“hmm, I’m bored. Oh look here’s some people enjoying a small laugh. Imma shit on the fun. How DARE they enjoy a joke I personally don’t like. The FOOLS! THE ABSOLUTE MORONS! I simply MUST tell people their frivolity is absurd.”
Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

Well, most likely you will be the poor fucker.
Or you’ll show up next time to a little thank you note and a small box with a single beer inside.
I guess you couod show up to all the wood gone, but fingers crossed!


I spent roughly 2 hours getting into geoguessing…
I did some quick and easy ones, with like obvious signs and stuff. After spending 30 minutes tracking down flight info based on the time the photo was taken, I decided I didn’t have the dedication for such things and if I couldn’t figure it out in 2 minutes based on signs and landmarks, I’m okay with not knowing the exact location a picture was taken.
Hats off to the stalker-level people who can pinpoint the specific 30ft area in a cornfield a video was taken based on time of day, the color of the dirt, a specific toad croak at 12m37s into the video, etc…


My gender-non-specific human, why do you insist on calling every single person here shitty for calling out BS reddit tactics?
Are you in love with their CEO or something? It’s a little weird.


I got banned from about 15 subreddits I never even knew existed once by calling out a transphobic dogwhistle, and when I inquired about the bans, the mods insinuated I was a child molester and neo-nazi.
Reddit mods don’t need to follow any sort of logic.
And confidently asserting someone is a dick because they got banned from a subreddit is hilarious, and should probably prompt some self-reflection.


That’s what I’ve always heard, and though I can’t think of where I vaguely remember seeing an interview/BTS style video where he said they had to make some assumptions based only on the trailer, the poster, and things Lucas had said himself.
Spot on though, you’d think it was made after the prequels came out.
But I don’t want to date a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant.
Oh wait, that’s a different kind…


My wife started out with tons of republican views, she just didn’t vote ever.
Through conversations about the state of things, pointing* out hypocrisy, and validating the feelings her religious family was telling her to suppress, I’m happy to say I’ve managed to marry a leftist. She didn’t even really have the liberal pit-stop many of us take.
I’ll take 100,000 leftists married/dating/whatever to 100,000 liberals over 200,000 conservatives any day of the week.


I meant widow, sorry for not being clear.


Most people I know didn’t even know Kirk was married until his assassination planner window* started making the news screeching about how much of a saint he was.
*widow


Because their only experience with anything involving trans people is in porn, and there is a huge amount of trans-fem content when compared to trans-masc.
So they literally don’t think about FtM trans people at all.
It’s also why many of them view trans people simply existing as inherently sexual.


And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default “0000000” password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they’re incompatible with the internet.
It’s disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.


Useless knowledge: a black hole can technically exist inside a super-massive star.
The gravity of the black hole pulls in hydrogen, the force of the hydrogen fusion and Hawking radiation pressure from the black hole try to push the hydrogen/star stuff out.
For awhile at least, with enough supply of hydrogen (that likely doesn’t exist in a large concentrated enough supply), it can hold itself in balance as the biggest star you’ve never seen.
Note: take this with a grain of salt, this is my understanding of a kurzgesagt video I watched while high.


Too many to count, and more than I even remember.
I went without internet in an area not friendly to children being outside, so I watched movies in no particular order over and over. Just “yeah I haven’t watched this in a few weeks” and re-watch.
Lord of The Rings, Star Wars, Star Trek, Monty Python (all), Princess Bride, MIB, Evolution, Terminator 1&2, Starship Trooper… Honestly most popular Sci fi movies from the 90s… The sound of music, fiddler on the roof, a bunch of musicals…
I’m sure I watched the classic disney movies many times.
I know people who buy watch a movie and then don’t feel like watching any of them ever again.


Why do that and risk actually losing, when you can go after the small guy and send a message to the plebs?


It’s an accurate snapshot of the American executive branch right now
Don’t sell us short, it’s also an accurate snapshot of the legislative and judicial branches, as well as about 30% of the general population!

[X] Doubt

I’ve slowly gotten a couple people around on “collective bargaining”, I’m avoiding using the big scary U word to them

My employer “encourages” everyone to clock in for the day and from lunch up to 7 minutes early.
My employer also likes to take any and every opportunity to punish people for “abusing breaks” which here means “you walked to the break area and took your 15 minute break and walked back to your station” instead of "15minutes starts at your station and ends at your station so you really only get an 8-12 minute break depending on how far you have to walk.
And forget about bathroom breaks outside your 15s and lunch.
My employer also pays the same every single week, regardless of whether you clocked in 7 minutes early every day or exactly on time.
My employer calls our “abuse” of breaks and lack of clocking in early “wage theft”
The first time I got written up for going to the bathroom and he said “wage theft” I went and printed out 100 copies of a wage theft guide with sources and graphs to demonstrate how employers are the #1 driver of wage theft and it’s not even close. Plastered them all over where there are no cameras.
No joke, when I saw the thumbnail I was just about to go looking through my photos because my dog looks very similar (terrier Chihuahua mix so his snout is a little longer) and he loves wrapping up in my tortilla pattern blanket.
