Wait, is that why I’ve been horny for space ghosts?
Idk, marijuana looks pretty good
Admiral Riker is absolutely a drunk. He would probably be the most miserable Admiral in the fleet. Take Kirk’s abject terror of being taken out of the Captain’s chair and crank it up to 11.
Probably why the only time we see him as an Admiral he is commanding a ship.
Riker: “You want me to be an Admiral? Fuck no, unless I’m getting a ship and it’s the Enterprise-D.”
“It’s kind of old now, but okay. It’s a deal.”
Riker: “I’ve been looking at these old refit plans for the Galaxy class. Gimme that third nacelle.”
“It’s not going to do anything, the new warp speeds work with the existing nacelles because it’s the engine that-“
Riker: “THREE WARP NACELLES!”
“Fine.”
Riker: “And a giant phaser cannon that covers the entire bottom side of the saucer! Old Baldy never used the Captain’s Yacht anyways.”
“Admiral, stop, you’re scaring the Cadets.”
Considering the period they’re in…they’re already on the brink of war with the Klingons (again 🙄), the love of his life is dead, and we don’t know how strained the relationship is between Riker and Picard. The hostilities with the Klingons are likely hanging on by a thread, so a retired ambassador with mental and memory problems convinces his ex-wife to divert her starfleet ship under false pretenses into dangerous territory, requiring Riker to take his ship into battle with the Klingons to rescue them, losing her Medical ship in the process. He has every right to be pissed at them.
Maybe the extra nacelle is only used for when they need to travel at maximum warp for extended periods of time. Every 10 hours they spin up the unused nacelle and bring one down for repairs and maintenance and just keep cycling them…
Frankly, I’m surprised he doesn’t fly it backwards like the “cool” Lit teacher in grade school sits on chairs. Seems the next logical evolution of the Riker leg.
He can’t have two maneuvers named after him!
One for each leg.
Someone has to have made a Martok meme involving glory holes, right?
That top picture should be at the bottom.
With that face you can’t tell if he’s standing or kneeling at a glory hole
Looks like Gowron’s at the glory hole again.
