“forbidden terms”

...must be that "free speech" I keep hearing about. This is obviously a first amendment issue, right?

Right?

Pop culture is mythology. You decide what's canon.

Aside: Y'all think the Egyptians ever had arguments over which version of Horus was canon?

Threshold is a dream that Tom Paris has. It's the only way that episode makes any sense. This is headcanon, but I'm sticking with it.

I'm aware the events are referenced in Lower Decks. Tom Paris recorded the dream in his personal log which was later published as a memoir, and the dream story was taken out of context and misunderstood.

If the opening blows of a broader class war are very concerning to you, I guess you're on the wrong side.

Buy more of the perma-dye to get the spots you didn't dye because they were under your clothes. If you're going to be permanently green, go full body.

Honestly it's fine. Keep fedi niche, it's why it continues to be comfy.

I still use Pidgin, because I still have some old work related contacts who use Skype, and I'd much rather use Pidgin than keep Skype around. It will do discord too but it's a bit kludgey.

Yeah, I haven't actually sat down to watch the 1997 Titanic in a long time, for that reason. A Night to Remember exists. 1997 Titanic breaks in half, but in the wrong place, so they're both wrong about it ;)

Cameron tested this. There was room for both on the door, but only in a very specific orientation could they both stay dry. And because she was wearing more clothes than he was, even if Jack makes it out of the water, he's still hypothermic and won't survive.

Edit: It's a NatGeo doc called "Titanic: 25 years later." They're in a pool that's 56 degrees F. You can find it on streaming someplace, but here's a clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEJph0aIP-U
