It is a parody of WWII propaganda posters warning military personnel to avoid "loose women" lest they contract an STI.

The same is true for two Rikers. That’s the entire point of the episode; that despite them diverging at the point of the cloning into two different people, they are still the same person and need to live with that.

I don't think that as the point of the episode. As their lives diverged their interests and desires did so as well. They were similar, yes, but still different people. Will was promoted after successfully evacuating the people of Nervala IV and he became focused on his career. Thomas was stuck on Nervala IV thinking of the woman he left behind, and when he's rescued he wants to rekindle that relationship whereas Will let it fizzle.

To say nothing of Thomas eventually choosing to join the Maquis. That is not something we'd ever see from Will.

Will: Good luck, Will.
Thomas: I actually thought I might go with the name Thomas.
Troi: Your middle name.
Will: I guess we really are different. I never really cared for that name.
Thomas: Well, I sort of like it. I guess I'd better get going.

What do you not get?

You know you're not supposed to read the comments, right?
 

I was going for silly and cute!

I think you were successful. Building on the end of of ENT worked well. And I appreciated that you were able to get the Protogies in there. Really hoping that's not the last time we get to see them.

Sure, and in "The Enterprise Incident" he drinks an unnamed blue Romulan alcohol to keep up appearances while leading on the Romulan commander. However, in "Requiem For Methuselah" he consumes Saurian brandy simply to do so.

Oh dang, huge flub on my part! Thanks for pointing that out.

Who?

Some character that was added to Seven’s backstory for PIC as near as I can tell.

Civilian crew are still crew!

Are you saying Guinan was crew aboard the Enterprise D?
 

Huh…I could’ve sworn it was a picture of a blank bulkhead.

Icheb was never a security officer.

You could tell it was Reed because if you paused the episode at the right moment, you’d see that the puzzle includes his entire bit about how much he enjoys T’Pol’s posterior on the side, the most memorable thing he did across four seasons.

It's one of the better variations of Catan, too, using the same rules as the Helpers of Catan scenarios expansion.

I got a copy for my dad a few years before he passed. He mostly enjoyed games like Trivia Pursuit, but the Trek theme did draw him in to this version of Catan.

I am not a tech guy by any measure, but as I understand it, it might be related a security option on your browser blocking trackers? For whatever reason .website extensions show up on a lot of spam lists.

but nice to see him in action fighting fascists.

It really is a full time job.

It really bumped me when I was scrubbing through "The Pirates of Orion" to confirm something for this post, and they started saying "OrEEahn," which I had completely forgotten. Went go back to "Journey to Babel" to make sure they didn't pronounce it that way in there, too.
