Parenti's speech is also known as "The Yellow Lecture" because the surviving footage of it has a distinctive coloration.

The other reference is this meme is to a scene in Seinfeld where Kramer's apartment is being aggressively illuminated by a big red neon sign across the street; in this case, changed to yellow.

I also really appreciated Worf and Martok's take on Garak's struggles with claustrophobia

Martok: There is no greater enemy than one's own fears.

Worf: It takes a brave man to face them.

It routinely baffles me when folks think that copy-pasting crap into and out of a chatbot somehow contributes to a conversation. It's like half a step up from telling everyone about the dreams you had last night

Vance, too, has recently been questioned about Trump’s ties to Fuentes. Vance was asked about Fuentes’ dinner with Trump during an interview with ABC News on Sunday. “The one — the one thing I like about Donald Trump, Jon, is that he actually will talk to anybody,” Vance told ABC News’ Jonathan Karl. “But just because you talk to somebody doesn’t mean you endorse their views. And look, I mean Donald Trump spent a lot of quality time with my wife. Every time he sees her, he gives her a hug, tells her she’s beautiful and jokes around with her a little bit.”

JD Vance is apparently so comfortable with Trump openly flirting with his wife right in front of him that he'll happily bring it up unprompted in an interview.

That feels like practically a feature, when you have an eternity to fill and only a finite number of original stories with which to do so.

To be fair, it only became Microsoft-owned after it had already become that home.

If they keep it for themselves, yes.

Is it possible you're thinking of that time Jon Stewart was on Tucker Carlson's show, rather than vice versa?

I rewatched that episode just this evening, and completely agree; fantastic scene. Dukat is a delightful villain throughout the series, but this is one of his pinnacles of bastardy.

Imaginary Kira supporting his twisted logic was a nice touch, too; "Being reasonable only made us bolder"

I think you mean the embryo; it takes some time after being laid for the zygote inside the egg to develop to the point it could be considered a fetus.

That shot of the waiter cackling madly as he fills the bottles has stuck with me for years.
