Before I can condemn military forces attacking mourners at the funeral of someone said military forces murdered earlier this week, I will need to confirm that Hamas was not hiding in the coffin.

The Prime Directive is a product of that writing. I think that don't give cavemen tech weapons is one thing, but the refusal to make contact or help out is another. Perhaps it doesn't make as good storytelling, but it seems mean spirited to deny helpful technology to people that could really use it. I mean, if there was an alien organization like Starfleet irl that knew about out planet and didn't help us out with our apocalyptic predicament(s), they would be top tier ****. But I also think the Mauquis were right. https://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/actors/frank-langella-net-worth/ I would much prefer to have $5 mil in the bank instead of the very American reality of working too much for too little. The "cancelled" guys need to get some perspective.

**** it, hot take time. The Prime Directive has always been bull**** used to justify some incredibly questionable writing in regards to inaction.

He's had to recall like a quarter of all the cars Tesla ever made and mutilated some monkeys to test out a brain chip that doesn't work. There is no way in hell I'm going to sleep in anything made by a Musk company.

Color me shocked. I guess we'll have to wait until the midterms for Democrats to do nothing again and beg us to vote in 2024. The person you're talking to agrees with both of those dogwhisltes as well. Some folks care more about geopolitical power relations than they do principles and they toss in a dose of brown people bad for good measure, so when Russia targets (white) civilians it's barbarity, but when Israel targets (brown) civilians it's necessity and the fault of Hamas. Weird that some people can't be consistent and condemn the murder of civilians universally, but the real world is a very strange place.

Yeah, I think it's similar in most cities in every country that housing has increased substantially than wages. I'm not sure of the specifics though, for instance I've read that Tokyo apartments are more affordable than their comparisons in NYC or London. At any rate, it's a rough deal to be working and renting these days.- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
I can't reasonably afford to buy a house, and last time I tried it got picked up for several 10ks above asking with cash and is currently being rented out. My rent has been steadily increasing* and even making more now it's getting to be a struggle for me to keep up with. Comparatively, bad tenants is a problem I'd love to have. Green grass on the other side and all that. *While nowhere in Texas is like the Bay Area, LA, or NYC level of housing costs, wages are lower and there are no (legal) limits to how much rent can be raised. Given the influx of (relatively) rich Californians looking to cosplay cowboy here, I have a feeling it's about to get even crazier in most major Texas cities.- The All Things Political Topic - Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies.

I haven't watched much animu lately, but I will be watching the lain like thing that sounds like a drug soon. Right now it's between that, new Dexter, or finally doing the Twin Peaks rewatch and losing (what's left of) my mind.@Bartimaeus changing his mind on something is proof that soon he will join us in having trash taste. I did watch the recent Komi and honestly, it was just boring.

I don't usually do it for days, but that's a thing I usually do too. Big exception is for anything that leaves a crust, because the water doesn't soften it up enough and getting it off quick makes the job easier.- What You've Done Today - Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life
Yeah, that's real bad. Toss that thing yesterday. For stuff that sticks on pans (like animal and plant matter crust) I usually do baking soda and a brush to get the debris off and then a light wash on soapy water to clean it. For the most part this makes cleanup easy and doesn't seem to damage my cooking stuff, but you have to do the baking soda scrub fairly quickly after you're done cooking (for me, usually after I'm eating, maybe give 5 minutes). For some reason, I very rarely use the dishwasher for stuff that I don't directly eat or drink out of. I haven't run a pot or pan through the dishwasher....ever now that I think on it.
