My Star Trek headcanon is that Kira regularly daydreams various scenarios that all end with Sisko raising his arm and disintegrating Gul Dukat like Dr. Manhattan.

I want you all to know that my 13 year old brother keeps making sigma type iMovie edits of various ds9 characters and it makes me fucking hysterical. He doesn’t even watch DS9
Some more edits here
Ds9 characters going through genuinely the worst trauma over and over again, finding new ways to have the most horrendous time:
Ds9 crew in the next episode:
'90s Trek had the ideal budget for a Star Trek show. TOS had no money and had to make do with an ice cream cone glued to a dog. Disco has too much money and you can tell they don't have to control themselves at all. the happy medium is a show that overspent on sticking tubes to a guy last week so this week there's something creepy and mostly invisible happening in the same room we always go to
There is a very simple secret to being happy. Just let go of your demand on this moment. Any time you have a demand on the moment to give you something or remove something, there is suffering. Your demands keep you chained to the dream state of conditioned mind. The problem is that when there is a demand, you completely miss what is now. Letting go applies to the highest sacred demand, and even to the demand for love. If you demand in some subtle way to be loved, even if you get love, it is never enough. In the next moment, the demand reasserts itself, and you need to be loved again. But as soon as you let go, there is knowing in that instant that there is love here already. The mind is afraid to let go of its demand because the mind thinks that if it lets go, it is not going to get what it wants - as if demanding works. This is not the way things work. Stop chasing peace and stop chasing love, and your heart becomes full. Stop trying to be a better person, and you are a better person. Stop trying to forgive, and forgiveness happens. Stop and be still.

Everyone who plays around with Tarot cards long enough winds up with a “bad” card that they love. I just barely persuaded my husband not to get the Ten of Swords tattooed on his body; traditionally, it shows a corpse with ten swords stuck in their body and means “utter ruin,” but he thought that if it took ten swords to kill you, then you must have put up a pretty good fight.
honestly this is the most badass ten of swords interpretation i've ever heard. i'm stealing this
oof
