Hey, happy Earth Day! Who wants to talk about climate change?

Yeah, okay, fair, I kinda figured the answer to that would be "ugh do we have to?" What if I told you I have good news though? Good news with caveats, but still good news.

What if I told you that since the Paris Agreement in 2015, we've avoided a whole degree celsius of global warming by 2100, or maybe more?

Current projections are 2.7C, which is way better than the 3-5C (with a median of 3.7C) we were expecting in 2015. It's not where we want to be - 1.5C - but it is big, noticeable progress!

And it's not like we either hit 1.5C and avoid all the big scary consequences or fail to hit 1.5C and get all of them - every tenth of a degree of warming we avoid is going to prevent more severe problems like extreme weather, sea level rise, etc.

This means that climate change mitigation efforts are having a noticeable impact! This means a dramatically better, safer future - and if we keep pushing, we could lower the amount of global warming we end up with even further. This is huge progress, and we need to celebrate it, even though the fight isn't over.

It's working. Keep going.

#do not lose hope #we can fix this #if we keep fighting

Sir...what

the "queer is a slur" is so dumb yall. I had to see a post on my dash in twenty twenty four where someone said "I've never heard it used as a slur before!" well bully for you. "but we've reclaimed it!" that's not how slur reclamation works. anyway it doesn't matter because if someone asks you not to call them something you don't fucking call them that thing !! it's not that hard you guys

#and getting mad when someone tags it is so dumb #it’s an upsetting word for some people! tagging triggers is normal! even if it’s something you personally like!

rebecca watches ds9: the forsaken

oh god poor julian has to deal with diplomats

and poor diplomats have to deal with julian

actually this is perfect. let him talk their entitled ears off

julian is the galaxy’s worst liar i love him

LWAXANA????

LWAXANA!!!!

get the lady her brooch!

why can’t betazoids read ferengi minds? do they ever explain that?

odo’s very good at his job!

is ds9 ever not having technical difficulties

miles has a grudge against an ai. that’s so real of him

miles don’t be passive-aggressive

i love julian’s face journey in the background while the ambassador lady is complaining about her quarters again

i also love julian defending jadzia when the vulcan ambassador questions her level of experience

picard and odo are the same type of man. ig that’s lwaxana’s type

odo: help a betazoid lady is horny for me

“i don’t handle delicacy very well” i believe in you odo

i love odo trying and failing to flee lwaxana

oh god quark is never going to let odo hear the end of this

“i can swim” LWAXANA AKSKDKDS

trapped in the turbolift. classic

uh oh i’m guessing the probe fucked everything up

better get comfy in there!

lwaxana has an infinite amount of things to say i think

odo: how bad is electrocution really

i think julian is plotting ambassador murder

he’s so expressive i love him

the probe made the computer lonely???

what happens if odo isn’t in his bucket when he becomes a liquid? can he collect himself again once he stops being a liquid?

i wonder if his hair feels like hair. i wonder what odo feels like in general. is he like jello or smth

odo are you ok

odo’s little story about how he was entertaining to the scientists reminds me of when i was little and i was like a party trick to the adults at preschool. i could read and they were amazed

uh oh, one hour until we get liquid odo

so what’s the goal here? overload the computer for some reason?

whatever it was they seem to have done it!

PULL THE LEVER JULIAN

(WRONG LEVERRR)

yeah when my uncle got a puppy (cutest dog ever btw) she was super clingy

ah so odo’s safe, just very private about his liquid state

odo’s fucking melting lmao

i think lwaxana looks better with brown hair

oh she’s holding him in her skirt. that’s sweet. that was a nice moment ❤️

not entirely sure what miles just did but it appears to have worked!

a vulcan called julian logical. that’s high praise

cannot get over lwaxana’s type being Beige

miles has a puppy now! in a manner of speaking anyway

contemplates writing a detailed guide to deradicalizing republican evangelicals for the billionth time

[noitsbecky127]

the problem with not voting in order to send the message that you hate all the candidates and the entire system and therefore refuse to participate is that it's completely indistinguishable, as a signal, from not bothering to vote because you think the system is great and all the candidates are great and you'd be fine with any of them. so you might want to rethink the strategy there

[noitsbecky127]

rebecca watches ds9: if wishes were horses

odo and quark’s hatred of each other is so funny

jake uses the holosuite to play baseball. iconic tbh

julian please give it up. jadzia is not into you

why don’t you fuck a cardassian tailor and maybe you’ll feel better

where’s garak anyway? we haven’t seen him since that one episode

HI MOLLY

god she’s so adorable

ah she’s gotten old enough to play the “i’m not tired” game every night. i vaguely remember doing that with my parents

go back to bed molly

i love her little onesie

fuck dude rumplestiltskin sure is in her room!

so far we’ve got rumplestiltskin and a baseball man. what else will there be?

lovey-dovey jadzia apparently!

i love how at first julian was peaceful about it and then he properly wakes up and goes “this is NOT supposed to be happening”

he’s so bewildered lmao

oh ok bokai isn’t real. glad i found that out before i texted my dad about him

this is an EXTREMELY awkward moment for both julian and jadzia

ah so these things can blink out of existence as easily as they blinked into it

why tf is it snowing on the promenade. who thought of that

why are there ANIMALS here, who thought of THAT

“ladies and gentlemen and all androgynous creatures” diversity win

of course quark’s imagination is just horniness

i’m impressed that julian can still be in the same room as jadzia after that. i think i’d be requesting a transfer if my crush saw my fantasies of her. or maybe just outright faking my death

ah yeah ig jadzia has a pretty good understanding of men!

oh christ the other jadzia is back

the hanoli system was destroyed. you probably want to avoid that happening here

rumplestiltskin if you lay a finger on molly i will reach through the screen and end you

they don’t play baseball in the 24th century??? that’s bullshit. i’m calling bullshit. dads everywhere would fight against that. i’m gonna text my dad telling him about this and see what he thinks

wait so who or what are these beings exactly? what’s their goal here?

won’t the torpedos just make the rupture eat you

ig they’re betting on them NOT doing that! very good plan. 10/10

emu war part 2 over here

who tf is just thinking about Fire

kira was that you thinking about Fire

quark the girls are Not Real

ah odo is imagining jailed quark. that makes sense yeah

is julian doing anything to help jadzia or is he just there for emotional support

oh there’s fake jadzia again

did that work?

there’s still nine minutes left in the episode so there must still be something left to fix

don’t know what any of this technobabble means but it sounds like something bad

that explosion looked like something bad

rip fake dax

god dammit real dax

damn the power of imagination is a hell of a thing

ah, fake dax survived!

and then vanished ofc

oh ok, so they’re weird gamma quadrant creatures

that sure was an episode!

[noitsbecky127]

rebecca watches ds9: progress

jake and nog again!!

nog has Plans

jadzia’s tastes are pretty widespread! guess 300 years of life will make you more open-minded

so wait, is the moon still gonna be habitable after this? like is this a temporary evacuation or just “fuck you, find new homes”

hello weapon-wielding bajorans

hello other bajoran

excuse you sir kira is more than HALFWAY pretty

wtf are self-sealing stem bolts

what are stem bolts and why do they need to seal themselves

obviously you accept the trade and then sell the stem bolts to someone else for latinum

quark’s bar heist?

time for a bajoran dinner i guess!

bajoran guy stop commenting on kira’s looks challenge

so the moon’s gonna be permanently uninhabitable? that’s kinda fucked up isn’t it?

quark leave nog ALONE

i love how every episode jake and nog are in is just them causing chaos of some kind

one weakened bajoran guy overpowered half a dozen cardassians? i’m calling bs, unless cardassians are exceptionally weak (which i’ve seen no evidence of)

sir. sir you can’t defeat air like you can defeat cardassians

so that’s a self-sealing stem bolt! what the fuck is it for!

apparently no one knows!

awww dax was worried about kira!

oh shit things are getting violent

MULLIBOK NO

you can probably sell land for latinum

oh mullibok is alive!

and exceptionally ungrateful for it

KIRA ARMS

kira’s telling an anecdote of her own!

i’m guessing there is no tree

wonder what mullibok was dreaming of

nog, land is better than self-sealing stem bolts because people actually know what land does

what’d i tell you nog!

at this moment quark is an EXTREMELY proud uncle

“as long as that cottage is standing, i stay here” yeah destroying the cottage seems like a reasonable next step. can’t really fault kira for that one

rebecca watches ds9: the storyteller

miles why don’t you want to pilot

what are you hiding

ah no secrets, just an aversion to julian’s presence

leave him alone he’s just neurodivergent 😔

so are these bajoran ethnic groups?

this lady’s quite young to be a tetrarch!

i love how earnest bashir is

bajoran village!!! looks like a nice place

damn this dude is really important for some reason!

how old is this chick anyway? why’s she the tetrarch?

ah so her dad was tetrarch and he’s dead so now it’s her

and quark is here to provide refreshments of course

and he has had a drink thrown in his face! guessing that wasn’t the first time he’s had that happen, guessing it won’t be the last either

hello jake and nog, i see you are still causing problems on purpose

all these two care about is causing problems on purpose and girls. good to know teenage boys never change

ah so the old guy is dying

why is the entire village gonna die without him?

this old guy defeats a demon every year? how?

i love jake and nog trying and utterly failing to charm varis

wait no it might be working. somehow.

what the fuck is that thing

so he drives it away with the power of words or something?

why can only this one specific guy (and miles apparently) do this

oh varis found jake and nog’s favorite spot!

poor miles is having a Time

odo bucket heist???

odo bucket heist!!!

odo doesn’t even look like oatmeal

so much for the bucket heist

well if YOU’RE the true sirah, bajoran guy whose name i can’t remember, can’t you defeat the monster tonight and let miles go back to ds9

so why can’t the sirah just stop summoning the monster

nog just got a cheek kiss from a girl. best day of his life

so are bashir and o’brien friends now? good for them

[noitsbecky127]

rebecca watches ds9: battle lines

hello miles!

what is it that they have found? aside from long-haired kira apparently

i like butch kira better

wonder what the cardassians have to say about her

LMAO she’s upset at being called minor

i’m love her

hello opaka

to the wormhole!

the kai is basically the pope right?

she gave miles a necklace for molly, wonder why

into the wormhole they go!!!

and out!!!!!

opaka seems to know stuff about a lot of people

ma’am you are the pope it is reasonable for people to not want to risk your well-being

oh this went downhill FAST

bajor isn’t gonna be happy that you got the pope killed

hello gamma quadrant people, please let the gang go

why is a doctor ironic

kira are you ok

what’s wrong with her

i have so many questions about this place

poor kira :(

opaka??? does this moon have some kind of hallucinogenic or illusion or?!?!

biomechanical? so she’s been brought back as a robot or smth?

so people die here and then just get back up like nothing happened???

god jadzia is so hot

ig if they all routinely die that would explain why they all look so fucked up

miles seems to have had an epiphany

julian got the computer working! somehow! despite being a doctor and not a technician!

kira’s having a religious moment or smth

oh for fuck’s sake can these aliens stop fighting for five fucking minutes

calling it now, being transported off this moon makes the biomechanical things stop working and you die

i was right! i’m so smart

wtf is opaka gonna do on this planet

this reminds me of “let that be your last battlefield” in tos, this hatred that takes precedence over everything else, long after it’s stopped mattering for anything

that was a bleak ending!
