Thank you for the high quality sources. Cleveland Clinic has been recommended to me multiple times by health care providers.

I didn't know this til recently but apparently she's good friends with Cirroc Lofton!

Oh I didn't even notice haha. I always have to look it up because I try to spell it "Tawney Newsom".

Also, The Last Man on Earth was underrated and I'm sad that it got cancelled! On a cliffhanger no less.

I bet Tawny Newsome would be thrilled to hear you say that honestly. She said she wanted to give Captain Sisko and Jake a proper send off and it sounds like she accomplished that!

It's the exposure, which leads to more ad revenue (in theory, without adblockers). YouTube creators live or die based on the algorithm and two of the main things the algorithm looks at is frequency of posting and engagement. Since Google needs metrics to give advertisers some idea of revenue potential, someone liking your video isn't nearly as valuable to the algorithm as someone liking, commenting and subscribing (if not already subscribed obvi). As an example, ElectroBOOM just started making shorts of all his old content because he's in the middle of a big house move and doesnt have time to make regular content which he noticed led the algo to stop recommending his content as much. But as far as just making a junk account and liking every video Google has systems in place to ignore "stale" accounts that don't actually watch the videos. Ultimately what they want is viewers since eyeballs equals ads equals revenue and everything else is just a way of predicting future views.

It looks like the article was updated so I have no clue where the statement came from anymore.

edit Am I on drugs or did the article get updated? The section about charges is completely gone so maybe the below statement isn't true.

Look I'm as anti-ICE as the rest of you, but did anyone read the charges? OP conveniently left out of their summary that these workers were arrested and deported as part of a child sexual exploitation material bust.

Something that I think helps it stand out is that it doesn't rely nearly as much on "marvel style" humor. There are some funny moments but they're more character driven you know? Like when K-2 slaps Cassian to sell the idea to the Imperials that K-2 is in charge.

I've seen that episode exactly twice and I don't think I'd make it through a third watch, it's SO sad.

As far as TNG goes, I also find "The Offspring" to be really sad. Data's speech about downloading her memories into his neural net gets me every time.

Isn't the canon that they have two of all their, uhh, essential body parts?

 

Sorry Wash! Also, this was the crossover I didn't know I needed.

 

Inspired by a comment I saw earlier calling it the "Prime Suggestion".
