While this type of high profile death is naturally surrounded by politics, can we keep the actual political talk to the appropriate section of the forum?

When that many people can all get together and agree on something....
it's probably wrong.

The first time I saw that image used was when PETA talked shit about Steve Irwin.
You know how you piss everyone off? You talk shit about Steve Irwin.

@Auspice Steve Irwin was a jerk who ran around sticking his thumb up animal's buttholes until one finally had enough. That stingray is a hero.

Barbara March played one of my favorite Star Trek baddies(along with her sister B'Etor).

For a warrior race, they sure do like leaving their chest exposed to whatever weaponry happens to pass by. So much cleavage.
Racism isn't Tinkerbell. It doesn't need you to believe in it for it to exist.

I watch DS9 episodes every so often lately in a slow crawl through the series and that was my exact thought with these chars. SO MUCH CLEAVAGE.

About to go full nerd here...
Klingons typically only wore spinal armor to protect themselves from cowards. No self respecting Klingon would wear much chest armor. Cleavage for everyone.
Delete the Hog Pit. It'll be fun.
I really don't understand He-Man -

And yet we always see the Klingon males in what appears to be a full chest piece.

@Derp That's just leather uniforming, iirc.

I dunno, man. Looks like mail to me. Even leather is historically armor.

It's definitely not mail. Armour, sure, but not mail.

That looks an awful lot like a slightly modified scale mail to me.

Nah, it's not overlapping.

I think what we see here is the old sci-fi 'if it's metallic fabric, they'll all think it's something impressive from the future' ploy.
I give this iteration a 6/10 for choosing foiled fabric in a relatively small-scale geometric print that reads 'extra futurelicious' at a distance, which I will raise to a 7/10 if they actually did cut that up and patch it together from a late 80s club dress.
The sash gets a 9/10 because it appears to be made using the magic costuming technique of 'knit it in a metallic and/or foil it, and it will look like chainmail', which one of our teachers kept promising they'd teach us some day if we got her drunk enough. (Alas, she did not drink, and thus it is lost to a whole generation, but I've spotted it in use here and there in movies and TV over time.)

SPACE MAILLE
(not to be confused with space femaille - stealing @Ghost 's inevitable joke)
Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.

Damn it.
Regardless of what it looks like from the front, according to the Klingons this is a uniform and the only metallic/armored piece they wear is on the back, which is the segmented spinal armor.
That uniform won't stop a phaser/disruptor or even a bat'leth, but according to Klingon lore the spinal armor would. The design is based on them only wanting to protect themselves from cowards seeking to rob them of a death by actual combat.
Such a nerd.
