What even is the “Deep State” at this point?

I see military bros wear shirts that incorrectly quote Ronald Regan, “Freedom is a fragile thing and it’s never more than one generation away from extinction.” That’s from a speech on socialized medicine (arguing against it). I doubt they understand that.

Wonder if I can count on them to stand up and project my right to go bankrupt for my health? What do you mean you don’t know who Regan is? 😱 /s

Did someone just watch Blue Valentine?

Just so he can call us losers if we end up dead? No thanks.

That must be embarrassing… if Florida didn’t already have a social stigma these days, it should now.

So in times of pregnancy complications, can we call the police and list them as the murderer for the seemingly preventable death of the mother?

I want these Christian-Right folk to name five things wrong with America and quote the relevant passage in any version (legitimate version) of the Bible that says it is wrong.

Then I want to see those same people follow the teachings listed in the Bible. I doubt they could do it.

He is smart enough to understand what he said was bad but dumb enough to not realize that applies to himself.

You can’t gaslight everyone whenever your own words get used against you. Eventually you make your own life seem like a hoax.

It is made by Master Replicas. Seems it was only available for pre-order. The link I had from TrekMovie.com is no longer valid. And there are no results for it on their website.

I’m laughing at this since we are mixing Prime Timeline Kirk with Kelvin Timeline Kirk.

Okay, I actually had to explain something to my grandma: that Dax wasn’t trans, it’s a symbiont species.

@hopesdead@startrek.website avatar

They thought the character being called “Old Man” by Sisko meant there was a sex change. Well sure, but not exactly.

hopesdead,
@hopesdead@startrek.website avatar

Which is why I had to explain the symbiont. Normally I would have just said no, it’s confusing and moved on.

I used to have a co-worker that was a hardcore supporter. Donated to her campaign. And of course they got all their news from RT. I stopped listening the second they told me they actively watch propaganda media designed for Russians.

Oh so she has identified themselves as being a part of the losing side in a civil war. Is their pronoun: loser?

In case you didn’t know, he has been a guest on Greg Gutfeld’s talk show, were he thinks he is funny discussing the same stupid subjects he would discuss on any other Fox News show.

EDIT: Of course I didn’t watch the show. I am just aware he was a guest. On top of that, I assume every guest is picked because they have something bad to say about the Democratic Party.

Sadly mine is a Republican that thrives on being hated as far as I know.

If you want to yell at someone who shouldn’t be a called a “doctor” then do it to Phill McGraw. That man actively hurts the people that go on his stupid fucking talk show. And yes, the drama series Bull is based on his life.

Do I Need to Watch Discovery To Enjoy SNW?

Hi all! Long time Star Trek fan here with my first post. I’m gonna start out by saying that I promise I’m not a hater of Discovery at all. It just has done nothing for me and from what I read, has not made any changes that would have solved my personal issues with it. I’m fine with others liking it and honestly wish that I...

There is backstory established in DIS season 2 that carry-over into SNW.

I fucking hate Blanco. I live in the county he is in. When the pandemic hit in 2020, he openly reported to the public that he would not enforce the health orders the county was issuing. On top of that he had many, many of his deputies die in the prison system due to COVID, plus the jail system in the county has been criticized for issues under his watch. Maybe worst of all, he was a member of Oath Keepers.

I fucking hate this dude. To make the matters worse again, back in March, the Riverside County Supervisors voted against separating the Sheriff’s Department from the Corner’s office. Apparently there have been a number of unexplained(?) deaths in the jail system that the department has not investigated after receiving complaints from families.

He is one of the worst people in elected office in Riverside County. Somehow people keep voting for him.

The theater itself was like 500 capacity but there was a lot less. Everyone was cool.

Me at age six, at Star Trek: The Experience (startrek.website)

Here is me at Star Trek: The Experience in Las Vegas, Nevada at the Hilton. This was 1997 (spring or summer). I got to go on The Klingon Encounter (which may have been the only ride-type attraction at the time). The line to enter was lined with status of Borg (First Contact had just come out the previous November)....

The Sci-Fi World Museum in Santa Monica, was supposed to open yesterday. Short story, major management shakeup and issues with the city have indefinitely delayed the opening.

They were going to have a Trek exhibit that included a recreated Enterprise-D bridge (I believe included some parts from Vegas) and the construction was overseen by people who worked on the show. Bummed that my ticket was cancelled. Maybe someday I’ll get to go to this museum.

Don’t you mean happy? lol, assuming they die in battle.

Okay, good fucking luck with that. You can’t deport natural-born citizens. What a fucking dumb fuck.

hopesdead,
@hopesdead@startrek.website avatar

I said natural-born, not immigrants. This is stated by the 14th Amendment. If you are born in the U.S., legally Feds can’t deport you.

Another way that Christian’s Nationalist are similar to Islamist terror groups: they preach a false interpretation of established religious doctrine. I doubt a major of these so called “Christians” practice half the shit listed in whatever version of the Bible they might cite or even read it.

Got a “All Good Things…” tattoo for my birthday. (startrek.website)

My birthday was last week (May 17). Decided to get my first tattoo, which I wanted to be Trek related. As a kid my family had a VHS tape with a recording of “All Good Things…” (and for unknown reasons, “Caretaker”). So I have seen the episode a dozen times. It is my favorite episode of the franchise. The image I’m...

I didn’t say anything but one of the sketches shown to me had shading and I realized that was just dirt the artist saw in the photo they took.

Well Star Trek is something I am passionate about and it holds a place in my childhood.

You know this is fucked up when a person who would be normally affected by redistricting doesn’t want to stop it from happening.
