Borg Queen — her mind “erased” by Janeway’s final attack in “Endgame” — is my guess too; but with the Data stuff, I can’t shake the feeling that she’s Lal — Data secretly reactivated her and put her into hiding before he died. But Borg Queen is more probable.

God, the neo McCarthyism of the post 9/11 call to war was insane.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK.

Let’s just be thankful 007 isn’t a mermaid.

I don’t think we could’ve picked a more unlikable First Amendment advocacy vessel than this rapey, misogynistic, thumb-on-the-scale-of-the-2016-election piece of shit. Which is precisely why the administration is going to succeed in assailing those freedoms.
