The enshitification of the promenade.

Task failed successfully.

I respect the meme changed her hair style appropriately to canon.

Noted liar lies. News at 11.

“We’re going to have some fun too.” GET IT K-DOG.

Boy did they fix him in Prodigy.

For an Internet discussion, I really appreciate your open and honest exchange. Good day fellow Internet person.

Ok next question, because I think I interpreted the term differently than you did.

There are two types of term limits right? Quantity of terms, and length of terms.

Status quo: Q - one term, L - for life.

Wouldn’t limiting the length but not the quantity maintain the incentive for impartiality? So there is no concept of a second term?

I’m not trolling btw, I’m looking for an honest airing of the Q.

ELI5, How does no term limits allow for impartiality?

Couldn’t agree more brother. The concept of Riker’s Beard is well known in TV - although it is hard to implement in the age of streaming. But I want new and untried.

LD really broke the mold and is fantastic. DISCO’s issue is that it wasn’t different enough.

I want Horror in the ST universe. I want James Bond in ST (Section 31?). I want How I Met Your Mother in ST. I want Law and Order in ST. I want MASH in ST. I want Saved By The Bell in ST(Academy?) I want The Hurt Locker in ST. I want The Notebook in ST. That’s how the franchise moves on, not retreading old ground.

I’m doing a DISCO rewatch right now. It is much better on a second run than I remember it being when it first came out.

I guess I’m bi now???

That book is great.

She will never be that “old.” She has the heart, soul, and energy of a 30 year old.

This is a top tier Trek meme.

Now do the other series.

I’m a similarly aged and gendered human.

There is research out there somewhere that confirms the commenter’s memory. I can’t find it on a whim unfortunately, I’ll post if I can find it. From what I recall from the research (I’m sure I’m butchering it): In the 80s and 90s trans people were a lot more accepted. At some point when certain monied bigots saw the writing on the wall that they were losing the fight of gay and lesbian hate they started a campaign to vilify trans people.

Yes there were always assholes and prejudice, but it’s only in the past 20 years that trans hate became a calling card of demagogues. It really was more accepted in the 90s.

In no way do I want to minimize the awful way trans people are treated, regardless of age. I’m just trying to remember some research I read once.

PLOT TWIST: I have IBD. (really)

There are two types of men, men that like pegging and men that haven’t tried it yet.

Ok I. The interest of an honest conversation these are my thoughts:

• I haven’t seen any reports of beatings during the arrests. Can you send me something if you saw that? Were there brutalizations taking place? If so, you’re absolutely right.
• I have no problem with the protest, but I do think there is a line between protest and vandalism/rioting. I went to the NYC MeToo marches and a protest in DC against the US in Iraq when I was younger, causing material damage is just not what you do. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/live-blog/campus-protests-live-updates-students-occupy-columbia-university-rcna149926
• Looking at the pictures of the baracades and furniture, doesn’t Columbia have an obligation to disperse a situation that is becoming dangerous? Isn’t that one of the police’s jobs?
• I haven’t been in a situation like that, but I’m pretty sure the police officer in that situation can’t tell the difference between a Nazi and not a Nazi. And they might not self identify. I’m guessing things are getting heated. I read somewhere (sorry I don’t have a source on this either) that the students were let off with a misdemeanor of trespassing, and the identified external agitators were charged with more. Then the students freely went back to protesting. I’m going to reiterate, b.c. this is the internet, I would be protesting Israel too if I were a bit younger. My issue is with the way the story was reported.

I live nearby, I walked by.

I think (I don’t know for sure) that the students were peaceful, it looks like it got co-opted by a few loud neo-nazis who were being assholes.

My thing is the original article was pretty off.
