Bigots were mad when Star Trek Beyond portrayed Sulu as a gay man, but upon a rewatch of TOS S03E17 "That Which Survives," I've decided Sulu was always gay.
This scantily clad woman showed up and killed 3 dudes by saying "I'm for you."
Sulu wasn't taken in for a second.

Okay, I'll start with this, because I'm not at the house at the moment.
I first read "Andromeda Strain" in the fifth grade. It was my first serious foray into sci-fi, and I was immediately hooked on Michael Crichton's books. I still quote "all scientists are blind" regularly.

Absolutely chuckling over the fact the OPM Memo on telework tells us up front why the Trump administration is forcing Federal employees to return to workplaces: to help rich people and massage Trump's pathetic ego.

Great way to start the last long week before Christmas. This has been my favorite version of my favorite Christmas song for as long as I can remember, and that doesn't show signs of changing anytime soon.
