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.

  • 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.

  • Yes, it does.

    So why doesn't the other person ever bother picking theirs up first for a change?

  • Every public figure who uses the term “Gulf of America” should be taken out to the exact center of it and left there in a life boat.

    No need to waste the life boat...

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

  • My hometown has a kenworth plant

    Kenworth has a bad habit of putting huge parking lots for their truck everywhere they can, and then leaving them unattended for months on end.

    Kenworth learned the hard way that they need to keep better control over where they leave their shit, otherwise people who have a reason to hate them (which is a lot of people around there) might fuck with their trucks and cause millions in damages.

  • The rich Douchebags that control every country don't give a shit if the plebs starve. They'll never know hunger.

    "Eat the rich", as always.

  • I don't do it on purpose, but sometimes the speed limit changes and I don't notice until someone passes me and I look at the GPS and see I'm going too slow.

    I wait for the passing cars to get ahead of me before speeding up though.

  • You don't even need the civics class, just watch that one schoolhouse rock video.

  • If I had the means, I'd have left years ago.

  • Having already brought this point up with a MAGAt at work, she honestly thinks they will make exceptions for all married women.

    The mental gymnastics and denial of reality is exhausting.

  • And cheap to boot. Super duper simple. Honestly you could make your own with a set of mini pliers and a stiff paper clip.

    It's just two points to hold either side of the stem while you rotate it out.

    I have a few at any given time since I work on bicycles in my spare time, and have passed out a few at protests.

  • Even as a child, I was confused by "Support Our Troops" because if you want to support them, why are you sending them to die on the other side of the planet? If you want to support them, why are so many veterans being denied Healthcare?

    My dad is a veteran with service related hearing loss, and getting anything from the VA is like trying to grab the sun. I've heard so many stories from vets trying to get their various injuries just looked at.

    "support our troops" was always just a canned line to make idiots feel good about sending others to die for the rich.

  • 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!

  • You know, I was considering putting the potential downside of "one country might just have a young and jacked leader that can thrash all the old rich people" but figured my comment was getting too long for anyone to care to read.

    I think at that point the people would just have to chuck him in an active volcano instead of a pit.

  • worth

    From someone who remembers the people's champions....

    [X] Doubt

  • Everybody gangsta till the snow starts speaking Finnish.

  • It's mind-boggling that the entire history of war hasn't been "our leaders decided they wanted a war so we tossed them in a pit with sharp sticks to figure things out and suddenly they decided war was avoidable"

    We have more in common with a random American Crack dealer, a random middle-Eastern farmer, Chinese retail worker, South American factory worker, than anyone who leads major countries, anyone in the 1%.

    I have no ill will toward any Iranian, in fact I've known quite a few immigrants and think better of Iran than most US states, yet my country leaders decided it was a good idea to bomb the fuck out of them. We should toss them in a hole until they can work together with the rest of us, yet here we are...

  • I'm not a fan of nukes.

    I say we get about 1,000 people, some bulldozers, and then squish everything into one big pile in the middle. That should be enough, but we can always run over it a few times with a steamroller for good measure.

    Call it "Mt. Capitalism" or maybe "Mt. Inheritance" and leave it as a warning.

  • No, it's not possible they're allergic to the base, as they would be allergic to their own body. Your body produces it, and you ingest it in plenty of other foods.

    But hey, I'm glad you're not a scientist, and I don't have to hope since you're confidently making assertions with no knowledge base to pull from, like a shitty person might do.

  • Personal anecdote from cooking for years for a variety of people of varying intelligence, background, and countries:

    Most people claim it gives them headaches and nausea.

    They "know" this because they feel it every time they eat (american) "Chinese food"

    Not a single one has ever had either symptom after eating my cooking that has a little sprinkled in.

    Now, I have tried to prove a point to some by informing them (many hours after the food, and asking about how they feel) that they in fact ingested MSG without issue and had no symptoms, usually to rounds of spontaneous nausea and headaches that had apparently gone unnoticed for hours until just then.

    It could be that ingesting a shit-load of greasy, oily, carbs and over-eating that caused their nausea and headaches when they gorged themselves on "Chinese" food, but no, they know it's the MSG.
