I'm not sure how Canada feels about a foreign legion, but I'm willing to volunteer.

Note: this applies to any country the Orange Jackass threatens to invade.

But like.... Organize first.

Otherwise you're just a crazed lone gunman dead in the street.

If they all got their proper iron necktie, French revolution style, the only time they would be discussed is when you read another report that the lasting damage they caused has been repaired and the systems they tried to eradicate have been restored.

I can go to my individual comments and check the scores, but I like that I can't see any cumulative score. I'm a sucker for "number go up" games.

Lemmy isn't a competition.

Well, I'm not a primary target, but if I see someone rolling up on my street trying to force people into a vehicle against their will, I'm definitely grabbing my rifle and preventing a kidnapping.

They may not be coming for me yet, but I sure as fuck am not waiting until they do.

Honestly I think they're just waiting for people to fight back so they can justify lethal force from then on, "as a precaution"

It happens. I've definitely read a sentence, took it the wrong way, and only after rereading it later on (usually when someone responds to my comment) that I was incorrect.

I don't see anyone shitting on younger generations.

All I see is someone expressing what many in the younger generation are feeling. Like everything the older generations faced is happening again. Like the world is on fire and everyone is pretending it's fine. And they're wondering why nobody is as concerned as they are.

In other words, "WTAF is going on?!?!"

Nah, I know for a fact 2/3 of my kills were luck, and the other 1/3 is new players.

I know for a fact I'm opinionated, and don't have problems sharing them.

Please, by all means, block me if you think seeing my comments is adversely affecting you. I'd rather be ignored by someone than make their day worse (unless they're actively trying to make others miserable, but that's a separate discussion)

The fediverse has definitely gotten a little less hostile after blocking a few things.

And remember you can jump ship to another instance at any time! I've hopped a few times but for now my instance is filling my needs without much drama that I am aware of.

Kim and Torres were guests of the Ocampa, and Kess knew how to get in and out of the shielded area. The Kazon were in the area but not directly involved yet.

So by beaming her up immediately, they would have had far more time available to do thing.

Now, whether they ask the right questions quickly enough to get in and out of the caves/cracks Kess got out through, who's to say.

Either way, if I recall correctly, the kazon knew not to fuck with the Caretakers station, so while I'm sure they would eventually have tested it to see if anyone was still home, it wouldn't have been as quick.

Ultimately I believe if Neelix had been truthful, the crew would have had enough time to figure out how to send themselves back to the alpha quadrant, and possibly been smart enough to set spatial charges to blow it up soon after they left to make sure the kazon don't get their hands on it.

Ah, so you just wanted to stand on a soap box and let everyone see how virtuous and moral you are. Got it.

At this point, "university is in the US" would do it.

And with all fads, it's cyclical. But on the internet, things move quicker so instead of 20-30 years, it's more like 5-10.

Marketing really missed an opportunity for "InfiniTurd" on that one.

Oof, you must have gotten a shipment of Ferengi pencils, they can be a little.... "Eccentric"

I was gonna ask "And just how long is this pork, exactly?"

It definitely made me double-take at first because my brain tried to read "burners" at first until I realized that isn't what it said...

And I thought the torches were flags for a second, too.

Banners of books

People who exist to ban books from being read

That or there's a giant banner stretched out and made entirely of books just to the left.

I've been told I need to redo paperwork because I marked the date like 12APR2025.

I get standardization for computers, but for something a person is going to look at I feel like it's very direct, needs no explanation or interpretation. Anyone who sees it should be able to figure it out instantly.
