When Linux doesn’t do what I want, it’s never because it was deliberately designed not to do what I want in order to increase shareholder value
High speed rail is very safe.
Star Trek should absolutely be gatekept from conservatives.
When the whole Cerritos crew was having an orgy in 2x08 (in a holodeck sim, but then you cited holodecks sims first) Billups was sitting there in the nude reading happily on his own.
I took his mother’s choice of who to send to him as more evidence of her trying anything and everything (other than just accepting his asexuality) than knowing his actual interests.
Also, aromantic and asexual are different things and do not necessarily go together, so showing romantic interest does not necessarily disprove asexuality.
Right. The only thing missing from this analysis, I think, is that it’s less about his desire to be a Starfleet engineer than his asexuality. I think if his mom would just stop trying to trick him into doing the weird sex ritual he’d be happy playing with dragonbreath instead of warp plasma.
Hysperia is an elaborate LARP and has no actual power over Billups beyond familial and social pressure.
It had exactly the opposite effect for me. I greatly disliked season 1 of Discovery but thought they wrapped it up well enough at the end of the season that they could move on. Georgiou showing back up in season 2 read to me as them having learned absolutely nothing and doubling down on the disaster rather than backpedaling from it.
It’s very good and only gets better as it goes on. Season 2 was fantastic.
Your wife has watched 3/4 of the good modern Trek series and should watch Prodigy. (and the TNG era Treks)
I like Strange New Worlds. Very much hoping they complicate the Gorn cliffhanger they left the last season off with though.
Discovery bringing Georgiou back in season 2 as a Section 31 agent felt to me like the show was doing this, and is what put me off that show specifically. I really like the majority of modern Trek shows, and even like 2 out of 3 of the Kelvin timeline movies.
Usually I tab complete them on desktop resulting in the embedded images form but just use them as raw colon codes when on mobile
:sicko-wistful:
hell yeah normalize inferior emoteless instances using our emote codes :sicko-pog:
I wonder if a non-hexbear user posted the colon code emote whether it would render correctly for us on hexbear
To be fair, explaining diamat to the average WSJ reader is hard mode
Socialism is when you do whatever this particular weirdo tells you to do and the more you obey the more socialist it is
Somehow I don’t think dem votescolds would accept me pledging to vote metaphysically but not actually blue no matter who.
