Anything but Yelp. Depending.

That’s the episode I cited.

Weird. My stay at home mom and favorite aunt watched it back when TVs had 5 stations on a dial. They introduced me, female, to it at a young age. None of us are Trump voters.
The only dislike expressed was for the Spock’s brain episode. They still talk about what a terrible episode they thought it was.
Where is this article getting their demographic numbers, wishful thinking? The wiki says it’s always been a diverse viewership with a slight skew to male.

Yes. The character arcs are the best thus far. It’s less “police procedural” than the prior two. And Sisko is the best Captain.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Yes. That’s from Deep Space Nine. S5E6 Trials and Tribbleations. A neat mashup that puts the DS9 crew into the original tribbles episode.

This is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Star Trek is the original woke.
A black woman was part of command staff on the bridge.
They entertained TVs first interracial kiss.
Their society doesn’t involve money.
They have a no interference policy as the prime directive, completely opposite the bottom line of the United States.
Roddenberry knew Takei was gay.
For an example of TOS’ level of woke, please refer to Season 3, Episode 15: Let That Be Your Last Battlefield

He wants pets and is using the stair edges to handle it himself.

Any media we can own outright is a win.

No, this is more common, or at least it’s more talked about, than 30 years ago.
Worse, if we can get some hard data on this, it may reinforce the trend that humans have way more stress than they should regarding unfiltered things. No, not stress, stress in general is normal. Capacity. They have no capacity, or willingness, to process through it, they’d rather run away and hide so they do that instead.
Similar to MurderBot diaries, in that MurderBot struggles with his human interactions, thinks eye contact is the absolute worst, and so, instead of using his own eyes to interact, he uses the eyes of his little drones to watch the humans in his life.

I wasn’t even aware it was a sub, but if course it is. What could possibly be so alluring in paramount that has a bigger pull than Disney and ESPN content?

What’s the boycott there?

GOG. It’s not all games, but you can own some of them. Steam, in spite of the CEO that keeps it decent, started this lease under the guise of buying model.
That said, subs are much worse. If the Disney/Kimmel situation taught us anything, it’s that boycotts work.
Subs are costing most Americans, on average, $300/mo. (More Perfect Union covered it.). That’s a monthly grocery bill for 1-2, if you buy right and cook. Subs are part of the “squeeze” that siphons money to the top 1%.

Doesn’t even have to be a doctor. An ED or ICU nurse would cover most needs.

I’m still convinced flat earthers are an internet hoax/troll.

I think it was a joke. A little levity in the midst of all this chaos and intentional hardship.
Yes, the deal with dairy farmers drinking the unpasteurized milk from their cows daily is that it’s consumed within 24hrs and then replaced with the next days milk.
RFK is a dipshit and MAGA is likely running with him for two reasons. Cutting FDA regs, insurance policing, fluoride, and vaccines save money. (Put another way, it keeps “their” money where it belongs, away from the working class.) It also thins the herd in the continuing decline of available resources while the planet fails.

Consider the luffa next. It’s a squash of sorts that grows on a vine. The inner matrix of the large zucchini looking fruits is the luffa sponge. Zone 10.
- Comment on Anon tries to meet girls at college 2 months ago:
This isn’t just an Anon problem anymore. My partner is a supervisor and he keeps having to have conversations with the 25 and younger crowd about showering, wearing clean clothes, and either wearing deodorant or coming up with other solutions for working in an environment with other people present. Men and women, 18-25.
