Actually this *is* the future liberals want, the fact it's sending Stephen Miller into conniptions is just a side benefit

Shirley Jackson was right. No live organism can exist sanely for long under conditions of absolute reality.

To the writer out there who doesn't read romance but is about to type up a hot take thinkpiece on Heated Rivalry anyway, for the betterment of the world and for the sake of my own sanity, close that doc.

I don't know what to say any more. My perspective is clear, but my power to effect real change is murky. Horrors upon horrors in this country and the world... but also I have to pack lunch for tomorrow. Raising a child with hope is surely a political act. It might be the best one I can do for now.

Robert Picardo gets it ❤️🖖
Long before the term existed, Star Trek's heart was "woke" & even though that word has been hijacked & made a cudgel to insult, to ridicule & - at the toxic extremes of social media - to justify prejudice & racism, Star Trek's heart is strong & still beating for those listening

There's this episode of Star Trek where Captain Picard is captured and tortured, and the main way that the torturer tries to break him is by showing him four lights, and telling him that there are five.

There are four lights.

This is not a post about Star Trek.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power

- file impeachment articles every day in the House

- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee

- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

This is VERY exciting to me!
The show takes a few eps but when I tell you the show GETS WHAT STAR TREK IS ABOUT, I'm not lying, especially as we get a few eps in. Its not TNG - its definitely something different and yet I think better then any modern live-action show, it captures the meaning of what I love about Trek.

this action does not exist in a vaccuum—this tit for tat is immediately downstream of covid denial; the dregs of government support are contingent upon eugenic conformity.

Pro tip: If you are attending a crowded event in winter, wearing a well-fitting mask like an N95 can serve double duty by keeping your face warm and keeping viruses away.

(yes, transmission can still happen outdoors in crowds or with close and sustained contact to someone who is sick).

Kirk really does look at John Christopher like he wants to eat him alive. God bless the TOS lighting director for giving us this.

Your local librarian here to say that it’s great if you read lots of books this year, alright if you read barely anything, that audiobooks, romance and graphic novels are all valid formats and genres, and that some authors suck but we’re still not stopping you from reading them.

You know the thing about Jimmy Carr? I flip-flop on my opinion of him. He's done some shady shit in the name of profit, and he often makes inappropriate jokes; but I do also think he's genuinely kind in his way.

Ricky Gervais, on the other hand, is simply a smug, nasty bully with a fragile ego.

Been watching the OG Star Trek for the first time and I'm surprised by two things:

1. Kirk is nothing like the lurid horn dog some media portray him as, instead being an honor-bound workaholic that's married to his job.

2. All the Kirk x Spock shipping Boomers did was 1000% justified oh mai gooood

After talking to my SiL I thought we were on a similar page about how shitty ai is. And then I heard her telling our niece to just use chat got to research the schools she wants to go to since Google is nothing but ads.
