How about introducing impeachment proceedings about it? Or at least making a vocal statement supporting that.

When I was deployed in '06-07, the Navy was publishing reports about East Coast bases and the infrastructure costs of rising sea levels, including potential relocation. Very much taking climate change seriously even while administration of the time denied it.

Considering that the Navy was actively planning climate mitigation and risk into their base maintenance and proposals in the early 2000's...

Nice work so far! The design looks great, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you've come up with for the back.

Are you using a service for the laser cut steel parts?

a two panel meme

panel 1 - geordi signalling 'no' with the text data centres and images of data centres

Panel 2 - geordi signalling 'yes' with the text "data centaurs" and a crudely edited image of the character data from star trek pasted on top of a centaur

do you ever wake up at 3am and think "shit that's a good idea, I better write that down so I can share it later on"

It is just going to take some work to modify a frame design so it fits well in all my holders.

Glad I bought the lomograflok, but now experimenting with 3d printed frames so I can load instax sheets into 4x5 film holders. I'll still need the lomograflok to develop them though. It will add some steps to the process, but let me use non-graflok cameras for instax photos.

In electoral politics, that could potentially cause confusion between the people running against Orban and the voters that support those candidates. I still don't like the "anti-x supporter" construction though.

Instant gratification rules actually, except in photography where we should all wait to develop film and make prints.

The Joker's wierd ecclesiastical phase from the 90's. The "God's just Joshing!" catchphrase was a reasonably good pun for a certain type of theologically knowledgeable comic reader, but it never caught on with the mainstream and was quickly forgotten.

Turns out the Mamiya C330 is pretty fun and easy to use when the lenses and shutters are clean and operating smoothly.

I just need a General Martok to lead a Klingon commander deck. Creature type "Klingon Warrior" or I shall be publicly slightly grumpy.

I don't like Universe Beyond in general, but I am probably going to spend too much money on the Start Trek set so I am definitely some kind of hypocrite.

You deserve good things. I wish we lived in less stressful times.

(for those who don't know, a War Collage is generally a graduate school for select experienced officers where they combine their practical field experience with intensive study to produce valuable scholarship on tactics, history, international affairs, and other service-relevant fields)

I really like the story conclusion. Moving Federation HQ to Betazed is a nice way to resolve the conflict.

Annoyed about the Academy vs War College thing, but not because they're rival schools. I'm here for rival schools. The writers just didn't care what a war college really is.

Did they downgrade Betazoids from telepaths to empaths? Not a big deal from a story telling standpoint, but annoying from a show that otherwise drops little canon nuggets as hooks to try to keep long term fans' attention.

Give me less of the student lead and less of the chancellor and way more SAM.

Whale CGI wasn't great.

Some of these moments felt unearned, but these are young people in a teen oriented story so I can try to accept.

More of the Klingon cadet also.

The Doctor remains a delight.

Ep2 of ST:A

I hate the leaders calling their adult cadets children. It is frustratingly disrespectful.

Jett Reno continues to be a gift.

A Betazoid without the black eyes? I wish they kept that physical distinction.

Some good gags, some bad.

a black and white typography edit. there is white text that reads "don't want to see trans people? pluck out your eyes." in the middle of the design is a hand holding a scorpion by the tail. between the scorpion's claws is a human eyeball. the entire image is edited to look photocopied.

As an addendum, your menu shouldn't be a website and absolutely must not be an app. I will leave your restaurant before I install your app on my phone.

Your website probably should not be an app.

Also Balance of Terror in TOS, a story famously about racial prejudice and the tragedy of hostile states throwing away the lives of people who would otherwise respect one another.

Good turnout at Philly #NoKings. Had fun talking with a LOT of folks and shooting portraits of some real characters.

I was surprisingly mobile with, um, 3x LF cameras, 2x tripods, and several more small cameras!! 😅 shot some film, paper, and DPP.

Hope something comes out!

Sorry for the comment resurrection! Didn't notice the date. Fair call on the sentiment.

DS9 ran concurrently with TNG for a year, so the DS9 pilot happened during TNG's sixth season.

I'm not mad. I got a good price still and it has been fun going through the whole collection, but it does eat up a lot of space I don't really have. Looking forward to clearing them out eventually.
