Let me state it as a parable: If the building was on fire and someone was blocking the fire exit, but I managed to escape by shattering a 2nd floor window, yes, I would be mad at the person blocking the exit.
And more so: This was, very much, a clear and present danger. As we are all experiencing now. None of what is happening now is a surprise. Yet those people still refused to help or lift a finger to prevent it.
Doesn't matter.
There was a clear and present danger that everyone with two brain cells to rub together was trying to prevent, and these people were actively standing in the way.
I’m a salt mine over this.
I like that expression.
People are dying, poor families with disabled children are losing healthcare, trans people are under federal attack, science and education is being gutted, and on and on
According to the people we're both salty at, that's apparently an acceptable price to pay to "teach the Dems a lesson". (That was one of the most common reasons they'd give last year, and yep, I'm still salty about that too).
But at least they saved Palestine ¯_(ツ)_/¯
We could have done that last November, but some people decided it was better to single-issue abstain / protest vote / spread FUD / otherwise get in the way. Yes, I'm still salty about that.
The cans cost "borrowed them from my dad" dollars each lol.
They definitely weren't supposed to stack, but the system didn't prohibit it. I found that out with some earlier $0.20 off per gallon coupons I had. That was the Speedway near my work, and she was still working there months later, so I guess she survived lol.
Exactly what I did :)
Car had a half-full 10 gallon tank. The limit was 25 gallons, so I came prepared with four, 5-gallon gas cans and filled those up.
1 is "Gladiator"
4 is "Black Swan"
9 is "Office Space"
10 is "Harry Potter" (which I've actually never seen, but I do recognize Delores Umbridge from other memes)

It wasn't a tight shirt when I bought it...which, yeah, should have been my first hint

Give one of your "skip" episodes a second chance every now and then. You might be surprised.

"Take Me Out to the Holosuite" didn't become my new favorite episode or anything, but I did enjoy it after years of skipping it because I got bored with the baseball plot the first time I saw it.
I also always skipped VOY: Initiations and had completely forgotten Aron Eisenberg was in that one until the last re-watch when I opted not to skip any episodes.
In a game that's all about decision-making aboard the U.S.S. 'Voyager,' of course players are going to be asked to tackle one of the most infamous decisions made in 'Star Trek.'
Last month, we were very excited to see the announcement of Star Trek: Voyager – Across the Unknown, a new survival game from Daedelic Entertainment and Gamexcite that tasks you with charting the U.S.S. Voyager‘s journey home from the Delta Quadrant as you repair the ship in the wake of the event that flung it 70,000 light-years across space in the first place, and make your own decisions from the captain’s chair about where to go, who to fight, and who’s on your crew.
And yes, that means you will be able to decide whether or not there is justice for Tuvix.
...
Star Trek Voyager – Across the Unknown still doesn’t have a release window, but aside from being available to wishlist on Steam for PC players, it’s now been confirmed that the game is also coming to Xbox Series X and S as well as PS5.
Edit: Me after seeing all the Robet Dalys in the comments:
Context: I always wondered what the mural in Quark's was. Have read through the first two books of Deep Space 9: Millennium, and the novel offers two different (non-canon) possibilities. Also, it's difficult to meme from TrekLit, but I'm trying here.
Personally, it looks more like a Tholian to me but I like the implications of the alternative.
Mild Spoiler
Gul Dukat procured it when he was in charge of Terok Nor. It was so large, the only place it would fit was Quark's Bar, so that's where it went. Dukat was proud of it, thinking it was a slain Tholian admiral. Rom laughs and later tells Quark it's actually a depiction of Tellarite genitalia and is used to denote pleasure houses in the red light districts of Tellar Prime. Quark doesn't know who is right, but he and Rom always salute the "Admiral" as a joke.

Edit 4: Color correction and trying to make it less dark. I also finally seem to have found the correct slider in GIMP to turn DS9 into a sitcom (or maybe a Mexican soap opera?)
