Wait, so let me get this straight - The TERFs don't want trans-women using women's bathrooms because they feel unsafe with people they believe can easily overpower a woman and thus makes the women's bathroom an unsafe space, and so to preserve the safe space and keep trans-women from using the women's bathroom, their solution is to <checks notes> invite armed men into those very same bathrooms...? And that will make them feel safe? Sheesh, with logic like that...- The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Re-reruns (it's always summer somewhere)

My understanding is that the new Borg Queen was for an alternative future, not the TNG present (haven't watched Picard S.2 or S.3) due to the time travel shenanigans of S.2- Cinema and Movie Thread: flickering images

I'd love ORDER OF THE BLACK EAGLE to get released. In other news..- The TV and Streaming Thread: Summer Re-reruns (it's always summer somewhere)
Rings are like mini-wheels and Time is the great leveler, so could be seen as the greatest power. They should call it Wheels of Rings of the Power of Time As an aside, officially Rings of Power was renewed for 8 episodes for Season 2. It should be noted that Season 2 was ordered before season 1 ever aired, so the idea that Amazon would lower the episode count due to how S1 performed is silly, given that they were filming S2 while S1 was airing, IIRC.- Obituary thread

I still don't get why they entered it into the fair in the first place if their kid (har-har) was attached to the other kid (har-de-har-har) in the first place. I also don't get why the fair doesn't have a non-auction / slaughter showing category given that not all livestock is bred for slaughter. That said, I've not been to a lot of fairs of this kind, so not really sure what the norm is either.- Youtube recommendations, let's beat the algorithm
