  • Lucky is accurate. I'm very jealous. I had a similar experience for a newer show but no moments of that wall being up. Always seeing the workings behind the scenes so you couldn't really sink into it

  • Found time rule
  • Sorry, I was unclear there. I had my wording all fucked up.

    There are two parts to the 'nobody' thing. The first is the word nobody and then the second is the silence after it. It's to denote that no one anywhere had ever thought or heard a particular thing. Then another group comes in as part of the meme and asks that particular question. To turn the meme into a sentence it would be:

    "Not a single living soul in creation had ever expressed this idea but suddenly, one day, a group of Star Trek fans asked something fucked up for the very first time."

    Whether it's fucked up or interesting or whatever is denoted by the general context or feeling that the question/idea gives. In this case it would be fucked up.

  • I'm in my early 30s. Yeah it's not great. My fault for not lifting with my knees. Human body was designed by a commission. This thing sucks. Any back problem immediately throws a wrench into the gears of everything else

  • Found time rule
  • The nobody stands for never thinking nor asking the particular thing that follows

  • Betrayal
  • I was watching some Critical Role recaps and was in the middle of a deeply intense emotional moment. I had to turn away because I was welling up a bit and looked to the second monitor. A single lemmy message. I refresh. It's this.

    I cannot stop laughing at both the absurdity of the moment and the intense hilarity of that comment.

    Bravo. Bra-fucking-vo.

  • I did! I fucked up my back in the move but things went well. Una, my cat, did fairly well too. She was vocal a lot of the time and meowing sadly in her carrier although the most when we were moving around. She had to be taken out at one point for them to scan the carrier and she just wanted to explore. Had her on a lil leash and she was looking around a ton. The take off and landing she was meowing a lot but in the air she didn't make a sound. I, on the other hand, was pacing the plane trying not to throw up from back pain.

    Got in the cab immediately after landing and went off to my new place. Got the keys from the hiding spot and let her out. Set up the litter box and food that I ordered and got my sister to drop off the night before. I spent the night curled up around the toilet because it was the most comfortable place and position. Next few weeks were a bit rough on the back and trying to figure out things in the new place but otherwise went well. Got a job (Which is why I've not been posting as much) and had my best friend move in. Things are going well. Back is still fucked and the bed I have is way too firm for me so it's making it worse. That's the biggest complaint right now. Everything otherwise is actually good which is a first for me.

    Thank you for asking <3

  • It goes one way or the other for me but nothing in between. Either it's better than the others or absolute garbage that falls apart almost immediately. It's a bit of a mindfuck

    When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • The criticism is worthless though as 95% of it was applied to every other new Trek to be released

  • When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • They're not identical though. Just like Lorca was never set up for it.

  • Live updates: Trump injured in shooting at Pennsylvania rally; attendee and gunman killed
  • Fuck Trump and I genuinely hope he doesn't live long but assassination is obscene. First, it's just abhorrent. Second, you'll make him a fuckin martyr.

    Either way this is insanity. That shot of Trump bloody with fist up in front of the flag is going to be plastered everywhere for months.

    Step the FUCK DOWN BIDEN. You're now an old man stumbling through gaffe after gaffe and Trump was given a massive free PR boost. Not to mention he will 100% use this as justification to go after political rivals.

  • When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • I'm with you buddy. On pretty much everything. There are things in Rise of Skywalker I like (Rey's new lightsaber is bitching but I also actually do like her taking the name Skywalker) but most of it feels like it was written by 14 people at the same time. But the sequels in general I do like quite a bit. BB8 is adorable, Rey is awesome, Finn is hot as balls, Poe can equally get it and I loved seeing Carrie Fisher back in the saddle

  • When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • But he was never that. Ash Tyler was the one set up for having PTSD but the only thing close to it for Lorca was when he jumped Admiral Cornwall when they were sleeping together. But at the end of that episode we see him purposefully set her up to fail and then abandon her.

  • When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • The new Treks are all much more modern and contemporary

    As opposed to TNG, DS9 and Voyager using more modern and contemporary filming techniques than TOS? Enterprise going even further?

    The underlying topics are much closer to reality

    I... what? This is clearly from you looking back, not from you experiencing it at the time. EVERY TREK DID THIS. TOS had an episode aggressively about racism and segregation, not to mention the Uhura kiss in a time of extreme racism against anyone black and the civil rights movement. TNG had an episode about deafness being a part of his race but not a disability, a couple of years after Children of a Lesser God was released. They also had multiple episodes about genetic alteration, something that was just rising to prominence in reality with GMOs, engineered drugs and the first time animals had their genes changed. I mean even Barclays holoaddiction was a BLATANT comparison to the rise of video games at the time and worries about becoming addicted to it. The complaint that its "much closer to reality" is completely void.

    It is a completely different category of show

    The exact same complaint was made against TNG and DS9 but now both are under the same category. The category is Star Trek. Not Star Trek that feels a certain way. If it is Star Trek then it, by default, is in the same category.

    I'll agree on the bit that different Treks feel different but I outright reject the notion that due to a different feel it doesn't get to be classed as Star Trek. Once again. Star Trek gets to have diversity in the numbers through characters, races and species. Why are the shows not allowed the same?

  • When you finally get to watch Discovery and realize it isn't actually an enormous pile of mugato dung
  • Up until Lower Decks, no Star Trek show had a good first season. Most of them had a rocky second as well. Also why I balk everytime someone says "Yeah I watched the first couple episodes of the first season and gave up." But you sat through the first season of TNG and the first 3 of Voyager with no issue?! Seasons that are twice as long?!
