The joy in Sisko's face when Jake introduces him to his family and shows off his book contrasted with the utter despair when he realizes that Jake threw all of it away to try and save him always gets me right in the nerdy feels.

Not just her though. Her entire family line has been getting space-rufie-sexed to death for CENTURIES.

Hahaha! That's perfect.

"Because I can live with it."
"…I can live with it"

"Computer, delete that entire personal log."

The way Spiner and Rubinekplay the moment when Data decides that murder is the ethical choice and both character's realize it is just so good. You can practically hear the hard drive clicking noise while he's holding the gun and also hear it fade when he goes to fire.

The acting on that episode is top class. Everybody really sells that this is a very different Starfleet from the one we've gotten to know. Everybody in command is colder and rarely smile. Exactly how you'd expect people who know they're fighting a losing war would act.

I really liked Lwaxana when I was a kid. Revisiting the show when it appeared on Netflix I found her unbearable. I think Barrett was really good at playing her as an adult child. A woman who had come so far, done so much, but had also experienced so much loss and disappointment that she basically stopped giving a shit…

Your point about education makes no sense.

I'm not sure if we would put Snowflame in with the cold characters or the heat characters. He's got pyrokinesis, but he gets his power from the god of cocaine and there's nothing cooler than drugs.

I deserve this.

I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize. Internet connection problem that became an embarrassment.

Oh sweet fuck this looks terrible.
