Because it was Adam and Eve and Creepy Voyeur Sky Gandalf, not Adam and Steve and Equally Creepy Voyeur Sky Gandalf!

Take away the scapegoats, and authoritarian rule crumbles. They cannot exist without something to hate. Fast forward a few years from now, and if current trends continue, then even racism will eventually fall under the auspices of “freedom of speech” and “religious freedom”.

Yeah, I think I can help you out: fuck gay dudes because “straight”, white, old men spend their whole lives worrying that seeing just the right dick will turn them gay and it scares them.

To be fair, “being painfully and blatantly intellectually dishonest” was the first draft of Trump’s campaign slogan. “MAGA” just fit on a hat better.

The protections aren’t there for acts, but for a state of being. (Let me preface this by saying I 100% believe sexual orientation should be part of the Civil Rights Act. It’s a national embarrassment in the 21st century that it isn’t.). It isn’t relative to any one person, it’s relative to all people. If any person…

Fancy has it right. It’s another reason DOMA should have been stricken down. Saying marriage (or in this case just relationships) is only for a man and woman couple is discrimination based on the sex of the two people involved. It is inherently no different than discriminating against members of couples based on race…

How can you even argue against that?

So let’s say I’m a gay man. I date men. You fire me for that. You would not fire a woman for dating men. It follows from simple logic that you are discriminating against me based on my sex, relative to the people that I date. Exactly how do you argue against this logic without being painfully and blatantly…

Actually I disagree, and I don’t see how this isn’t a simple argument. They’re saying sex does not equal sexual orientation in these cases. That’s simple to disprove. If you fire me for being gay, you are firing me because of my sex relative to the sex of my partner. You would not fire me if I was a woman having sex…

And pretty soon, they’ll have a senator straight out of the 1760’s.

Alabama’s all “you motherfuckers think the 60's fucked us up, huh? Well, we’re back, we’re ignoring the Supreme Court again and have a Klansmen running the DOJ. What.”

The Jones Act is terrible. It’s a major reason that Puerto Rico is bankrupt. The island could be a major shipping and trading hub, but it’s precluded from earning a living. Then what is supposed to drive its economy? Tourism alone isn’t enough.

“But you can also watch all the old Star Trek episodes you know and love on CBS All Access thanks to its catalog of every previous Star Trek series in their entirety, from The Original Series to Enterprise.”

I’m going to be super-naughty and torrent it in 1080p, then put it on my Plex server so I can stream it whenever and wherever I want. I normally only do this for shit I actually own, but thanks to this CBS All Access douchebaggery, I’m making an exception.

that’s why gets me too, that they partner with Netflix to pay for production and then deny it rights for one of its top markets. Leslie Moonves is a creep, and a terrible human being who unfortunately has control of TV trek. Lucille Ball and Roddenberry are turning in their graves.

I’m going to be naughty and just watch it in shitty 480p “glory” on Couchtuner or some other site during the season, then perhaps subscribe to CBS All Access for a single month and binge the whole season in HD once everything is in the hopper (or just buy it on BD if I like it enough). As a poster above pointed out,…

“Netflix subscribers abroad can watch Discovery concurrently with American audiences.”

So basically you’re saying, “Give up and pay the extortion money.”

i love trek - but hard pass. I will wait to buy the series on Amazon

people still idolize walter white, a dude whose hubris brought nothing but pain to everything and everyone around him (and even people not close to him re: plane crash).
