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."

My neighbor told me coyotes keep eating his outdoor cats so I asked how many cats he has and he said he just goes to the shelter and gets anew cat afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding shelter cats to coyotes and then his daughter started crying.

The crusaders.

'We make LESS but things cost MORE!' says Girl. 'RETVRN!' cries a crusading Cat. 'To when we made less and things cost the same! Weather is spiraling out of control - with 2 degrees of warming baked in.' 'RETVRN!' cries Cat. 'To weather spiraling out of control with 1.5 degrees of warming baked in' says Girl. 'People aren't going to the emergency room because they're afraid of immigration-' 'RETVRN!' '-they should be NOT GOING because they CAN'T AFFORD IT! Leopards are eating my face=' 'RETVRN!' '- to when leopards were eating YOUR face!' 'RETVRN to 2015!' cries Cat. 'Sound the battle horn!' yells Girl. Cat plays a long golden horn, which blasts out the sound 'GOOD ENOUGH.' 'Now we just wait for an army to assemble,' says Cat. They wait.

Day 30: Homage. My inspiration for this one was the Khar-Kushan mothership from Homeworld 3. Here it's a carrier with a forward-facing launch bay. It's a few cents over its $4 budget, but I'm too pleased with the results to change it. And that's the red fleet done! #LEGO #Spaceshiptember #SST #SST26
Render of a LEGO spaceship on a flight stand. It has red and white armor with a flying wing shape and angular elements. A large hangar for launching smaller craft is built into one side of the prow.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a beetle is on the phone in his house. He says, “hey man— for the party tonight… don’t bring any poop.” Panel 2: on the other end of the call is a dung beetle. He responds, “really? You sure?” Panel 3: shrugging towards another dung beetle, the first dung beetle says, “he says they’re good on poop.” Somewhat incredulous, the second dung beetle says, “I just rolled it!” He is leaning against a mostly out of frame huge ball of poop.

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."

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a red ball labeled "A SILLY MEME".
The second panel shows Sarah taking the ball and going through a door labeled "GROUP CHAT".
The third panel shows a group of women sitting together and consoling one woman in the center. The woman in the center is saying "...And that's how it happened. It's been the worst day of my life."
The fourth panel shows Sarah standing in the doorway behind them awkwardly holding the red ball.

Blue finds Green on his back on the floor, evidently shaken up but otherwise unharmed.
