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.
Having ridden in Ye Olde Wagons before, this is actually what you should do.
Get out, unload whatever weight you can, and make the wagon as light as possible, then you try to get it out by unburying the wheels and putting something hard for them to roll on.
we had 2x10 boards (and a few small 2x4 chunks) in the wagon and shovels, as the route we were using was through cow pastures and corn fields.
USA resident here, honestly even if we flip every R seat to a D (and hopefully some Is and some new party letter further left than D?) I still say keep your distance, clearly we can’t be trusted not to go insane every 4 years.
Can’t even be relied on to feed it’s people.
The biggest fucking joke of an empire in human history.
Having a grimy, fingered little brother is always fun.
Look, he may be grimy, but kink shaming isn’t cool. He can be fingered whenever he feels like it.

Lmao, even
I ain’t buying that shit. I will happily buy two 3d printers, upgrade them, and print a giant coffee table sized version before I spend that much on such a small set.
“well you see, it’s perfectly reasonable that he murdered a surrendered soldier, as he was just following orders!”
The “just following orders” defense still going strong 80 years later.
I’m sure it’s going to be used a lot in the coming decades, assuming the governments actively involved in horrifying human rights abuses ever see any sort of reform…
I hadn’t heard about this before this morning.
Now I want to watch everything that was going to be presented.
You know you’re winning at life and on the right side of history when you threaten people’s families to prevent them from showing an indie movie.
Aliens have to figure out our vaginas from scratch.
Oh look, a convincing argument for murder!
It really reads like the homeowner was one of those “I hope someone breaks in so I can legally murder them” kinds of gun owners. maybe they no idea what they were even shooting at, but I’m willing to bet they looked out the window and thought “brown skin, must be gangs fox was right”
I will happily ignore people knocking on my door until they go away. Trying the door knob will certainly get my attention but just to yell at you, not enough to grab a gun.
I’m a big fan of the “turn all lights on, make as much noise as possible and yell to whoever is in your house you ‘have a gun and know how go use it so get the fuck out’” approach.
Nobody who is breaking in to steal stuff wants to kill you (probably) and knowing they have a chance of getting shot themselves from an occupant they didn’t expect is a huge motivator for them to get the fuck out.
If their motivation isn’t to steal, and is in fact to harm you, then you have lost nothing by doing this. They already expect you to be there and want to hurt you, so do what you have to.
I’m being cautious enough to not shoot my roommate who got home from their trip two days early, my friend who drunkenly stumbled in after his phone died at the pub, my neighbor who needs help but can’t articulate it, or a random stranger who mistakenly walked into the wrong house (this one has happened to me at least 10 times in my life, mostly when living in apartments).
If that ends up getting me shot at by randos there to kidnap me, so be it. I’m prepared to defend myself and my loved ones. The property they can have, but if anyone comes up the stairs they’re toast.
My point is there should never be a time when you jump out at someone and kill them simply because they are there.
Besides, one of the primary rules of firearm safety is “know your target and what’s behind it” and if you don’t know the person you’re shooting at isn’t there for benign purposes, you don’t know your target.
This is manslaughter at best but I’m willing to hear any argument for straight up murder.
It’s been very telling this week at work.
I live in a very red area and work in a majority red industry. I hear people talking shit about “the libs” all day. I hear tons of coworkers talking shit about anyone on government assistance because the “welfare queens just want free stuff with no work”
It seems that just under 3/4 of the people I work with were getting SNAP benefits.
A box has been set up in the break room so people can bring in food, and others can take what they need.
The shit talking has stopped, at least. No jokes about “welfare queens” anymore.
If I had the money and ability to trust strangers I would hire people to clean my house for me.
I love the loop of “feel bad for not cleaning - depressed - don’t clean - stare at floor - feel bad for not cleaning…”
On one hand, I have adhd and depression, and my parents definitely have at least depression. So I’m used to messes everywhere up to and including not seeing the floor for a week or more at a time.
On the other hand, I feel bad when someone gets in my car and I have to move one or two items off the seat.
“The fuck is you talkin about, I looked a buncha stuff up on my phone that’s research!”

Just a guess based on “covid” and “candles”, a ton of people negatively reviewed candles for not smelling good/right/at all, not realizing they had lost their sense of smell from covid at the time.
I know my spouse had the realization our cold was covid because we couldn’t smell the candles we had bought (and smelled) the week before.
go fuck a duck
Poor duck…
On one hand, I have a coworker who clearly angrily scraped his trump stickers off the tailgate, and on the other, I have a coworker who straight up held a nazi salute with an audible “heil” when he started talking about his favorite band, Rammstein.
Now I don’t know anything about Rammstein and their political views in general, but I’ve known a few Germans in my time and they all held very strong (negative) views on the nazi regime.
Most coworkers have stopped talking about politics and such in general during breaks though.
Depends on how many you eat…
Well a wave turbulence hit it.
