Me during and after seeing it:

Put it off for about a week, looking at the "watch next" button and scrolling away a bunch. It's good, but dammit, it hits hard.

Reminder from Iaranis to add s4e2 "The Visitor"

God, I can't watch that episode without calling my dad after.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

Good on ya, dude

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

I haven't watched DS9 in a long time. I don't have a dad to call anymore. Not sure how I'd feel if I watched it now.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I’m a dad, so you can call me.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I'm a dad too. But I can't call myself.

[-] Repelle@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

I can buy you a second phone if that would help.

Tony Todd needs to be in all the things. He is such a brilliant actor that I even looked forward to Kurn episodes, unlike any other Worf's family story lines.

cough Alexander cough

Must be coming down with something. Although, A Fistful of Datas is fun despite his presence.

How tf are you not on the https://startrek.website instance, these gifs are great

I have an alt account there I use when things go fuckey over here, but as for the communities, well let's just say I'm here for various reasons. Also, the gifs aren't mine. I just search and source as needed.

Thanks. Forgot to add that info as I've been doing lately.

[-] laranis@lemmy.zip 2 points 4 months ago

Your post inspired me to go rewatch it...

The first time I saw it I was the son. Now, I'm the father.

Hits hard both ways.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Worfspeed my friend. Bring some tissues.

[-] Klanky@sopuli.xyz 1 points 4 months ago

So, I’m not a big fan personally. Like, I get why people love it but it just doesn’t do anything for me. And I’m a dad to boot.

[-] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

It's not for me either. I really do appreciate what the episode does, mechanically, with its storytelling. It just doesn't land for me. I'm glad so many people enjoy it.

[-] rezz@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

It’s a straight ass episode and I totally never understood the praise. It’s not a skipper for me, but I’ll never rewatch it. It’s a completely middle of the road DS9.

[-] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 4 months ago

I need to actually give DS9 a proper watch. I've only seen scattered episodes out of order. I know that I've never seen this one.

[-] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

It's not one that can readily be swept out of mind.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.
