Stay off the grass!
The greatest TNG outfit is back: the skant! They first appeared back in 1987 because Gene thought the future would have gender equality (so woke!). Multiple warriors wore skirt like garments: Romans, Scots, Mongols, Japanese, Egyptians, Vikings, and Samoans, among others! #startrek #StarTreAcademy

Everyone assumes that we entered this parallel, dark universe, when Harambe was shot, but I believe it was when James Cameron decided to only make Avatar films. That’s when our universes split.
James Cameron Says ‘I’m Healthy’ Enough to Direct ‘Avatar 4’ and ‘Avatar 5’ as He Turns 71 Years Old: ‘I’m Good to Go’ and ‘There’s No Reason Not’ to Do It
James Cameron says there's no reason for him to stop directing "Avatar" movies.

Content warning: blood, serious head injury. A woman was run down and trampled and clubbed by LAPD officers on horseback. She appears to be seriously injured and bleeding from the head as an officer drags her limp body along the pavement.

For a photo op & a bragging media post, Trump minions at the USACoE have thrown away millions of gals of #water farmers were relying on for later this year. This water will not be captured, will not be useful for cities or farms or firefighting. It is now lost.

Republicans before Trump: Climate change is a hoax, humans aren’t that powerful

Republicans after Trump: Jewish Space Lasers designed by Democrats are making hurricanes

Trump has truly and thoroughly destroyed the Republican Party

The party is now both a global joke and a threat to global peace

What Biden did today was George Washingtonian. He chose the Union over himself. He chose to pick America over glory. Something that Donald Trump could never do. #trump #biden

How long until America’s oligarch class realizes that there are some people that value power over money, and once they have power they’ll no longer be controllable—no matter the size of the bribe?

reflecting on the immunity decision a bit, what the Court seems to be saying is that every element of the executive branch is at the President’s disposal, no matter what he wants to use it for. his motives don’t matter. the office is a weapon to be wielded however he sees fit.

The United States has always been a democracy for some and a brutal authoritarian regime for others, and the effort to expand it to democracy for all has led to a 70+ year backlash culminating in SCOTUS claiming that kings are totes cool and also judges are the ones to coronate them

Again, Black people are an exception here, as basically anyone who stayed in the Jim Crow South has a living memory of living under what amounted to fascism, including the “always walking on eggshells/lack of social trust/long periods of boring endurance/randomized terrifying violence”
Pretty much. What it mostly boils down to is that most Americans really don’t have the faintest idea what living under modern authoritarian regimes actually looks like, and how it’s often at the same time way more boring and way more scary than they’d imagined.

It is the eve of #StarTrekProdigy Season Two arriving on Netflix.

What a long, strange trip it’s been to get here.

I won’t belabor it, but the outpouring of support from the #StarTrek community has meant everything to the cast and crew.

Ours is the little starship that could.

Good night Discovery. Thank you for bringing Star Trek back from the void.

Convicted felon Donald Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers. Not Biden. Not the DoJ. If you’re mad about it, you never ever believed in the American justice system in the first place.

When America sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're not sending you... They're sending people that have lots of problems… They’re bringing Adderall. They’re bringing crime. They’re convicted felons. And some, I assume, are good people.”
