I saw the headline, my brain went “so he’s being held in contempt, as would any other person refusing to answer a question, right?”
Of course, I already knew the answer.
Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.
Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.
Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

People in these comments act like the computer will just stop working.
If you mean the cheap white/green plastic injection molded chairs? I’ve never had one break on me. That’s an insult to the chair.
If you mean the shitty things sporting goods stores keep in their giant bins as soon as you walk in the door during spring? Yeah that tracks. Although I’ve had some that require fancy slides and buttons to collapse, thus making them harder to fold than this wet lump of shit.
You first.
But seriously, it gets annoying, but at the same time it’s the biggest scam on the fediverse right now that I know of. So I feel like a little visibility once in awhile (not 6 times a day) that lets people know about it is fine.
To anyone who knows: is there a way to filter out usernames containing that name? Like if I could block dms from my chosen instance, that’d be great. I’ve been getting 2-3 a week.
I’ve been constantly reminding my in-laws that they are proudly wearing “the mark” on their foreheads.
I’m not religious but it’s hilarious to me how many things point to him being their antichrist, but they’re plowing headfirst into it anyway.
Exactly what I was thinking.
When you’re cut off from any help, you ARE your own help. Don’t wait for something unthinkable to happen, this person has made it clear they don’t respect you or boundaries, and have made threats.
It’s 9v1, if you’re scared just wait until they’re asleep. Kick them out the door, lock it, and they can try walking their happy ass back to civilization. from Antarctica
Don’t bother looking for a body.
My wife bought a bunch of books to keep herself occupied at work
She wasn’t able to choose a book to read next and ended up having a mild anxiety attack.
So I made a chart of books, gave her a d20, and once she finishes one series she rolls the die and reads whichever book she rolled, or rerolls if needed.
Shit like this is why I donate to Wikipedia.
Fuck off and die, nazi scum.
Well, he’s not in prison for treason or anything related to classified documents being mishandled, soooooooo…
Rule of law means nothing in the US anymore unless you’re poor. If it mattered, we would have had different presidential candidates from the start.
If anyone still cares in the government, none of them care enough to actually do anything but stand by and watch. Maybe give a half-hearted “yeah way to take a stand” after the fact when someone gets dragged out of the room by the fascists.
Excellent domain name for your instance, by the way. Absolutely horrifying in just the right way.
almost complete immunity to any consequences for their actions.
legal immunity.
Fingers crossed more people wake the fuck up that nobody is coming to step in and save us, we have to do it ourselves.
We used to know how to fight dictators and fascism, but apparently all we can do now is protest, quietly, in our government mandated protest spot, miles away from anyone who can hear or see us. Anything else just wouldn’t be proper.
This will be much less funny when it’s the black bag squad roaming around in unmarked vans kidnapping people for not having Trump’s mark on them.
I think you hit the nail on the head with that “you just read the title” and now they’re mad for being called out.
Embarrassment can cause people to lash out in irrational ways.
I can tell you exactly how much every single one of those things is worth once their mansions are burned to the ground.
Yep. Yay murica
If I didn’t live paycheck to paycheck, sure.
Why do we need to wait to know that violence against fascists is the appropriate response?
This sort of thinking makes me “sound like a teenager” because I’m “trying to be Edgy”
Lol no, anyone who genuinely thinks violence will not be needed because we will simply vote soon and it’ll all be over is either sticking their head in the sand, naive as fuck, or their lifestyle depends on things continuing as they are and stand to benefit from it.
Like holy shit go to the 1800s and tell all the slaves if they want real change they need to keep their heads down and quietly protest in the back where nobody can see them. Similar vibes.
if I go jobless.
LMAO I’m from the American Midwest and I HAVE a job and can’t afford a serious medical illness.
I broke a tooth in November and I still can’t afford to get it fixed.
They had to go to reddit to get the screenshot. That is traffic. Not to mention all the people who see this post and the hop in over to leave a comment or read others.
Don’t give them traffic, don’t go there for the screenshot.
If you honestly think this isn’t giving them traffic, you’re ignorant or naive.
That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“
Luckily this only works for two year iods and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.
Which is who is in charge of a lot of places, but you’d think normal people would never listen for a second.
“just doing my job” isn’t really relevant when your job is literally destroying democracy to assist a fascist neo-nazi regime
Yes, quitting “in protest” is an option, but why do that when you can just collect a paycheck and be a shitty as possible at your job until you get fired?
“oh sure thing boss I’ll get right on this deletion thing” 6 days of fucking around on the fediverse later, websites still unchanged “oh yeah I’m working on it, top priority!”
I get fear of retribution if they figure out you’re doing it on purpose to sabotage efforts but like… How many people are actually bothering?
I can’t imagine someone in the firing squad trying to say “I was just doing my job”, it’s not the same thing as the guy working in the lunchroom. The only difference in my opinion is the firing squad kills people and the guy at the computer kills information, democracy, morality, common sense etc…
You can’t say you were just doing your job when your job is “destroy this information”
Yes, it’s “just a small part” but even the Great Wall of China is made of smaller bricks/slabs. The whole can’t exist without the separate pieces.
I’m a little rambly, apologies. I hope I’ve made a coherent point.
