Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I've spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.

Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.

Just don't ask who what's in the pattern buffer.

  • Trump’s DOJ Wants to Deprive Trans People of the Right to Self-Defense

    Jump

  • I can't wait to hear my coworkers or family members defend this after I say "shall not be infringed" and "all gun control is an infringement" or "gun bans don't work"

    I've heard the same argument from all of them, for years, any time Biden or Obama "considered" something about firearms.

    I'm a big believer in the 2nd Ammendment, including the "in keeping a well-regulated militia" aspect that everyone seems to forget about. However, any time a well-regulated militia pops up that isn't a bunch of religious white raging racist homophobic bigots, the alphabet squads get involved for "national security" reasons. Or they label the group a terrorist group. Just ask the black Panthers. Or anyone accused of being "members of antifa"

    Arm yourselves, train with your firearms. Remember the 4 rules of firearm safety. The government you were taught would protect you is the very thing trying to eliminate you.

  • A reminder to not take online negativity too seriously

  • I don't enjoy side-scrollers.

    But I DO enjoy supporting people in the things they create.

    Who cares if it's not my cuppa. Who cares if there's 10,000 similar things out there? And who cares if it doesn't land on any "TOP TEN" lists?

    Is hollow knight my thing? Nope.

    But it's rad as hell.

  • Trump DOJ is looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns

    Jump

  • And this is why I keep telling my trans homies they need to arm themselves and offering to take them shooting away from gun nuts and Republicans.

    Armed minorities are harder to oppress.

  • Mother of boy, 15, held at gunpoint by US immigration agents files $1m claim

    Jump

  • Yeah it was meant as "the US has been doing bad things to non-white people but now that it's so open and bad, the other majority white countries can't just turn a blind eye like they do when we bomb the middle east"

    Well, now that things are cleared up, have a pleasant day! 😊

  • I didn't realize so many white people were being deported, arrested, or sent to concentration camps.

  • Can confirm, shipmate. My Swear Bible is sitting in my coffee table right now.

    Can you imagine trying to get through a med-cruise without it?

  • Mother of boy, 15, held at gunpoint by US immigration agents files $1m claim

    Jump

  • Sure, but now it's not really arguable for the "white countries".

    It's a lot harder for Canada to turn and look away than it was 20 years ago.

  • Vicious cycle

  • Me, staring at my alarm about to go off in 5 minutes after tossing and turning for an hour: "this is the single most comfortable spot in the universe and I am so sleepy now"

  • Air Canada union says flight attendants will continue strike, defy government

    Jump

  • If my employer tried to tell me I'm only getting paid when I'm actively using the equipment instead of the whole time I setting up and transferring materials, I'd have to get in line to set the place on fire

  • Air Canada union says flight attendants will continue strike, defy government

    Jump

  • If the government declares a strike illegal, or tries to in any way compel the employees to return to work, they are explicitly telling the workers that they are nothing more than indentured servants, barely more than slaves. You exist to make these people money, now sit down and shut up before we throw you in prison for upsetting your betters.

  • Fuck it I'm buying it now.

    Half life 2 was my first "I can't wait to get home and play" game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.

  • Fewer young people are meeting these 5 milestones typically associated with adulthood

    Jump

  • 1 it was too expensive to move out and honestly without the added income I provided my parents would have lost their house on multiple occasions

    2 I got one the fall after I graduated

    3 this one took awhile

    4 lol no. Never. Children are the worst. I should know, I used to be one.

  • Fewer young people are meeting these 5 milestones typically associated with adulthood

    Jump

  • The older people I know who vote Democrat complain all the time about how expensive everything is these days and nobody can afford anything.

    The bullshit "Nobody wants to work" narrative is absolutely pushed by conservatives.

    Jump

  • It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.

    Now that I have more stable employment it hasn't gone on sale.

    Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.

    I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.

    10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.

  • Anti-homeless architecture

    Jump

  • You know those metal benches with metal arches for "arm rests" a lot of cities installed about a decade ago?

    A lot of them use standard size bolts and Allen keys. No security, or maybe torx if anything.

    Also an adjustable crescent wrench and multi-size Allen wrench tool fit nicely inside a pocket.

    A cordless impact driver and associated bits fit in a small backpack as well.

    What do those tidbits of info have in common?

    Well that's up to the reader.

    TO BE CLEAR, in case anyone doesn't understand, I am advocating for people to go out and disassemble anti-homeless architecture as a fuck you to the people who put it there. Being homeless is never a choice (not counting extreme outliers). Life is already shitting on them, denying them even a bench to sleep on for the night is just evil.
