No, I’m not joking, seriously, I thought about it and now I want it with a burning passion.
Miss Piggy being Lwaxana’s best space friend, searching for good clothes and stomping on losers.
Beaker being a Starfleet science officer assigned to the station, constantly having to report to the infirmary because of “science-related” injuries. Every time he walks in cradling his arm, Bashir rolls his eyes at the camera.
Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem can play in Quark’s. They’re great for business. Quark also has some other muppets help attend the bar, and clean the floor… they don’t need much paying so he loves them.
Statler and Waldorf ALWAYS being seated in the Replimat no matter what time of day, passing loud judgement on Bajoran and Cardassian political affairs, and constantly breaking the fourth wall commenting on episode ratings. Q sometimes joins them. Garak might even like them.
I just want DS9 casually littered with muppets. Muppets shopping in the promenade. Sisko frequently bumping into Kermit in a comedic fashion, and they both politely apologise and go their separate ways, somehow unaware of each other’s “fame”.
Everyone fancying Miss Piggy. Including Jadzia, who fancies her the most.
Everyone secretly trying to sit close to Statler and Waldorf hoping to overhear some snarky gem about the provisional government, or about Dukat.
Dukat does not care for Statler and Waldorf, so naturally they get a free pass to remain in DS9′s replimat forever eating anything they want.
Please.
OH GOD NOW THIS IS ALL I WANT OUT OF LIFE WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
i mean besides this i just want. an alternate version of the show where every alien is played by a ridiculous puppet
crying about puppets is a lifestyle i opted into a long time ago and i do not intend to stop at any point
I LEARNED RECENTLY THAT PLATO WON THE GOLD MEDAL IN THE OLYMPICS FOR WRESTLING THREE TIMES. THIS PUTS A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THINGS. I ALWAYS IMAGINED PLATO TO BE FRAIL AND MISSHAPEN BUT HE MUST HAVE BEEN FRICKEN RIPPED. I WONDER IF ARISTOTLE EVER FELT ANXIETY ABOUT GETTING PHYSICALLY (I.E. NOT JUST METAPHYSICALLY) DISMANTLED BY PLATO. PLATO WAS PROBABLY PISSED OFF BY AT LEAST A HANDFUL OF QUESTIONS ARISTOTLE ASKED HIM. ARISTOTLE WAS A LITERAL GENIUS TOO. IMAGINE PLATO LECTURING AND WRITING ON A BLACKBOARD AND ARISTOTLE THROWING A COMMENT OUT THERE ABOUT SOME COMPLEX MISSTEP IN PLATO’S LOGIC AND PLATO’S CHALK JUST SNAPS AND ARISTOTLE’S TESTICLES SUCK WAY BACK UP TO WHERE THEY DROPPED FROM, THEN PLATO IN A BLUR APPEARS BESIDE ARISTOTLE SITTING AT HIS DESK AND HE PICKS HIM UP AND SUPLEXES HIS MACEDONIAN ASS.
given the content of a lot of Plato’s conclusions I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that Plato responded to a lot of reasonable criticisms with “Fight me” and that was the end of it.
We’re not actually sure whether Plato is his real name! Some people speculate that, because Platon means “broad” in Greek, this was actually his wrestling nick name. Basically, it’s like Dwayne Johnson became a famous philosopher and everyone still called him “The Rock”.
Can we have a movie about Plato starring Dwayne Johnson?
You can’t convince me that wouldn’t be the best thing ever.

so we have a conversational safeword in my group of friends and it’s great, idk why more people don’t do this. whenever someone wants a subject to be dropped immediately no questions asked we just say “spleen” and we stop immediately and it’s a really good way to avoid crossing the line between teasing friends and genuinely upsetting them by accident, or stopping debates from turning into actual arguments
Wait but no this is actually a brilliant idea.
When I was a little baby high school student, I used to do the Living Chessboard at our local Renaissance Faire. We always used “forsooth” to indicate if someone was actually injured and needed to quickly end a choreographed fight. It was also very useful when doing little street improvisations because if someone tried to stop you, you could say “forsooth good sir, I must leave.” and they knew you couldn’t do a scene right then. We all used it in real life too, to say “no really” and it was amazing because there was a word used in a casual setting that meant “I’m not playing, I need you do listen to me.” So if someone tried to pick me up or tickle me, I could say “forsooth stop.” And I was instantly obeyed. I had “forsooth” long before I learned what a safeword was, and having a non-sexual safeword for everyday use amongst a circle of friends was the best thing ever. It made me feel very safe and listened to, even as a tiny 14 year old. Because let’s be honest, 14 year old me was teeny tiny and adorable and it’s easy to coo at kids when they say “no don’t pick me up!” but to have a word that every single person respected to mean “whatever I say after this MUST be listened to” was amazing. It gave me a definitive voice when it would have been easy to dismiss me.
So basically having platonic safewords is awesome and I’m all for it.
