#DS9 gets its first visitor from the Gamma Quadrant, and we get our first ethical dilemma. @renthebarbarian.bsky.social ,@zyllable.bsky.social , & @saraezzat.bsky.social discuss several related ethical issues. CW: fox hunting colonization FGM spoilers for S4 Ep1 of SNW. youtu.be/pZWiyqxrvBQ

#Babylon5 gives us a big lore drop, and it gets @renthebarbarian.bsky.social, @zyllable.bsky.social, & @saraezzat.bsky.social all existential as we talk about life and death and the question of souls. youtu.be/poYLp8LcSIU
