GIZMODO: "The argument Sloan presents of the organization as a necessary evil is never considered as a viable conclusion by either the show or our protagonists. If anything, Section 31 becomes as much as an antagonist in its appearance as the Dominion themselves are, an existential threat to the very moral fiber of Star Trek. [...]
Deep Space Nine might have thrown the bomb in the first place by giving us the existence of Section 31, but it understood the danger of wielding such a weapon in the first place—because it already laid out to its audience and to its characters alike that the fantasy of a top-secret spy organization in Star Trek‘s universe was nothing more than that, and that its reality was something far, far uglier to comprehend.
Over the course of Section 31’s remaining appearances across DS9—the direct follow up to “Inquisition,” “Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges,” which sours Bashir and the show at large on Section 31 even further, and the trippier “Extreme Measures”—the argument Sloane presents of the organization as a necessary evil is never considered as a viable conclusion by either the show or our protagonists. If anything, Section 31 becomes as much as an antagonist in its appearance as the Dominion themselves are, an existential threat to the very moral fiber of Star Trek."

2025.01.31 00:52 Maid_Marionette Can Celestials break a pact made between a mortal and a Devil
I'm toying with a character idea for someone who is unwillingly made a party in a contract between a mortal and a Cambion. I'm wondering if a Celestial such as a Solar could break/void the contract without the Cambion's consent and enter into a pact with the character, having them become a Celestial patron Warlock?
If anyone with more lore knowledge (so anyone) has an answer, would appreciate it. Thanks! :)

2025.01.31 00:52 Live_Bug_7060 Why Silkisong is freeing ourselves explained with "Being and Time" from Heidegger
I'm drunk and I took a Heidegger exam today so let me cook.
First of all, I would like to explain the basis for understanding the discussion I am about to make: Heidegger is a philosopher of the early twentieth century and his main work "Being and Time" deals with an analysis of the experience of individuals, which he calls "beings" from a holistic and phenomenalisting viewpoint. For him, being are not things in themselves separated from the world as much as our existence is the world in itself given that we are always constantly in an original relationship with it. His analysis aims to discover what out "Dasein" (our essence, so to speak) by analyzing it from this perspective.
One of the characteristics us beings is that of being dejective, that is, it escapes from its own individuality in favor of hiding ourselves in what Heidegger calls the "si". Practically, instead of relating to themselves, those who exist relate to others but since no one has anything original (since no one is relating to themselves), we end up being a relationship with nothingness, the homologation of the mediation of the masses arises.
How to escape it? Through death! Or at least the relationship with death, this is a complex topic and I will simplify it for your own sanity. The intrinsic characteristics us beings (which come together in Sorge's definition) are that of "having-to-be" or the fact that every moment we are forced to choose for ourselves, of "thrownness" we are thrown into the world without our consent and that of "dejection" or running away from ourselves.
Death has a unique relationship with each of these elements: it is the end of our having-to-be, it is the end from which we cannot escape since our thrownness and it is what most leads us to dejection. Only by recognizing death as a real existential possibility can we truly recognize our finiteness and CHOOSE TO CHOOSE, we can be free. Death is the only thing we cannot escape.
BUT SILKSONG CHANGE EVERYTHING.
WE CANNOT ESCAPE THE BAIT.
Thought the bait, the same way it would happen with that, we recognise our finiteness and we can CHOOSE.
CHOOSING TO ACCEPT THE BAIT IS HOW WE BECOME FREE. FREE OF THE SI.
As Nietzsche said only trought the bate "we can become what we're meant to be"
Note. I haven't studied Heidegger in english so the translation i did it defenetly "technically" wrong, be merciful.

2025.01.31 00:52 aSDthing Soft top install - Professional Install or do it myself
For those of you who have installed your own soft top, would you do it again if you had to install another one? I'm 50/50 on whether I want to do it myself. A local installer is charging $1,200 for the installation, and I'm wondering if it's worth it or if I should try doing it myself.
Any tips or suggestions from those who have done it themselves are also welcome.
