For bonus points share one thing you wish would have happened in that extra season

Edit: So many comments about Prodigy not being on here! Well, I am a Prodigy fan too. But I left it off because last I heard Netflix picked it up. Now I don’t have faith it will happen, but nonetheless there is at least one more season planned and maybe more.

On the other hand, even though the last seasons of discovery & lower decks haven’t finished airing, they both have planned end dates.

See, I actually really like the take that alien characters on Deep Space Nine (and also Discovery's first season) have that the Federation are basically like a sort of insidious, outwardly friendly, slow-motion version of the Borg Collective. I absolutely agree that it makes sense for certain outsiders to perceive them that way. But I also think that it's clearly not actually true; Earth is still Earth; Vulcan is still Vulcan; I assume that the other Federation world's would still be recognizably themselves if we had actually enough before-and-after data to compare them. You don't lose your culture just because it's only one of many.

if your gays are less complicated than a lizard with a torture degree from torture college (ex-spy for a nazi germany allegory) and an insufferable twink who thinks he can fix him (doctor from a utopian future earth) then I don't want it

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine "Past Tense, Pt. 1"

[garaks-padded-bra]

Back when i worked in hell ( a supermarket ) the shifts were so mind numbing I had to be resuscitated every 45 minutes via defibrillator, so I decided I was going to make the time go by faster by learning all the ferengi rules of acquisition. So i made this tiny tiny booklet to study when it got slow. It looked like this:

The problem with this foolproof plan arose when a coworker found it on the floor after my malnourished white man cheeks failed to keep it confined to my back pocket. And when they questioned what it was i just

sisko loving baseball is literally so weird. like imagine your boss was obsessed with like jousting or something. he talks about jousting all the time, when you go into his office he picks up his jousting stick and just kind of holds it while he talks to you, and then as you get to know him he starts inviting you and your coworkers to go watch simulated jousting videos with him. then one day his bitchy rival from college shows up and reveals that he not only learned jousting, but taught it to his employees. like he did this JUST to torment your boss, despite the fact they havent seen each other in YEARS. so your boss challenges the bitch to a jousting tournament and he just??? signs you up??? so you learn how to joust, you joust against the bitch rival and his employees, and then you lose
