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.

  • I love seeing the “FRENCH GOVERNMENT COLLAPSES” headlines.

    Like… A governmental collapse and this gestures broadly at France are two VERY different things.

    And if I’m being honest, when I first saw the headline I wondered if they floated raising the retirement age again and got rioted into a burned down parliament.

    France will be okay, they have protocols for this sort of thing.

    … Right? I don’t know nearly as much about the current French government as I do pre-napoleonic France. Am dum American.












  • In the current world, we don’t care about what you should and shouldn’t do to protect yourself, but only about what appears to be proper

    We can’t actually DO anything, because they haven’t officially declared an open war, and defending yourself against attacks just wouldn’t be proper

    Now please go quietly protest away from anyone that considers it an inconvenience. It’s what’s proper, you know.

    Note: I am from the US and when I say “we” I mean the collective peoples of earth, not to indicate I am from the UK.



  • Damn, that’s the same bass-ackwards logic that record companies use to say piracy makes them lose money.

    Spoiler alert: the majority of people pirating your stuff would not have otherwise purchased it. You have lost nothing.

    Similarly, the majority of people using gamepass to play the game would absolutely not have bought the game, especially since it’s the same game as last time, with new names and skins.

    For instance: the last call of duty game I bought was MW3. I only played black ops 2 when someone got two copies for their birthday and gave one to me I only remember playing for the zombies. I have played a total of less than 30 minutes, from startup screen to shutdown, of all the call of duties since then. Absolutely no chance in hell I’d buy another one. But I’m sure Microsoft would have included me trying it out as a potential lost sale of every one of them.
