Despair is a weapon of the enemy. I have no use for it.

Billionaires will always put profit over principles. Always. That's how they get to be billionaires. There is no profit in turning Trek into Nazi propaganda: the only audience for Trek would evaporate overnight and it'd hurt their bottom line

CNN is fucked but Trek will likely be okay.

I can't pick one so I'm going to cheat.

For sheer emotional impact: Cirroc Lofton being back in Trek then hearing Avery's voice again.

For authentic Trek morality: In Vox Excelso generally and especially Jay'den's line about "it is not for the Federation to tell Klingons who we are"

Trump has threatened other NATO members and repeatedly talks about stealing their territory.

NATO is dead and Trump killed it. Really not sure why you're bringing the Greens into it.

Vera Wylde did a good video recently talking about the takeover and how it's a bad deal generally, financially and for the American public generally, but probably doesn't mean anything for Star Trek. The Ellisons haven't shown themselves to be interventionist. They'll probably leave the shows alone.

He's not a transphobe. He just regularly meets with transphobic groups and individuals, reguritates their talking points and puts in place policies that they want, policies that actively harm trans people.

Sure James, sure.

Probably paid for by the exact same organisation.

That ship sailed a long time ago. At least as far back as when the BBC published an article describing an anti-trans conspiracy theory quoting a cis female rapist.

They are openly, institutionally transphobic. They are actively pushing for the genocide of trans people.

Baha'i is also banned in Saudi but that didn't stop him from taking Crown Prince Bonesaw's blood money.

I remember warning him on Twitter after he shared Matt Walsh's nonsense and he blew it off. They're so predictable.

Wait, is this the fella who killed a hedgehog with a hammer and ate it?!

"any more than it needs to become a pale imitation of Nigel Farage and Reform"

And yet that's all Labour is at the moment. It's why you're losing: why would people vote for diet fascism when they can have the full-fat version?

Creators of plagiarism machine that regurgitates the words of millions of nerdy and neurodiverse Internet users surprised to see it regurgitating expressions of anxiety.

It's brazen treason. He's colluding with the demented and despotic head of an unfriendly government in a way that harms the UK.

People have had their heads put on spikes for less.

I mean, equally as likely Wes could have picked it up from Mandelson. Y'know, the guy Wes claims not to be that close to whilst there are pictures of him and Wes' mum together.

With everything elder millennials have seen, why does this person think it's even possible to bully us?

Mean words - that's cute. Come back to me when you've can throw three once-in-a-generation recessions in a decade at us.

Oh god, it's me.

Sending this to my foster dad & former English teacher.

Also, gender falls under psychology which is a science.

Gender isn't binary. Non-binary, agender, genderfluid and genderqueer people all exist.

Starmer could guarantee he makes it to the end of this Parliament by cancelling Trump's state visit. Easily the most popular and unifying thing he could do.

You were saying?

This was something I saw when I was out knocking on doors during Corbyn's two elections. That he was accused of anti-semitism almost never came up: it was his pro-Brexit stance and his general inability to lead his way out of a wet paper bag.

That depends. Self-righteous arseholes are pretty compressible.

It's wild that Americans still think they're living in a democracy.

Maybe - maybe - when Trump stops breathing they might get their democracy back but until then the rules simply do not matter because there's no-one who can or will enforce them

So, based on past performances that's a couple of dozen voters. Spencer won by over 5,000 votes.

To stand for election in the UK you have to provide a deposit that gets refunded if you achieve over a certain percentage of the vote - 5% I think.

It's intended to dissuade candidates who don't have genuine local support. For one of the major parties to lose their deposit is rare & embarrassing

Happy birthday young pup. May your year be full of joy, adventure and shenanigans.
