That’s Zalbag on the right, but Dycedarg has a beard, and a frumpy robe too I think.

Ahh gotcha thanks for explaining, I’m sure I saw their posts in my feed then.

Sorry I’m still new here, I can’t decode this meme. One of the mods is no longer active?

an impromptu thread concerning beans

I will see my dream come alive at last 🎵

I will touch the beans 🎶

And after he beans back out:

Lord! It's a miracle! Man up and vanished like a fart in the wind!

I think the mirror universe arc was the best.

As someone who enjoyed S1 the most, I completely agree. The closest trek yet came to “prestige” and then it slipped away :(

“The house I grew up in was built by the Dublin Corporation,” Meaney says.

“How could we build houses then and can’t build them now?... It’s fking Thatcherism, Reaganism, the neoliberals and the trickle-down economy that Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael both bought into, [the idea] that the market will sort everything out. B***ocks.”

Our boy doesn’t hold back and I’m here for it! Wink

Archer Golem in Altus Plateau is one of the worst offenders. Edit: the one by the draconic tree sentinel

Because of the extremely common parlance “drop out of warp” I want to say it implies that the ship keeps moving afterward.

When I run and carry my coffee it is “at warp” but when I stumble and drop it then it is no longer “at warp” but yet it still falls away from the point I dropped it.

But when you drop an abstract there is no implication of movement; when I drop a bad habit it just ceases to exist.

But since the ship still exists after dropping from warp, this is unlikely to be the intended meaning.

Ergo ships drop from warp and that dropping imparts momentum/inertia to ships.

#9: the daily performance

 

I actually read somewhere that Archer did nothing wrong and afterward I began remembering all these scenes haha.

Archer did nothing wrong

As an Archer fan… bwahaha. He knew it was wrong, there’s too much dialog around suspending moral codes and the like.

Eg one of my fave episodes Harbinger:

PHLOX: Captain, this man is dying a painful death. To keep him conscious is unethical.

ARCHER: Until I get the answers I need, we're going to have to bend a few ethics.

PHLOX: Very well, I'll do what I can.

Kale if we can count his cut dialog about the history of the nomadic merchants.

Otherwise Diallos. He lost his maiden, he joined the wrong gang, he lost his brother (to that same gang!), and finally redeems himself to save Jarburg. One of the few quests with closure. Insert “Fire Spur Me” gesture 💪

 

They're the things we carry with us, the things that make us who we are. If we lose them, we lose ourselves. I don't want my ~~pain~~ privacy taken away. I need my ~~pain~~ privacy!

 

Also, Engineering: divert all life support to shields and Helm: initiate attack pattern alpha 💪

 

House of Quark is a high point where he saves Quark’s life and allows a Klingon woman to inherit her own house.

Tacking Against The Wind is a low point where he is reduced to a cartoonish mustache-twirler.

 

The movie’s still great, but the book was really that amazing.

 

Possibly unpopular opinion: Harbinger is one of the absolute best episodes of Enterprise

 
 

These episodes live rent-free in my head.

 

They cranked it up way past 10, all the way to 24.

 

I look at you, and I see the person I was three years ago. The explorer that my father wanted me to be. I lost something out there, and I don't know how to get it back.

This one hit me hard after everything that happened.

 

I'm finding it a very root-beer-flavored entry in the franchise.
