Starfleet Academy is off to a solid and promising start and it has an inspiring message that's completely incompatible with subscribing to Paramount Plus.

Thrusters to maximum.

I don't know why anybody is still subscribed to Paramount Plus when all the other networks are showing a special extended edition of Deep Space Nine's Past Tense with previously unseen extra footage for free.

In a hurry, gonna just sing this instead of the entire 12 Days of Christmas.

Pitch: Matt Frewer launches a mattress company that promises especially roomy sleep furniture, Max Bedroom

been wanting to check this out for YEARS

Great pâté, but I'm gonna have to motor if I wanna be ready for that funeral.

What do you call a bounty hunter with a thing for bubble tea?

Be someone who is remembered like Alice Wong is being remembered, that's the goal.

Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Day to all who celebrate. Be sure to let all your screams out and then disappear.

I am so sick of war metaphors in partisan politics. Drastic measures of last resort shouldn't be "the nuclear option." We're in this ship together: I want to hear a senator threaten to eject the warp core.

"ChatGPT, you are a senate aide designing an illustration for my floor presentation in which I will try to convince constituents that they are best served when I vote against their interest."

Or Rodney Taylor, a disabled double amputee who’s been in America since he was two years old. He was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE grabbed him His health is declining, they won’t let him get his legs and they’ve placed him in solitary www.disabledginger.com/p/help-rodne...

I'm contemplating launching a satirical podcast with a variety show format that critically examines and dismantles the aesthetic superstructure of MAGAism. Picture a weekly podcast in which each episode takes on a different facet of our current hellscape. (1/5)

Open yourself to the healing power of AntiASMR

Dear Disney, If you're looking for a sales pitch, have you considered, "Tron: Ares has the best approval ratings!"?

I love this so much

I'm attending No Kings's event, “NO KINGS SE Portland” - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

More of this, please. hillsboroherald.com/ice-shows-up...

Anybody in Portland know where I can get a Klingon costume and makeup so I can go downtown and tell some ICE petaQs that they have no honor?

This. These episodes are difficult but essential viewing these days.

Going to share links to recent coverage of ICE nightmare time in Chicago. It is REALLY BAD because the goons running the country hate this city a lot. Fuck em. Anyway, if you can, read about what they did to folks in South Shore = a metric fuckton of evil shit blockclubchicago.org/2025/10/02/s...

Pitch: This summer, philosophy goes full throttle, as Chris Hemsworth and Idris Elba star as buddy cops Ted "No Mercy" Adorno and Max "Maximum Force" Horkheimer, buddy cops dismantling mass culture one explosion at a time in The Culture Industry: Condition Critical.

Wait... Unlike the previous Ferengi we had met with gibberish names, Deep Space Nine introduced us to Quark, Rom, and Nog, three words that would be somewhat obscure but recognizable to English-speaking audiences. Were their names meant to help those audiences relate to these aliens more familiarly?

this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

oh no

YOU CAN'T COMPLY YOUR WAY OUT OF FASCISM

Did you know that in the Star Trek Universe a fish ladder is called a turbot lift?

Pitch: Ethan Hawke stars as a naive AI on their first day of having their weighting parameters adjusted by software engineer Denzel Washington whose motives may not be what they appear. Training Data.

When John Fogerty buys a standard plane ticket, does he say "Put me in coach / I'm ready to pay"?

Is it weird that sometimes I think about organizing a fan letter writing campaign to petition Paramount + to produce a Star Trek miniseries called, "Star Trek: Chief Argyle"?

"Hello, my name is Ellen Ripley..."

Turns out I really should have taken necropolitics more seriously in grad school. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/u...

RIP George Wendt.

Crossing my fingers that this doesn't mean Elmo will be occasionally pausing counting lessons to suggest that kids binge a few episodes of Three Body Problem if they're bored.

I propose that any prompt that causes an AI system to break down should be properly called "The Kirk Prompt"

Genuinely saddened that "The Accountant 2" doesn't have a title with a colon followed by "Accrual Intentions"

The "Some of them try to rhyme but they can't rhyme like this" bridge is, in fact, the only part of Kris Kross's "Jump (1992)" that does not rhyme. Discuss.

The Princess Brie

Gotta admit I'm worried about this spreading idea that the telltale sign of AI generated text is the em-dash because -- and I mean this sincerely -- I've got decades of emails to prove that the em-dash is my go to punctuation.

Happy April Sincerity Day.

I officially request that the neurotransmitter responsible for fight-or-flight be renamed from norepinephrine to nope-amine.
