The one-two punch of Shax finally living his seasons-long dream of ejecting the warp core, followed directly by Mariner bringing in every single California-class ship to defend the Cerritos?
"The Stars at Night" gets me every time.

Still in my Lower Decks rewatch, and Peanut Hamper is just the WORST.
Still think it's a great name, but that is one selfish exocomp!

Busy day. Paid the property taxes, mailed off a package, yelled at my Senators, picked up heavy things and put them back down again.
Oregon’s Senate delegation is mostly good but they need to advocate for better leadership. Not getting it done, as my friend Busta used to say.

The only thing that can turn my mood around this evening is a little #MST3K. Tonight on the Forever-a-Thon: MIGHTY JACK!
"Wait a minute! Button... button... I'VE got the button!"

Flexible Spending Accounts are hot garbage and anyone who suggests them as a solution to anything should be slapped immediately.
"Guess how much care you need! Hope you got it right! The insurance company everything left at the end of the year!" Just raking in profit, as if they needed more.

Dear @schumer.senate.gov, this is who you're surrendering to. NOBODY likes him. Stop this capitulation now.
Trump and Hegseth booed mercilessly for 2 minutes straight tonight by Washington Commanders fans.

I worked at a university library during the W administration. Let me tell you: Few professions take user safety and security with the seriousness and discipline that librarians do.
Also fostered a lifelong hatred of Elsevier, as every year they'd jack up prices and we'd have to decide what to cut.

Now I’m picturing a government made up entirely of librarians and I very much wish someone would write that book.

been doing some light reading about the aftermath of the korean dictatorship and I think it's really important that we repeat this to ourselves, to our friends, to our neighbors, to our politicians
Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

Took me a minute to remember why #MassEffect was trending, and then I remembered that it's #N7Day.
One of my favorite Renegade actions in this first one. A Hanar is preaching word of the Enkindlers on the Citadel, and Shepard gives it a piece of his mind.

Rewatching Lower Decks and I'm almost at the end of season 2.
The episode "Kayshon, His Eyes Opened" is great. We meet the new Temarian chief of security, they cram dozens of easter eggs into a 22-minute episode, and more of Captain Riker and the Titan!

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now.

The US Army—with the logistical power to have a fully-functional McDonald's up and running anywhere in the world in 24 hours—can't feed soldiers overseas?
Hegseth doing some shitty pushups at the problem should help with that.

NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.
The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:
