There’s also the theory/idea from a Trek video game and a myriad of other sources that v-ger became the Borg after going through a black hole and being modified by a race of living machines, or some variation on that idea. V-ger decides that all carbon based life is a hostile infestation of the universe.

If you like Kershaw knives and want something larger and affordable, their knives designed by Rick Hinderer (the Cryo and Thermite) are great. Rick Hinderer is like their new Ken Onion (the guy that made the Leek). I recently started using a Kershaw Thermite and I just love it. When adrenaline starts going, hands turn…
I’m Irish/Sicilian on my father’s side, and that part of my family is a stereotype of New York mafioso immigrants, so I always had an attitude that was totally incongruent with my appearance, and bullies just couldn’t deal with it. Bullies are deeply fragile, and when their victims don’t shrink like delicate flowers…
Trump is great at taking any criticism and turning it into ‘See, that’s the kind of thinking that is destroying this country. It’s political correctness, and it’s destroying the country.’ What’s worse is that his supporters believe everything he says. He has all the hallmark characteristics of a fascist tyrant. The…
What kind of knife do you carry?
Among situational awareness, PTSD, and the general experience of being female in public spaces, it’s really hard to tell where one ends and another begins.
I recommend getting some pepper spray. I watched a youtube video recently where a bring strong male gun enthusiast talked about how he was attacked at Walmart in a…
I’m also a transwoman. For most people like me I recommend being armed, being highly aware of surroundings, and just escaping or de-escalating any dangerous situation when possible. But personally, I know that if I wasn’t a fighter, and I just let people bully me, it would have killed me a long time ago. Everyone has…
For most of my life as a transwoman, I’ve gotten the better of male harassers. I’m tough, I like fighting, and I’m good at it. Then one time a guy four times my size and his brother yelled ‘faggot!’ at me while I was walking into a gas station, and instead of fighting I just let them shove me around and pin me against…
Right, because there weren’t any of us at the Stonewall Riots (there were), and transpeople only come in the heterosexual variety (herp derp). Whether it comes out of ignorance or prejudice, is there much of a difference? Thanks for putting that out there.
I wasn’t crying until you said something. Thanks. Between this and a video I watched earlier where a ferret owner makes a vlog about euthanizing their aged and well-loved pet, I’m done with the internet. For like 45 minutes, at least.
Good old HAARP. It’s been functionally replaced by Project Blue Beam. Which is a whole new level of crazy. The government is perfecting hologram technology, so that when the extra dimensional demons invade and the media portrays it as an alien invasion, the gov’t can make them look like religious idols. Or something.…
I’m okay with whatever position copyright holders take on Let’s Plays, but I do wish they would fucking base their actions on whether or not the Let’s Play in question constitutes fair use. Let’s Plays aside, there are some major assholes on youtube taking others’ monetization and hitting people with strikes when the…
If it brings us closer to Blade Runner, I’m okay with it. I want my surroundings to look as dystopian as my life is.
I live in Seattle. We rank 6th on the list of most congested cities, which is a really high ranking for the relatively low population size and density of our city compared to others on the list. To replace our crumbling infrastructure (the viaduct, which is literally crumbling), we’re spending 3 billion dollars on a…
“These changes are taking effect as Microsoft Studios continues to focus its investment and development on the games and franchises that fans find most exciting and want to play.”- This is from the people who bought and dissolved Digital Anvil while they were balls deep into a Freelancer sequel, and this is despite…
Yeah, this is and has been my wallpaper for a few months. So good.
That was my immediate thought. For sure looks like Dash Rendar.
Yeah. This is not a brilliant casting choice. This is a mediocre casting choice that, if they do it wrong, is going to remind everyone of the one-dimensional caricature that is JJJ. We can only hope that isn’t the direction they give him. A brilliant casting choice is one that no one would think of, but that everyone…
I need to watch his other roles, because I don’t want the look or feel of his JJJ anywhere near Justice League’s Commissioner Gordon. That portrayal wasn’t that likable (which is the point) and is now so dated it feels like a caricature, as does much of the movie. If we get anything like ‘I want those papers on my…
