Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.
questioned whether there was sufficient evidence of uncontacted peoples in the area, saying the territory had been tied up for nearly two decades
“it’s been 1/5 of a human lifespan, obviously nobody is still there since I haven’t seen them.”
As if they’d all have died off in 20 years or nobody contacting them somehow makes it fair game?
People won’t stand up for their neighbors and community when Nazies are rounding the others up
Because it doesn’t directly affect them yet.
“Then they came for my coffee”, and all that.
Nope, not me.
I’d like to think I’m funny though…
Well, I mean I DO technically have a YouTube channel that hasn’t posted since 2017 and only has a few battlefield 3/4 clips on it I wanted to show friends.
Which YouTube guy would I be?
Fun anecdote: a relative, without a hint of irony, goes on about how they deserve to be there because “they used to live there 2,000 years ago”
Apparently I’m an “asshole”, “woke” and “antisemitic” for bringing up native Americans…
Just a thought experiment, how sink-proof are these things?
If someone were to build a homemade submarine with a drill, how many holes would one have to theoretically drill to make a yatch sink?
Well yeah, if you’re trapped in one of our many prisons, you get to look forward to slave labor! Slavery is perfectly legal and constitutional, as per the 13th amendment.
As an American, seconded.
I’m trapped here, don’t YOU risk being kidnapped and trapped here or sent somewhere worse just because you wanted to see the Grand Canyon.
That banner SLAMMED Jeff bezoz!
I’m sure he didn’t just chuckle to himself and sleep even more soundly at night.
“Tourists hit cyclist and fled the scene”
… Probably Americans.
reads the very next line
Wow, I’m soooooo surprised. Shocked, even.
Can American tourists not be shit for FIVE MINUTES???
“genocide is okay as long as it’s the right people”
-someone insane
That’s literally what it feels like: being stuck in an objective (the planet) and you have a teammate that’s SUPER gung ho about the fact he’s got a bomb vest (nukes) on that will go off if he dies, and you’re just praying he doesn’t catch a stray round (attack) while shooting at people from the doorway (doing proxy war things or just straight up committing/supporting genocide/ethnic cleansing/war of extermination/etc) or lose connection (leadership going insane).
If any of those things happen, you know you’re all toast. And it’s all mostly outside of your control.
I hate to use video games as a metaphor for literal nuclear war and sorry for spelling it out like I’m talking to a child but I felt it was needed for clarity.
We’re all on the planet together, and no one will ever be able to force everyone into submission, the more we fight the shorter time we have as a species.
nobody should have nuclear weapons.
Sometimes I wonder what the world would be like if the scientists working on the Manhattan project had all agreed it’s too much and intentionally sabotage every test.
Yeah, but this way you get to make sure your intended target actually gets hit instead of assuming the following nuclear wastwland would destroy your target like everything else.
It’s like the Martyrdom perk in fps games. You die and drop a grenade or c4 pack or something and explode, hopefully taking out the person who killed you.
It’s just a dead-man switch to get the AD part of MAD.
Effective? Maybe.
Incredibly stupid? Yes.
Is that stopping the US and Russia from doing it? Lolno we invented this dumb shit.
The world is run by insane people who would rather see the planet scorched into a lifeless rock than admit their way of doing things might be wrong.
Cool.
The more they focus on trying to kill me, the less resources they have to kill some Palestinian.
It’s getting harder and harder to frame the IDF as the victims.
Similarly, it’s pretty hard to claim you’re the victim when you knocked your neighbor unconscious, dragged them into the basement, and beat them with a baseball bat for the next 24 hours.
The only thing that fully explains the deletion of the photos is opsec, though
“… without any assumptions, regardless of how plausible, bordering on certainty, that the assumption is” I suppose.
know everything about us and would track us down if any hidden or un-deleted photo was ever published.
“if you go back to your country and post anything we will murder you”
Personally I’d just use encrypted backups or data recovery and post literally everything I could, possibly with a taunt calling out the coward who can only threaten people when backed up by billions in military funding and personnel.
Phrasing like that reminds me of all the “this is the commu-social-marxism the libs want” and it’s just a picture of current capitalism.
I don’t trust an ICE thug to know the difference between night and day, let alone different asians/pacific islanders.
The ONLY Asians I’d expect them to be able to identify are russians.
