so. what is the fandom discord? is there more than one?
what events happen throughout the year and when
I want to be a better trekkie! and interact! contribute! vibe!
please and thank you
Hi there!
There are, I'm sure, many fandom discords, depending on what you're interested in (if you reblog this and specify, I'm sure you'll get more help, either from me or others). I belong to one that's devoted to all things TOS/AOS Triumvirate, here: https://discord.gg/853UAhRTSq
There are all sorts of events. A couple of tumblrs that post events include @sponesevents and @mcspirkevents. I'm sure there are more and ones that are also gen; those are the only two I know of at the moment, and I would welcome other people's recommendations.
Threshold Day is January 29th and run by @captaincrusher. De Day (DeForest Kelley's birthday) is January 20th and I guess mostly fuelled by my own madness. There's First Contact Day on April 5, Captain Picard Day on June 16 and Star Trek Day on September 8th (technically September 6th if you're Canadian, lol).
Can other folks help this aspiring Trekkie out?

Concept:
A Ds9 episode from Garak's perspective. The episode is him trying to finish this one big order for some dresses while also stopping an assassination attempt in secret.
We see him get some secret information that Sisko is about to be murdered but he can't tell Sisko for secret reasons. So he has to thwart the assassination attempt himself. We see him make subspace calls to his contacts, sneak around on the station after closing and eventually follow and take out the assassin just as they're about to murder Sisko.
We ALSO see him deal with Quark being a difficult customer, Bolian customs issue for a button delivery and also Julian Bashir being clueless about what is happening right in front of him at all times.
While Garak is dealing with this very stressful day we get hints about some regular A plot business going on. We see Kai Winn pass the shop talking to Sisko. Garak and Julian have lunch and we hear Julian say stuff like "Quark shouldn't have bought that mango in the first place" but we never get any details.
At the end of the episode Garak closes the shop early because obviously he's stressed OUT. Of course Julian says something like "I guess you had a slow day today". Garak smiles and nods and say "Indeed Doctor, I was bored out of my mind" and they walk away smiling, as we pan to the shop storage room where the body of the assassin is shoved inside a box of discarded wrapping paper.

I'm like 99% sure this joke has already been made but Tumblr's search function isn't helping me find an example so here's my contribution

I have a thought about Cardassian society but it's 01:47 am so I don't know if it makes sense but I'm forming words.
Disclaimer: I have only watched Ds9. I'm sure there's a million books on Cardassian society exploring these issue - I have not read them.
So, Cardassians flirt by bickering. Which I suppose extends to other people you care about too - you pick a fight to show you care.
So, that might create a society of debaters.
Maybe at one point Cardassians solved their internal issues with pure violence. But they are a people of deceit and lies, of manipulation and hidden meanings. Maybe their language is a labyrinth of depth impossible for the universal translator to ever convey. So the need to argue, to bicker, was channeled into public debates.
A duel between rivals in Cardassia is a spectacle, a spoken word battle where the punchlines are vicious but non lethal. They debate in public arenas, where the audience follows the words with gasps and claps. In my mind I see a view of a Roman like senate, where Cardassians have lengthy debates on various topics.
When Garak talk to Julian he will sometimes pick the other side just to argue. Maybe not because he's flirting (all the time), but because Cardassian society view debating as an art form in itself. Also, there's some further thoughts here that I might get into at some point on how the relationship between the public and the private can work in a society that is so militaristic and harshly controlled.
Any Cardassian can argue any point, so you never really know how people feel in public.

I've been back on Tumblr for five minutes and had to delete an old post because pro lifers got a hold of it and the amount of bullshit in my activity gave me a headache.

Real talk - I didn't expect it to be so jarring to see old posts where I use she/her pronouns after a year of using they/them. I'm like - that's not me. Who is she?
It's like seeing pictures of you in an old shirt you used to wear all the time and realize it actually never fit properly and that color looks so bad on you.
