The pronouns are right there in his name. And he was obviously referring to Kamala’s promise to keep arming the genocidal zionist entity so it can continue its genocide against the Palestinian people.

That was Sisko, in “For the Cause”

I have, it fucking rules

It’s not actually the onion it’s some lib copycat

I haven’t run an OS off a spinning disk for over a decade but I still remember how big the leap in general usability was when switching to SSD

It’s also dangerous to walk outdoors at all. I saw the aftermath of a drunk driver killing a pedestrian at 6 AM a few days ago. There was debris spread for at least a hundred meters down the road. The news said the driver was uninjured.

A very lenient punishment

Excerpted from the blurb for this “what went wrong with capitalism” book:

What went wrong with capitalism? Ruchir Sharma’s account is not like any you will have heard before. He says progressives are right, in part, when they mock modern capitalism as “socialism for the rich.” For a century, governments have expanded in just about every measurable dimension, from spending to regulation and the scale of financial rescues when the economy wobbles. The result is expensive state guarantees for everyone—bailouts for the rich, entitlements for the middle class, welfare for the poor.

He thinks what went wrong with capitalism is that’s it’s not as laissez-faire as the robber baron era anymore.

He should on no account be allowed within 500m of a child, ever. If that means beaming him into space without a suit since the Voyager is only 343 meters long, so much the better.

Is this giving Neelix credit for being less creepy after Kes wasn’t there for him to creep on anymore?

When Linux doesn’t do what I want, it’s never because it was deliberately designed not to do what I want in order to increase shareholder value

High speed rail is very safe.

Star Trek should absolutely be gatekept from conservatives.

When the whole Cerritos crew was having an orgy in 2x08 (in a holodeck sim, but then you cited holodecks sims first) Billups was sitting there in the nude reading happily on his own.

I took his mother’s choice of who to send to him as more evidence of her trying anything and everything (other than just accepting his asexuality) than knowing his actual interests.

Also, aromantic and asexual are different things and do not necessarily go together, so showing romantic interest does not necessarily disprove asexuality.

Right. The only thing missing from this analysis, I think, is that it’s less about his desire to be a Starfleet engineer than his asexuality. I think if his mom would just stop trying to trick him into doing the weird sex ritual he’d be happy playing with dragonbreath instead of warp plasma.
