Once dead internet finishes manifesting, it’ll be simply bots shilling & scamming themselves. The data centers will cease to feed the greedy pigs and will be left for the rats. However, the product will have no time to rejoice for we will already have become addicted to the next big thing.

“Thugs” isn’t the right word.

Terrorists. Fascistic Lackeys. Brutalizers.

I have plenty of synonymous for these faceless fuckfaced assholes.

Exactly. My friend brought it over for me to put together (not an excuse).

Next time I will yell at him about buying wasteful products. A conclusion I came to on my own and goes over well when lectured to friends bearing gifts.

“According to officials; the residence was completely drenched in ooey-gooey sticky-blood-bits due to the homeowner’s recent satanic blood orgy. No further investigation will be conducted, as police chief “Brad The Impaler” has concluded that none is required.”

Oi, I’m but a simple socialist who once lived in a commune, residing in the world’s newest fascistic regime! A few of us Yankees still read. I personally prefer to watch the beebs so I can keep up with current trends such as Cockney rhyming slang.

I’m sure they both own plenty of baby oil. Too bad we are the ones getting dry-fucked.

Mayonnaise, probably… would work for most Europeans.

For the Western hemisphere, hollandaise or Thousand Island. (Keep in mind, ketchup won’t work well with the olives.)

Asia, you’re gonna want a few extra things to build it up. Japan got it right with Umami, baby.

Tribbles and barn, say ye?

Here I am on my someteenth rewatchin’ of fuckin’ Deadwood, scrollin’ through my Lemmy feed as the credits roll at the end of S02E08 & I this limp ginger-dick appears on my screen.

Welcome to fuckin’ Lemmy. Can be combative!

Vaguely spoiling & not pivotal to plot, however I will amend because spoilers are bad.

I didn’t realize the car bit was separate, I assumed it was the difference between stand your ground and castle doctrine.

Under this philosophy; citizens residing within states that have the castle doctrine would legally be protected from vampires while in their motor vehicles?

My complaints are simple things, like:

“why was there >!a human sized drainage tunnel!< connecting to >!an incredibly secure facility!<?”.

&

“why use >!songs!< in the >!soundtrack!< that have to be >!censored!<?”

Actually, my friend bought it.

‘Discovery’… the main contribution from that distraction was giving us Harry “Dwight” Mudd & ‘Strange New Worlds’.

As soon as we got a chance to evacuate that starship, we took it; and joined up with a better crew.

You’re definitely correct about the writing on TOS. To expand upon your point - look at the widescreen monitors and flip phone communicators, the earpiece devices and other things that they use. Those didn’t even exist yet, not really. I’m sure in some ways these things informed the development of the real-life equivalents, however ~ you can’t deny the writers did a lot of things as realistically as possible (given the setting). I can’t remember ever seeing fire in the vacuum of space in TOS. However, on ‘Discovery’ we had plenty of whacky-not-in-a-fun-way scenarios.

Lillian in space. Thanks for the chuckle.

I liked LD okay, but the bleeped cursing bothers me. Either fucking cuss or frickin’ don’t. It happens too much to not be distracting for me. The Orville felt like classic Trek, which is my understanding was on purpose. Seth was a real member of Starfleet, albeit minor.

What happens on Risa stays on Risa.

Once they reach a certain age ~ the Gorn slow W A A A Y down. They begin wearing colorful tunics and can be easily subdued with a primitive blunderbuss.

Hemmer prequel series about a wacky crew featuring the various species of Andorians living together on an accidental starship voyage.

Think “Real World”+“Road Rules” but Trek.

It’s not animated and filmed in the traditional style of previously mentioned shows.

After the pilot episode, the entire premise is dropped. It was a prototype holoprogram. The user?

Harry T. Mudd.

It is now a show about Mudd and his wacky adventures, eventually leading up to his encounters with Pike and Kirk.

If it tells you anything about me, my favorite TOS episode has - and always shall be; “Arena”.

I love the more episodic format of Strange New Worlds. I love Pike. I love the old-school aesthetic of the sets. I love the entire cast (shout out to my homie Hemmer. RIP). I just freakin’ love the entire show. It’s exactly what new Trek should be.

However, I have to admit the new Gorn kind of bummed me out. I prefer the goofy-badass-Gorn over the scary-quick-incubatin’-Gorn.

There’s a kind of person that thrives in the parking lots of Walmarts and stripmalls in shitberg towns, and they thrive on social media, too.

Well put. I’m old school Tripod days (if anyone remembers what that was). I’ve seen social media go from “A/S/L?” to “like & subscribe” and everything in between. It was never that clean, and the lot lizards were always lurking.
