This reminds me — did they ever explain when there are so many other alternate universes, why they only keep going back to the “evil” one? Is there some connection or experiment that keeps binding the two universes together?

The episode that screenshot is from has a theory from Data that posits there are infinite amount of alternate universes. Every decision having it’s own differing opinion.
As far as I recall, they don’t explicitly state why the Mirror Universe is the one that gets the most action. They are extremely similar so presumably the barriers between the two are thin. This combined with each being aware of the others existence means that there’s a tension between the two. Tension gotta be resolved somehow so they keep fucking with one another.

It was kind of talked about on Discovery with Georgiou after they went to the future. The universes were drifting apart, and because the mirror universe was no longer aligned with the primer universe in whatever year Discovery ended up in, Georgiou was not able to maintain cohesion and had to go back in time. link
I may be misremembering headcannon as an actual line from the episode but I seem to remember hearing that the mirror universe was the one that was the closest to them on the space time continuum. The fact that they were both aligned is why people could travel between them and not others.

That’s something they’ve said, but it doesn’t make much sense. Most of the universes Worf went to in that episode are much more like the Prime one than the Mirror Universe is.

Theirs is the evil universe to most others.
How many timelines has the Federation ended through timeline meddling? And how many races were doomed when the federation forced species 8472 into stalemate in the war against the Borg? The Federation even used bio weapons to destroy the shape shifters in the dominion which would inevitably create a violent power vacuum in the delta quadrant.
The other universe wants nothing to do with the trek one.

Random lukewarm takes with no consistency of posting? Want it? That’s exactly what I’ll be doing on my Mastodon account! Occasionally sharing some of my tepid observations with the world.

Hey, another tepid takes guy! How well do you think Kirk and Bones knew each other?

Sometimes I feel like we are living in an early launch version of the “we won’t go back” timeline. doomer

This was me after not posting for most of yesterday. I have to shitpost at least once every 16 hours or I revert back to my natural liquid state.

It must be nice to be able to commit to a regular sleep schedule.

Man, Odo and Kira do some downright kinky shit behind closed doors.
