stanleytweedle,

I rewatched about 5 years ago and it’s just as great as I remembered it. Really thoughtful writing and performances. And old TV series seemed to give everything more time. With 20+ episodes in every season seems like they could let things marinate more. These shorter 8-12 episode seasons make everything feel too condensed to me.

stanleytweedle,

Headline should have been “Matt Gaetz Offers Bill To Defund Law Enforcement”.

Would You Try New Pastimes If Star Trek Level Medical Care Was Available?

Star Trek’s level of medical care is far more advanced than today’s. As Beckett says in LD, “Doc will wave a light over it.” Yet, in Star Trek people aren’t shown doing hobbies and pastimes that are much different from what’s done now. Still, I wonder about differences in a society where people know they won’t be...

stanleytweedle,

For me the medical care wouldn’t change much because you can still die a lot of ways and getting hurt probably still hurts a lot.

The big difference for me would be transporters. I hate traveling because for me the destination is the destination and the journey is just an annoyance. There are a thousand places I’d visit if getting there wasn’t such a pain in the ass.

stanleytweedle,

Sounds like my own private vat-of-acid episode.

Plus I’m thinking you’d need an unlicensed transporter to do that and disable whatever locks are designed to prevent people from doing exactly that. But then I’d forget to do some maintenance on a Heisenberg compensator and end up inside out in the mirror universe or something.

stanleytweedle,

Imagine Trump as a wartime president. “What if we glued decoy heads on all our soldiers so the enemy won’t know which one to aim at!”

stanleytweedle,

Weird how right-wing radio isn’t freaking out about how Trump ‘hates America’ when he makes comments like this.

stanleytweedle,

It was questionable before June 18th. Now it’s unquestionably bad.

stanleytweedle,

I’m barely qualified to install a logitech joystick and I wasn’t all that surprised.

stanleytweedle,

Damn, I missed that show but for some reason this makes me think of a live action version of the cartoon M.A.S.K.

stanleytweedle,

And under representation in the most populous states.

stanleytweedle,

Not really unprecedented though, it’s basically what he ran on the first time.

stanleytweedle,

I was a little sad when I heard the second season of Severance would be delayed due to the strike, but I’m 100% onboard with the WGA so I’ve got no problem waiting until they get a fair deal.

stanleytweedle,

A toy accordion I bought at a truck stop 30 years ago. I blew all of my $30 in vacation spending money on it and everyone said I’d regret it. It ended up kind of joke\prop instrument in all my bands and I still have it and it’s still fun to play.

stanleytweedle,

Gal Luft, who is a citizen of both the United States and Israel, is accused of paying a former adviser to Donald Trump on behalf of principals in China in 2016 without registering as a foreign agent.

I guess he didn’t learn to whistle until after the Trump administration.

stanleytweedle,

Why 2025? You can start your own luxury gay commune today, it’s a free country.

stanleytweedle,

I didn’t think /s was necessary here, but lesson learned.

stanleytweedle,

Did you verify any of this kook’s rant yourself or do you just believe whatever you see on youtube?

stanleytweedle,

I’m vision impaired so search results are difficult for me to comb through quickly. If you’re not just a lying liar I would appreciate it if you provided what you found that you think verified this kook’s rant.

stanleytweedle,

Thanks for confirming what we both already knew.

stanleytweedle,

What is your ‘easy definition’ of the difference between a man and a woman?

stanleytweedle,

What search terms would you suggest to verify your claims about this kook and his ‘receipts’?

stanleytweedle,

Wouldn’t it be fun to shut everyone up with proof? If you could just drop a links that proved your nonsense about this kooks ‘receipts’ everyone would be so impressed and enlightened. But- if you could you would.

stanleytweedle,

How would that help establish the veracity of his ‘receipts’? You’ve taken all this on faith without ever actually seeing the ‘receipts’ yourself?

stanleytweedle,

But you haven’t seen the ‘receipts’ yourself. Gotcha.

stanleytweedle,

Men and women are segregated for specific reasons regarding bathrooms and locker rooms.

What specific reasons?

stanleytweedle,

Wish they’d stop reporting every idiotic thing that comes out of his mouth. Everyone that is capable of knowing Trump is an idiot knows it damn good and well and everyone else is hopeless. It’s just rage bait at this point.

The only relevant news about Trump is his court cases.

The left must embrace law and order | Slavoj Zizek (www.newstatesman.com)

In a world of role-reversal, it would perhaps make the most sense to embrace the 21st century where the leftwing no longer seems to be the rude, vulgar, authentic force and instead insist that law and order is threatened by right wing terrorism as it bit by bit seeks to cast us into chaos on every front....

stanleytweedle,

The whole point of revolution is to establish a new order with different laws.

The notion that any ‘side’ doesn’t respect laws and order itself is nonsense. Unfortunately the term ‘law and order’ has been trademarked by certain groups to mean submission to certain brand of authority, but we don’t need to respect that trademark- ‘law and order’ aren’t inherently negative concepts, they’re kind of crucial to a functional society.

stanleytweedle,

Tell that to my CIO.

stanleytweedle,

The funny thing to me is I’m a sysadmin and I use a linux desktop and most of the devs I work with do also. The only people that use Windows desktops are end users that pretty much only use Office anyway and their PCs are basically used as advanced typewriters plus youtube. The C-suite has Macs but demands desktops run Windows because it’s all they know. We’ve even gotten rid of all the garbage legacy apps so the only reason we use Windows is the stuck habits of people that don’t even use Windows themselves.

But I know we’ll never stop paying MS. Windows is basically the Imperial measurement system or qwerty keyboards at this point. Our grandchildren will use it because our grandparents used it, well- not exactly but you get the idea.

stanleytweedle,

Who hears a name like ‘Moms for Liberty’ and actually thinks ‘definitely sounds like some mothers that care about liberty’.

stanleytweedle,

‘Enlightenment centerism’ is so tiresome

There’s no argument against bodily autonomy. Everything else is either blind sentiment or disingenuous bullshit.

stanleytweedle,

So you don’t believe in a right to self-defense?

stanleytweedle,

Yet somehow usable enough to make a post whining about how unusable it is…

stanleytweedle,

As my username suggests- I love 'Lexx'.

It's beautifully sleezy sci-fi fantasy and not nearly enough people know about it. I caught it on Netflix about 10 years ago but I think you can watch it on youtube now free with commercials.

Highly recommend to any fans of sci-fi, but especially if you loved stuff like Farscape and Red Dwarf.

Also shout out to 'Avenue 5'. Hilariously dark sci-fi comedy that HBO criminally underpromoted. Also 'Other Space'.

stanleytweedle,

July 1st is going to be interesting.
