Perhaps it is "mission creep", but at least it's a mission to save ot improve lives rather than end them,which is not an inherently bad thing.

Star Trek has been FULL of ridiculous characters from ST:TOS. Gawd i loved it too. From Harcourt Fenton Mudd to Q, to Seven of Nine to Morn in Quarks bar...they fill in world with color & opportunities to present observations on the human condition apart from the main story characters.

I think the big difference was in the plotting structure of DS9 which leaned heavily into multi-episode story "arcs", unlike not just any prior Star Trek show, but most of television programming of the time. That freed DS9 from having to resolve every issue in the "last five minutes".

Wesley was less than necessary. Troi, well yah, just an effort to get some romantic plot lines but Data and the Holodeck were excellent concepts. We'll soon see, Data-like replicants. VR gaming is just step on the way to Holodecks. Just like flip phones, tablets, and talking to computers in ST:TOS

Ideally we'd scrap the US Senate which is anything but a place for lofty debate by seasoned leaders. It's frankly a failed institution. An expanded unicameral legislature freed from gerrymandering, untied to a fixed total number would be better. Meanwhile, removing the 435 cap is a GREAT start.

Hmm, not finding that i any definition of socialism. What was Vance doing in college anyway? Apparently not getting an education. Vance is the ultimate DEI hire.

The McCullough Foundation has a small, but informative webpage, the pertinent highlight here is their clear connections to MAHA and COVID denial. There is a clear right wing stance evident in a page wherein they apparently supply "talking head" punditry to various right wing media.

In 1971 i was with some male friends when something very like this scenario happened. High as a kite,wanting to get naked. We didnt let her strip down & took her to a church group we knew who let her sleep it off. Wasnt hard to do at all.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

The real problem here is having the death penalty at all.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Probably pissing off cable companies because this only accelerates people shifting to streaming information sources. To be clear,the traditional media are increasingly on life support,or soon will be. I don't like this,but its akin to the decline of magazines & now AM radio/broadcast TV.

..should have been our "dress rehearsal" for how to deal with this threat. We learned our health defense system had deficiencies, though we brought COVID under control..eventually. The policies of MAGA/Trumpism & RFK have reduced or eliminated our defenses. We may live to regret our bad choices

..superbugs so you can "learn how to treat them". It's not new & it's not going to stop, it's going to get worse in the age of AI & modern terrorism. We may not be able to stop this but we CAN prepare for outbreaks of deadly biologic agents regardless of how they were created. Arguably COVID...

"Superbugs", basically treatment resistant infectious agents have been around a while & mostly are man-made. In the average hospital setting, the well-intentioned over-use of anti-biotics is oft considered the culprit. The same can't be said of militarized bio-weaponry, including development of ...

...should focus on 1) Reform SCOTUS, 2) Voting Right Act, Reforms of House/Senate procedures & yes Ethics across the board. Prelim invesitigations can begin too. What would the impact on voters be IF an Impeachment without conviction occurs AGAIN? Enthusiasm for Dem leadership? Or apathy?

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

To an extent, Rahm is right. Without a CLEAR Senate majority there will be no conviction and removal of Trump from office. Even if he is, that does two things: 1) Make Vance POTUS & 2) Take away a MAJOR incentive for undecideds to give "more rational" GOP another chance. The next Dem congress....

Sorry, it's request. Nice try, for what purpose i can't imagine. Best of luck to you.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

It's a request, if you want to pick nits here. "Ask" in that sentence is an example of an active verb. It conveys and action, in this case a general request by one individual ("I") on another group ("men").

Lighten up Francis. I can tell already you must be one of the "sensitive" types so maybe you're off the hook here. Meanwhile in the real world asking politely that others also are polite really isn't man/woman "splaining" either.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Do keep in mind that all MsGill said in the OP was "...I ask men to please be mindful when discussing the Cornell 7 with women...". Is just thinking about how deeply troubling & traumatic sexual assault is for a woman and tempering your words respectfully too much of a burden for you Dave?

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

For me, the proposal has flaws & doesn't provide anything but cover for one year and that's just not enough. I know this because my 30 years were IN a disproportionate care facilty where i helped care for the underserved before it became a popular cause to do so. Anyway, nice to chat, and take care

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

..the top 10% of funds go to other non-direct causes. Worthy, but not Healthcare. While the provsion provides money can ONLY be spent on care for the rest, it doesn't seem to prohibit using these moneys to offset regular General Fund money. Tobacco fund money was often "used" that way.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

..going to flood the Emergency and Trauma systems for routine care (EMTALA) like used to happen a lot more prior to the ACA. So, there will be access, just not in the best way. If this had been a multi-year proposal i might have been more likely to support it. I would point out also that right off..

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

In fairness, most changes i was talking will take longer and require more backbone than we've seen from elected Democrats in a while. I understand about heathcare having spent 30+ years it, mostly Critical Care. I know that one year isn't going to make the difference people need, they're just..

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Redistribution of wealth is not going to be an easy task, i just don't think it will happen with a temporary measure. This could have just as easily been a multi-year Prop, must have been fiddle-farting there too. Then we just disagree, we vote and we see what happens. Take care KaJo.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

You clearly didn't read my comment thoroughly. I expect MAGA to distort what's been said & then there's you. Fine,see yiu next year when you have to do it again. You can fix it once temporarily, or you can fix for the future too.

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

Which is why a 1 year fix is insufficient. The under-funding has gone on for years, the real fux is in revising existing tax law & progressive tax rates that restore earlier top income bracket taxation.

110

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

..breaks, deductions, credits & accounting tricks that allow the uber-rich to AVOID paying what they are already assessed. We need to return to the top end tax rates of the '60's & 70's of between 50-60% permanently across the nation. Those are the structural problems to fix, not patch with Prop40.

100

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I am a California resident who will be voting NO and Prop 40 as well as the weak-ass 41 & 42. It's not that i don't believer the uber rich aren't paying a fair share, they aren't. It's just that dubious 1 time tax does not fix anything in the long term. We need to eliminate many/most of the tax..

What us it about the death penalty that even though it does not prevent crime,holds such fascination especially in the Bible thumper States?

000

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Ok,understanding that vets may have had combat experiences thst require specific care approaches & that $4 million is chump change in gov't, shouldn't we be addressing suicide prevention for ALL Americans with additional funding? Or is socialized healthcare only for veterans?

000

MysteriousStranger @misteriousstranger.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I really hope a new Democratic Congress starts the path to impeachment of Hegseth & similar lower hanging fruit, saving Trump for much later. Without a Senate Majority, it's futile on Trump but others might get plucked. Remember, removing Trump gives us TechBro favorite Vance as POTUS.

Truth is, there is probably NO good time to pull out of any military action the US would take in the Middle East. Not because we are needed, but because these societies are just not ready to stop fighting amongst themselves. Some of these blood feuds go back centuries fueled by a proselytizing...
