There is literally no better example of textbook fascistic thinking than "Who cares about human rights when the rich are doing so very well"

Alternatively Baby Can I Hold You Tonight by Tracy Chapman is very easy to memorize. Once you have the structure, all you have to remember is, "sorry, forgive me, and I love you."

Wild Wild Life by Talking Heads has lyrics that are very difficult to memorize. Like the chorus is call and answer but the call is different every time and there's a lot of them!

Is it weird that botox ads are on the Olympics? I feel like in 10 to 20 years, spitting image puppet wil be a standard look.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isn’t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

Marvel continues to surprise and delight. I had little interest in Wonder Man from trailer l. ITS SO GOOD! Marvel can make a talking racoon work, they can make a show about acting work. Its all in the love for the craft.

Just days after a group of Trump-aligned billionaires officially took over TikTok in the U.S., users reported their videos criticizing ICE and the shooting of Alex Pretti were suppressed or delayed.

The oligarchy is tightening its grip over even more of our media.

Beware.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.

It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.

Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.

Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Also, it gets cold in winter. Warmer doesn't mean hot or hot all the time.

Astonishing people still say "where's the global warming" when we get a snow storm (Trump just posted it, too). It's the brain-deadest climate science denial statement, and that's saying a lot.

I learned we lost John Varley recently. He was the reason I started reading books. #johnvarley I gotta find another "drop everything and read" author.

Oh. I tried to watch the pilot. I didn't last 4 minites. Just too frantic for me and I didn't like the idea of an official spoof. I do understand why many many fans love it though. I did fine with the SNW crossover. I may try again some day but for now Futurama is still my spoof of choice.

Trek fan since the 70s. There hasn't been a series that I did not like. Starfleet Academy is off to a solid start. (haven't watched the cartoon ones though).

Giamatti was a bit over the top but learning his motivation might help. Yashere's character is also a bit on the nose. I like her as a comedian and I am super interested in the back story though. Overall, as a pilot, more on the good end. I enjoy SNW but I'm more into forward motion story wise.

Me to. Caleb's story has a good hook and I am super interested in post-burn federation challenges and what happened to all the different cultures. Early favorite is Genesis as I see inspiration and heroics coming from her. A new Photonic character also has cool potential.

I had to stop reading "The Complete History (and Fistory) of Underspace" and take a picture of a page because there's a story within the story and the anticipation is delicious. @daktahoo.bsky.social

I remember a salvage 1 episode where they convinced a bad guy that a pen would explode if he let go of it. I don't think they went to space often.

I remember that show also but it was this guy. I don't know if you remember him. He was in 70s comedies. Richard Benjamin. And Tim Thomerson played someone who I think would alternate genders on yhe show.

Quark was the captain of a sanitation space ship. At one point I thought I might have imagined it.
