  • the people jumping to conclusions about who I am as a person and as a fan from the one comment.

    Like jumping to conclusions about a show you haven't watched based on one headline?

  • Well it's a different show with different writers and she isn't playing the timid and anxious character she was in early Discovery.

  • He literally addresses this at the end of the article.

  • We can no longer be content with moral victories

    But that's precisely all they're talking about doing here:

    coarser, insult-comedy-style attacks

    How about some fucking action, Democrats? They think the whole issue is the facade of messaging and not the fact that they side with Republicans nine times out of ten while pretending they're somehow different and deserve our vote because of that.

  • Obstruction isn't just used when someone is interfering with someone else's arrest. Ive seen countless bodycam videos where either one of these is used as a catch-all charge for the heinous crime of "contempt of cop" where some jackboot gets a bruised ego and slaps charges on someone to justify an illegal detainment or worse. They know most people don't have the means to get competent representation in court and will take a plea deal at the overworked public defender's suggestion which retroactively 'justifies' their crime and prevents any sort of blowback later since the victim plead guilty to something.

  • Arrested for "unlawful conduct" sounds like even more bullshit than being arrested for "resisting arrest."

  • Dont forget about the whole slavery part.

  • Its not really a mystery. He voluntarily took drugs that happened to have fentanyl in them. The flowery language in the article is there to cover for the cop. Do you think any other DUI crash death gets reported as "an accident?"

  • I did two rounds at a chiropractor years ago after injuring my upper back trying to remove a fallen tree (also had sciatica issues for a while previously) and after doing his magic told me to pull my shoulders back and down while squeezing my sides at my elbows to help with the upper back pain, and to hold my leg at a 90 with my ankle resting on my opposite knee while pushing down on the knee of the crossed leg for my lower back/hip joints. Previously, I couldn't stand in place for more than 20 minutes without severe pressure on my lower back and had numbness in my arm from the upper back injury, but both have completely stopped since then.

  • Dont forget about squeezing the teet to get coconut milk.

  • Can't think of any from DS9, actually. Probably why it's my favourite series.

    Well that's obviously Morn's character.

  • Would you not consider something like Frozen or Encanto to be musicals or just stuff that resembles a Broadway play? If the latter, I think the market isn't huge for these movies so studios don't want to make them. I can only think of one or two that I actually enjoyed. Most of the time the singing takes me out of the movie completely.

  • My system would achieve the same, but easier. Because it's easier to post or go to a different post than to go to a different community or create your own community. Also, with tags, you would avoid the problems with having multiple places to post the same topic. Also crossposting (when your post covers multiple topics) would be easier.

    I don't see how such a risk would necessarily arise. And if it did, because switching to a different conversation (and moderator) is so easy, you'd just do so.

    What stops me from tagging something "Star Trek," and then in the body of the post, pasting a link to some scam site selling dick pills, or creating dozens of bot accounts to do the same with every variation of tag? Nobody can stop me if I'm the only one who can moderate my posts.

    You mention that its "easy to switch to another post" but fail to mention how that would work in practice. Currently, you can find a similar post inside a dedicated community easily, but without a community to sort post topics, how are posts displayed? Chronologically? By upvotes? By recent activity?

    It sounds like you're just describing a feed like Facebook or Twitter. The former being nearly impossible to find specific posts on. Instead, you either need Groups (same as communities) or to rely on the algorithm. Also imagine either of those sites without moderation.

  • I think ive been here almost 3 years now and saw another post about this earlier today (asking if there are mod tools to deal with this) and someone said it was "the biggest problem Lemmy faces today," which I found quite odd as vote counts don't even matter here.

  • Around here the chimneys are fine and the road around them has sunk so they stick up a couple inches above the road surface.

  • It's not that it's digital media to blame, it just isn't something you can replicate very easily with physical media.

  • I thought Paris and Kim were great. The real sourness was Kes, Neelix (at times), Tuvix, and the lizards

  • We're about as far away from the 1995 debut of Voyager as it was from the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974.

    You're missing a decade there. Voyager debut to today is about the same length of time as Kirk and Uhura having the first interracial kiss on television in the 1960s to Voyager's debut in the '90s.

  • Im so glad they brought her into SFA. We definitely didnt see enough of her in DSC.
