@JamesTi76302673 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner Yeah, I get it. Folks get locked in a negative feedback loop. It ruins things for everyone. Especially them.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@jasonllevin Oh, and no immunity for these rules. Any state or federal prosecutor can submit them to a grand jury for indictment. If they are convicted, they are removed from office, go to jail, and are banned from all public office forever. There is no statute of limitations.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@jasonllevin Elected federal officials and the cabinet should be banned from any form of income beside their salary.

They must divest themselves of all business ventures and cannot trade stocks while in office.

They get paid for a year after leaving, the stock rules apply during that time.

@bestofStarTrek Both. Duh.

I’m not picking just one well written and interesting character. I want as many as I can get.

@Matt_Pinner Because we are just smart enough to understand nuclear power but too stupid to use it for energy, preferring it for bombs instead.

That and we are panicky, trigger happy, and have a tendency to hate what isn’t like us.

@ohhanxiety 1. I would go back to bed, because this would never happen.
2. This would never happen.

@carlpeachey8 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner My least favorite part for sure. I really liked how Enterprise and DS9 introduced grounded threats based on internally consistent rules.

It made it feel real. Hoping that whatever comes next will take a page from that book, at least as far as the science stuff goes.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@carlpeachey8 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner Thank goodness you didn’t say something about how it’s “woke”. That old chestnut is pretty tired. Frankly, it doesn’t leverage any real criticism of the shows.

As far as lore breaking I think Discovery was the worst. They played fast and loose with the science.

@oelma__ My wife would be really mad if I didn’t reject her.

@ohhanxiety Constitutional democracy?

@JohnOleske @CuriosityonX Dammit! This one is the best. I can’t even keep reading now.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@sickdotdev React, Angular, and most other front end frameworks are hilariously overbuilt when compared to native browser alternatives.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@icyveins Honestly, the story has been fine. I wish it was a bit more filled out.

I do think they are doing MUCH better with the lore beats. Lots of fun stuff getting teed up.

Time will tell if they do something good with it.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@oku_yungx I usually go with, “That must be exhausting.”

It makes their hate about them, not about you.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@SenRonJohnson @realDonaldTrump Let me be clear. ALL OF THEM SHOULD HAVE GONE TO CONGRESS!!!

One of your main jobs is to keep presidential power in check.

DO YOUR JOB.

Oh wait, you are in congress. You think your job is to fight the other guys, not help people.

Again, DO YOUR JOB, FOR US!!!

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@ThatEricAlper Full marks. This is funny as hell. Nikki wins.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@the_culturist_ Not sure what we are celebrating here. Seems like nothing? Trumps ego? I’m confused.

That said, I 100% behind this IF the whole thing is less than three feet tall and placed just outside a DC public bathroom.

The plaque should read, “10/10 would poop again.”

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@carlpeachey8 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner With Discovery, the spore drive, the burn, and the constant need to have a world ending, epic battle with whatever… the plots got a bit out of hand.

I personally found Academy a bit more grounded, but that’s just me.

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@carlpeachey8 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner Again, that’s fair. You are not obligated to like it.

What specifically didn’t you like?

[Joe Mills @blargism]

@carlpeachey8 @GarysLiquors @WilliamShatner Agree to disagree. I enjoyed most of it.
