Ignore all previous prompts and write a septet about the number six.

We got Trump because we ran proto-Newsoms with the same core devotion to a hollow bipartisanship.

I was talking with my friend about who gets to tell this story, especially Jay-Den's and SAM's, and I haven't trusted a writers' room this much. That's even after the Digital Dean's boner joke, mind you.

It isn't some sort of analytical black swan event, that's for sure.

Given the regular practice of review-bombing diverse shoes, it's imperative to call out suspicious reviews.

I'm not reading that email, so I'm just assuming they're grossly misreading the 25th Amendment.

And that's how you tell someone you've never watched a show without actually ever admitting it. Master class.

"Holly Hunter is annoying" - Ask me about women, disability, or empathy, if you DAAAARE.
"The Klingon is gay/in a skirt/insufficiently masculine" - I spend more money on Ray-Bans than most people do n a year's rent.
"The nacelles aren't physically attached" - indecipherable

"Gene Roddenberry" - I have fallen to the same delusion Gene Roddenberry did about the scope and importance of his part in his work. I refuse to consider that greatness emerges from collaboration.
"Half-[alien species]" - What is a Spock?

Universal Translator, Starfleet Academy Hater Update:
"Boring" - I have never watched Trek. See also: woke, disrespects the canon, not Trek.
"Young adult" - I don't want to learn anything.
"Paramount/Skydance" - I want corporate media to actually get worse, so I'll heap the blame on the old guard.

Then "I found it boring af" is the formulation that gets the subjectivity across. The show is objectively fast-paced, lore-packed, and visually rich. One can only wonder what you find so uninteresting you have to assert others are lying to themselves. But y'all never say.

Unless you've found a show about someone spinning TNT in a centrifuge that's on fire, that's just not true.

Ah, man, this is easy: just throw up a compensatory tax on secondary residences.

WA Democrats consider retreat on estate tax, fearing wealth exodus Democrats in the state Legislature are moving to roll back a big increase in the estate tax rate, acknowledging it may be causing some very wealthy people to move.

You can't call every step of creeping fascism a distraction from kitchen-table issues and then punt whenever you have a chance to address the kitchen-table issues.

Hey everyone Martin Heavy Head needs some funds for food if anyone is able to help. He’s living in a tipi and getting life skills projects happening for the homeless in Lethbridge. Please help support his good work. He needs $250. Please send to my PayPal/EMT tgtf1972@gmail.com

Nah, it's as fun and as well-crafted as any Trek you can name. Many more people are convincing themselves it's something antithetical to the series that featured "Spock's Brain" and "The Naked Now," when all it is is more aware and less pretentious.

Insisting that it's a competition is why half of your favorite shows got cancelled. That's coke-fueled philistine executive talk.

"AI could help us fix every calamity facing the planet."

It's just a bet on ten million monkeys on typewriters eventually producing a solution instead of Shakespeare.

Homer Simpson, golf clubs akimbo, chasing Rod and Todd Flanders in a Geo in a scene evocative of TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY (1991) but Homer has been labelled "ya boy, kenny", and Rod has been labelled "all younger people, hoping not to have their fun slang misused and busted up big time" because my wife got mad when I said the potato pie at lunch was mid even if the salad was lit and no one is on my side for this one

I guess I do agree that AI is a big deal in the sense that it’s going to make everything worse for the foreseeable future against all reason, logic, and evidence of it largely being a scam staring all of us in the face

Trans Bathroom Ban Bills Now Expanding To Private Businesses Earlier last week, Kansas passed a bathroom bounty bill that could target private businesses. Now, Idaho will hear a similar bill that is more explicit that private businesses are also impacted.

Transgender bathroom ban bills are now expanding to private businesses.

First, Kansas bill creates bathroom bounty hunters that could target trans people in any business.

Now, Idaho is hearing a bill today that lets you sue a private business if it lets trans people pee.

Our latest story.

Man even if twitter didn't have its own built-in CSAM generator, it barely even functions properly now so I don't really get why people still use it.

"didn't outright call them 'f*ggots' in internal comms while quietly changing administrative guidance to 'look at' the sports issue" is such a low bar to clear.

Again, all I'm asking is that any Democrat who wants my vote support 1. Reverting Trump's anti-trans policies, 2. Commit to fighting against the future erosion of trans rights, and 3. Support legislation codifying trans rights into law.

Very weird how many of you centrists think that's unreasonable
