Red Letter Media just put out a video on the SV costume and turns out the actress for Nancy Crater was also the one wearing the suit.

It is interesting that at about the halfway mark they do start to drop dialogue meant to create sympathy for it as well as describing its circumstances as being tragic.

Just seems as if American Conservatives are absolutely full of it and they never cared about "grooming" in the first place.

Say... How regularly do we know Trump was calling Epstein? Oh... That much? And those calls coincide with calls by Epstein to young women in his "stable" you say? But SUDDENLY Trump decides Epstein wasn't cool in 2007? Seems odd, no? Wait... Acosta was in Trump's cabinet? Barr at DoJ?

Ah, this is the part of an election that I am intimately familiar with.

Republicans/Conservatives screw up the economy and politics, and now the Democrats/Labour have to come in and fix their shit. #UKElection

Imma say it... A lot of the under fifty set of Anti-Semites have indeed taken up the Palestinian cause or at least cosplay at it. And more need to realize it. That's not a knock on standing against Israeli oppression but it means to be vigilant.

Seems the common thread to this week's SCOTUS rulings is impunity for the powerful. Impunity for Trump. Impunity for corporations who would be regulated under Chevron. Undercutting any obligation to the rest of society. But for someone living in a tent trying to survive? Off to jail.

Responding to the recent tearing down of several confederate statues, Trump declares he will build a “National Garden of American Heroes” - a park filled with hundreds of statues of “the greatest Americans to ever live," from Antonin Scalia to Alex Trebek. (It is never built.)

Show me to one story of an LEO who who refused beating citizens? Firing rubber bullets at people's residence? Covering their badges to escape consequences? It's been years... I don't know of one. I'm sorry but from Mike Flynn to Crenshaw to J.D. Vance, military service doesn't guarantee Jack.

Of all the LEOs who in the summer of 2020 beat on everyone from the elderly to the press covering the news of the day, to all the Federal officers who cleared out protestors from the front of the WH because Trump wanted a photo op... How many have publicly come out regretting their actions?

Gosh once the NYT has pushed Biden to drop out it'll be awesome because I'm sure they won't immediately start tearing down whichever D replaces him while leaving Trump unscathed all the way up to election day.

i was just going to make a post about this. if trump decides you are an enemy of the state or a “threat to national security” and has you deported, citizenship or not, there’s nothing you can do to get home. he has full legal power to render you stateless.

Trump's "Brand" was not of a traditional Republican. He positioned himself not so much as a conservative so much as a "pox upon both houses" outsider. Yes, American Conservatism paved the way for him but he's not an ideological hero. Many voters wanted to "send a message/shake things up".

It "fixes" my biggest issues with the first two: Lack of meaningful back and forth between Bones and Spock. Urban and Quinto obviously could handle it. I understand beefing up Uhura but Bones effectively being sidelined for two films was head scratching. And, I enjoy those movies, flaws and all.

(1/3) Today's rant: I will say it with absolute conviction: The bullying of Daisy Ridley and Kelly Marie Tran over Star Wars was sociopathic behavior. I used to be pretty open about being a Star Wars fan. I'm not so open anymore. I am AFRAID of many Star Wars fans.

Eh... I highly doubt the "coal miner" coalition is the reason. I do think Obama contributed to general political sourcing by not prosecuting anyone for the willful misleading and then malfeasance in regards to the Bush/Cheney admin. taking the US to war in Iraq and the occupation.

Which is why SW is "genetically" closer to Flash/Buck Rogers than The Day The Earth Stood Still. There's almost never techno-babble justification in regards to the ships or weapons. Ironically it's "Space Wizards" stuff that gets all the exposition. Like I stated what I WANT from both is different.

So, this is very true, but please also consider that the Supreme Court just gave Donald Trump the OK to declare your mutual aid groups terrorist cells and use deadly violence to suppress them if he gets a second term in office. Please do not discount the importance of blocking him from doing so.

I'm sure Peck or Quinto would honor it if presented. It might even be a contractual obligation. "Wait... What's this rider about Breakfast With Spock? Is that legal?"

FARSCAPE was a show that often did a trope first in the classic style and then came at the same or similar topic further down the road only this time they grappled with the logical consequences.
