Yep, better disclaimers are inevitable. When they call it a ‘feature’ it isn’t getting fixed
Fully agree and I wish the situation was better. I’ll keep it on the level, genocide is a deal-breaker for me. I’m surprised it’s not a deal breaker for other people too to be honest. And it’s awful that our only choices are awful candidates. Really makes you wonder how we got here and I can’t help but feel that this a vote blue no matter who bullshit along with Dems always backing incumbents Even when they’re terrible has paved the way for our present situation. That’s not going to get better unless we do something to change it. We found ourselves in afucked up hole and the first step to finding a way out is to stop digging.
I hope you’re right though I guess there’s a lot of people that are going to vote for him even though he is enabling genocide, I hope he decides to turn it around and start representing voters.
And you get to order someone shot in the foot (but let’s be real, they’re going to end up shot in the face regardless face) so congrats on giving the order too I guess
The whole point is saying I’d rather not get shot at all and I’m not going to give any approval to get shot anywhere. Especially when the question is actually closer to where would I like to shoot some random civilian. I’m not going to give approval to shoot them in the foot nor the face.
my genocider is better than
yourthe other genocider, so much so that I’ll give my active and explicit support to my genocider

Wait no, not direct action like that. You’re no supposed to try to influence the lesser of two evils. /s
The president has been dogged by pro-Palestinian protesters at his public events for months, with his team now taking steps to shield him from the public shaming over his handling of the Israel-Hamas war. Biden has had to switch to smaller events, the locations of which are kept hushed until the last possible moment to evade protesters
Love to see the direct addition but JFC Biden will do anything to avoid ending aid to genocide and anything to avoid representing voters’ stances. “Oh while trying to secure the election I’ll just have smaller unannounced rallies instead of pulling my head out of my ass”
Explicitly what I’d already addressed because rather than admit Biden is onboard with genocide people gotta “what about something else…” Yeah other guy would be worse but Biden is still enabling genocide. Fact.
A vote for Biden is a vote for genocide. I’m not saying that to abstain or vote for the other guy isn’t the same, as bad, or worse; but 100% a vote for Biden is a vote for genocide.
gotta make the water hard too, doesn’t work without hard water
Florida is going to be so pissed at TST for getting all this PR and fund raising while adding to their impressive list of accomplishments listed below:

A lot of the articles in the earlier link have links within to additional sources many of them are links to court documents but some are needs stories like this one. https://www.newsweek.com/orgies-harassment-fraud-satanic-temple-rocked-accusations-lawsuit-1644042 obviously Newsweek isn’t great but I’m on Mobile atm and it’s the first one I found, I’m sure you can find more and from better sources in their article or a search and a lil time
Because TST is shit and can’t follow through on their promises and use the courts to go after dissenters.
Plenty of reading at https://queersatanic.com/articles/ but a pattern becomes visible pretty quickly.
0% interest would have been better but the banks that process/hold the government guaranteed loans would no longer profit so they aren’t going to let that happen.
I feel like that was the mantra in early September. It’s too bad it didn’t stick but I’m on board with reviving this one.
partially sarcastic, Tasha Yar as a character had big potential and was intended to be cooler but they started off on the wrong foot, never corrected, and never developed her.
The wikipedia rabbit hole for Tasha Yar and her actor Denise Crosby is an interesting one. Some of the creators thought she was the most interesting character in the “show bible” so maybe it was the episode writers that missed the message and gave her such empty stories and flubbed what could have been a cool character. Either way it would have been interesting to see a woman in the role of chief of security and another big leap in the progressiveness of star trek.
TOS had post cold war russians, and showed that black people are part of the future. Aside from briefly having a woman in charge of security I can’t think of any progressive traits on TNG other than negotiating and 1st contact (are Picard’s bag and) better that fighting. Don’t get me wrong through I still hold a special place for TNG, just finished a rewatch not too long ago, but on second-ish watch, with the rose tinted glasses off, it is disappointing they had an opportunity to make a statement about a brighter, freer, more equitable future but ended up going with rape gangs and forced marriage (oh and fucking Data) instead.
So yeah the character ended up weak but was originally intended to be a bad ass. missed opportunity for something cooler and bigger.
Wait wait wait, are you trying to say that a character whose first big episode s1e4 saw them, as the head of security, get kidnapped for a forced marriage and had a character background of [checks notes] planet of rape gangs wasn’t enough of a character?
Early TNG wasn’t great, not surprising Denise Crosby asked to be released from her contract early. Fully agree they did her dirty with that death story but glad they still brought her back a few times
I read somewhere they were working on dos3 and put it on hold when bg3 came up. If they go back and work on the dos series I’ll be there for it!
