Until you need to fight an army of mantis-people…

Oof. Same.

I figured “memory is cheap, I have time”

checks memory prices, weeps

He was in an unwinnable situation. If he had said they weren’t prepared for a rescue mission and returned to space dock, the press would have put “Captain Runaway” all over the place. He never would have lived it down.

So instead he never gets to live down being the captain “responsible” for kirk’s death, and has to endure smear campaigns anyway.

I never understood the incredulity from everyone.

Starfleet pushed for this PR stunt, knowing the Enterprise wasn’t actually ready for a real shakedown cruise. This was supposed to be a proverbial sail around the harbor. They weren’t even going that far in the solar system.

But you know how space is, enterprise has to be the closest/only ship in the sector. Despite Earth being the base of operations for the federation and definitely one of dozens of ships that should be loitering around the sector at any given time, let alone the ships in space dock that are fully operational and while maybe a little light on crew due to being in space dock can be ready in 5 minutes with a sizeable chunk of experienced crew…

Captain Cam gets an undeserved bad reputation from being handed a chainsaw and asked to perform surgery on a grape.

I love when people loredump. After they’ve said their piece, I usually have to tell them I have absolutely no idea what they’re talking about since I’m not part of that particular niche Fandom but by all means keep telling me things about it.

No, I don’t know anything about sailor moon, but please do continue talking about it, because you clearly enjoy it and you’re making me enjoy it if only for 20 minutes. (also that thing you said reminded me of something from stargate sg-1 so pls listen to that later and then we can compare the two)

And if you got to week 9 and it’s almost week 10, would you not be mildly upset about it?

I remember slow shipping and was usually upset if my “6-8 week” took the full 8 weeks.

Honestly this description makes me less likely to try it.

More for the rest of you I guess!

“it’s not the taste, it’s the consistency”

You’d think with all the rich fucks there, NIMBY would become their whole personality.

If anyone at work would go “why are you looking at that here? That’s inappropriate” then it’s “not safe for work”

Sure, there isn’t nudity, but that’s not what NSFW means…

Just saw bits of it the other day, and while not really surprised at some of the faces, I was definitely disappointed.

There is anamount of money that could make me sell out for something like polymarket, it’s so insanely high that I could simply buy the entirety of the United States.

You know, I think this comic might not be 100% accurate on naming conventions…

“you’re a hypocrite because you were born in a wealthy country and other people were not” sure is a take.

“you guys… got what you wanted”

crazy how an election system designed by people who never want to leave power could get me a leadership neither I nor anyone I care about voted for.

We hopefully will never “own” or occupy neighboring countries, but it doesn’t change how massive our country is.

Just go ahead and fiddle around with different US states or the country itself, and you’ll find out quite easily just how big the “united” states are.

Spoken like someone who has absolutely no idea what it’s like to try and organize people scattered across a fucking continent.

Specifically a continent with very poor access to public services that would make organization easier.

A continent where even speaking out can cost your your job and therefore Healthcare.

A continent where your neighbor might be someone who agrees with you, or they might blow your head off because they thought you might vote for a lefty.

A continent where the government has already threatened to murder any citizen they want just for fighting back against their authoritarian boot. A continent where your closest regional capital might be hours away.

My state is larger than most European countries. The logistics of organizing real action on this scale is insane. And a lot of very rich people have spent a lot of money for a very long time to make sure it’s as hard to do anything about their tyrannical bullshit as possible.

The best most of us can do is vote, try and organize like-minded people locally, and survive the next week.

Pffft.

Janeway didn’t order Tuvix murdered.

She stepped up like a goddamn lady and did it herself.

I prefer Newman-Os just for the niche community memes.

I wish my family would be this chill about it.

It’s gonna be an interesting day when they eventually figure it out.

Goddamn ableist bastard!
