Star Trek, slow living sometimes, anti-fascist always. Eat, drink, and get that new notebook. Self-loathing gremlin. Pfp: the character Rhonda from School Spirits stands in front of a bookcase and wears her signature black beret/flat cap and scowl

That was me for a time. I was lucky if I got 28 whole days in between 😩 Who knows? It might fluctuate for a while but I'm taking any change as a good sign.

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."

That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

Linguistics question: I think on the old site, there was a thread talking about the relationship between stench/stink and drench/drink, and then a question about whether the word quink once existed following the same pattern for quench.
Does anyone know about this?

"No purity tests"

Nah, if you can't support human rights for all people, and yes that includes trans people, you not only shouldn't get to run for office, you shouldn't be speaking at all until you get your heart fixed

If it's so fucking useful then go do that useful thing with it! Make something that doesn't look like lazy shit! File a bunch of legal briefs that don't make a judge want to vaporize you where you stand! Fuck off!

Just a couple years ago it was "have fun being poor," "your job is going away, you're being replaced loser," "you better reskill because this is the only thing that matters now." So yeah I'm hostile to the idea and I think everyone into it is a thief and a loser

Man I'm so goddamn sick of ai. "Wahhh you can't have a reasonable conversation about ai on here," yeah maybe be mad about the two year parade of scam artists and financial charlatans and environmental ruiners who have radicalized everyone against the spell check that agrees with you

Is it time for my self-defense lecture again?

Lots of folks ask me what the best self-defense thing is to train. I always answer: track and field.

The best thing you can do to defend yourself is not be where someone can hurt you. Running away is ideal.

A bunny in an attic tries to shoe a small ufo back out an open window, from whence it came. The ufo is floating around the room, confused, and there is an alien inside.

A brown bag if microwave popcorn. There are popcorn pieces printed on it in red. I think they look a bit human-like.

The popcorn on this bag look like fat butts and legs (complimentary)
