Gargoyles!

Holy shit. That’s bad. There were some very poor quality studies done on whether autistic people had a worse inflammatory reaction to A1 proteins than allistic people ( https://atypicalscience.org/a1-beta-casein/ ) but they were certainly not implying that milk causes autism or that autism has a “cause” that should be avoided.

Same reason Nelix is the chef on voyager. Replicators don’t make something out of nothing.

Got it, throw bricks and insult people on social who share my values but feel powerless in the face of the capitalist juggernaut that is the US political system ✅

Has the genocide stopped yet?

Only one of us is throwing a tantrum and calling people names here.

If you have all the answers about how to solve this problem, it’s tragic that you are keeping them to yourself, while simultaneously blaming everyone else’s cowardice and incompetence for a situation we realistically have no control over.

I’m part of a group that regularly hand writes letters to representatives about issues including this one and I donate significant amounts of money to organizations that lobby the issues that are important to me, including this one. I canvas for local candidates that share my values. It’s all just farting into the wind though.

If you have the answer, please share.

So, with all this energy, what have you done?

Ok, so what should we be doing?

That’s what I’m saying. I’m just heartbroken that I’ll have to vote for someone unapologetically funding genocide with my tax money.

What’s the fucking point of democracy if I still have to vote for genocide in order to avoid the end of “democracy.”

In this case fighting for it means voting for Trump tho…? I don’t think he would have done better in this situation. Do you?

Yeah, it’s been “hold your nose and vote for the least insane” for a long time now, but more the choice is “the guy who supports genocide” or “the guy who really really supports genocide.”

Fucking two party first post the post bullshit. This is going to get Trump elected when the people who cant bear to vote for genocide stay home or vote third party.

Revenant is probably my favorite Trek novel, it’s the only one I know of that stars Jadzia.

Nothing comes up in a Google image search for it.

But like, in a yummy way?

Not enough fingers.

Being against the actions of the Israeli government doesn’t make one an antisemite.

Being against the ongoing genocide of Palestinians doesn’t make one pro terrorism.

If the US response to this conflict is making you into a republican, you are not paying attention.

Oh that’s really funny. I just assumed inking was some industry lingo I didn’t know. Either way, Mr Nelix won’t be the one doing it.

I reread this twice as “Nelix was inking it up” and was trying to figure out the joke.

I agree. I think people forget (or missed) that the Vulcans went for this logic-only lifestyle because they are such an extremely emotional race that it nearly destroyed them.

That is why they begin their emotional control/suppression/denial training basically at birth. It doesn’t come naturally to them, and as every Vulcan living among humans has pointed out to them at some point by a Vulcan living in Vulcan company: living with humans makes you an emotional mess.

They would.

That is better, I like that.
