Give us full 20+ episode seasons, cowards! I want bottle episodes, slice of life stories, maybe a few two-parters here and there. Star Trek was born as an episodic network tv show meant to run from fall to summer. Let it breathe.

Yeah, it depends on the criteria. The Nazis were only around for a few years, whereas the British did their thing for centuries. The Nazis were a rookie prodigy who retired after a single red-hot season, the British were a multi-season MVP with way more points on the board.

Without flaws, we would all have achieved nirvana, and would be freed from the cycle of birth and rebirth. There would be no people and no society, because we would no longer be chained to the flawed and impermanent material world. Simple as.

He and Bashir should have hooked up at least once.

Bahaha, in the mirror universe, Elon Musk died a pauper while trying to prevent the eugenics wars.

It rules that the Mirror Universe guy was a Musk fan. Possibly not an intentional dig, but it's pitch-perfect in retrospect. I love Lorca. What a fun character.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not sure you aren't a Nazi, either.

[–] EnsignRedshirt@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (4 children)

But yeah, the Hitler and slavery apologia is also really bad and you should probably stop that if you're not a Nazi.

Some may consider these statements to be (insert trendy prefix, here) phobic, but they are also factual

The first is subjective, the second is a counterfactual. By definition, neither can be factual statements.

Being fired on the spot hardly ever happens. Usually the problem is that employers demand additional work for no increase in pay or better working conditions while maintaining a toxic or outright dangerous work environment because they know most people won't quit or even complain. That goes double for immigrants who are either undocumented, and have little recourse, or need their job to maintain their visa. Being fired on the spot sounds sort of quaint compared to what we usually see happening in American workplaces.

“Online” needs to be broken down into “dating app” and “met playing World of Warcraft”

I’m no expert, but this looks pretty cut and dried.
