Idk, I know a pianist and his house is just filled with boxes and boxes of sheets music!
In this case like this I feel like anon just has shitty friends and needed to find a group he fits in better with. If you're awkward and weird, you've just got to find the awkward and weird kids to be friends with (anime club, theater, ect) there's even awkward and weird girls there!
Looks don't even matter that much in dating (unless you've got porn brainrot). So long as you're not deformed or super obese, someone will be attracted to you, and chances are you'll find them attractive too. Just don't be a creep and have interest outside of video games and modern dating is pretty easy.
Star Trek is popular among left-wing turbonerds, aka Lemmys primary demographic. There was also a big push to join Lemmy on r/StarTrek after Reddits API controversy.
Biggest argument in favor of compulsory military service I've ever seen. The everyday citizen soldiers didn't give a fuck about the coup, and weren't willing to risk confrontation with their military trained fellow citizens for a wannabe dictator. It was a beautiful thing.
Do the same thing Tng did; make old enemies allies and invent new antagonist.
His rise really is symbolic of the rot that has taken hold of our society. Truly, our most degenerate moron has risen to the top of the shit pile.
Whales, Elephants, and the other Great Apes are all likely to go too, and they don't deserve it. Humans brought this on ourselves, but the loss of peaceful intelligent life is a true tragedy.
About to be a total Doomer, but I would just like to remind everyone that the current effects we are seeing are due to carbon pumped into the atmosphere 30 YEARS AGO! And emissions have only increased since then.
As a millennial, it's been a hard reckoning that greed and evil truly won before I was born. There was nothing I could ever have done about it. All I can do is just ride it out. In a way, I am privileged. I've always had an interest in history, how fortunate I am to witness it's end.
Disappointed that Marina Sirtis wouldn't interview, though I kind of get why. Her role as a woman on Trek is certainly one of the more... complicated ones.
It's because the only "woke" thing nu-trek writers understand is representation, which even that is pretty tame by treks standards. Yeah there's more POC and lgbtq representation, which is important, but is also pretty standard for our time. There is nothing as groundbreaking as the first interracial kiss on television, or one of the first gay kisses.
Nu-trek writers don't understand Treks optimism and idealism at all. Gene Roddenberrys vision of a post-scarcity socialist utopia is simply beyond their ability to understand and write. They're a bunch of Neolibs who can't imagine a world without capitalism and just write dystopian scifi filled with interpersonal drama because that's what's in and what sells right now.
Riker is clearly pan
There's no way Musk "works" 100 hours a week. How do you think he's found all this time to spend with his new bestie Donald? By all accounts the guy spends a significant amount of his time playing video games and on Twitter. His "work" is lunch meetings and zoom calls with the board where he just spitballs a bunch of nonsense.
Why not just cut out history education all together? It's not like anyone was paying attention anyway /s
You're right, it will be a slow setup then a sudden overwhelming deluge, if not in two years then in four. That's project 2025's whole thing. It all really just depends on how much GOP incompetence and in-fighting delays their plans.
My comment about Trump was more aimed at the fact that he is an old man in seemingly poor health who doesn't even really like being president beyond the power trip and ego boost. His main motivation for running again was to avoid legal consequences for the corruption of his first term. If he doesn't die within the next four years my money is on him being forced to step down and pardoned by Vance
Yeah, things are going to get bad, but it's going to happen slowly. So slowly that a lot of people panicking right now will calm down and go back to business as usual. We will be distracted and forget this is happening, until it's too late to do anything about it. I'd be shocked if Trump is even president/alive still when America goes full mask-off fascist.
That's what's so insidious about it.
Bingo. American industry, British intelligence, and Russian Blood won the war in Europe. It was always a combined effort, and anyone claiming one power could have won alone is talking nonsense.
With American supplies, the USSR might have been able to defeat Germany without the Allies sending ground forces into Europe. However, there’s no way the Red Army could have defeated both Germany and Japan alone. The United States was the major force in the Pacific theater.
The plan to make up for immigrant labor is prison labor. Tank the economy, further criminalize homelessness. Wouldn't be shocked if debters prisons make a big comeback.
