Never occurred to me that what TNG needed was a scene suggesting worf and data are getting it on.

Worf always said he needed someone less fragile than humans

A Colorado town's newspapers were stolen after a story about rape charges at the police chief's house ( apnews.com )

Nearly all the copies of a small-town Colorado newspaper were stolen from racks on the same day it published a story about charges being filed over rapes alleged to have occurred at an underage drinking party at the police chief’s house while the chief was asleep.

Well, if it isn’t the Streisand effect in action.

Horrible local story becomes massive story because of the coverup.

Because politics is about the narrative, when a politician of any kind deliberately presents themselves in a particular way then naturally anything that contradicts their narrative becomes news.

It’s a stupid system in many ways but it is fair in the way it’s akss pointless questions of all politicians.

I’m gonna hope this is one of those bad polls with bad results

In a way, Tasha Yar's fate actually worked out really well for the series

I don’t know whether this is an unpopular opinion or not but I actually think that the way Tasha Yar died gave the show much higher stakes throughout it’s entire run. Here is the chief security officer, main bridge crew, tragic back story, potential love interest for the robot character just slapped down by the monster of...

I agree prisons should have those things. Sadly not all of them do. And I’m not sure just talking about countries where prisoner rights are not protected by law. Multiple people are dying in first world prisons due to lack of medical care, including simple things like overheating.

I sincerely hope people do not notice that they’ve not been killed.

It was be a sad state of affairs indeed if you are all making it to the end of the day and that’s noteworthy.

There’s plenty of Troi, Beverley and Geordie episodes in the mix, and worf episodes are typically excellent if few.

But I think the big three you mention dominate the story lines as they’re running things whenever a story isn’t about a particular crew member
