  • I’ve always considered the symbiont to be like a brain extension that while attached allows the host to access all the memories. Sort of like a flash drive adding storage to a computer. Even if the initial computer crashes the flash drive can still be plugged into a new machine and the files recovered. And, an unjoined trill (like what happened to Jadzia in Invasive Procedures can only remember what was recently accessed in the symbiont from her own brain (like a data cache).

    If we are dealing with Thomas Riker or William Boimler Logic, I would say that you now have Jadzia 1 and Jadzia 2 and each is their own Dax as well.

    In case number 2, I would say that most likely, as long as parallel Dax is compatible with Prime Trills, you’d still be able to pass it along to the next person. I have a feeling that the Dax’s might argue about who deserves what though. That would be/have been an interesting episode.

    And as long as I am writing fan fiction, it would be interesting if Dax got some sort of worm concussion and lost certain parts of its memory. Could anything be done? Is it the same Dax without the memories of Curzon? Can we travel to an alternate timeline or back to the past to get a close approximation of the Curzon memories and somehow do a Young Frankenstein brain transfer to set everything right? Also the B story is Quark and Dr. Bashir having love triangle problems with alternate Dax or whatever.











  • “I was not in my uniform, and at no point in my interaction with the staff did I identify myself as a member of the law enforcement community,” Sheriff Owens said. “At no point did I indicate my position, nor did I ask the responders to do anything that they would not, had not, or have not done for anyone else who makes a business dispute call.”

    His excuse seems to be that anyone could have called the police on the Burger King employees for giving someone the wrong order, to which I would say:

    1. Thats still an enormous dick move and

    B. Do you think that deputies would have rushed across town to deal with just any random crank, angry at a Burger King?



  • Yes Pete Rose should be banned from ever entering the Hall of Fame. But Ty Cobb-violent racist gambler should be enshrined for all time along with wife-beater Bobby Cox and Black Sox team owner Charles Comiskey.

    And let’s not forget admitted cheater Whitey Ford and baseball segregation enabler Cap Anson.

    And perhaps the greatest of all, Bud Selig, everyone’s favorite commissioner who was somewhat responsible for the 94 strike and enabled if not outright encouraged PEDs in the 90s to make up for it.

    I would say we should start our own hall of fame with blackjack and hookers but I think this one probably already has plenty.
