VOY 4x10 "Random Thoughts"
I've always interpreted this episode as mocking the parents who claim their kids would be angels if not for video games.
The Mari. Mario. Coincidence? lol
Nonsense. Video games give you orgasms. Everyone knows that.
I watched that episode at exactly the right age to have been crushing hard on Wesley, and I should not have watched that episode. Repeatedly. While alone. With my door locked.
Horny trek is weird trek.
So, the entirety of the Berman era.
Clearly I'm playing the wrong games.
My kids play video games. Nothing terribly violent, but even if they did it wouldn’t matter much. You see, as their parents, their mom and I make sure we talk to our children about right and wrong, fantasy and real life, and how the things they see on TV, movies, and video games are not real and not appropriate in real life; that there is a time and place for everything, and that they need to be aware of their audience.
You see, we parent our children. We recognize where fault starts and ends when it comes to their behavior. And if we thought for a moment that video games had such a negative influence on our children, we would make sure our kids didn’t play video games. Because that’s what being a parent is about.
Video games can encourage violence, if you make sure to play the right ones (College Humor Mario endless bouncing koopa)

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.
