It's not even subtext. It's just the text.

Honest question, what's flagging this as AI for you? I can generally catch them pretty easily, but I'm not seeing it here.

They're probably including people watching online or on TV. Which makes those numbers even more pathetic.

Except we actually had nationwide, first class rail infrastructure in the 1800s. Most of it has since been torn up or laid fallow and left to rot.

Garak asserts to Bashir that the Repetitive Epic is the finest form of Cardassian literature. I was wondering, is there any real-life literature that could be considered a "repetitive epic" in the same vein as "The Neverending Sacrifice?"

 

It has occurred to me that Vulcan must have some form of sex industry to handle those going through Pon Farr who aren't currently married or otherwise involved. Otherwise, they'd have constant issues with violence from those suffering the "blood fever" whose spouse was far away, or had died, or for some other reason had no one to mate with.

Given Vulcan attitudes towards sex, it's probably kept out of sight, and is only "officially" available to those experiencing their "Seven Year Itch," but it has to exist, right?

 

In Voyager's transporter room, there is an alcove on the side, and embedded in the wall is what appears to be a small transporter pad.
