They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.
queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!
It’s like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.
That’s the great thing about lifetime appointments: they don’t have to care about their opponents at all (up until the point of violence).
To save others a click:
5 appointed by George W Bush (including the chief), 4 by Donald Trump, 1 by George H W Bush, and 1 by Barack Obama.
GOP has been losing popular opinion for years, but they’ve been stacking the courts every chance they get, and now they are reaping their rewards. Fascism by judicial capture.
So, I get that there’s a feeling of relief to see justice done, and a general sentiment of “fuck the police,” but…
The tone of this response is pretty inappropriate. A man died at the hands of a police officer. Now, said police officer is found guilty of murder and denied further appeal. This best outcome is still a somber event.
Don’t be Reddit.
EDIT: Rather than respond to each reply, I’ll just add this:
To anyone claiming I’m conservative or a bootlicker: You seem to be overlooking the fact that I said “justice was done”, “fuck the police”, and called this cop a murderer.
I was just saying that a Nelson “Ha Ha” is not the right tone for this situation. It’s not like the cop tripped and faceplanted into his ice-cream cone. He (rightfully) got convicted for murder. The “Ha Ha” seems (to me) to downplay the severity of his crime. In my opinion, it makes light of Floyd’s death, as much as it revels in Chauvin’s conviction.
In closing: ACAB.
I agree, but we’d have to restructure how the House does business.
The current count of Representatives is 435. If we were to go back to old ratios at 30k, we’d have 11,300 Representatives.
We’d have to break it up into smaller, constituent houses, or something.
Yeah, imagine a small rural town trying to start their own car factory today.
“Oh, it’s going to cost $100 Million? Well shit…”
It’s weird, he doesn’t really look like a Tellarite, but he doesn’t really look like a Talaxian, either.
I will concede he looks more like a Talaxian than a Tellarite, but still, very different.
Funny enough, if you throw bricks, it counts for both.
I don’t like the implication. Riker always respected in consent.
The wizard died doing what he loved…
Being covered in piss.
Yeah, single-use plastics make sense in a medical setting. They have the added value of being sterile where you really need it.
Outside of that setting, it’s just a convenience that is costing the environment.
I thought we had voted to end it. Did I dream that?
Googling it, it looks like it never got all the way through the legislature. Ugh…
Yeah, as much as I actually loved those movies (they were the gateway drug that got me back into Star Trek after only watching random episodes on syndication), I think their window of relevance has passed. Making another one would be pointless, unless maybe if it was some crossover with Strange New Worlds. But I imagine that would confuse general audiences horribly.
Yeah, in-universe, Starfleet seems to have a real nepotism problem.
As much as I love Conan, and enjoyed Conan’s comedic style more than Ferguson’s, I feel like Craig did better interviews.
I asked the same question out loud to myself when I saw Boims in the captain seat. Best guess: since the plan was just to tow the destroyer and throw it, they knew he wouldn’t have to do much, and it’d give him a shot. Plus they might have taken his relationship with Mariner (and his rapport with the rest of the Lower Decks gang) into account. Lastly, it might have been a tactic for if the admiralty went through with court-martials. Whomever answered that hail in the captain’s seat would be in more hot water than the rest of the crew.
Glory to you… and your TPS reports.
Yeah, I’ve seen this come up a couple times.
The problem is the English language doesn’t have a word that works as well as “children” when talking about your adult sons and daughters. The technical best might be “offspring”, but it has that same weird clinical sound as referring to people as “males” or “females”. It’d be like trying to use “humans” as the inclusive replacement for “ladies and gentlemen.” (That said, “humans” has a certain comedy value in its use.)
When I did that mission, they never specified the neutral zone was there, so I operated under the assumption we were in Federation space. When the birds of pray appeared, there was no option to hail (or they didn’t respond), so I just beat them. And they attacked one at a time. Felt really cheesy, like they used Kobayashi Maru as a reference without actually replicating the test, because it also served as the tutorial.
Kobayashi Maru should have been the last mission, not the first. And it should be properly impossible.
Prediction: Starbucks resolves the issue by raising all “milk” product prices to match the most expensive option.
