FordBeeblebrox,

I’d say my cats look more like the top with “claw” instead of dig and the loyalty/protect family is still there but it’s the “I can punch my brother but no one else can” version. Never had a cat that plays fetch before so play is definitely in there.

FordBeeblebrox,

Ten forward is where it at

FordBeeblebrox,

It makes my nerd heart happy that the most prolific posters are Trekkies, that’s the internet I left reddit for.

FordBeeblebrox,

Yeah I guess c/startrek is the one I see most now, I’m subscribed to a few

FordBeeblebrox,

The usher taking tickets is more concerned about hooking up with the girl working concessions than anything you got in your pocket

FordBeeblebrox,

Janeway did nothing wrong

FordBeeblebrox,

Every time I rewatch an episode I find another Easter egg, it really is Trek by and for Trekkies

FordBeeblebrox,

I think it matches with the prequel aspect before Starfleet was really a thing, and it matches up beautifully with the montage of Big E’s evolution. DS9 has the best instrumental but ENT’s intro is great.

FordBeeblebrox,

My grandpa was a reactor monkey on the CVN Enterprise and the primary reason I’m such a huge sci-fi nerd, every time I see Big E in the intro it makes me think of him and hopeful we’ll see NCC-1701 someday.

FordBeeblebrox,

White guy with a lisp, you almost can’t recognize him

FordBeeblebrox,

Oh they knew there were subs in the water…they just didn’t know where. The officers at least know we could turn their whole little armada into starter reefs at any time, the fact that we sent a boat scheduled to be scrapped later this year to surface is an extra fuck you flex that has to be intentional. We’re just now phasing out boats from the 80’s and they can’t keep a fleet afloat in a landlocked sea.

FordBeeblebrox,

I think it’s pretty funny actually. This version of Helena is on her last cruise before being decommissioned. Shit is so not new we’re surfacing a boat built in 1987 to fly the flag and remind them they can go from sailor to swimmers at any second while near our coast, and if an LA class is around there’s probably a newer shark nearby.

FordBeeblebrox,

They still use ski ramps and diesel subs, I’d want a tug nearby too anytime I left sight of port. Still better than being in the army though, probably.

FordBeeblebrox,

The fallout shelter at my jr high was turned into the cave all the theater nerds dwelled in. Now it probably a shooter shelter :(

FordBeeblebrox,

Aw hell naw! First Mr Rogers now Dolly? These monsters truly have no morals.

FordBeeblebrox,

Are they electing our Trumps or are we electing their Mussolini? Shitty people being shitty is not a US exclusive, but you’re right.

As Saint George says, garbage in, garbage out

FordBeeblebrox,

One of the most brilliant lines from TOS, I bet they all had a chuckle when it aired. Nichols should be in history books alongside Rosa Parks, aside from ‘the kiss’ her work with NASA was awesome.

FordBeeblebrox,

Trading space and lives for time is an established Russian tactic

FordBeeblebrox,

Metric yes please. Also for fucks sake use the 24 hour clock. Some of us learned it from the military but it’s just earth time and way easier than adding letters to a number

FordBeeblebrox,

The conversion is pretty much the only hurdle I ever hear about, but that’s easy enough. How many songs/films talk about “if I could rewind the last 12+12 hours”…it’s just a matter of making it fit in context people can understand when they know a day is 24 but are used to 12.

ISO and while we’re at it, the NATO phonetic alphabet for English speakers. “A as in apple B as in boy” means fuck all when you’re grasping for any word that starts with that letter, and if English isn’t your first language fuckin forget about it.

FordBeeblebrox,

Cause then we’d be thinking we’re monkeys on a spherical rock in a vacuum instead of calibrating clocks to a radioactive element to make sure everyone tunes in to wheel of fortune on time while this oblate spheroid tumbles around

Also, it’s hard enough getting people to equate Km and C with known quantities, Americans can’t handle base unit shifts like that

FordBeeblebrox,

We standardized an alphabet among all countries for clear communication.

Here is an example of it going wrong.

FordBeeblebrox,

Too easy. Plus we put in the 3/5 “compromise” so you can’t expect old white racists to learn proper math

FordBeeblebrox,

Last I checked, Buffalo wasn’t pumping water up the falls just to make it roll down through the turbines, but if you have legit sources showing otherwise I’d be most happy to see them comrade

FordBeeblebrox,

Bit of a difference between a weir/hydroelectric dam and a pump that would take all the water from the turbines and send it right back up to the canucks, using the turbine energy.

Then again, maybe it would spur a new round of waterfall barrel daredevils if they knew their keys would just be churned up top like a bowling ball at a “natural wonder”

FordBeeblebrox,

Fallout London is still on track so they seem alright with it.

FordBeeblebrox,

Cops keep cops and property safe. It’s the biggest gang in the country

FordBeeblebrox,

The Bat’leth knows no gender, only blood.

If anyone had a problem it might be the Ferengi watching (Fe)Males putting on clothes and doing business, but they’d just figure out a fine to levy and keep the latinum moving.

FordBeeblebrox,

I’ve loved every Besthesda game and preordered Fallout 76…learned from that mistake and never again. I’ll put games on my steam list and wait for a sale.

FordBeeblebrox,

It’s not bad, has some funny jokes and Mike playing multiple characters as usual. Won’t spoil it but the ending is pretty cool and it would be rad to see a season 2

FordBeeblebrox,

They should be firing every rocket they have into Russia to make room for the new pallets coming in, although the GOP and Hungary are fucking with that process. Every bomb that goes off inside their border is a soldier who doesn’t have to go downrange and a reminder that the citizens can’t ignore of how they’re breaking even with a former vassal. If every russkie south of Moscow is worried about random explosions in their town, public support is gonna turn quick despite the propaganda. Slava Ukraini

FordBeeblebrox,

I can see the crack in my visor just reading that

FordBeeblebrox,

Well we know the pattern buffer can hold a person indefinitely (SNW doc’s daughter) and they have bio filters that remove any bug changing the genome pattern you beamed down with…that’s all defensive, I’m sure the tech could be turned up to 11 but then you’re flying near Khan’s territory

FordBeeblebrox,

Well they believe a dude was murdered, then walked out of the grave so is anything else really too far?

FordBeeblebrox,

We didn’t need to invade any damn whole country, we have multiple special teams that train precisely for hunting and gathering. The govt of Iraq and the poppy fields of Afghanistan needed freedom though, so we went hot after the Saudis attacked us.

Murican capitalism war hooah!

FordBeeblebrox,

One could argue that the Florida Supreme Court is responsible for millions of Iraqi/Afghan deaths and untold damage to democracy and the climate by forcing that election the way people didn’t vote. W should have been a baseball manager, he was, as the Rs do, completely unqualified against an actual experienced person at the job but had the quips and genealogy.

Florida, republicans, consistently making everyone’s life worse. WHY DO PEOPLE STILL VOTE FOR THEM

FordBeeblebrox,

The Luna Wolves will respond about this slander of our primarch

FordBeeblebrox,

The last bullet point should be “undue stress and hardship having to enumerate all of this endless bullshit.”

FordBeeblebrox,

Bad Janet could say anything and I’d agree

FordBeeblebrox,

Keeping up the ridicule of their bullshit is a Sisyphean effort.

FordBeeblebrox,

How much does he weigh, and how sturdy is that flagpole? I’m just asking questions

FordBeeblebrox,

Well it would be impolite to say no. ACAB

FordBeeblebrox,

By the time this is all over every farmer in Ukraine will have a new tractor and Russia won’t have a navy that can go past sight of shore. Slava Ukraini

FordBeeblebrox,

Well, they learned it from the most organized people in the world.

FordBeeblebrox,

When the people known for racist law enforcement tell you to ease up a bit…how fucking far gone are you

FordBeeblebrox,

Good. Hail Satan and teach kids about all religions or none.

FordBeeblebrox,

Pike and crew are the best part of Discovery, SNW is miles better. Prodigy is so damn good and more Janeway! LD can feel like that but it’s all rapid fire Trek stuff, I rotate through the series’ as the bedtime show and I’ll rewatch an episode of LD and catch a TOS or VOY reference I missed the first time, it’s a Trek fan show that goes to 11 with the memes
