Absurd that pointing guns at people to get fake support would be seen as any more legitimate than just having the soldiers do the fake voting themselves.
Yes, it's not much different from tipping. Puts the burden of responsibility in the wrong place. If a business wants to support charities and use it in marketing, just give money to charities and tell people how much it was. And/or give people the contact details of the charities if you want to promote them.
The biggest state, bigger than many countries. How different can it be from other parts of the same country?
An armed society is a society where people are looking for someone to shoot.
I watched some of the GWB parodies. I never had any interest in watching Trump parodies, and I'd be annoyed to have comedians do them in shows I otherwise liked.
It's not funny anymore, and it wasn't really that fun then, although satire is a valid method of political commentary. But week after week, there's nothing new, nothing that's more shocking than what was already known. They're fully and completely terrible persons, who should never have political power. Don't need to embody them to understand that.
Except they don't even attempt to look like good people. Satan would think he's been doing it all wrong, he should've just said "I'm here to rule over you all and destroy the world, vote for me".
I thought the idea was that Republicans are actively working on destroying what has been working fine and is benefitting lots of people, not just on preventing more progress.
AI PC sounds like something that will be artificially personal more than anything else.
Or you could say night is the anomaly, because most places in the universe are stars.
Nighttime is absence. You could say most of the universe is absence, but most matter is stars.
Isn't that the goal for some people in meditation? Nothingness.
Well, Super Mario and WoW are opposites in how many options you have. Forsaken is one of the few I never played.
Although for fantasy games, some people don't want to play humans at all, because they're too relatable.
Is there ever not a crisis at the border according to Republicans?
Is there ever not obstruction caused by Republicans in Congress?
But commercial hydrogen is made in a very carbon-intensive way, although it’s possible to make with zero emissions.
Even in an ideal case, you're using up energy that could've been used to reduce emissions elsewhere.
Seriously, because she's from a different universe, her actions of committing genocide and torture across any number of star systems are irrelevant?
If Starfleet doesn't care what people do "in their own space", how could they ever have a problem with anything? Just declare yourself a ruler, obviously democracy doesn't play into it, and you decide what you can do anywhere you are.
Of course. The more you have to spend on shelter, the less you have for everything else.
Cuts should be made at the top, not the bottom. Always. If you have to raise your rents, no you don't. You have spare properties, you're doing fine.
You mean part of a single episode.
No. They kept her around like she wasn't someone who should be imprisoned for life, far removed from any position where she could manipulate others.
If they wanted to help others, there was a universe full of people more deserving. Two, even.
Not to mention the fact you say after TNG that the older style was dead as if Voyager doesn’t exist.
Yep.
Lucky they made DS9 before TNG had even finished, then.
We didn't really get more of the TNG side of things with the TNG movies. Then they moved on to JJA Star Trek, which wasn't much of anything, not dark, not utopian, just references.
While Discovery was in part based around rescuing an ultra-fascist from another universe.
It took bringing back Picard himself to approach doing what they once did decades ago. And I guess not let the actor have too much say over the script, if that's what messed up the movies.
Noted.
If they weren't Jewish, the whole thing would've probably just been scrapped.
It's been over five years since the last one, so it seems about time to do another one.
I want to be as thorough as possible. But I don't want to do 357 separate threads. Or rather, I don't want to post once per day for 357 separate days.
So I could post groups of threads at once, one thread per episode/movie, which would work fine for search engines. But it is spammy.
The other extreme would be one thread per season. I'm not sure if the character limit is going to allow for it, and breaking it up into multiple posts within the thread would be less clean.
Or I could do one thread per roughly 7 episodes. That seems to be an okay grouping, in terms of having multi-part stories in the same thread. Will occasionally cross seasons, though.
As for content, last time I felt like I was being overly negative, because it's easier to comment on what I don't like. So I want to have some regular sections, and I'm open to suggestions.
First dealing with the negative, and trying be constructive about it:
Why this episode doesn't work (optional).
How this episode could've worked, imagining what could've been happening off-screen.
And how it could've been done differently (changing the existing scenes).
Then more neutral:
Stats, like death count for characters, or maybe resurrection count, because not everyone has that.
What's new in this episode, like first contact with a species/civilization, a world, a tech, gaining an ally/enemy (or a Major players appearance count, accompanied by a stat for significant one-offs), defeating an enemy (although maybe not, since that could be a spoiler for who's coming back). Could have stats for lost worlds, ships, etc.
Then positive, or highlights: A fun scene, an interesting idea, new potential, good acting (although generally I don't comment on performances).
I also want to build on my own theories. Such as what an apparently abandoned world could be used for, how low-key allies could be more involved, how new tech could be used (instead of only being used to solve a new problem, and then forgotten about), or how vulnerabilities could've been exploited. Adding up across the series, each of the series, over time. If that isn't too complicated. Ultimately, with each new path taken, the story could branch into its own alternate reality.
Maybe separate that out to supplemental threads.
And finally or maybe put this at the top, plot summary, general commentary.
If I go with the 7 episodes a thread option, I guess an apt thread title would be; "2023 rewatch 2/52, Stargate SG-1 Season 1 E01-E07". And something like "2023 Stargate rewatch Supplement A, Alliance of the Four Great Races".
Freia-eigar Mondelez seier dei har nedskalert verksemda i Russland. Dei lovar også at den russiske produksjonen skal bli skilt frå resten av selskapet innan året er omme.

Får se hva de faktisk gjør i løpet av de nærmeste månedene, men det blir uttrykt her at det hjelper å boikotte selskap. At vi ikke er for små til å merkes i markedet.
