    2023 Celebrity Death Thread

    No, his most remembered role will be that of the perfect father, Tucker Cobblepot.

    Anti-Semitism

    He's a Kennedy. The family has always been a bit off. Even JFK and Robert Sr had some serious issues, despite how well liked they were.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    True. It HAS only been about a week. Feels like longer, though.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    I'm ready surprised that Meta hasn't sued X for trademark infringement yet.

    The US Supreme Court and its decisions

    Maybe it's time to start impeaching court members then. I know fat chance of that happening with the current congress, but it IS specifically allowed by the US constitution.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Worst part is they are only shutting down certain libraries. Other schools in the same district get to keep their libraries. Looks like they are basing it on test scores, closing the libraries in schools with lower literacy rates(which I can almost guarantee are all in lower income areas)...

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Heh, forgot about mead. Pretty much every non-plant based alcoholic beverage(or at least the two I know of) is one step removed from plants, really. Kumis starts as horse milk and horses eat plants, after all.

    What stupid thing did the GOP say or do this time? Episode 3!

    Some cultures drink fermented horse milk, which is slightly alcoholic, outside of that, I'm not sure.

    Escalating anti-LGBT+ hate and the terrorism it inspires

    It's the modern Republican Party. The only way they know how to retain power is to sow fear and anger.(outside of rigging the system to ensure minority control, anyway) Hopefully whatever token Democrats end up at the hearing evicerate the whole premise of said theater.

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    He had similar issues back with his old online banking site by same name. A lot of people assumed it was a porn site, not a finance site just due to the name(It's why we have PayPal now, not X, the other executives at the company knew better). Curious how much he paid Paypal to get the x.com...

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    True, but Oculus didn't have nearly the brand recognition that Twitter did. VR is still a niche market despite the fad that occurred several years ago. One could argue that Quest was a more important part of the branding that Oculus was, at least recently.

    Great, now I've got that MST3K bit stuck in my head again...

    Futurama - new season on Hulu

    Won't be one of my favorite episodes, but it wasn't bad.

    So I am making a video game.....

    Liked all of those, outside of Super Star Wars.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Outside of the Founders and Q, most races with extreme abilities are seen maybe once or twice. The Tholians are interesting. They only thrive in extreme heat and their technology is rather unique.

    The Random Image Thread

    Funny thing is, I still have an AOL address. I keep it around for a few old accounts that won't let me change the registered email address and for sites that want an e-mail address that I'm sure only want it to sell to spam farms.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    I'd argue that the final season of Enterprise had a spark of what could have been, but it was too late by that point and then they decided to ruin the whole thing in the series finale. It did flesh out the Andorians and gave us Commander Shran, so I can't dismiss it completely.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    I think a lot of my dislike for section 31 probably does stem from the stuff done in 'Into Darkness' and later, but even in DS9 it felt a little 'off', just not to the 'we're building giant battleships in secret' level off.(What is it with Abrams and secret large-scale construction projects anyway?)

    The Twit destroying Twitter is a Twaitor

    Well, it probably helps that Tesla wasn't founded by Musk and they probably have a 'Musk Mitigation Team' to trick Musk into not going too crazy with his demands, like SpaceX reportedly does.. Twitter didn't have the luxury of doing that, unfortunately.

    Star Trek General Discussion

    Section 31 was probably the worst thing DS9 introduced to the Star Trek universe, really. We already had Starfleet Intelligence, did we really need some shadow quasi-legal organization that both is and isn't part of the Federation government? It's like they just wanted a Federation equivalent...
