"Loud as a Whisper," while obviously a product of its time, holds up well.

Except where clunky writing failed him (mostly in the romance subplot with Marina Sirtis's Troi) guest star Howie Seago was brilliant as Riva.

Home with a cold/flu thing. "Loud as a Whisper," is up. Sure, there's not a lot of subtlety or subtext, but I've liked it every time I've seen it. I'm not quite there yet, but I remember the weird suddenness of Reva's chorus's deaths being about a .75 on the Yar Scale of Death Stupidity.

It feels like the premise for "The Outrageous Okona," was, "Okay, but what if Harry Mudd were weren't a malignant narcissist?"

Fun episode. Not award winning or anything, but enjoyable.

"Elementary, Dear Data," was fun. It wrapped up a little too quickly/easily, but it was what a holodeck malfunction episode should be.

Daniel Davis's TNG Moriarty walked so Robert Picardo's VOY Doctor could run.

“There is no Q slavery was immoral. You shouldn’t need a Bible to know that.”

@justinjpearson.bsky.social & McKenzie call out Reneau for forcing TN schools to teach kids the founders were religious for “historical accuracy” as Republicans downplay 🇺🇸 slavery

If you use T-Mobile and opt for satellite coverage, Elon Musk is privy to you transmitted data.

Just like voting data in the 2024 election that was sent from voting machines via Starlink.

To think there wasn't interference is naive and foolish.

The richest Americans saw their net worth soar 120% from 2017 to 2025.

The top 1% now control $55.8 trillion in assets — more than the G.D.P. of the United States and China combined.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

Difficult to emphasize just how much a generation of kids has been taught that being dishonest, superficial, and narcissistic is the pathway to attention and therefore success

Markwayne Mullin is the same dude already under scrutiny for suspicious stock trades.

And he’s supposed to run America’s national security.

• No government security experience
• No law enforcement background
• No intelligence work
• No military service
• Not even a bachelor’s degree

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)

Camp East Montana is a massive tent camp sitting on Fort Bliss military base near El Paso, Texas. It opened in August 2025 and almost immediately became the largest ICE detention facility in the entire United States holding over 2,700 people. In tents in the Texas heat.

She probably won the Electoral College, too, since every accusation Trump has ever made has really been a confession.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."

Nobody seems to be suggesting an alternative? That's clearly inaccurate.

We're spending $1 billion per day on war as millions of working people struggle to get by.

Meanwhile, America's ultra-rich have never been richer.
