Loved this show
JruqsJr
It's called marriage.
Endonae
It's called an unhealthy relationship.

Inversely, it's possible to make loads of mistakes and still win. See Battle of Winterfell, Game of Thrones S08E03.
TI99Kitty
See the Trump campaign, 2016.

Picard knows this b/c he did the Kobayashi Maru exercise. And didn't cheat.
PunIshErnest
Kobayashi Maru test is more than 1's and 0's on the code it's the idea itself. You can change the code but you can't cheat the test itself.

Got Divorced. Been saying this to myself a lot lately.

Its also different here because they do not fear dying. To them, it just happens and you face it nearly every day on a starship
Lampmonster
Data and Picard's relationship was so challenging and so rewarding. How many other people stumped Picard so regularly?
datteslur
A literal god couldn't stump Picard, nobody else stood a chance.
RowanUnderwood
I think commiting nothing but mistakes and still winning is the harder lesson though.

I reblog this whenever someone says "It's God's Will"

I said this to my wife the other day after she had a patient die while she was doing cpr. I don't know if it helped then, but I hope it will
bradmo
The season 1 uniforms were definitely a mistake. Especially those mandresses.
Merpower
What episode was this?
lasardth
Peak Performance SE02 EP21.
Merpower
Thank you!

The solution to the episode was to be petty to the point of stalemate.
Onoratha
Also Dr Strange causing Dormammu to rage quit
StarkRG
Kolrami, I have come to play stratagema!
TheOldSchoolisBack
Also a good life lesson
ThomasThundersword
i’ve used a similar threat to that. “i don’t care that i’ll lose. your about to screw me over so fuck it will burn us both to get you” twice
ThomasThundersword
both were threatened lawsuits (i would have won i had grounds but legal fees woulda been way more than the recompense)
aristera
When victory is impossible, settle for a draw. Literately international relations. Cold war anyone?
spiffylookingnerfherder
Cold War? Too soon to tell how that'll shake out.
SimSimSimsalabim
Dormamu, I've come to bargain!
ChainmailleAddict
You'll never stalemate if you use the Bongcloud Opening
FireSolvesProblems
This scene? https://youtu.be/yIRT6xRQkf8
quietwalker
That's life, but it's also poor evaluation and decision making. Sometimes the only winning move is not to play.
textilelover
And sometimes that's just not an option.
quietwalker
Sure, but so much of life depends on what you did previously. Even the most controlled situations are just heavily weighted chance.
quietwalker
You can't control someone else crashing into you, but you could drive defensively and reduce the risk. Some situations are better to avoid.
ToothbrushWarrior
I always upvote star trek. Its my comfort show. TNG,DS9,Voyager, just make me have hope we can realize we have already what we need to
PunIshErnest
What is your opinion on enterprise? I really liked first season, but I'm stuck at second.
lasardth
It gives me so much hope, which has been in short supply as of late.
Battle4ngel
I recently noticed I binge TNG about once every year, just because it's such a great combination of feelgood and important lessons.
ToothbrushWarrior
I watch TNG,DS9,Voyager back to back the past 10 years. Because i had a fucked up life and now it makes me feel safe when alone or bored.
ToothbrushWarrior
provide for all and still have the ability to grow,learn and come together without worry of needs or wants.
Roboxf
It shows me that we are primitive. We fight over nothing. The colour of skin or loving someone the same sex. We have a LONG way to go.
ToothbrushWarrior
Yeah we so do but i also believe that ending the need/want thing would stop alot of the senseless hate because people wouldnt think others
KinetoPlay
That's kind of the point of Star Trek. We're not the Federation, we're the half black half white guy.
ToothbrushWarrior
are stealing or taking from what they could/should get.
