Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
I learned to sew in middle school.
When I enlisted in the navy, I was handed a sewing kit and told I better learn how to use it because uniform repairs were my responsibility.
Still I hear grown men mocking any male why knows or wants to learn a basic skill.
Companies sure so have a lot of “glitches” and “technical difficulties” when they’re introducing controversial features that forces it on a group of people, only to be nearly immediately removed with all kinds of excuses… And then the feature is forced for everyone within a few months.
Almost like it’s NOT unintentional, they’re NOT experiencing technical difficulties, and they’re actually just testing the waters before diving in, with neatly 0 intent to pull back unless the consumers put upenoigh of a fuss the company execs get scared.
As I like to say, “The moral high road is filled with corpses”
At least you all can get your family to use it.
I can’t even get my spouse to use it unless she thinks what we are talking about might be illegal where we are (it usually isn’t)
I’ve tried convincing family to use it, but all that happens is I just never hear from them until I see them in person or they call me.
They don’t even feel the need to back up their Amazon Kindle collection before they get cutoff from it… Thousands of dollars wasted if they ever lose access to the account.
Calling out reposts obsessively is weird to me.There’s more people who have not seen something than who have seen it, at least on the internet. I think most people have seen the moon…
But if I ever have a problem where the vast majority of the posts I see are reposts, I’ll simply block the channel for awhile. It costs me nothing, and takes less effort than typing out a comment complaining in every repost.
It’s the “STOP LIKING WHAT I DON’T LIKE” meme, come to life. And I’d rather let people have their fun. Doesn’t cost me, nor anyone else, a thing.
Weird, I just had a bunch of mls tell me just the other day that a comment I made was strawmanning a hypothetical tankie telling me I’m wrong.
And here we see yet another ml strawmanning.
Super Weird.
All I see is a bunch of people saying this is dystopia nightmare shit, and so far the only person I’ve seen do anything other than call it what it is is the ml comparing this to China.
Surveillance states are bad anywhere, you won’t get many people arguing that city wide government facial recognition is a good thing.
I love when people say they feel dumb because they didn’t know something, because then I get to share xkcd with them, too.
Lmao this guy thinks hard work is what makes people rich instead of massive amounts of exploitation in an inherently exploitative economic system…
Old people and overreacting to normal things because new ideas are scary and confusing
Name a more iconic duo
It’s a piece of media that’s critical of a fascist regime, and the person who says it’s fake is a .ml
if they ever answer, it’ll be dismissive about how all western media is biased against china/nk/Russia. That’s as close to an explanation of “why it’s fake” as you’ll get.
You should always be critical of any media that doesn’t have a concrete source though. I don’t personally know anything about radiofreeasia, so fuck if I know how reliable they are to begin with.
Oooh, nice interrobang.
My parents have between 1,000 and 3,000 books… Even they aren’t sure.
Last time they were neatly arranged I was a child.
Right now they have 3 floor-to-ceiling bookshelves stacked as densely as possible, 3 books deep, with as many stacked In and laying on top as can fit Ina rectangle 10ft tall, 4ft wide, and 18ish inches deep.
Plus a handful of waist high shelves, multiple moving boxes filled up that haven’t been emptied since they moved in2017 and a ton scattered all over the house…
They have more fantasy/Sci fi books than every library in a 50 mile radius combined.
I still have less than 30 books to my name since most of mine are digital, but I’ve been going to half price books looking to get physical copies of everything.
They barely watch dvds anymore since they’re spending like 100/mo on various streaming subs.
They’ve had a book in hand for as long as I can remember, nowadays it’s a Kindle but their disorganization has been present as long as I can remember, too.
Last year I watched their dog while they were out of town, and I reorganized their dvd collection in alphabetical order, keeping the various series together.
In less than 6 months it was essentially back to complete chaos. And in that time,according to them, they barely watched any dvds, they just looked through the shelves a bunch to figure out what they have.Why that requires them to pull movies out and out them back in a different spot, I’m not sure.
When I was a child, I once knocked every book off every shelf in the house.
Because I had 6 books in alphabetical order on my little shelf in my room. My mother kept rearranging them in as close a rainbow distribution as possible… I asked her to stop many times, but ultimately decided if you’re going to mess up my shelf, I will mess up yours.
Surprisingly this tactic worked, and they didn’t make me clean up the books by myself, they did most of it.
Their idea of “organizing” the books is “well most of the books in that series are close to each other, but a bunch of other random ones are mixed in, and entire genres have been rearranged many times so who knows what books we even actually have”
They have a similar way of organizing dvds. It’s infuriating.
Damn, if you keep stuffing words into their mouth, it’ll probably suffocate them.
surely they’ll follow up with investments into US-produced solar equipment to boost the economy and bring prices down to competitive levels, right?
… Right?
I see their junk at every thrift store and flea market in Ohio.
I legitimately thought they went out of business.
I was going to mention how “first world problems” this is, but then noticed it’s in mildly infuriating.
Same thing, basically.
I once dropped a water bottle out of my backpack, and couldn’t find it when I retraced my hike, but I did start noticing tons of trash everywhere.
So I started keeping a trash bag in my backpack, and filling a small bag every time I hike.
I may not have found my bottle, but I’ll make sure I clean up more than I left every time I’m out.
It’s the balcony bailout party overlooking the occupy Wallstreet tents, just slightly better at hiding the contempt.
