Agreed, I hope it helps to get more people into Star Trek. I have been a fan for as long as I can remember memories and love the property to death.

I wasnt trying to crap on Discovery—I appreciate it because it laid the ground for the current (and seemingly ending) renaissance of Star Trek we’ve enjoyed over the past few years. However; I think in the context its pertinent to bring up, since Discovery was allowed to flounder around for 5 seasons never really knowing what it was trying to do and then ended abruptly on a real stinker of a final season whereas Prodigy—in comparison a much better show (both star trek-related and in general)—was just snuffed out and thrown away before it even had a chance. Not to mention that it was probably much cheaper to produce since it’s animated and not live action (I know a lot of work still goes into animation).

Like I said though, I liked Discovery—I just think the final season was terrible for myriad reasons. I also know they are both canceled so it’s kinda just me venting frustration as a fan.

Just another case of the Ruling Owner Class being only concerned with near term profits and nothing else.

Here’s hoping Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds continue to carry the torch of fantastic (and not just middling) Star Trek.

While I agree with not copy pasting AI content, the post is correct in identifying hemochromatosis as a medical condition treated by phlebotomy—source: I gots the Iron Man Disease.

Same!

Why are you bothering with special towels if you’re just using toilet paper at the end anyway?

Spray with bidet then dry with toilet paper. Why are people so confounded by these things? Have y’all never used water to bathe before?

Tolkien’s work is wonderful as audio books just ‘cause they’re written like they should be presented as an oral history. Lots of editions exist out there.

*thought

Didn’t realize he was hated? He is a fucked up little weirdo but so is everyone in that show. Man, I might need to rewatch, been way too long.

If there is any discernible pattern to noise it keeps me awake (talking, music FUCKING STUPID MOTHER-FUCKING NIGHT BIRD). I use a noise machine with white noise or fan sounds running. Creates a lovely sound blanket from that mother-fucking night bird.

I dont know why but this just summoned in my brain the ancient text, the knowledge…

Come to Kenya; we got lions

I still don’t even know where they came from or why they existed but I did have a big tube of them and a nice brass slammer. Clearly I needed to fit in with my older brothers and that’s basically all I know about them.

Another facet (at least specifically in America) is to de-stigmatize discussing personal income among the working class. We’ve been melt-brained hard to think it’s as private and taboo as discussing one’s most deep and darkest sexual kinks when really it’s just a tool of the owners to keep workers indentured in the wage-slave economy.

Is this another edition of The Simpsons did it first?

I thought you were referring to The Doctor from Star Trek: Voyager and was about to pitch a fit but, yeah—fuck Whom’st Doctor Doth Darken Mine Teleboothe

as someone who is in their mid 30s… Kingdom Hearts? And I really only played the first one where’s he’s (if I remember correctly) just kinda talked about and teased at the end. I would be really shocked if anyone had any actual feelings toward him as a character in any meaningful way other than him being a mascot. Did he even win a sportsball recently?

Can’t say it’s the best but a really good one is Sir Arne’s Treasure. Its a silent film (which is a misnomer because they were always accompanied by live music back in the day). But it’s beautifully shot.

There is some very incredible work in films leading up until the introduction of recorded audio which basically threw cinematography back a good 40 years in development due to the noise they created and how actors had to be blocked to just record their dialog.

Good, let the people who live there live there.

Why do you have so many tabs open?

I think most general use kitchen knives are fine being maintained with a honing steel, usually sharpening with a whetstone is for when the edge is genuinely damaged. If you own quality knives the manufacturer should have re-edging services. I’d just send them off to get fixed and learn proper honing steel techniques rather than going overboard with whetstones—more likely you’ll just further fuck up your blade.

Who wouldn’t be afeared of a Canadian ghost?! Although it’d probably just apologize for its haunting.
