Avery Brooks and Colm Meaney on the set of "Emissary", STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE (1993)
Avery Brooks and Colm Meaney on the Promenade set during filming of "Emissary".

Moving from a recurring role in STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION to a regular job on DEEP SPACE NINE, Meaney was initially concerned he would lose the freedom to pursue roles in film. The actor credited Executive Producer Rick Berman with assuring him O'Brien could be written out of some episodes if a role came up that Meaney wanted to pursue: "Well I was very lucky to have a great exec producer in Rick Berman. In fact one of my worries when they offered me DEEP SPACE was that I'd be going to a fulltime role after having just recurred in THE NEXT GENERATION. I could just fcuk off and do what I wanted, but I was a series regular on DS9. Rick sat me down one day and said, 'I promise you, I'll always let you out to do a feature you really want to do.' And over the course of the seven years he did. There were a couple of things he said no to, but they were things I wasn't particularly desperate to do anyway. The important ones I did get to do. They'd write me out of two or three episodes, or have me shoot the last day of one episode and the first day of the next episode. I could do a couple of days in LA and get back to wherever I was shooting movies."

The thing about Hegseth is that he is not just "rapey," there is a police report and a payout. He is the archetypal rapist.

like i say every time this comes up, the term for what awaits survivors who go through the official system (cops, rape kit at the hospital, the hell of a trial where you as the victim get to be cross examined by yr rapist’s defense) is called “the second rape”

My story about the no grades thing is that I had a full-ride scholarship and for some reason I thought I had to maintain a GPA to keep it, so I opted for grades. Halfway through there was a TA strike and I asked, "What happens if grades don't come in on time?"....

I do think that higher ed would be better if more schools adopted foundational UCSC principles: No sports teams, no letter grades, you can't see any building from any other building on campus.

One reason West Coast is the best coast is because a lot of the rest of the country's bullshit (frats, the Catholic Church, evangelicalism) never really took root here.

I'm reasonably aware of how time works but it really blows my mind that the temporal distance between the release of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" (1982) and the premiere of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" was only FIVE (5) YEARS

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

I think its important to understand the campus sexual assault crisis is way worse than you think. universities suspend just 1/12,400 students each year for sexual misconduct & expel 1/22,900. once you read title ix administrators in their own words, you get a sense why that is:
