Georgiou also got fridged for Michael’s character development. And then we follow Michael over the timeskip. Right out the gate, the universe exists to tell a story about Michael.

I think Zero might be a he/they enby

Insulting Janeway’s coffee is a dangerous move, holo-Rok

Mariner interrupts Boimler’s captain’s log in S1E1

Having a good clone protocol is important. Rok had the right idea.

I hope Robert Beltran isn’t around next season. Surely they can recast Chakotay. Maybe give the role to an actual native turtle islander?

“I haven’t seen a crew this dysfunctional since the Cerritos.”

Hey a Lower Decks reference!

This is so cool. I bet Beta Shift would love it.

I’m going to vote ranked choice, because first past the post is antidemocratic!

4, 1, 2, 3

I don’t use he/him. Stop misgendering me.

I am indeed DroneRights, and I believe I was banned unfairly. I made an appeal here: https://lemm.ee/post/18862720, but never received any follow-up from the Beehaw admins.

Wow, obsessed with me much?

Mods, this user is an alt-right troll. Ban him. Here he is repeatedly saying xenogenders are a mental illness.

Also n*rcissist is 100% a slur don’t call me that.

To be fair the blonde bombshell in a catsuit was initially nonbinary.

And then Janeway immediately gave it conversion therapy and told it to be a woman.

Well we write 12 like this: 10

It’s easy

These pods are only used on rails with very low ridership. They would switch to a train if ridership increased.

Look at it this way: you can have a train that has a capacity of 100 people, but it only runs once a day due to the low demand, and only 2 people want to ride it at that time of day…Or you can have 10 pods, which do not require as much railway maintenance, and they can carry the 10 people who actually want to use this railway, completely on demand.

Yeah, a train is better if you want to move ten thousand people a day at peak hour. But this is a cheaper way to move ten people at different times across a day. And it’s a cheaper way of inducing the demand that would justify the more efficient kind of expansion.

If bug bites are a normal part of mosquito life, why would a mosquito consider it to be ironic that they were bitten? They’d just think it’s normal.

Foxes like eating rabbits, but wolves like eating foxes. Do you think a fox who gets eaten by a wolf while snacking on a rabbit thinks “that’s ironic”? Not unless a human who got eaten by a tiger while eating a hamburger thought it was ironic. No, to carnist humans, foxes, and mosquitoes, eating other animals is a fact of life, unremarkable. This comic relies on the premise that a mosquito would think of the human-mosquito relationship the same way a human would. But they wouldn’t. A mosquito, even an intelligent talking mosquito, would not feel that much empathy for humans, just as most humans choose not to feel empathy for cows.

Actually, cats really are alive and dead at the same time according to the many worlds interpretation. Under classical quantum mechanics, we say that superpositions collapse when observed, and since the cat is an observer of the quantum event (since the cat would die if the atom decayed), then the cat’s presence resolves the superposition. Thus, the cat is never in superposition.

However, according to the many worlds interpretation, observation does not collapse superposition. Rather, it simply expands the superposition to include the observer. So the cat, as an observer of the quantum event, really is both alive and dead. And at the moment that you open the box to see whether the cat died, you will also observe the quantum event and become part of the superposition as well. You will both see a dead cat, and see a living cat. But your consciousness only experiences one of these possibilities. Presumably, you have another consciousness in the other possibility observing the cat in the other state. Two separate timelines have been created, which will each progress on their own according to causality. We may also call these timelines worlds or universes, seeing as they’re mostly self contained.

But it says it’s from the 8th of may 2024. Are you saying the posting bot would lie to me?

Problem is once the government has the power to disarm criminals, they can make revolution illegal, call revolutionaries criminals, and prevent the population from rising up against the oligarchy. The only two good things America did is kill Nazis, and kill monarchists. And it looks like the second amendment is going to protect their right to do both after Project 2025. In my country we have very strict gun control laws, which is why I own a bow for self defence and Nazi killing.

Presidential candidate Trump claims to be tough on crime. But is that really true? Record incarceration rates, increased violence, increased crime statistics. President Biden is the toughest president on crime yet. Debt forgiveness, decriminalisation of drugs, police reforms, rehabilitative incarceration, mental health subsidies, affordable healthcare, and free housing make Biden America’s biggest enemy of crime. President Biden: say no to crime.

Whitehouse should just run this ad and actually implement these policies. Start redefining what it means to be tough on crime. It’s not hard, it just takes actually disagreeing with reactionaries on premises. Unfortunately, Biden is trying his damndest to lose the election this year.
