Just a little murder, now and then. As a treat!
Think of all the murders she did when the camera weren’t rolling.
Not the political compass I’m used to
that’s correct ben. i’m a problem.
I mean… Crimes of war Sisko?
I mean… Crimes of war Sisko?
Fucking yes! More people recognizing Sisko is a bastard.
For me it was always obvious.
I mean, Janeway was thrown into a hostile environment with basically nothing, and sometimes picked the less moral choices, to make her crew survive.
Sisko decided to ruin the lives of basically a whole planet, just because he was to arrogant to admit that he got defeated.
I think there’s a matter of context, and Sisko has no way to justify his behaviour other than “I see myself as god so I can do whatever I want”
Hey, if space-Jesus is going to make his omelet, he’s gonna have to break some eggs.
Yeah, but those war crimes were cool.
War crimes are not a burden. After all, he can live with it.
He was a really good dad, so it evens out.
Those war crimes saved the Alpha Quadrant!
What’s even crazier is they had to promote Sisco from Lt. to Commander to give him a whole space station, then promoted him to Captain and gave him a ship for his space station. When I’m pretty sure if your running a space station you should at least be an Admiral. Did this never make sense to anyone else?
It was meant to be a backwater station around a planet that was unstable. Mostly they job was be in the way of cardasian return and try valiently to get things towards Fed membership. I believe he had been a Lt commander aboard ships serving as the XO. He was at least a project lead at the ship yards. He may have even run the yards, I don’t recall right now.
He was pushed into a command role that was intended to bring him back to where his career was many to be.
The rank of a station commander depends on the importance of the station in the fleet. Admiralty are posted to stations that are region command stations. The postings serve as command of the fleets in the region as well. For smaller posts the rank to command them drops a lot. Sisko was placed in command of one small station with a couple runabouts. The rank of Commander suits the post. Once it got more important he was already imbedded deeply with the the bajorans.
Archer: Racism is ok.
Hol up. My feelings matter?
Maybe you’re the exception that proves the rule
“Medical team to the bridge, Kirk is burning red shirts!”
Well no, not yours.
Not really. It’s just what captains say to keep crews slaving away and risking their lives without compensation.
Their feelings matter it’s just that nothing’s gonna really be done about it
Bro it’s a post scarcity society what do I need a pay check for?
Eeza joke. You laugh, you move on. Thinking ruins it.
Yes, sure… now put your security officer suit on and beam on this episodes dangerous planet.
Admiral Marcus be like:
Let’s kill the entire crew of the Enterprise so I can get away with starting a war
That’s definitely not the text Sisko should have. I think it got switched with Janeway by accident. She didn’t arrange the death of a Romulaan high official to involve another nation in support of her war (and do a whole episode about how they can live with it), or poison whole planets for personal vendetta. 🤷♂️
How come Picard gets to wear his v2 uniform but not Sisko? (Also why’s his hair upside-down?)
ummmm temporal anomaly (for both questions)?
Sometimes you’ve got to break some eggs
To be clear, the eggs are people.
For coffee
Even Troi had to kill someone to complete her bridge officer test.
yes but she felt bad about it
I’m sorry, but were you under the impression that Janeway, in any fashion, fucks around?
(Except for the salamander fucking around.)
that was not around. that was a committed salamander relationship
Committed? I heard they split like immediately after their first brood, THEN became deadbeat parents who never saw them again!
Those salamander babies are going to grow up and evolve into intelligent reptilians, and Janeway and Paris will be their Adam & Eve.
yeah, but that was when they was filthy hue mahns. as salamanders they would never
Coffee addition is “ok”, murder was absolutely necessary.
“if i somehow couldnt do murders anymore id probably just fly into a black hole” -Janeway
No fucking way. Janeway like her coffee SO MUCH (how much is that, you ask? I will tell you, she loves her coffee SO MUCH!!) that she would even go to the extreme ends of not murdering someone to get it.
Possibly not Tuvix though, bc fuck that one guy in particular.
But a normal everyday murder, on a Tuesday, she would absolutely forego in order to have her coffee fix.
Lmao, given the choice between coffee and killing Tuvix she would still kill Tuvix. Like any good captain.
We all have to make sacrifices, in order to kill Tuvix.
But the important thing is, can she find a way to also get coffee out of the situation?
If the answer is anything at all related to proton torpedos, then the answer is an obvious yes!
Well, she could have airlocked Tuvix & fired a photon torpedo at him just to see if a cute flower and some commander would pop out. Or perhaps coffee beans, you never know until you try.
My issue with the “you’re not a burden” is that, it may be true and that you can totally be a burden.
Whereas I think it’s always okay to ask for help is universally true.
