Imagine saying that with a straight face, while simultaneously being unable to connect the sharp drop in viewership with the beginning of your sinecure.
You weren't unknown, Bari. We knew what an unqualified partisan hack you were before being given CBS.

Advocating for innocent patients to be harmed by nurses protesting ICE killing innocent people makes you just as big an asshole as ICE is.

Trump and Project 2025 were not unknown quantities; you just decided that punishing the Dems was more important than stopping the GOP. Now thousands of people in the US live in fear *and* Israel is still committing a genocide in Gaza.
That was the choice *you* made.

If you couldn't support Harris because of Gaza, then you must also accept that ICE terrorizing immigrants now *is* your fault. You decided the lives of non-whites in the US was a price you were willing to pay, even though the Palestinian genocide wasn't going to stop no matter who won.

And since cats have 9 lives, he only needs 1/9 as many cats as the GEOM needs psykers. More if we allow the cats to keep some of their lives, say a 5/4 split.
And given the relative birth rates of cats vis a vis humans, it seems a far more efficient source of power.

The point, which you continue to miss, is how hollow a complaint about cursing in Star Trek is, solely because it's now in a language you understand. Swears in made-up languages like Klingon, Romulan, or French are fine, but suddenly because someone says "fuck" in English it's beneath them?

Edgelord nonsense: fuck, bitch.
Not edgelord nonsense: petaQ, tohzah, top'a, qezhtihn, merde...
Maybe it only seems jarring because Star Trek never portrayed characters speaking as realistic adults due to IRL television censorship instead of any in-universe reasons?

Can someone let Steven Chungus know that "bad actors" don't get four Oscar noms and two Emmy wins?
...on second thought, maybe don't call them "noms" because he might think you're talking about food.

That's not even rations; that's a starvation diet. There's not nearly enough calories or nutrients to sustain a person.

Well I live in KY, so I would say that makes me qualified to speak about the caliber of people who voted 2-1 for Trump, where 118 out of 120 counties voted for this madness.
