It is criminal that we have not revisited Jurati-Borg Queen's reformed Borg cause it is absolutely revolutionary and very Star Trek.

I really want to see the stories. So many possibilities

This is why I say there are no aliens in sci fi, everything is either Asian, Jewish, autistic or Soviet Union

I know they're not gone but yeah 💔

We only didn't exist cause RICK BERMAN didn't wanna! The actors who play Bashir and Garak were all over the idea!

The exhaustion of having to prove you exist before you can even argue for being seen is its own kind of violence. You shouldn't have to make this case. I'm sorry you're still making it.

imagine every queer and trans person leaving a review on every comic, movie, and tv show that says how forced it feels that it’s so full of cishet characters

i m a g i n e

You know what’s starting to feel a little forced? Myopic worldviews like this

This story also felt like it was written in today's world and not when Voyager actually ended. I think it's totally in the spirit of Star Trek to include groups that feel marginalized or unaccepted by many in today's world, and show how in a utopian future we've moved past that and they are a part of every day life and accepted like everyone else, but with three instances all crammed into the end of the comic, it felt a bit forced. Then again, if you

can we stop pretending that because you didn’t see queer and trans people on tv in the 1990s that we therefore didn’t *exist* in the 1990s? this is why representation matters!

also v telling that us existing in a story is “forced,” but intentionally excluding us from stories… isn’t

i’m so tired

The U.S. Senate must be clear: no war with Iran.

if you think these kinds of ultra harmful media tropes about trans women aren’t part of the political violence being enacted on trans people right now…

i have some news for you

Jewish Federations of North America pray for the success of the joint United States and Israeli actions in Iran and the safety of the brave fighters of the United States Armed Forces and the Israel Defense Forces carrying them out. We are closely monitoring events on the ground and communicating with our colleagues and partners in Israel. "All security protocols in North America should be fully observed. May this moment bring a renewed understanding of our shared responsibility for the future of the Jewish people and the free world," said Jewish Federations of North America President and CEO Eric Fingerhut.

@jfederations.bsky.social has endorsed the illegal attack on iran, in violation of article i of the u.s. constitution, on behalf of the american jewish community, without our consent

leading the charge against antisemitism by endorsing the criminal actions of a deeply unpopular president in pursuit of a war deeply unpopular with the american people on behalf of a country that interferes in u.s. elections in support of right-wing extremists

only 21% of voters support attacking iran. i'll remind you that jewish support of the iran nuclear deal far outpaced that of non-jews. which would suggest to me that american jews are likely not as enthusiastic for this war as our establishment institutions would like everyone to believe

Love that this is nearly 7 years old and is just as spot on as ever

I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.

I personally don't refer to the dead in past tense either. Especially given my dad and my two sweet kitty children are among them

@RepJeffries on X: Donald Trump promised to keep America out of costly and endless foreign wars. He is now doing the exact opposite in the Middle East. Congress must vote on a War Powers resolution immediately. 28 Feb 26

While Republicans fully support Trump's war with Iran, Democratic leaders do not oppose it. There is no effective opposition.

Hakeem Jeffries is merely demanding that the administration "must explain itself to the American people and Congress" and "provide an ironclad justification."

You can read the United States as easily as you can a Dick and Jane primer.

I will say again, the core strategy of fascism is to channel popular anxiety/anger into violence against the Other.

And yet these chuds can't be bothered to do the actual channeling. No consent manufacture, they think they can do the "fun" part (violence) and not bother with the marketing.

RoboCop

No one should be using ChatGPT or partnering with OpenAI for anything.

what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"

What OpenAI just agreed to is positively horrifying, on an unimaginable scale actually

Imagine the conclusion you would draw if you came out of a coma to see we’re at war again and the East Wing of the White House is rubble.

OCASIO-CORTEZ STATEMENT ON TRUMP'S COMBAT OPERATIONS IN IRAN "The American people are once again dragged into a war they did not want by a president who does not care about the long-term consequences of his actions. This war is unlawful. It is unnecessary. And it will be catastrophic. "Just this week, Iran and the United States were negotiating key measures that could have staved off war. The President walked away from these discussions and chose war instead.President Trump flippantly acknowledged the possibility of American casualties, stating "that often happens in war.' "Mr. President: this was not an inevitability. This is a deliberate choice of aggression when diplomacy and security were within reach. Stop lying to the American people. "Violence begets violence. We learned this lesson in Iraq. We learned this lesson in Afghanistan. And we are about to learn it again in Iran. Bombs have yet to create enduring democracies in the region and this will be no different. "In moments of war, our Constitution is unambiguous: Congress authorizes war. The President does not. I will do my part to uphold our Constitution by voting YES on Representatives Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie's War Powers Resolution. Every member of Congress must join us in rejecting this aimless war.

My statement on President Trump’s combat operations in Iran⬇️

It’s worth emphasizing that the Supreme Court has propped up this presidential lawlessness.

When Congress enacted limits on presidential power in 1973, it included an enforcement provision. If the president said there’s an “emergency from attack” and Congress disagreed, it could order troops home.

Perfect.

Trump Officials Attended a Summit of Election Deniers Who Want the President to Take Over the Midterms The meeting’s participants included Kurt Olsen, a White House lawyer charged with reinvestigating the 2020 election, and Heather Honey, the Department of Homeland Security official in charge of electi...

Maybe we should stop with the cute name "election deniers" and call them what they are: insurrectionists attempting to overthrow the American system of government. They are going to end the great American experiment.

the war is not "aimless." It is corrupt, unjust and immoral.
