STAR TREK: VOYAGER - S5E26 Equinox, Part 1

[star-trek-fandom-confessions]

Confession #16

"I know it's probably not canon, but I always liked the theory/headcanon that Jack Ransom from Lower Decks is related to Rudolph Ransom from Voyager."

[faithful-grigori]

”#it was my first thought watching lower decks but that was before I had an outlet for every random thought, #just saying starfleet is apparently small and full of nepotism, #they look like they could be related, #jack pretends to be from Hawaii Rudy disassociates on the beach, #the federation is no stranger to daddy issues, #especially the command officers like dang, #always get caught up on repeated names. #seems like too much of a coincidence. #I really don’t understand stardates as well as I understand years sorry Star Trek, #let’s talk about all the star treks at the same time I count 4 in here at least, #I can’t talk about the ones I haven’t seen yet though, #I fell into a voyager hole and I can’t get up and I’m not sorry about it, #I wrote this on my phone, #I would unleash absolute chaos if you give me a keyboard, #no one wants that. #or maybe they do? idk, #this was gonna be a one sentence post then we went off I guess”

Are Captain Rudolph Rudy Ransom and Commander Jack Ransom related?

Like maybe Jack Ransom primarily joined Starfleet to try and find his father who was lost commanding the Equinox. Depending on his age, Jack probably would’ve joined around the time of the Dominion War. Lower Decks seems to establish that Starfleet isn’t the most attractive career option around this time, so it seems conceivable he would join up to follow in his long-lost father’s footsteps rather than a sense of duty to the Federation. (See that post about Una being the Starfleet recruitment poster girl, hearkening back to a golden age of exploration in the wake of the war. Una represents be a strategic revamp since wartime recruitment numbers probably dipped quite a bit. Who wants to get sent to the front lines to fight a war in a post scarcity society?)

If Voyager got back to the Alpha Quadrant in 2378 and Jack is a commander on the Cerritos in the early 2380s, he wouldn’t have known about what happened to the Equinox when he joined Starfleet. By the time he’s posted on the Cerritos, he would know the fate of the Equinox and exactly what his father had done. I highly doubt Janeway would hide Rudy’s level of crime in her logs, especially after dressing down Ransom (and letting him live out her self-sacrificing tendencies) and demoting the remaining crew she brought in from the Equinox. When Voyager returns (or Starfleet gets Voyager’s logs and eventually releases relevant info) Jack taking a post on a California-class ship makes sense. After learning the truth, he wouldn’t need to be a great explorer seeing what it did to his father. In fact, his character seems to try to overcompensate for the ruthlessness that characterizes Captain Rudy.

My redneck neighbor Doug watches 'The Bad Batch': The Outpost

As per many people's requests, I've collected a series of texts and Facebook messages from Doug when he watched certain episodes of everyone's favorite Copy Paste Boi show.

Some he was quite pithy on ('Ryan-from-Accounting goes fast but not fast enough to get away from the Bitch Wife Laura'), and others...well, he got excitable, to put it mildly.

Here's one of the more deranged ones, Season 2, Episode 12, 'The Outpost'. Or as Doug calls it: "The Daddy Warcrimes Christmas Special."

CW for Language like you wouldn't believe. Doug says "you'll need a permission slip from your momma to read this, I guess."

-----

Daddy Warcrimes is waiting by the Empire's equivalent of a windowless van, because comfort is just not his thing and he really wants the experience of smuggling cocaine across the border one of these days.

Some bitch who looks like she works at a bank is telling these clones that their extended warranty is up. I wanna bring her a bag of pennies and make her count it before I deposit it because I'm sick like that.

So here comes in SOME BLOND JACKASS. Mother of Hell do I hate this guy. Can I just tell you how much I hate him? I hate him like I hate the Crimson Tide, like I hate February, like I hate my mother-in-law. Hate hate hate. 

So Daddy Warcrimes, SOME BLOND JACKASS, and some homies get into Floating Probable Cause to lay waste to an unsuspecting Third World country or whatever.

Well, I was wrong! Looks like Elsa and her frozen fingers took over this dump. Disney owns both, so why not. The cold never bothered them anyway. Nope, they’re at somebody’s nasty old storage shed. Why does this remind me of visiting my sister in Wyoming?

Oh, who is this no-frills, salt-of-the-earth, son-of-a-bitch? Is that tanned Kurt Russell? No? It’s Sassy Park Ranger! I like him already. If he was my boss I’d actually show up to work on time and sober, or late and hung over, either way, it’d be a good time with the man. He just seems cool and chill and a nice dude. I bet he’s got homemade beef jerky in his locker and his beard always smells like cigar smoke. 

OH SHUT UP STUPID BLOND JACKASS, Jesus Christ I’ve never wanted to hit someone with a folding chair so hard in my life. CALL HIM COMMANDER.

Aw, Sassy Park Ranger’s being nice to Daddy Warcrimes, maybe Daddy Warcrimes will share the Columbian nose candy in the back of the van with Sassy Park Ranger, and Sassy Park Ranger won’t ask about the sobbing family Daddy Warcrimes is probably holding for ransom in the back. It’s all about understanding each other. 

This is truly the Daddy Warcrimes Christmas special, snow and friendship and stuff. I hope this doesn’t end up with Daddy Warcrimes 86’ing Rudolph and the rest of the reindeer from the sky, that would traumatize the children. But this is the same studio that produced Bambi so who knows. Didn't he try killing a kid the first episode?

Oh man, Sassy Park Ranger’s lost a lot of his men, that’s real sad. Only two left, Jesus. SHUT UP BLOND JACKASS SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP.

(I won’t repeat it, but the amount of times that SHUT UP was texted was….something else- Dr. MM)

Sassy Park Ranger’s taking Daddy Warcrimes on a hike around the place in the middle of a blizzard, probably going to say hi to the yeti hooker they all frequent and show him how to write his name in the snow with pee. He’s such a good guy. If they go sledding I’d be so happy.

Oh, shit! Daddy Warcrimes remembers that he has a job and proceeds to cop some poor bastard in the leg so he can follow the trail of blood in the snow. What in the Fargo am I watching here, does Steve Buschemi show up at one point now. No sledding in this one, I guess.

Well there goes Sassy Park Ranger and Daddy Warcrimes on a heartwarming romp following a crippled burglar in the snow as he bleeds to death. Kevin McCallister would be so proud. Well, now, they found a dead body already. You know, at this point, if Daddy Warcrimes capped Santa in the head this show wouldn’t be less wholesome. 

Aw shit Daddy Warcrimes stepped on a landmine, but Sassy Park Ranger watched his training videos that HR made them sit through and disarms it. They’re having a nice convo, I really, really like Sassy Park Ranger. If he dies I’ll be so freaking mad. 

(I said nothing, FYI - Dr. MM)

Aw shit, they found the bunker of crazy white people with guns in the snow. It’s confirmed: the Daddy Warcrimes Christmas Special takes place in Wyoming. Are Daddy Warcrimes and Sassy Park Ranger facing off my brother-in-law and his branch of the VFW near Laramie? Those guys need hobbies besides doomsday prepping and getting drunk in the snow. It ain’t right. 

“After all we sacrificed”…man. I feel right here. Is this the child friendly version of Enemy at the Gate? Shit. Please these two bastards need to survive. I need a beer and I wanna hug my wife.  

Dr. Meat Muffin, please don't tell me you're letting your babies watch this show. They need that dog from Australia who has fun with her daddy, not this.

Oh shit, avalanche! 

Oh no, Sassy Park Ranger. Oh no, oh no. Oh, Daddy Warcrimes.

Thank Christ they made it! They’re gonna save him! They’re gonna save him.

Wait. What. 

WHAT THE FUCK, BLOND ASSHOLE. 

I HATE THIS JACKASS SO GODDAMNED MUCH, SOLDIER OF THE EMPIRE, I WANNER SHOVE MY SOLDIER UP YOUR EMPIRE YOU STUPID DICK. 

FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU

Yay! Daddy Warcrimes finally took out his gun and 86’d that FUCK. CHRISTMAS CAME EARLY!! YAAAAAAY!!!!!

Man...I hope this ends okay for Daddy Warcrimes. I hope his brothers aren't just dicking around somewhere warm while he and the other bros are out dying.

Guess that'll be next episode?"

....Doug snapped SO HARD watching 'Pabu'. Brace yourselves.

For the character ask game

Chakotay

Oh thank you for the ask and thank you for choosing my lovely Chakotay as the subject!

How I feel about this character

If anyone can't already tell, I love Chakotay, I love him so much! Chakotay is a sweet guy who wants to help people which leads to him getting betrayed and used constantly. He's not afraid to stand up and fight when he needs to. Very susceptible to suggestion/mind control, which is what caused me to fall for him in the first place.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

A- All? Ohh boy. I'll do my best to remember it all but Chakotay is like creamer to everyone's tea, he goes great with everyone. Not including crossover ships:

Janeway, Seska, Paris, Kim, Torres, Doctor, Neelix, Tuvok, Kes, Seven, Annorax, Teero, Suder, Starling, Carey, Kashyk, Moset, Tabor, Rudolph Ransom, Burke, Penk, Iden, Warship Chakotay, Mirror Chakotay, hologram Chakotay from Voy 3.25 & Dal.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

I err.. don't ship unromantically so I've got nothing here.

My unpopular opinion about this character

Chakotay is unfairly hated. His writing and acting is good in Voyager, it's just subtle! Or the fact that it took for Prodigy to make people like him. In my humble opinion, If you didn't like him in Voyager, you don't deserve him at all.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Well I could say something obvious like I wish he got together with Janeway but I'm gonna go for something different like, I wish he dated Torres. I'm aware that none of my slash ships could happen because of the times but Chakorres had so much fuel with her crush on him and she had a dirty dream where she tops him! I'd even have been fine if they broke up in the end but they should have happened, Chakorres had so much potential!

M- My, you got me so passionate there. But I could just talk about my sweet Chakotay forever.

Debut of the Day: On this day in 1967, Yvonne Craig (1937-2015) first appeared as Barbara Gordon aka Batgirl in Stanford Sherman and Oscar Rudolph’s ‘Batman’ episode "Enter Batgirl, Exit Penguin" aired on ABC.

In January 1967’s Detective Comics #359, Barbara Gordon’s modern Batgirl first appeared in Gardner Fox and and Carmine Infantino’s “The Million-Dollar Debut of Batgirl!”. In the same year, actress Yvonne Craig brought Barbara’s Batgirl to life for the first time in the television series “Batman”’s first episode of the third season "Enter Batgirl, Exit Penguin".

The Penguin (Burgess Meredith) plans to gain total immunity from the law by kidnapping and forcing to marry the Gotham City police commissioner’s daughter, Librarian Barbara Gordon (Yvonne Craig). As Commissioner Gordon (Neil Hamilton), Chief O’Hara (Stafford Repp), Bruce Wayne (Adam West) and his ward Dick Grayson (Burt Ward) try to pay ransom for the return of Barbara, Penguin only wants marriage or he threatens to hurt the Commissioner. Agreeing to marriage in order to protect her father, Barbara changes into her secret vigilante guise as Batgirl and plans to take Penguin and his henchmen down. When Batman and Robin go to The Penguin’s hideout to rescue not only Barbara but an also kidnapped Alfred Pennyworth (Alan Napier) mistaken for the wedding’s preacher, the Dynamic Duo are placed in a deathtrap that only their new costumed ally can help with their escape.

Craig's Batgirl, who would be a reoccurring character for the remainder of the series, stood tall with the male dominant Dynamic Duo as the smart, beautiful, independent ally that became an overnight symbol of female empowerment to young girls and women watching in this late 1960s era. Yvonne Craig broke the mold of the definition of a superhero inside and outside of comic books, which led the way for other female actresses to put heroes on the big and small screen.

Best Holiday Card Ever.

I love Christmas time. It's the season for caring sharing and giving. A time to celebrate Santa and Rudolph. At least once every Christmas season I witness a guy having an asthma attack while looking at jewelry with his lady at the mall. Yes, this is the most wonderful time of the year. This year I decided to surprise my wife with my DIY talents. Instead of buying Christmas Cards, I got out my scissors, and construction paper and got a stack of old magazines and "WA-LA", creative, distinctive holiday cards to send to people we care about. I unveiled my homemade Christmas Card to my wife with a sense of childlike exuberance. She just gave me a weird stare and said this has the look and feel of a ransom note. I told her she was nuts. This handmade Christmas Card with all the letters cut out of magazines to say Merry Christmas might be the high point of anyone who gets it this holiday. I know any relative of mine I send it to would certainly display it in a spot where people could see it right when they walked in the door. Yep, it would be the centerpiece of their holiday decor. My wife said I'm sorry it just looks like a ransom note. No matter I'm not going to let your bad attitude wreck my holiday spirit. I hope she's a bit more receptive to my idea of making old cottage cheese containers into gift boxes this Christmas. Ho Ho Ho.

I'm calling it now, ransom has a creepy thing for seven

[revivemyreverie]

wait im nosy sorry but what if I also said ∅ frosty judgement from coppelia on a humble crab or da twins on tiara ^_^

❤️‍🔥.

Mr. Loire is…interesting…to say the least. He’s my upperclassman, so I expected him to be a little more mature than most of the students, so I was shocked to be met with such an unserious character.

Personally, I’m not a fan of people who are like him. I understand if someone’s way of handling things can be lax, but Mr. Loire can take things to an irresponsible degree if he wants. It gets on my nerves sometimes.

His dating reputation too… Call me virtuous, a prude, whatever, but if what I hear of Mr. Loire is true… wouldn’t it be better to at least tear into him a bit for breaking hearts like that? That's would I would do if I were dating him anyways.

Oh who am I kidding, I think I'd do something worse!

⚒️.

Tiara is an odd classmate, simply put. Me and Ransom met him by helping him out with finding his classrooms. He ended up trying to give us gems as payment, but we both refused. After that, I spotted a bunch of students wearing Tiara’s stuff…it gets me a bit annoyed. 

Only idiotic rich kids like Tiara can just give their stuff away on a whim unlike us poor folk who have to fight tooth and nail to keep something as precious as an antique. But I guess its not as bad as fighting for the items to give back as if you’re some robin hoo—

🛠️.

Who the hell gives out gems that cost way too much money, much less give them to the person who was trying to get you them BACK?!! I get that Tiara’s a nice guy, but doesn’t he ever wonder if, I don’t know, he shouldn’t be giving away stuff that could feed a whole neighborhood?!

Hah, anyways. He’s ok; lacks a considerable amount of money awareness, but I've seen worse. I don't really accept his gems either. Yeah, it might be detrimental to me since I'm not exactly of high class, but I'm someone who believes in self-sufficiency. Plus, its weird to get paid for hanging out with someone, makes me feel like I'm under some sort of binding contract, you know?

Ugh, now I gotta find a way to give this stuff back to him without crapping on his feelings too bad...

[imaginedreamwrite]

BT with the ugly sweater party. They all go to Ari’s company holiday party and while all of they’re sweaters are “ugly” Jake’s sweater has a mirror glued to it on the front. Maybe they’re handing out prizes for ugliest sweater and he wins!

Christmas Countdown day 2 — host/attend an ugly Christmas sweater party

“Its brilliant, really Jake. You’ve outdone yourself.” You laugh under your breath, helping him adjust the mirror attached to his sweater. “This is amazing.”

“Thank you, baby.” He tilts your head back and kisses you quickly, mumbling against your lips. “Just make sure you don’t look into the mirror.”

“This is humiliating,” Ransom scoffs, irritated at the sweater Jake gave him with tiny little bells attached to the sleeves, “this is the low of my life.”

“Its fun, alpha.” Jake shares a look with you, rolling his eyes at the sound of Ransom’s whining. “You can drink-“

“Do not get drunk.” You turn toward them both, pointing a finger at Ransom and then Jake. “There are kids here, Santa is here. Do not-“

“Steve is Santa.” Jake guffaws, looking past you toward the boardroom the party is in, first laughing and then grinning. “I need to sit on Santa’s lap.”

“Jake!” You reach out and pinch his arm, drawing his attention back to you. “Seriously, there’s little pups here and kids that are excited and-“

“Baby bear,” he steals another kiss, easing your worries while Ransom huffs again behind you, “I promise I’ll be on my best behaviour. I’m going to ask Santa-“

Jake is gone within a flash, immediately heading toward the line of kids eager to sit on Santa’s lap. You find yourself watching him for a moment before you turn toward Ransom, looking him up and down.

“This is a big deal for Ari, its a big deal for me. Can you please just put a smile on your face?” You plead with him, stepping toward Ransom with a cute pout on your face.

“You look good kitten.” He looked down at you with hunger, his eyes burning as his gaze trailed further to the focal point of your sweater.

“Of course I do, I’m Rudolph.” You touch the antlers on your head and then come to stand beside Ransom, looping your arm in with his. “There’s Ari’s other secretary-“

“The bitchy one?”

“There’s only two of us, Ransom.” You scoff and smack his shoulder, eyeing her as she moves throughout the crowd with a short, objectively shorter than necessary, dress on.

“And yes. She’s irritating. You can’t always be in Mr. Levinson’s office, you never work hard enough, you’re always with him at meetings-“

“She wants to fuck him.” Ransom surmises, watching Ari watching Jake with the same burning hunger that was reflected in Ransom’s eyes. “Shit kitten…I think we’re gonna be in a rut over Christmas.”

“You think so?” You tilt your head and side-eye him. “Really?”

“Good thing Ari’s taking lots of time off.” Ransom turns and kisses your temple then sighs dramatically. “Let’s get this thing over with.”
