@PLHstock @Scaramucci The crazy part about Pepe's is that there are 3 or 4 places on their level within a mile.

@Scaramucci Pepe’s in New Haven

My favorite: Sal’s Coal Fired Pizza Port Washington NY Also Victory Pig Pizza Wyoming PA. Nothing like those two anywhere.

@alexproff @fandompulse > an alien that vomits reflective pieces of graphene This is the only clip I've seen of the show. 4th wall breaks like its Ferris Bueller. The tone was wild.

@fandompulse Academy was one of the best things that could have happened to Star Trek. But no. The die-hards want to keep living in the past, so new ideas had to be booed. Can't have gay Klingons. Can't have an alien that vomits reflective pieces of graphene or swallows a combadge. Fuckers.

Pulp Fiction writer Roger Avary on Alex Kurtzman's Star Trek: "This dweeb Alex Kurtzman comes along and just [expletive] all over everything. Just craps all over it. I went in and met with the guy. I was like, 'Hey, I will write for scale. I'll write on your new show. I just want to be part of it.' And I basically found out he didn't want anybody who had any kind of fondness for the original show. He wanted to do something new and to create something new. And boy has he [expletive] the bed like in a big way. ... That [expletive] Alex Kurtzman, man. His company is called Secret Hideout, I think. He's going to need a secret hideout after destroying Star Trek for this latest generation. Starfleet Academy is an abomination. I could not get through 3 episodes of Discovery. It just awful, awful storytelling. ... Just horrible. And they're more interested in the corproate propaganda with any kind of personal propaganda." Is he correct?

@joeltanderson @C_S_Skeptic @RealEmirHan The entire point of her character was to be a foil to Picard. Of course she was irritating.

@C_S_Skeptic @RealEmirHan Yes I know but her character was ... more irritating than Troi which is a lot.

This scene is why Star Trek Next Generation is peak. Picard is simply the best Captain because of many things but this wisdom alone proves it. “With the first link, the chain is forged. The first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.”

@noeldacosta @sunny051488 @ChrisMartin1961 Oh yeah. If you were born in bombed-out Europe in 1950 that’s a different world.

@HashVisser @sunny051488 @ChrisMartin1961 So you’re only talking about America i guess

I’m seeing, yet again, this surge of hatred for the Boomer generation. I’m a late season Boomer, born in 1961; I’ve worked for nearly 50 years, have been in the same profession for 37 years, I’ve routinely worked 45-60 hours a week. I don’t get why we are so vilified.

@noeldacosta @sunny051488 @ChrisMartin1961 Assuming? It's not their fault the world was handed to them on a silver platter, relative to all other generations. But it's laughable when they don't acknowledge or deny it.

@HashVisser @sunny051488 @ChrisMartin1961 Assuming that’s true… how is that the fault of the boomers?

@FSimatra12024 @Cernovich "People are dumb for believing the President" - you

@Cernovich I’m not saying manipulating markets to help insider traders is good but why are traders so fucking stupid they keep nelievinf the lying sack of shit. You used to only be able to cry wolf once

Oh.

@Patrici48060503 @ChrisMartin1961 My boomer parents got free tuition in NY to a SUNY school. Regents Scholarships.

Bc they have been lied to. One millennial posted the other day that boomers got free college education and only paid $5.00 for rent. I told no one got free college and rent was never $5.00 and minimum wage was $1.25. She said I was the one lying bc her professor told their class, so it must be true. They (whoever ‘they’ are) are dividing us all, by race, age, income, politics and any way else they can. I think the schools and colleges are our enemies (yeah, another division)!

@sunny051488 @ChrisMartin1961 Step 1: have almost all nations of the world destroyed by a world war. Step 2: Be the US and safe on the other side of the Ocean. Step 3: Profit

Because you think it’s hard work as a postman that made you rich when it was just 40 straight years of falling interest rates and money printing that drove asset valuations. But mainly because retired boomer postmen laugh at younger postmen today and wonder why they don’t own houses doing the same job they used to 40 years ago but were able to buy a house back then.

@nothere_now @lanechanged @ChrisMartin1961 @Liberalibrarian Boomers turn 80 this year.

@lanechanged @ChrisMartin1961 @Liberalibrarian To be fair the people in charge seem to be mostly people in their 80s/90s (look at how many people in Congress are of those ages). People in their early 60s don't have much in common with those people.

@UTEX1985a @AhmedBaba_ I almost didn't believe you. It was worse than I thought. youtube.com/watch?v=HSf7Zp… What's with the 4th wall break? Filming Star Trek like Ferris Bueller is a fucking choice.

@AhmedBaba_ They lost me when the dude vomited glitter.. fucking stupid.

Right-wing haters killed something that was objectively amazing. Starfleet Academy had one of the best first seasons of any Trek show. Period. These anti-woke losers would’ve had a stroke at Riker rizzing up non-binary aliens in TNG. Star Trek has always been progressive.

@R007pert @ChefReactions That's not even well paired. You should have arugula or frisée salad with foie gras, not ground beef.

@ChefReactions Back in the late 90s I had some fancy-arsed burger at one of the Gordon Ramsay joints, it had foie gras and what-not on it. I can't remember the price (wasn't paying myself, so not a trick/mark/sucker... well, yeah I am) but it was stupid money.

@Boenau SHE CAN RE-APPLY FOR HER LICENSE IN 3 YEARS!?!?!?!?!

Judges are not immune from Car Brain.

@HeardChanda @ingelramdecoucy I don't hear people talk enough about where the writers & creators came from. Roddenberry & almost all his peers served in the armed forces. They had life to pull stories from. Kurtzman was born in LA and has made movies his whole life. Fake shit is all he knows.

@ingelramdecoucy The only way that's going to happen is for Hollywood to be decimated like Sodom and Gomorrah and rebuilt by competent, relatively moral people.

A new Star Trek series, but it’s made by people who have actually watched and enjoyed the previous Star Trek series

@b01dface @ingelramdecoucy If they could only write a B-plot, it'd be perfect.

@ingelramdecoucy That’s The Orville

@chungusbeast55 @TransitNzBRFC @GADeptofTrans Like every traffic engineer has a brain injury?

@TransitNzBRFC @GADeptofTrans Are you aware of the demographics of georgia?

The widening of I-95 near the Savannah River will improve travel for thousands of drivers each day while supporting the continued growth of the Port of Savannah—one of the fastest-growing ports in the nation. A smarter, safer corridor is on the way. bit.ly/4ux3vjW

@eglassr2 @Scaramucci More important for whom?

@Scaramucci This war is more important than a temporary hike in gas prices. YOU KNOW THIS! Drop your politics.

Oil at $99 and the Strait is still closed. If this war goes another 30 days, $200 oil isn’t a threat from Tehran — it’s just math. And $6 gas is the midterm earthquake nobody in the West Wing is planning for.”

@donaldkoenig @SeanTourangeau @StarTrek I don't understand this take. I fell in love with TNG when I was 13. I still love it today.

@SeanTourangeau @StarTrek I hope you don't get hate. It is a show about younger people at a specific type of their lives. It might not work on me (have not watched it yet) as I am quite a bit passed that time. That is fair. As they say on Vulcan, Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combination. #IDIC

Well I watched the whole first season of #starfleetacademy and to me it missed more than hit for me. I give it a C- , I know a lot of folks will hate my opinion either way. @StarTrek really is not targeting my Demographic anymore. That being said I’ll tune in next season to see if it get any better.

@feverdreamcabal @grok @Legio_CC @jondelarroz To be fair, the galaxy is way more a disc than a sphere.

@grok @Legio_CC @jondelarroz In Star Trek, space is 2D

Starfleet Academy is written for retarded people. In the new episode they state there's 240 billion particles of this new super weapon that surrounds the entire Federation as a minefield. Particles are very small. That's amount could make a shell of 200 meters. They didn't bother to check.

@PalmyrPar @kysnger Not even ignorant for engagement. Non-blue check out here being ignorant for love of the game.

@kysnger Is this supposed to be something

Off on the timing by even a few milliseconds and say bye bye to every molecule of that rocket and about half the launch structure.

@70sscifi Homeworld inspiration I'm sure.
