Please remember that it is okay to be sad - sometimes it's literally the only correct response to a situation:-).

Teaching true facts about the world - that some people will never truly love you, only what you can do for them - since 1939.

There is no possibility of this ever causing negative effects of any kind, certainly it will not ever be misused (like one pilot being pressured into flying 5 planes at once bc... profit).

If you were close enough to take this picture, then you were close enough to influence the outcome... I'm just saying... :-)

It's basically porn for those people, except far more dangerous bc they think it's real. They even vote according to it.

From someone who did the same: there is no way to understand what DS9 is about without watching it end to end, it's just designed differently than TNG or TOS or Voyager, which were made for people to catch individual episodes and feel like they watched something. DS9 has intricate plot points that expand over an entire season, and then on into the next. I thought I knew what the show was about, but I was so very very, wonderfully wrong! Instead of it being my least favorite, I see now that it's the deepest of them all, though they all have their individual contributions, especially for the historical time they were released in.

So my advice is to wait until you have a few hours, then watch all of season 1. You'll be glad you did, and can decide when to find time to continue with season 2.

Learning about Garak will be infinitely more satisfying that way:-). He is one of the most "interesting" characters on the show, but really when you think about it, they all are.

They are totally fine with fucking, it is strong emotions they are against. Wham bam goodbye is perfectly acceptable, but call me maybe (even just to talk) is strictly forbidden.

They’ve even struggled at times on basic votes to keep the chamber functioning.

You seem to be assuming that proper functioning was their goal. They were sent there to tear it all down, which is precisely what they did. Never forget that they play by an entirely different set of rules.

Aside from the content, I want to take a moment to appreciate how this has such an informative title!:-)

Leia was a senator, so she very much tried the inside reform route until the literal last possible moment when the entire Senate was disbanded. That's what led to her capture then, I believe:-).
