Mirror universe Alexander would probably still have two living parents.
I'm very unclear on what exactly makes "transporter credits" or "labor vouchers" different from "money."
I’m thinking either Jake has some sort of allowance or stipend, and is exaggerating when he says he “doesn’t have money”
I mean, having walking around money and having Mom-style "now that's walking around money" (i.e. enough to buy a Willy Mays rookie card) are two different things.
Somebody ought to ask Garrett Wang what he thinks about that. (Remind me 11 months from now and I'll do it at next year's Dragon Con if I get the chance.)
for a 50+ year old TV show.
Fun fact: copyright in the US originally had a term of 14 years, renewable once for an additional 14. Under the standard the Framers intended, TOS ought to be in the Public Domain by now anyway.
For non-TNG, I really like Bride of Chaotica from Voyager, which has a similar vibe.
The Ferengi-centric episodes of DS9 are funny, if you're into that sort of thing.
Wait, does that mean they indirectly got it from the Dominion?
Understandable. Honestly, if I had been in a position to make your choice I probably would've gone for the Temporal Light Cruiser too. (I mean, the Atlas maybe has more deeps, but the Connie's a Connie....)
I forgot to mention it before, but one of my other characters is a TOS-styled Klingon (I wish that was a real separate subfaction, but that's a different discussion) who flies a D7 Temporal Battlecruiser. It doesn't "feel" as powerful as my other character's Atlas, but that could be down to the fact that the Klingon is a newer/lower-priority alt with less optimization and/or other differences in the build, not necessarily the differences between the ships themselves.
Speaking of which...
(Also, if anyone wants to comment on how good their equivalents are, I would be happy to replace a Constitution-class with a (captured) D7 or T’Liss.)
The D7 is IMO a straight upgrade from the Connie with the addition of the cloak, although I guess YMMV depending on how you feel about replacing the universal/command seat with universal/intelligence. However, it's not a Connie, so I'd say skip it for space barbie reasons, unless used on a KDF character after the TOS FED one has already been squared away.
The T'Liss is even more mechanically interesting, since it's got singularity core abilities (but no cruiser commands), an experimental weapon (while keeping the 5 forward-facing slots!), and adjusts the seating to have cmdr tactical/temporal instead of cmdr engineering/temporal (which is a double-edged sword because you gain the possibility of CSV/CRF III, but are stuck with 3 eng-only slots where you could've loaded up with temporal abilities before) and universal/pilot. That's all pretty neat, but again it's still not a Connie, so I'd say save it for a Romulan alt later.
Same reason lots of school principals are former teachers, I guess?

Any episode with Discord in it already is that.
