Nothing like a homeschooled high school student taking a history course for college credit online and trying to evangelize you while answering a question about ancient Christianity. Oh my sweet child please broaden your horizons just a little.

You're having a dinner party with characters from Star Trek. What four are you inviting?

A nice, intellectually stimulating dinner party. Everyone arrives promptly at 6 pm and leaves promptly at 7 pm.

Mamdani is going to implement Kir'Shara law. People will have to choose logic and embrace infinite diversity in infinite combinations.

Doesn’t sound so bad.
Mamdani is going to implement Shawarma law. We will all be forced to choose between lamb or chicken, and between salad, fries, or rice.
Mamdani is going to implement Shakira law. Hips will no longer be able to lie.

Am I the only one who feels uncomfortable when they walk into a house and there is a massive crucifix in the living room?

I don’t feel that way on the rare occasion I visit a church, but in a house yikes.

So is Target now going to become like Publix? Superfriendly and a little creepy?

I’m tired of returning books to the university library on time but then getting an email a week later demanding I return books immediately. This is happening at 2 locations and with both ILL & university books. Someone needs to do their job & check books back in & record when ILL books are returned.

Finished reading Christopher Bennett’s Star Trek Titan Over the Torrent Sea. It depicts Droplet (a water world) & its native species in a way only a novel can. Like many Titan authors, Bennett isn’t afraid of letting the Titan crew fuck things up, even though the crew had the best intentions. 9.5/10

Specifically accepted an invitation to socialize with colleagues to meet a colleague’s dog. It was totally worth it. Dogs are so relaxing to be around (for me).

Fuck you SCOTUS! You transphobic assholes.

A lot of people here in Alabama have bigoted opinions about the mayor-elect of NYC.

Congratulations Zohran Mamdani and to all his supporters in NYC!

Give me a #StarTrek opinion that will get you disrupted:

Every time Worf goes on one of his warrior rants, I roll my eyes so far back I can see time and space.

Watched the latest episode of Star Trek Scouts. It’s a Section 31 episode. The secret agency sends its evil agent Finn to prevent the Scouts from stopping a disco ball asteroid. I’m not sure why though.

Seriously tired of seeing depictions of the east wing demolition that make it look like Trump had a part of the actual residence demolished and miss the entire point about how Trump is funding his gilded ballroom. Fake news is fake news. Knock it off Blue MAGA.
