The crew of the USS Challenger have been given the honour of leading first contact with the Nanabozians however, the Federation aren't the only faction in town.
The Klingons, (always with the Klingons), are also on the scene and their first contact protocols are a little more.....flexible.

"Ce n'est qu'un procédé d'embellissement" : pourquoi, malgré le succès de la saga "Avatar", l'avenir de la 3D au cinéma reste flou
Le troisième voyage de James Cameron sur la planète Pandora va probablement cartonner dans ce format, qui demeure boudé pour tous les autres films. Les raisons sont multiples, les responsables nombreu...

I've made it a personal goal to stop using the term "content" when referring to media made by artists. The word implies mass-produced filler and calling someone's hard work their "content" has started to feel kinda like an insult. Like human art made strictly for quick consumption
the enthusiasm for generative AI would not have been possible without prior decades of capitalist conditioning to view works of art as products, rather than acts of culture and shared human life
I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

Aucune image ne pourra mieux résumer l’invisibilisation du travail sous le capitalisme : on remplace des ouvriers qui prenaient des risques physiques par des gens qui n’ont strictement aucune probabilité de perdre quoi que ce soit et dont on ne sait pas au juste ce qu’ils produisent

Je trouve qu'on ne parle pas assez de sa haine méthodique des personnes handicapées.
L'administration Trump proscrit l'usage de la typo Calibri car celle-ci est plus lisible pour les personnes qui ont des handicaps liés à la vue ou à la lecture, ce qui est "DEI" — diversity-equity-inclusion.

Memo from Marco Rubio reportedly said cutting Calibri from official communication would ‘abolish yet another wasteful DEIA program’

Next game up we've GM Keith A's own take on the Honey Heist system. Around this table however, the players assume the roles of monsters looking for the ultimate crime payday - stealing the invaluable AthVentureCon Cup!!
