The extended metaphor of Voyager as a car being chased down the highway by a scooter makes this worth watching all by itself. I think the kazon deserve more attention, if only they weren't in the canonically hardest to reach part of the galaxy. youtu.be/iYD0aizKuPE?...

This is identical to the old complaints that children were getting abortions without parental permission. It's projecting the anxiety of control from fascism and the patriarchal family onto the places where children become individual persons.

I just don't care about any ~law enforcement~ story coming out of this administration because the idea of this man enforcing laws is preposterous on its face. We're talking about an arsonist doing fire code inspections. You're a sucker if you engage with any of it in good faith

There is absolutely no viable path forward for this country that doesn’t hinge on extreme accountability for everyone involved in this administration. They’re going to whine about politicization and credulous media types will echo them, but the thing is, they’ve committed tons of obvious crimes!

It is now one of the biggest facts in the world that the richest man in the world is an overt white supremacist trying to bend politics worldwide in the direction of white supremacy. Twitter isn't the source of his wealth but it is his biggest megaphone.

I've heard it said that the reason Nazis keep getting arrested for possessing CSAM isn't that they're more likely to have it, but that they're more likely to get their hard drives searched.

If you're a black person accused of academic fraud, the british press and political elite will harass you until you kill yourself. If you're a racism denialist accused of sexual crimes against children, the british press and political elite will *immediately* deploy the wall of silence.

I am reminded of a millionaire that did a video talking about how he was fine with Mamdani's wealth tax because he wants to live in a nice city and that takes money. "If i would pay a nice home why wouldn't i pay for a nice city?'

The dirty secret is that rich people need to live in politically stable regimes in order to keep their wealth. They will piss and moan about taxes, but they will not flee en masse. They like paved roads and not being kidnapped too much.

The thought of overwhelming its mythology and lore with a battle royale of every IP ever just bores me, frankly. It stops being its own interesting thing and becomes a platform for whatever.

I used to play Magic: The Gathering, though it's been a few years. I enjoyed it and every so often I think maybe I should find a games shop where people play. But since I found out you can now summon Benjamin Sisko and Dr Who, I have way less interest.

As usual, the previous discussion has brought me to the following conclusions: 1) At least 50% of human cishet men are dragging the whole demo's reputation down, even fictionally, and should be replaced with ficus plants. 2) It's ALL REAGAN'S FAULT.

As I say, I have no knowledge of Carrie, beyond gifs of her covered in pig's blood. I was just responding to "she wouldn't have been bullied if she were that kind of person" in the original post.

I'm not a King fan and I've never read or watched Carrie, but it seems to me "what if Carrie wasn't bullied" is along the lines of "what if Romeo never met Juliet" — maybe interesting, but definitely not the same story.
