My favorite part of Deep Space Nine is Jake and Nog just chillin on the promenade.
[or, that time I spent almost nine months perfecting a self-indulgent playlist for the morally grey space lizard. if anyone checks it out i hope u like it aough <3]
♦︎ fave lyrics under the cut ♦︎
Pedestrian At Best – Lynks (Courtney Barnett) put me on a pedestal and I'll only disappoint you / tell me I'm exceptional, I promise to exploit you
Killer Queen – Queen gunpowder, gelatin / dynamite with a laser beam / guaranteed to blow your mind
Compulsive Liar – Ezra Furman and even if I love you / I'll always be conniving / I'll always be negotiating with the truth // it opens at a young age / that all-protective closet
There’s a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered, Honey, You Just Haven’t Thought of It Yet – Panic! At The Disco talk to the mirror / oh, choke back tears / and keep telling yourself that I'm a diva
Karen by Night – Jill Sobule I overheard Karen whisper on the phone / she said, "meet me at the club, there's a shipment coming in / and I can't pull this one off alone"
Snake – Halflives I'll twist the knife and leave you with a vicious ache / I won't blink, I won't shake, no / because baby I'm a snake
Dangerous – Son Lux are you dangerous? found your way to my bed / spend fewer nights with the living then I do with the dead // are you dangerous? carved right into my head / quick lobotomy, then left me for dead
Ghosts of Utopia – IAMX you're the conquered stars, the divided heart / you are the ghosts of Utopia / you're the miracle of America
Government Hooker – Lady Gaga I could be girl (unless you want to be man) / I could be sex (unless you want to hold hands) / I could be anything, I could be everything
Symphony for a Spider Plant – Mort Garson [INTSRUMENTAL]
I Think I’m Going To Kill Myself – Elton John I think I'm gonna kill myself / cause a little suicide / stick around for a couple of days / what a scandal if I died!
Mein Herr – Liza Minnelli (Cabaret) you mustn't knit your brow / you should have known by now / you'd every cause to doubt me, mein Herr
Edelweiss Waltz – Irwin Kostal (The Sound of Music) [INSTRUMENTAL]
Michael – Franz Ferdinand Michael you're the boy with all the leather hips / sticky hair, sticky hips, stubble on my sticky lips
Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) – Eurythmics some of them want to use you / some of them want to get used by you
The Partisan – Leonard Cohen when they poured across the border / I was cautioned to surrender / this I could not do
Cold Cold Cold – Cage The Elephant doctor, the problem's in my chest / my heart feels cold as ice, but it's anybody's guess
The Alcoholic – Röyksopp [INSTRUMENTAL]
Heroin – Lana Del Rey I'm flyin' to the moon again, dreamin' about marzipan / taking all my medicine to take my thoughts away
Mosquito – Model/Actriz down the mirrored halls / wearing cuffs with insignias gleaming / with a body count, higher than a mosquito / with a body count, higher than a mosquito
Faggot – Mindless Self Indulgence dig me now and fuck me later / and sing it to the tune of "faggot, faggot, faggot"
Terrible Things – Brick + Mortar sometimes I think of doing terrible things / I know I shouldn't think it but I do anyway
Before the Line – dodie now every morning since the line between my lives / I greet the sun, and ask, "have I already died? / If not then why am I alone? / and when can I come home?"
Old Money – Lana Del Rey but if you send for me, you know I'll come / and if you call for me, you know I'll run // If you change your mind, I'll come, come, come
Everybody Wants To Rule The World – Tears For Fears all for freedom and for pleasure / nothing ever lasts forever / everybody wants to rule the world
Snakeskin – Rina Sawayama buy my expensive, exclusive, pain wear / my fine couture is your branded repayment // like a snakeskin, like a snakeskin / wear me out and tear me down like
Me and the Devil – Gil Scott–Heron early this morning when you knocked upon my door / and I say: hello Satan, I believe, it's time to go
Maybe This Time – Liza Minnelli (Cabaret) something's bound to begin / It's gotta happen, happen sometime / maybe this time / maybe this time I'll win
my unpopular ds9 headcanon is that garak eats whole eggs like a monitor lizard
Nothing prepared me for how insane Quark and Odo are for each other. The entire popularion of the deep space nine refers to them as archenmies but when Odo is the last official person left able to operate the during an epidemic Quark shows up immediately like "you need help?" Odo gets falsely accused of murder and Quark starts investigating immediately. Odo's quaters get trashed by anti-shapeshifter racists and Quark is the first person there to be with him. Meanwhile Odo is complaining about Quark's dubiously legal business practice while also spending his entire free time in his bar. Yes what Garak and Bashir have going on is cute but it's nothing on whatever the hell is happening between these two old men. Forget romance true love is about being ride or die for your nemesis.
mini julian that can infodump by overlaying him on my notes
oh i hear ya, i’ve sewn professionally, I know about these guys. but see that’s exactly thing though– we basically only ever see him using the invisible laser gun, on fabric he is holding in his HAND! handheld stitchers are like, extremely limited in what they can actually do compared to a machine (and cutting table, and iron, etc) It’s just SO funny that star trek’s idea of future sewing was like, well one guy on the station gets a handheld magic gun that does everything 😌
(I bet it presses seams somehow too….)
changed my url. @/simpletailoring was great but I really want us to focus on the important stuff: the stupid fucking gun my favorite lizard uses to sew
what is that. there's literally no way it's actually stitching. what do y'all think this thing doing is please tell me
tumblr friendships can be the purest form of friendship bc it's like. hey i like you based on your shitty vibe and concerning ventposts and that weird sex thing we're both into. raw dogging friendship
