My husband has very nimble hands.

Honestly, I didn't expect to see this here!

Also, how dare you, Picard!?

Colonel is equivalent to navy captain. She seems to have skipped Lt. Colonel if that's a thing for the Bajoran militia. Given that she took command of the station with Sisko on indefinite leave, she became DS9's "captain."

Of course she's not captain in the sense of top billed actor, but as a main cast character for 7 seasons with 1 as colonel, after 27 years, I'm inclined to think of her as one of the captains of the classic era along with Kirk, Picard, Sisko, Janeway, and Archer.

In-universe, despite being non-Starfleet she had computer authorization on the Defiant as first officer. As colonel and station commander, she would also be captain of the Defiant.

Arguably Sulu and Riker can go up there too, but with Sulu, I don't feel we really got to know him as a commanding officer (as of ST5 he was still helmsman), and with Riker, we know his command style but never got any Titan action in the classic era.

Kira's promotion ceremony to colonel may have been cut for time in the clusterfun of the Season 7 opening, but by the power vested in me by fan headcanon, I'm going to have the ceremony right now, and I'm going to make it short and simple. Congratulations, Captain Kira.

That's it. That's all it is.

I had to think it, so you have to see it.

So misunderstood

Behold the Odo mug! 😁

I got it at a garage sale last week for 50¢. It has a chip on the back side but it’s just so awesome that it doesn’t bother me at all.

NGL, “The Begotten“ F’d me up HARD.

You’re a good dad, Odo!!! 😭🥺💔

nvm me crying in the corner over parental trauma…

It's Worker's Day where I live. I'm sorry, I don't know who made this, so I can't credit, but I know it's a parody of an older poster.

I just got swept up in some worker's rights stuff today and wanted to celebrate with people who know that this franchise was woke way before people started grifting about it online.

Not sure if it’s ok to post this, I just recently opened this bad boy from exo-6 and I love it! Sisko is my favorite captain and I went all John woo with him…
