Nice! I’m just new to lemmy and in all honesty, haven’t been able to catch any of the Brave New Worlds series at all.

Am likely going to just hit the torrents or my public library and start with the first season. Last Trek series I watched was Picard - which was fun enough. (who am I kidding, I’ve been in love with John DeLancie since his days as Eugene Bradford on Days of Our Lives… so any Q episodes are a delight… but I digress…)

Once I get the first season of BNW I’ll drop in and offer my thoughts on it.

Oh no… couldn’t happen to a nicer guy, amirite?

Does it move like slime molds are known to?

A 56 y/o half-brother that I would do almost anything for and a step-sister that… well… whatever.

ST:TNG - I rewatched The Inner Light…

Realized how fantastic the ending was when Picard opens the box and finds the flute he’d spent years learning how to play while he was being scanned - and taught - by the Kataan probe.

One of my favorite episodes out of all the Trek series.

Yikes! Y’all gotta eat better if your poop scrapes are cementing themselves to the bowl…

Damn!

Look at the demographic of any “left” and you generally find kids that don’t understand how societal power works.

Taking a few classes on sociology and reading Marx is fine and all that, but they need to understand the framework of conformist, consumerist America and leverage that… and as it’s anathema to what Marx says… they’ll forever be smacking their heads against the walls.

Then they grow up and become Wall Street brokers.

Sause: Am 60, and have seen this same shit happening over and over - for decades.

Yeah… when he stopped abruptly… As stated in the article… “deer in the headlights…”

Indeed.

Ohhh boy. What do you want to bet he buys his way to the top stats on the game he makes? Isn’t that how he’s been rolling with the games he does play online? Asmongold even busted him for it.

Yaah, this one’s gonna be a doozy.

This is it exactly.

And I kind of like that there are no total upvote/downvote stats tied to our accounts.

Prevents karma farming so it disinclines the behavior to rage-bait or post controversial items for attention.

(Remember u/unidan? Guy karma farmed hugely and eventually got rumbled creating some brouhaha over the difference between crows and jackdaws. Absolute stupidity that got the better of him…)

The content is more the focus here…

It’s a good movie, actually… Funny as fuck at points.

A face so ugly, the dog won’t play with him.

Thing is, it’s not half as ugly as he is on the inside.

Read a bit of history on him, the guy is massively fucked up, and I wonder what secret trauma he’s got that made him like he is. It goes beyond just being a young man that was angry at the world and has grown bitter as he’s aged.

It’s likely something emotionally crippling and so traumatic that he will never face it.

This makes me glad that I haven’t bought any Nestle products since the infant formula scandal of the 80’s

Unfortunately, the violence directed at them is what many on the right and even Trump himself want, because it will be used as a pretext to interfere in the mid-term elections coming in 2026.

I mean, they’re going to try anyhow, and stirring up shit will just give them that much more leverage to do so.

As rage-inducing as Trump is, just biding ones time and voting and getting everyone you know to vote in the mid-terms for the Democrats - even if the candidate is an absolute stinker - is what is needed to put the brakes onto this administration.

Thing is, those are guardsmen. Probaly are called up and pulled from their families to end up in Chicago… All for the benefit of a deflecting old fuck that doesn’t want us to remember that he’s likely on the Epstein list for doing the dirty to underage girls.

This is the EXACT thing we’re supposed to forget. Epstein.

So wrong on so many levels. The guy is an absolute tool.

The weird thing is apparently, I wasn’t allowed to delete my account last night. I thought I did, but I went back not too long ago and on a lark, signed in again. Account’s empty of all my unarchived posts - since I deleted it all, but I still have access. Think I’m going to see if the PM’s work and just start hoovering interesting articles and items from there. WTF, it’s not like I didn’t bring content to the site… Gonna take the best of it back and bring it here. Fuck it.

I think it’s weird that a 21-23-year-old dating an older person is really weird and inappropriate…

Honestly, often for younger women it’s a romp with somone that knows what they’re doing.

The BEST lay of my 20 years old life - and i’m now married for 30+ years - was a 45 year old guy and we hit it off for a few glorious months of sex that was incredible. Man knew EXACTLY what he was doing and twisted me up into positions I couldn’t get into now if the husband and I tried…

The whole idea that it’s unnatural or weird is an odd one. I worked for a ton of men that worked like slaves though their youth to get successful and in their 40’s finally found young women to start beautiful families with.

LOL !

Believe me, it gets worse as you get older…

I think it’s James Corden… used to do a show where he’d drive people around in a car and sing? Carpool Karaoke?

Something like that. I wonder who he pissed off…
