I understand what it means, but "last mile" is a really funny term because walking a mile is apparently inconceivable to the average american

what news are you reading? I've seen outlets post like a review of Barbie and maybe an article about its box office success. It's definitely not taking over their coverage of other stuff.

It's not like this situation was unmanageable before kids had cell phones. You call the school and they relay it to the kid.

the fact that even malware developers can't write something in rust without making sure you know they wrote it in rust is hilarious to me

I love the original animated series. It's really laid back and relaxing and they get to do weirder stories. TOS would never have Kirk learning magic so he can fight in a wizard battle to save Satan.

I liked this episode, but I thought the opening Lower Decks bit was pretty unfunny. Is the actual show different? It felt like all of the characters were trying way too hard to be quirky and the jokes didn't really land for me.

I would recommend skipping TOS as a show, and reading the James Blish adaptations of it and TAS.

This seems like a crazy suggestion to me. Kirk, Spock and McCoy's onscreen chemistry is half of what makes TOS work.

it seems like the kind of thing that's obviously an out of universe design choice. it's like asking for a lore reason why the male Enterprise crew members stopped wearing eyeshadow after Kirk's five year mission.

He's effective at ruining everything in Florida, where he has Reublican supermajorities in the legislature to back him up. I'm not convinced he's actually an effective politician like McConnell.

Making new "TOS" episodes that take place during the five year mission would be cool (maybe even setting it after TOS and making a "season 4"), but I really have no interest in them just remaking episodes that already exist. It just seems like a waste of everyone's time and budget they could use to make something new.

what exactly do people who spam VOTE on every article about polls think they're contributing
