Yep. And more importantly, we should be closing their bases across Europe. No more Fairford. No more Lakenheath. No more Ramstein.
If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.
Ruin a book or band name with one letter:

Politics in the UK:
Trump: (invades Iran)
Trump’s wannabe MiniMe Nigel Farage: Yay Trump! We should join in!
British public: We don’t want to join in
Farage: Er, we shouldn’t join in…
Farage: (Fumbles for new populist subject)
Farage: They’re replacing Churchill with a beaver on baknotes! WOKE!
The universe trying to understand itself, yes. Got to love "space dad" 🤣😂🤣
I feel the same way. "Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed" - it's science. Nothing to prove or disprove it, but I like the idea that we're all just emanations of something universal.
The Strait of Hormuz is open for transits
There's far too much emphasis on the Big Bad these days. I definitely prefer the kind of Trek that stress-tests the ideals of the Federation, like the early pre-Dominion seasons on DS9. I mean, it continued stress-testing those ideals, but in later seasons, there was a Big Bad they had to defeat too
Yes he does!
They couldn't have described the tangerine tyrant better.
If you see this, post a vampire who isn’t Dracula.
the Wile E. Coyote vibes in this timeline are FIERCE.
Warping onto your screens this fall, starring a bald captain, an annoying teenager on the bridge and a KLINGON security officer! Sounds terrible…
Governments of all political pursuations have been so quick to sell out to billionaires, but Elmo is a special case. He constitutes as unique threat to security and democracy in the UK, and should be barred from doing business here.
I, for one, welcome our new beaver overlords
Agreed! There's so much time and space to play with - the early days of the Federation, the lost era, the post-Picard/pre-Burn era - so many stories untold. We could have shows that explore non-Starfleet aspects of the universe, political drama, comedy, action/adventure - something new and different
It is extremely difficult to construct a practical case against this position. Net Zero is now as much about patriotism as it is about climate change.
So skip the trial and go straight to sentencing. Job done.
Yes yes, very good, thank you
Exactly. Either you accept that time moves on and the world will never be the same as it was in the olden days, or you try to recreate the olden days by oppressing anyone who doesn't fit what you see through your rose coloured spectacles. It only ever benefits the oligarchs who want to seize power.
100% agree. They start with memberberries, and end up with the third reich.
“An SEP is something that we can’t see, or don’t see, or our brain doesn’t let us see, because we think that it’s somebody else’s problem. That’s what SEP means. Somebody Else’s Problem. The brain just edits it out, it’s like a blind spot.”
-- Douglas Adams, Life, the Universe, and Everything
I totally understand that, but if they come crawling out of the woodwork in my replies, they'll be on a one way trip to Blocksville.
Either they didn't like change, or, as is increasingly the case, they're trying to push some kind of right wing agenda. Either way, it masks their true intent.
I guess it makes them feel important, which is sad.
Same here - it'll always be Twitter to me.
So that’s that, right? We don’t have to put up with endless drivel about how expensive it is to save the planet abd ourselves ever again? Cool.
“Farage… helped fool everyone about Brexit - which he wants to renegotiate, naturally. Surely the British people can't take this absurd man seriously again? After all, even Trump doesn't.”
Beyond time to boot Farage and his stale band of Tories off the stage.

Yes, I didn't enjoy it either. I gave it a chance despite not being in favour of the concept, but it wasn't for me. And you know what? Rather than going online, trashing it and trashing anyone that liked it, I simply moved on. Nobody's forcing me to watch it again, so why waste energy on negativity.
