Certain bodies must not repeat themselves in the dawn. Men do not fight for tons of steel. This, sir, is my resignation. The desperate die expensively today.

God Peter David was such a Kind Of Guy (complimentary in this case.) You want to know what people talking Star Trek on GeoCities and Angelfire websites in the mid-90s was like it sounded like this
Do you agree with this Star Trek assessment?

We had September 11 and then we didn’t have another date for like, 20 years. Then we had January 6. Then suddenly soon after that October 7. The rate at which we develop new dates is accelerating

The NBA is formally stepping into the prediction markets ecosystem. The league announced agreements Monday morning with Kalshi and Polymarket that will allow the companies to use official league data and intellectual property and give the league control over what trades the companies are allowed to offer. nyti.ms/4smgsfG

Walter Koenig made Star Trek history w/his voice cameo in the 2023 series finale of "Picard." He didn't appear as Pavel Chekov; but rather President Anton Chekov, leader of the United Federation of Planets; the son of his original character. The name was a tribute to Anton Yelchin, who'd died in 2016 and had played Chekov in the JJ Abrams films. This made Walter the last of the original cast to appear in a Star Trek series.

Buchanan, certainly
TMZ: “Are we going to have a female president first or a g*y president?” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY): “Well, we don’t know if we’ve already had a g*y president. I think there’s chances maybe we have but I don’t know.”

This argument is very funny. Why would Christ make humans with mental illness at all? Do you see how self-defeating your idiot theology is?
Christ literally made humans. Why would he put the wrong soul in a body? It’s mental illness.

Oh! You said RYAN GOSLING, like the ACTOR 😅 I thought you were talking about my favorite sandwich, the rye-and-gosling. It's a cooked baby goose between two slices of rye bread.

At this point I’m convinced Shatner will outlive me
Walter Koenig, dead at 90. Is Shatner the last Trek TOS cast member standing? Or is that Sulu?

Everyones got a take but I think we are ignoring the real villain in this story: adults who want birthday weekends.
My friend wants to plan a couples, no-kids weekend getaway, splitting the cost of a large AirBNB, in January for her 30th birthday. I really do not love this idea (husband is mortified), neither to spend the money nor to get someone to take the toddler for 3 days. It would be a 2.5 hour drive away for us, too, so it’s not like we’re close if something happens. I haven’t been away from him for even 1 night yet and he still just seems so young! It would be very hard to leave him for that long. Am I just a party pooper who needs to get over it? Genuine question. Like I actually need advice here guys

Breaking: Jonathan Miller, the Libertarian Party nominee for a Cary state senate seat, was taken into custody this afternoon with no shots fired. #ncpol He called WRAL during the standoff and spoke about what happened.
The whole police department is chasing me with guns drawn. This should be fun.

Tucked her into bed and she whispered “I love you Mom, I just wish the whole world belonged to me, I would make everything the way I want it to be”
Daughter age 5 is repulsed by underdog stories, she thinks the most powerful should win even if he’s “the bad guy”, is this developmental or her personality
