up until Q, and then ending with the Starfleet emblem the graphic tells the story that modern Trek is queer. While including Garak or ending with a Horta or a Crystalline Entity or a Vorta would be funnier to hardcore Trek nerds, using the delta says that the brand itself is queer. It's just brand pandering, brandering, if you will.

Could have used the Trill that Beverley fell in love with, or the androgenous alien that Riker fell in love with, but the point is that modern Trek is queer.

In this TED talk I will...

A silly little mouse!
“Garak as dopehead” is a plot they should have continued. Just have it every few episodes we walk in on Garak toking up on some new space-drug or suffering from horrifying new withdrawal symptoms. Next week on Deep Space Nine: Miles is trapped in ore processing after the crew locks down the station to try and contain Garak, who is so high on Romulan Meth he’s grown a second, acid spewing, head. Can O’Brien and Garak’s non-acid spitting head survive this deadly game of cat and mouse? Find out next time on Star Trek Deep Space Nine.

He was never a dopehead though, he was self-medicating with the pleasure chip just to deal with his lovely situation in life. Can't go home, stuck betraying his people and unable to help them while everything goes to poo poo.

Not to turn the conversation all serious and depressing here but, “self medicating to take the pain away (mental or physical)” describes soooooo many addicts. The whole episode is about “drugs” and Garak is OD’ing. The metaphors are thick. They literally talk about him building up tolerance.

Garak's addiction was one of thiose "on a very special episode" episodes. Can't be a special episode if Garak gets wrecked every week. Then he's just Otis and Odo is Andy Griffith.

I really like The Wire, since it feels like a latter season DS9 episode plopped into season two. For reference, it aired on the same night as TNG’s Emergence.

I love the implication that you are able to go to Bashir, a federation doctor, ask him to trans your gender with presumably no other explanation other than "I want to" and that's no problem at all.
