Jesus, you can’t even get to take the long weekend for an organ transplant these days. 

Of course no mention from Elon of maternity/paternity leave, health care, day care, etc.

One of the most interesting things about Picard, to me, is how wrong Sir Patrick got it. His original conditions for going ahead with the show were something along the lines of “no uniforms, no Enterprise,” and that ended up having a serious (and IMO highly deleterious) ripple effect on those first two seasons.

Lower Decks gave us the Black Mountain. Shaw would be the perfect character to pull off that comedy concept as dead serious and he “doesn’t want to talk about it”.

I think Strange New Worlds has done a great job using nostalgia without pandering, something that most nuTrek fails to do.

it depends. if you’re putting tires on a shitty old truck that only goes to home depot, or basically something that you’re not planning to do any spirited driving with, then just make sure your tires aren’t dry rotted or bald. if you are driving something that has like 400 HP and weighs 4000 lbs, then don’t put some…

I want more Captain Shaw. He certainly started off being a bit of a dick, but then we kinda learned why and after seeing him geek out about meeting La Ford I can’t help but think he’s awesome.

I didn’t know I wanted this, but now I need this. In fulfillment of the prophecy..

I disagree. Superficially they don’t look like “women’s clothes,” but there are a couple of details that do make them more clearly feminine clothes. Namely, capri pants, a top that shows off her collarbones, and a horizontal stripe to accentuate her bust. The base tone (her cream-colored coat) is also much lighter…

It’s true that53% vote Republican. It’s also true that 47% of white women DON’T vote for Republicans. 

You can tell that “one individual” that they may be right, but they’re also foolish as hell for letting “not a backwards thinking racist” be the enemy of “ideal Democratic candidate”. People need to vote like their lives depend on it or don’t... while also not pretending to care about anyone (including yourself). Just…

Count me in. I spend a lot of my time reading research papers, looking at spreadsheets, occasionally programming, and so forth, sometimes when I’m traveling. The extra vertical space would be welcome.

There are a lot of horrible things happening in the world. No one has refuted that. We’ve covered what’s going on in Iran and the atrocities going in Ukraine.

I get that, and the lawyers I spoke to explained that. That doesn’t mean it can’t also be fucked up, though. 

Plot twist: the guy’s phone was never charged and he was just staring at a reflection of himself the whole time.

There has to be an ep where they wander into some weird dimension where everyone “looks” like their voice actors in live action. That was also one of my favorite two-second bits in the last ep of Gravity Falls.

It seems that we are probably going to get Scottie as his replacement.

I guessed the spray was eggs when it didn’t cause paralysis or any other plot reason that required it to have happened. That said when they revealed the cold weakness I assumed that was the ‘out’ since Aenar can stand very low temperatures so I was still surprised when they followed through in killing him off.

Welcome to sanity.
