  • I agree with you in principle, but they won't do it and you're likely going to end up struggling. There are other payment plan options that I encourage you to research before you end up in more debt which you can't offload. It's fucked up, I know. And I'm sorry you're having to decide between a payment or shelter. Obviously shelter comes first. But there might be other options to allow you to have both.

  • It always takes way longer to think about what to type than to type it out. So any benefits from speedier typing don't speed up the ultimate road block: our brains.

  • My dog fits the bill a bit.

  • That first season on Trek, 'Sins of the Father' was the episode. It was a Worf story. Worf goes back to his homeworld for the first time and has this whole thing about his honor. I was down on the set and I'm digging it: 'It was a big Klingon show, this is kind of cool.' There's Michael Dorn and he has this line in a scene where he discovers one of the other Klingons has betrayed them. The line is, 'Someone should feed this Ha'dibah to the dogs!'... and Michael immediately goes, 'You know what? It's a great script but then somebody writes you a line of dialogue like that and the whole thing is just so stupid.'

    Michael Dorn obviously wasn't a fan of the line, but he's stated many times over the years he is a big lover of Worf. Fortunately, he remained (mostly) professional during the filming of the episode. Ronald D. Moore didn't even scare him away from playing a Klingon, even if the line was terrible.

    There's more to it but that's the gist. The writer continued to write and shined despite this one off "gaff".

  • I'm afraid the world will end and I'll be a dick without my SSRIs or coffee

  • Insert robo-eye since the left eye is not perfect 20/20

  • I have no idea why my upload got pixelated like that lol sorry for your eyes.

  • I love how Odo and Quark hook up in the next episode. Enemies to lovers. Classic.

  • The cool thing about TNG is this literally could have been an episode.

  • If they keep stacking em, I'll keep packin, em.

  • Why is it always the church? That's rhetorical by the way. Fuck organized religion that makes everyone bend the knee.

  • The only thing I want AI (on my phone) to do is limit my notifications and make calendar events for me. I don't want to ask questions. I don't want to start conversations.

    I want to open my phone and have 1 summary notification of things I received and things to do. I want the spammy ones to just be auto filtered because I never click on them.

    I'd also love if I could choose when to manage all of these notifications with my AI assistant. The only back and forth I'd like is around scheduling if I need to make changes.

  • For sure. I want a standalone series. Of the new shows, Lower Decks or Strange New Worlds got us closest to that. But they both feel like an homage to their counterparts (TNG and TOS respectively). I would appreciate a show like DS9 that takes a sort of "day in the life" appeal towards somewhere simple. They made a star base the entire show. I imagine they could take a newly colonized or colonizing planet and make a show about that. New plants, animals, dangers, phenomena, etc. I'm sure each planet could have plenty of stories to tell and subcultures to explore.
