Hmmm perhaps but where is the financial incentive?

Brian Bonsall as Alexander in Star Trek The Next Generation.
The role was poorly thought out and written, that's not his fault, but the kid always looked wildly uncomfortable in the loaf and couldn't act at all.
Leaving the coasts somehow sets you up for experiencing overt antisemitism. In Arizona, I was genuinely asked if matzo contains the blood of Christian children and I was expected to pay most of the time since "He's a Jew, he's got plenty". In NOLA I was asked to leave a bar by patrons with swastika tattoos. In Colorado, at a conference (they were from NC, I picked up a "fan" who wanted to shout Nazi slogans and do the salute around me after they overheard me speaking Yiddish.
I'm so sorry you were attacked in NOLA, it's absurd that we have to put up with this shit. I truly hope we can be free from this stupidity one day.
America is fucked up.
The second guy is way braver to put themselves out there like that, you go dude, enjoy yourself
I woulda thought that No Man's Sky fans would be very much emotionally prepared for the idea of delays to polish up a product properly before launch
Ain't payin no $80 for no game
Gotta remember that AI isn't occasionally hallucinating and often recalling information, it's never recalling information, it's always hallucinating, just that we say we like some of the hallucinations, so it does those more often.
Actually this is pretty goofy, isn't it? "Oh you can look at these tools for murder and destruction, but not those? Those are currently being dropped on civilians and kids, these merely have the potential to be dropped on them.
Like fuck Israel, but I'm not gonna pretend they invented bombing innocents.
I hosted a German exchange student in 2006. She, along with the other Germans, were aghast when they saw us all stand for the pledge to the flag in homeroom every morning. They explained that they were (rightly) taught that this kind of behavior is the precursor to horrible, horrible things.
Me and the bf say "those are bedroom words"
Partly in jest, but while some could argue the slurs have been somewhat reclaimed, some people are understandably bothered by them being used casually and might have traumas about them being used against them. Soo I avoid using it without knowing how my current company feels about it.
Star Trek has always struggled with child actors, but I think Bonsall was really just too young to handle the role. In part, I think the writers realized this and tried to cut him out, but this lead to the issue of making Worf look like a horrible father, so they bring him back and repeat.
He was a child so I can't put any blame on Bonsall, but I truly think it was a serious mistake to cast him for that.
