I’ve decided that I will post a meme for every episode of DS9. I am watching them for the first time, so hold on to your hats, people. I made one yesterday , so this makes day 2.

Obviously, I’m gonna watch more than one episode per day, but there may be some days when I just can’t get to it, I do have a full time job (for whatever that’s worth) and I might not be able to catch an episode. Fear not! I will be several episodes ahead of the memes, and I will post daily. I’ve also cleared space on my Drive account so I can host the full album on time. Enjoy the shitposts!

      I don’t use catbox but if it’s anything like imgur…

      The end of your image link has no extension, so this is not a direct link to the image. Clicking it downloads it for me, so it’s a link to something, just not the an embeddable link. I tried adding extensions to the end of the link and that didn’t work, I get back 404.

            Yeah, I switched to imgbb, still not sure why catbox wasn’t giving the file extension. Even with imgbb I had to copy the link from the embedded code link it gave me. Oh well, it works and that’s what’s important.

              I use imgflip and have to open the image in a new tab and copy the link that way, I would self-host something simple for image sharing but haven’t found anything yet that’s not overcomplicated

                Same, plus my only computer is a 2009 MacBook running Debian, so I don’t think I could leave it on all the time.

          Before, it was hosted on catbox.moe and the link went to the download link, but now your link goes directly to the .jpeg itself so it can be viewed without downloading it (I think)

            Yeah, I had to switch hosting sites and copy the link from the embedded code, I’ll try to figure out why this happened after work.

              Maybe it was something with the file you had or just a bug, since I just tried it and it worked fine

    Someone has begun the trek…

    I was considering it for LD S4 since it’s just 10 but DS9 is way longer, but that just means more memes! Have fun!

    P.S. DS9 is amazing especially the lies

      I’m enjoying it! I’ve binged all of TOS, TNG, and Voyager, but I guess DS9 just wasn’t on my radar at the time, so here goes nothing. Yes, this means I will make 176 memes.
