Well, that got weird.
- Comment on 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better 1 day ago:
Yeah, the whole wrap up of Batel’s storyline was pretty stupid, NGL.
I don’t understand why they didn’t just go with the moral dilemma of having to choose between her life or the possibly dozens of baby Gorn that were growing inside her.
I mean, if you want to have a heart-wrenching example of how far Star Fleet is willing to go, in the name of peace and the preservation of innocent lives…leaving Batel to choose whether or not to sacrifice herself, in exchange for them…as well as the prospect of continued peace between the Federation and the Gorn? Wow. Now, that would have been a powerful display of compassion and benevolence.
None of this “Universal Star-child” bullshit. Just a good old fashioned moral dilemma, about the needs of the many, outweighing the needs of the few.
- Comment on Washington Post Columnist Says She Was Fired for Posts After Charlie Kirk Shooting | Karen Attiah said she was fired for “speaking out against political violence” and America’s apathy toward guns. 1 day ago:
The US mediasphere is 100% falling in lockstep with the Trump administration’s narrative. The US is fucked.
- Comment on Elon Musk is trying to silence Microsoft employees who criticize Charlie Kirk 4 days ago:
So, he wants to make it so just criticizing Charlie Kirk is off limits, now?
Lol! Wut? I thought this guy told everyone he was a “free speech absolutist”. What a clown.
- Comment on Why do conservatives define being fascist solely as "being violent?" 4 days ago:
Because they don’t want to admit that they’re fascists, so they leave out all the characteristics that would confirm that they are.

“What did they ever do to me?”

Wouldn’t it be nice to live in his tiny little bubble?
- Comment on No I'm really not sorry. George Floyd was a father too, and before old Charlie had his personal turning point he called him a scumbag. 5 days ago:
Giving your wife a crampie does not automatically make you a good person.
- Comment on Do you meditate? 6 days ago:
It actually makes multitasking easier. If you loosen your concentration, you can actually focus on more than one thing at a time. My job is very detail-oriented, and sometimes involves long periods of repetitive manual tasks, that require both mental and physical concentration in order to perform correctly. This type of meditation helps me do everything easily, and without any mistakes.
Once I get in “the zone”, I can use both my left and right hands with the same degree of control, and can maintain focus on several tasks at once without having to “switch” back and forth between them. Timing and precision just seem to melt together, and everything becomes effortless and smooth.
Then before I know it, hours have flown by in what feels like minutes, but I haven’t lost any time. I remember every detail of what I did. It’s like my mind goes quiet, my body goes full-auto, and my entire awareness is just there to observe, record and occasionally course-correct.
- Comment on Do you meditate? 1 week ago:
You don’t necessarily have to think about “nothing”. Just think about what’s right in front of you, and then the next thing and the next thing. Be present in this each moment, and then let that moment go, so that you can be present in the next one. Time flies by, but you don’t miss an instant. No distractions. No attachments.
- Comment on What percentage of the world population ages 30+ do you suppose is capable of financially supporting themselves & living & thriving independently? 1 week ago:
The top ten percent. That’s it.
- Comment on Do you meditate? 1 week ago:
Every day, as often as possible. I do waking meditation while I work. It improves focus and concentration, and makes the hours fly by.
- Comment on We are helping 1 week ago:
That’s not actually as true as people have been led to believe. If cow farts were really such a large factor, then we would have already been having a climate change issue, based simply on the natural dietary habits of grazing animals.
The majority of the emissions attributed to the meat industry are due to background factors involved in their care and upkeep. It’s a very resource heavy process, that produces an enormous amount of waste. They include everything in their assessments, from their food production, all the way down to heating and electricity requirements for their facilities. Depending on the area, that can be as bad as coal-burning power plants and diesel engines to harvest hay. Nothing about the meat industry is “clean”.
- Comment on We are helping 1 week ago:
Most of the problem with meat production comes from the way we produce meat, rather than the amount. Which is inevitably dictated by big money interests, simply being allowed to do whatever they want, in order to maximize profit margins.
- Comment on Will Smith, Westbrook Sign First-Look Deal With Paramount to Make Franchise Films 1 week ago:
Hollywood’s most toxic couple? No thanks.
- Comment on don't trust cowboys or people doing cowboy voices 2 weeks ago:
This was a direct quote from Trump.
- Comment on Would it be weird to ask my brother if I could tag along when he goes out with his friends? 3 weeks ago:
Not weird to ask. Just don’t invite yourself without asking. That might be a little weird.
- Comment on Age Verification Lobby Pushes For Age Verification Checks For VPN Use 4 weeks ago:
Ummm…you mean like providing them with a credit card in order to pay for the VPN service? Does anyone actually trust “free” VPNs to not sell your data?
- Comment on Debatable 4 weeks ago:
Aah, yes…the ever-popular “Ancient Greek Maid” cut.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Well…that award effectively means nothing, now.
- Comment on UK pornography taskforce to propose banning ‘barely legal’ content after Channel 4 documentary airs 1 month ago:
Probably all the same people complaining about this, are the same ones who support “traditional values” like child marriage.
- Comment on You Don’t Remember Being a Baby, but Your Brain Was Making Memories 1 month ago:
Well, now that is a cute baby.
- Comment on US criticizes French inquiry into social media platform X 1 month ago:
It is such a stupid thing for Twitter to “deny” this is happening. Of course it’s happening. Everyone knows it’s happening. The problem lies with, what are they expecting Twitter to DO about it? Ban anyone who posts anti-establishment or non-conforming content?
What twitter should be doing, is banning any and all bot users from the platform. This would solve the majority of the problem. No bot armies…no artificially amplified narratives.
Will twitter do this? Fuck no. That’s why Twitter sucks. France should just ban the whole platform, if they want the interference to stop.
- Comment on You don’t see articles like this about moms with three two jobs who still manage to take care of their kids. 1 month ago:
Imagine believing that just thinking about your job, equates to “working”. Give me a break.
- Comment on Donald Trump Said He Promised Ivanka He Wouldn't Date Girls Younger Than Her | “So as she grows older, the field is getting very limited.” 😬 1 month ago:
And obviously there was a reason she made this request.

Whelp. Better slap some tariffs on that shit, fast. It’s the only way to fix it. /s
- Comment on My son got Nikes so he doesn't get teased. 2 months ago:
When I was young (in the late 80’s) it was Air Jordans.
But, on top of being teased for not having them, you would also get jumped by kids who wanted to steal them from you.
- Comment on If corporations are the GOP and the GOP are corporations why isn't it assumed that corporations will stem inflation due to tarrifs while the GOP is in power even if its at loss? 2 months ago:
Why would losing money, “consolidate power for the GOP”? The only people that matter to the GOP are the ones that stand to lose money. Their interests come first. The peasants will do as they’re told, regardless.
