#TNG S05E06, "The Game". Riker tries a new hypno file on Risa, and before long the whole crew is hooked.
Ro really IS brat, when you get right down to it. That's kind of her whole character. I would watch a TNG remake with Charli XCX as Ensign Ro.
#TNG S05E05, "Disaster". It's "Try a New Kink Day" on the Enterprise. Counselor Troi, O'Brien, and Ro explore a poly Dom/sub relationship (Ro is the brat, naturally). Data does electro, Crusher and LaForge try extreme breath control, and Keiko continues to insist that fpreg is subversive […]

Aside, there have been like four talks with obviously AI-generated slides so far, and I strongly feel that if you are going to present slop to an audience you should at least read the slides the AI gave you to make sure they make sense.
Still thinking about the speaker who told us yesterday that Merck would outsource regulatory compliance to AI agents so they could focus on their core competence of making drugs.
OH "It's already beyond human comprehension, what's happening in production"
@kvetch.gay Such a gem of a film
I do think the Swedes could come up with a different word for "bassoon" if they wanted to

@iotapup.bsky.social Bailiff, cuff this man!
@tradierunt.bsky.social Does that mean Andrew is a Romulan?
#TNG S05E02, "Darmok". Darmok and Jalad. At Tanagra!
