Nah. Then they'd just be embarrassed they had been pushing a book with such a woke lefty agenda. Some might even learn that they can throw away most of that commie stuff in the later parts of the book, and just keep the juicy bits they liked in the first half about how men are in charge, and slavery is okay so long as you follows some rules. Oh, except Revelations. That part rocks, let's keep that. In fact... Let's make it happen. That would be so sick.

Shit, I'd do that job for minimum wage, if only to see Musk fired.

Sure, but that quote calls it a "virus" but the headline says "fungus".

I get the hate for those movies, but I honestly enjoyed them all.

They are what got me to watch TOS, finally. Then I did a full watch through of the series. They were great for revitalizing the fan base and making new fans.

I honestly love having the movies as a different universe/timeline. Saves us from tone whiplash, like Shakespeare TNG Picard vs Rambo Movie Picard.

At the very least, there needs to be some serious audits of the power structures of Starfleet and the Federation. So many evil admirals...

That, or she should be named "Mary" instead, I guess.

I, for one, thought this was a reasonable take.

What else do people expect you to comment? Like...

Neat.

Or...

Thoughts and prayers for the driver and his family.

?

What discussion can a post like this garner except speculation? And to preface your speculation with an acknowledgement that the story has no real details... seems fair to me.

Which explains why it was standard procedure for presidents to put their money in a blind trust. And why Trump didn't.

The population of NYC is 8 million, and they had fewer than 1M votes for mayor? That, like, 12.5%.

Even if you limit it to just citizen population, I found that number to be 6-7 million. Thats still only a 14-16% voter turnout.

The fuck?

I had never heard that before, and that now my truth. It makes so much sense.

The previous conviction was overturned on a procedural issue, like a mistrial. He wasn't pardoned or found not guilty, so it isn't double jeopardy. It's just a "redo" to make sure another jury would still convict without the procedural issue.
