Velociraptor did post on the WOT Disqus Channel. Not sure about not posting here. Anyway:

So you dislike it when a sexual abuser raises money for a presidential candidate, but don’t care when a sexual abuser is a presidential candidate?

Musk shouldn’t even exist in the same manner as he does in our universe. In Trek history, the Eugenics wars were in the 90’s. No way humans get to Mars after that with only a few decades until WWIII.

They never saw it coming.

Oh. Is that what happened to us.

Let go of your internet mandated hatred, it’s not 2002 anymore. Besides if you love Trek chances are you made it through Janeway and Archer. At least Ed is supposed to lean towards the incompetent side and be a little annoying.

They changed the timeline.

Wondering if we’ll get a Neil DeGrasse Tyson guest spot since he worked with Seth on Cosmos.

Pumpkin Wine exists; I’ve seen one called Hallowine that was pretty good.

The real world is a complicated mess, and a little life experience goes a long way towards seeing the world as it is. There is no Utopia, there will never be one. Idealism is great, but the more you really understand the world you see it is an unending string of compromises, for better or worse.

And anyone in employment is complicit in both the suppression of the underclass, and the violence enacted by capitalism.

And that shitty “both sides are bad, it not matter” attitude is exactly why elections are close enough to steal. This country would be demonstrably better off with Hillary Clinton in White House, and it would have been demonstrably better off with Al Gore in White House instead of George W. Bush. But no, we can’t have…

It’s hard to know with him, but I’m guessing that he thought the best kind of flowers is potted flowers and the best kind of potted plant is a tree, as that seems like the kind of logic that runs in the family. He’s bright, but very straightforward, the kind of guy who verified the stucco colour or a house whose looks…

No, no he didn’t. ACA, consumer protection measures, etc, etc, etc.

And yet he managed to do it without taking a huge dump on immigrants, muslims, LGBTQ citizens, environmental science, our international allies, or Puerto Rico.

Obama is not without fault, and there are absolutely valid criticism of his tenure as President.

But don’t give me this “he’s just as bad” false equivalency…

I totally did; I never once took it for granted. I failed to see the exact height of the garbage fire coming our way, but that’s a different thing.

pumpkin beer is gross

I know its nothing new and its AVClub so there is tons of posts about it but this Puerto Rico stuff is a new low for the president. all this because the mayor criticized how it took a week for them to do anything.

I did read it. It makes a whole bunch of bald assertions about the biological differences between men and women, and then leans on those assertions as evidence why men are more suited to high-stress jobs in the tech industry than women are. It’s pseudo-intellectual prejudiced horseshit on the level of something like…

Yes, I really did. Eat a dick, edgelord.
