How is it possible that “Mexico is paying for the Wall through the new USMCA Trade Deal” if the USMCA has not yet been ratified by the Congress in Mexico, the Parliament in Canada, or the US Congress? That treaty revision may never even happen (NAFTA will just remain as is).

Women don’t play, these days.  We don’t like being beaten.  By anyone, and now, we’re not afraid to say it, and act it. Ms. James is my latest hero.

Yes. She has a motor, and a killer instinct, but technique needs a lot of work.

You don’t put hands on a woman.

That was pure awesome!  Each and every strike was thrown with bad intentions.  I only wish she’d gotten the KO!

Every strike was glorious.

Sis held him in place and went to work on his jaw. She was not playing.

Yeah, it does. There’s one ending you can’t unlock unless you repeat a specific scene multiple times. It also has at least one nod to you fast-forwarding through scenes down one branch. So there’s seemingly a lot of wrinkles like that to trigger scenes that makes it not impossible to imagine the “golden egg” scenario.

It actually does do those sort of quick-cut catch-up things anytime you go back up (you can potentially back up and make different choices at many points), the only time you’ll have to rewatch whole scenes is if you start over from the beginning. I played twice for a total of like 3 hours max, and each play through…

Its already like that. Every time you go back there is a recap, and the recap is different depending on your patiñh and your choices 

Uh, it does exactly that.

“1. I have no criticism of Uhura

Correct, my lived experience AND consumption of vast and varied pop culture are not data...neither does your mere mention that you compiled data mean true and correct data exists for your point! Especially not when it flies so far in the face of common knowledge. What sample size, methodology, scope and reputable body…

Once again, anyone care to address what Black WOMEN want?! Not just light-skinned or biracial women but Black women of all hues, particularly dark? Then not just how MEN THINK we want/should want but how women want to their actual desires to be portrayed?!

And wasn’t it written as a kiss between Spock and Uhura but then Shatner got all salty and insisted it be him? I think that complicates the dynamic a bit too given Spock’s (half) alien status.

That being said, this episode has been discussed as a watershed moment in American race relations, Hollywood and television history—when in fact, it’s not. It was nothing more than an expansion of white male sexual desire, masquerading as progress...

Yeah, I’m think I’m going with Nichols’s take on “the kiss” over the article’s.

So basically old TV show is criticized for being old.... Trek did get better... DS9 (Benjamin Sisko and Cassidy Yates) and Worf gets to be the “Black Man” playing Poke The Caucasian... sorta...

Seems like an intentional and willful omission of ALLLLLL the Black man and non-black woman pairings in popular culture since 1967's Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner—which predates the Uhuru Kirk kiss by a full year and had a far more significant cultural impact—I wonder why?

The kiss wasn’t the most groundbreaking thing about Star Trek (and it was shitty kiss because looks like Shattner is trying to eat her...), it was that Uhura, a black woman, was a respected officer and a member of the crew at all. If you haven’t read it, I highly recommend the NPR interview Nichols gave:
