Didn’t he promise this conflict ending in 24 hours once elected?

Whelp… I’m going to special hell. At least it is ironic in a good way.

I love how this meme format juxtaposes an episode which Riker is accused of murder and rape. Wildly inappropriate to laugh at but we are pulling two screenshots from it.

No human should be treated as less than another. No human should be seen as offensive to another.

Why is Great Britain not getting so much fucking hate for how they historical contributed to this conflict? If people are wanting to legalize hate towards the humanitarian treatment of a whole territory and people, why is the nation that contributed to their existence not being criticized?

The use of the word “preemptive” always makes me think about Maquis.

Or you could have your political enemies lose a kid to the Bajoran foster system as a way to get one over them.

What part of it would be preemptive?

Finally, RockLove have gotten the Picard d’ja pagh restocked! I won’t spoil Picard season 3, but this earring was featured in an episode. Not only was it featured but the actual prop was designed by the CEO of RockLove. The one they sell is made from the same molds.

I had this before but the chain on it broke. So happy I can buy another.

EDIT: If anyone was wondering if they had a Kira Nerys d’ja pagh, yes. It is currently in stock. I wear mine a lot. All my earrings are Star Trek related. https://www.rocklove.com/products/star-trek-x-rocklove-kira-nerys-bajoran-cuff-earring

Why did Richard Daystrom get a research organization named after them? (startrek.website)

In “The Ultimate Computer”, the duotronic M-5 computer was deemed a failure which sent its creator Richard Daystrom into a nervous breakdown. Not only did Daystrom experience psychological distress (probably the most polite way to describe it), but was responsible for a machine that killed upwards of 53 people.

Why would a person responsible for the invention of a computer that unintentionally killed (unintentionally as in, not ordered to do so) get their name enshrined? Is there anything to explain why such a troubled person that ended up killing others in a quest to eliminate the risk of human death, would inspire anyone to name an organization after them?

EDIT: I need to add some complicating facts to this. “Chose Your Pain” (DIS season 1 episode 5) gives Daystrom Institute a founding date of 2256, which is before TOS. So based on comments, likely the duotronic computer is why the name was picked.
