I'd hoped that since he was so obviously & blatantly pivoting to a tech sector job, tillis would use his remaining time to actually call out/fight the dangerousness of trump as a person. Instead he's seen the way his potential New bosses caved & now he's scared to piss them off either. Just useless.

I once had the hardest time understanding how the "Grabbing Women" recordings didn't just sink Trump's shot at the White House. But the subsequent years have shown me how many people seem to want women to suffer. Megan Kelly's comments about Jane Doe disgust me, but I'm not shocked any more.

It's the most wonderful time of the year!
Top left panel: Julian Bashir and Garak are together in the cockpit of a runabout. Bashir turns to Garak and says, "I must admit I'm getting rather excited for the spooky season!"

Top right panel: Garak looks up from his panel in confusion and asks, "The 'spooky' season?"

Middle left panel: Bashir fully turns in his seat to face Garak as he answers, "Well, it's an old Earth tradition where we sort of celebrate things that scare us."

Middle right panel: Garak gives the doctor a reproving sort of look and says, "What a bizarre concept."

Bottom left panel: Bashir adds as an addendum, "Though, mainly it's just an excuse for people to get together and dress slutty."

Bottom right panel: Suddenly, Garak's face lights up with wonder and he says, "You have piqued my interest."
