I've noticed a lot of people are the "sit back and watch your neighbors be executed and sent to camps" crowd.

Unfortunately there's also a lot in the "I would but not alone" crowd.

It's why left-wing organized groups get alphabetted at the drop of a hat.

Heck, I have about 10 phones in my own house, there's about 20-25 at my in-laws.

Me because I keep old gadgets

In-laws because they have 8 children, and instead of the trash they just toss old phones into a box for anyone who breaks the new one.

I haven't really been keeping up with nuclear news, so that's actually a surprise to me that so many reactors are in-progress!

I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the narrative of some is "nuclear is evil" instead of "China is beating us on energy, BUILD MORE TO BEAT THEM!" But oil lobbies really do have their claws into every facet of government... Quadruple down on fossil fuels and smear campaigns, money machine go brrr.

Don't feel bad, it took until "valley" for me to realize, and those movies were my jam as a child.

Pffffft

The Voth are pushovers, I can destroy one of their city ships with a Miranda Class.

Oh what's with the 15 other ships flying around the area? Don't mind them. Just my bros. Totally solo'd. Mhmm.

Man, what is it with Sci fi and having futuristic tech from Dino-descendants.

I'm not complaining, I want more.

no Democrat is likely to do that

Honestly this is what pisses me off.

When an opponent who literally wants you or yours dead hands you a gun, shoot them with it. Because if you don't shoot, they will.

Republicans have handed democrats so many tools over the years they could easily wield against Republicans.... But they don't.

They take the "high road."

The Moral High Road is Filled With Corpses.

Brotherly love didn't even last in my parents church while inside the building. They convinced a pastor to move his family across the country, and then when ONE PERSON got offended by a difference in interpretation, they managed to strong arm their church leaders into firing the pastor.

Fun fact! This is also how we know when certain asteroids smashed into the earth, because the impact deposits a layer of minerals and elements not found super common in the crust.

Also, sensing equipment that uses or detects radiation as part of its function has to be made of non-radioactive materials in order to not interfere. And since hairless apes started cracking atoms open, all steel is ever so slightly radioactive. They need special preparations to make steel without any isotopes present. This also means pre-1945 steel fetches a higher price in some instances.

That's the whole point of things like this.

Make it seem super scary, turn public opinion against anything nuclear.

Usually you see articles like this pop up whenever there are renewed discussions for nuclear power plants. Not sure if this is one of those, or just clickbait.

Okay this might sound like conspiracy theory bullshit.... But is there any major country preparing to construct nuclear power plants, or is there a looming decision about nuclear power over fossil fuels coming soon?

Because this is the exact kind of news article you see get pushed whenever someone starts making nuclear power seem like the viable option that it is.

Anything that makes it seem like it's seconds from ending all life on the planet as we know it.

Anything to demonize it.

Anything to turn public perception negative.

 

I am in the process of moving, and found my old collection of Star Trek cards. No idea when I actually got these, it was mid-late 90s, and I have the majority of the 120 cards I know about (as well as some bonus cards)

This is card 001. It comes in English, with 5 (01A-01E) extras in other languages.

They come in various flavors, hilighting important cast, crew, characters, ships, etc.

 
 

It can be from any series, and if you want to pick a favorite from each show go ahead.

Picture very much related.

 
 

Then again, with how much can be done casually by literally anyone who is on the ship, not just starfleet personnel, what even is privacy anymore in 2380?

 

I would actually love this.

Maybe not the upper pylons getting kawhooshed, but a parallel world episode or like.... Literally even a holodeck gone mad episode.

Obrien could take out some of his frustration as Cowen of the Genii.

 

Really, what do they expect? Mental Healthcare is more or less nonexistent everywhere he goes.

 

Since the 60s, baybeeeee!
