Edit: found the images here (https://www.facebook.com/groups/StarTrekShitposting/posts/2176674295970225/). I don't have a facebook account so can't dig in.

I need context for such a glorious collision of pop culture.

Was this at Fan Fest Nights last year? I remember (but lost my card to redeem my photo) there was a photo op with a fake bridge. The actual bridge from PIC was on the walking attraction, Red Alert.

This was apparently from 2013. I just added a few more pictures I found, but can't find details of where it's from. You can tell the background is a vinyl/canvas backdrop, so like a fan event or something.

It's a german episode titled Traumschiff Enterprise. It's a musical episode where Weird Al sings about life aboard a luxury space cruiser to the tunes of Seemann.

(Joke explanation for non-german speaking folks: the german word Traumschiff translates to dream ship in english an is only a letter away from Raumschiff - space ship.)

No offence to Al, but i doubt he still looks that young today so 2013 seems like an accurate date.

"Captain's Log Supplemental, Doctor Crusher has examined and treated over 34 crew members and delegates who were subjected to food poisoning from some ancient delicacies called Twinkies. We are now searching for a Ferengi freighter that delivered them to determine if it was an accidental or deliberate act of sabotage on the symposium."

I saw Seemann and thought for sure that link was going to be Rammstein. And then it wasn't! Here's Rammstein for the sake of completeness, lol.

Seemann

I deliberately not chose Rammstein. They went FUBAR.

I must be going crazy -- this is just his manager, right? Al looks nothing like this guy!

Al was really prolific in his day. A lot of his stuff seems recent but it's actually not.

No, it’s definitely his manager. You know, this suit Al is dealing with here:

He does, but seeing him without the signature wig kind of ruins it. And I'm sorry to inform you that it is a wig.

Do you have a source for that? The breif research I've done says its his real hair.

Oh god if Al Q and DeLancie Q ever meet, humanity has no chance. There will be provocation, provolone and polka. What’s worse? Just listing three attributes of a Q’s presence can feed their power. Everywhere, everywhen. After all, what appears after the letter P?

OK, you are correct. I conflated what must have been a photoshop with reality. Mea culpa.

Hear me out. A mutated self-cloned Weyoun who’s aided by Brunt (F.C.A.) since the dominion is made of money, but after they get the information Al wants to steal he reveals he was just a Q doing something over a childish dare. He’s only a lad. He’s Q’s son, Q. The chaos he always had in him, the limits he learned as a human. He’s still out of line in some ways, has minimal formal decorum, but respects living things and promotes love.

Wake up babe, new MLP slash fanfic just dropped.

Tap for spoiler

John DeLancie and Weird Al both guest starred in My Little Pony, with DeLancie's character "Discord" being an expy of Q and Al's character "Cheese Sandwich" being a cameo of himself as a pony. Too bad they never appeared in the same episode, AFAIK.

Discord and cheese sandwich are basically the same deal, let’s be honest. They’re already sharing one universe we just need more.

A few years ago, allegations of rape and sexual misconduct (including abusing positions of power, drugging victims and a casting-like systemisation) arose against bandmembers, associates like managers and Till Lindemann in particular. While no criminal behavior could be proven enough, the band's behaviour and conflict management was just... Appaling.
