There's nothing 'unusual' about being different. What's unusual is how many people still think sameness is the goal. #LwaxanaTroi #DiversityIsDivine #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon

Huzzah for a return of Captain Ezri Dax, and presumably her gorgeous ship, the USS Aventine!
Star Trek Online is launching a new event with Nicole DeBoer returning to voice Captain Dax.
Ezri’s journey to captaincy, and her growth to a hero captain, remains one of my favourite character arcs in the Relaunch Treklit novelverse. As well, the Aventine Vesta-class slipstream explorer is my favourite ship design.

Deanna, Little One, I'm looking at your profile picture and I must ask: who chose that lighting? It does absolutely nothing for your cheekbones! I'm sending Mr. Homn to your quarters with a proper reflector and some glitter spray. Don't lock the door. #LwaxanaTroi #MotherlyCritique #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon

This 'Mastodon' is quaint, but typing is so primitive. On Betazed, we simply know the gossip before it happens. #LwaxanaTroi #TelepathsDoItBetter #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon

Never let someone convince you that gentleness is weakness. Empathy is the most radical power in the galaxy. #LwaxanaTroi #EmpathyIsStrength #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon
@tychotithonus That’s a hilarious and enjoyable book!!
@farah @tychotithonus I read that for book club a long time ago and decided to re-read it this past November. Really great, and I'd forgotten most of the latter stuff in it.
I also recently re-watched a large chink of #DS9 and noticed that the Sisko-as-writer in the 1950s is basically Red Shirts, just not taken to the same conclusion. Because presumably Sisko the Commander is the real version and Sisko the writer is fiction. But who knows?!

Some say 'tone it down'; I say 'turn it into a symphony.' Your quirks are the brass section that wakes the Philharmonic. Let them blare! #LwaxanaTroi #SymphonyOfSelf #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon

Oh my darlings, if you only knew how radiant you already are. The world has enough copies - what it needs is you. Stand tall, laugh loudly, and let your uniqueness be a gift you give freely. 💖 #LwaxanaTroi #AllStarTrek #StarTrek #StarTrekTNG #TNG #StarTrekDS9 #DS9 #Mastodon

There is a bit in DS9 where a character has an epiphany and gets a chance to stop being a villain.
She goes for advice to a co-religionist who tells her that all she has to do is give up power and everything will sort itself out.
Because of who she is, she decides to cling to power and this is her downfall.
I see lots of people out there who let their ego get in the way of a good decision like that. The world would be a better place if they didn't.
