These two gifs are the only way I wanna communicate with anyone ever again.
The true reason for my rewatches of TCW
... Yeah, it's him.
i really got to hand it to rené auberjonois because this man would be in a room, pounds of prosthetic on his face, the only other character being a vial of orange jelly, and manage to convince me that he is a guy experiencing something like fatherhood for the first time with said vial of goo and fully convincing me of it’s sentience. like i was watching that episode and genuinely stopped to remind myself that the goo wasn’t another actor, it was literally just him

Rom has an honest-to-goodness stutter. He stammers and sometimes has trouble expressing himself.
Before Deep Space 9, I had never seen that on any screen without it being a joke. Or a couple times as a character that appeared for less than 2 minutes.
HOWEVER, on DS9, not only does Rom have a decent-sized part, but:
- he's portrayed as a loving and supportive father, son, brother, and husband
- he LEADS his co-workers in forming a union
- he leaves a toxic workplace for an equally menial but safer job, and does it with dignity, and then earns promotions
- he invents new technology, and comes up with it almost as a side thought while planning his wedding, showing the genius that he's usually not recognized for
- and ultimately, he's chosen as the next ruler of an entire planet
I still don't see anything equivalent to that now, in the 2020s. And DS9 was made thirty years ago.
If movie and television producers are so keen on reviving things from the past for the sake of nostalgia, how about looking at Star Trek for ideas on not only increasing diversity and inclusion, but normalizing and celebrating them?
*sees the new venom: let there be carnage trailer*
*sees the scene where carnage forces a security guard to deepthroat his tongue*
me:
i’m like actually genuinely crying a bit over this gif rn and this whole scene in general……..odo is just SO happy and thankful to quark for doing something that changed his life for the better. they’re so comfortable with each other here, just talking and having a genuinely nice and heartfelt moment together. odo’s goofy smile…..quark’s goofy smile……now that’s an “i love you and i love seeing you happy” smile if i ever saw one
