A great actress and a kind woman. When I was little, by mother and I used to see her at our local Pioneer Chicken picking up food for her grandmother, who lived in the area. She was always open to a chat while in line, and gave autographs too. Down to earth. She made my mom laugh.

RIP Ms. Keaton.

Mom and I met her infrequently, but more than once, at the Pioneer Chicken on Fig and 52.

I read
"fuckboy" and "dog" and "slow"

and I naturally assumed you were talking about 'Astronaut' Katy Perry. 😅

These results are also 100% the fault of, and the choice of, over 90 million americans who didn't bother to vote at all in 2024 ... and the 75.5 million neo-nazi voters in the US who voted for Cheeto.

Not to mention the 1-2 million who voted for 3rd party candidates.

Congratulations! #CDC #morons

Well, nice to meet you. We could use more Trek fans like you in this day and age ... you've seen what the Trek "fanbase" looks like these days, right? :P

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 20h

Good for you!

I know a lot of people are adverse to confrontation, or putting people in their place ... but to me, being silent is giving tacit approval that bigotry is OK, and giving tacit approval is the same as being complicit.

The sets are all so ... antiseptic looking, too. Like AI is the only architect or furnisher anymore.

All I thought when I saw this was, "Wow Holly Hunter is in a really bad fan remake of Star Trek."

It's too much Discovery and not enough Deep Space Nine or even TNG for my liking. :)

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 20h

More NuTrek. :|

You all have fun; I'll keep enjoying my old DVDs of the stuff that came before. Good luck w/ future price increases, too.

I would have just said,

"No stranger on earth cares at all about your opinions, and no stranger wants to hear what you think, unless they ask you."

Seems to me investing in some 24-hour security and cameras -- a fraction of the bridge's total cost -- would have solved this problem.

But that would require the government to budget and think ahead. C'est la vie.

Isn't it more likely there's no Spirit Halloween because all of the highly flammable costumes sold by that store were made in China? And the tariffs that 69% of the voting electorate wanted & supported ... have led to a reduction in such items being shipped?

I think Don's answer is correct.
Almost all voters in LA will ask, "Who?" and then shrug and then vote for someone else.

He was a non-entity at LAUSD who changed nothing and made nothing better. Probably will have multiple unions against him from Day 1.

😂😂

I'm sure there's plenty enough room here. They can compete with the Protestant-led ku klux klan's domestic terrorism

and the rampant pedophilia going on in the catholic church

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 21h

Believe it.

The military Gestapo here are willing participants in their illegal actions, and their disappearing and killing people.

It's so easy for these people to post lies on the internet.

They prefer a narrative where it's them against the world -- never mind that it's not based in reality. It's about the story that's easiest to tell for the people complaining.

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 21h

I agree

That one day of rain is UNACCEPTABLE

Thanks mr skeltal

D&D 5E game:

My bard, Flinn, finally met one of the two new party members: a Tabaxi ranger named Mittens. They got a serious upgrade in musical instruments: Flinn has a trumpet that does force-based damage; Mittens a drum that bolsters all force damage within 20'!

Trumpet's name is "Satchmo".

I used to run a text-based Star Trek simulation online for many years. I don't know if others agree, but I've always felt like the name of the ship can be an indicator of its personality -- or of the crew's. But either way, it should reflect something, and you can build upon that.

its funny how when bsky staff get backlash they always retreat to find the users who coddle them from the meanies demanding fair treatment, legal clarity, protection from bigots, or that they just stop being a dick

jay following transphobes and banning link for pointing it out for example

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 1d

Joke’s on you:

New Community Managers:

JK Rowling
Candace Owens
Andrew Tate
Nick Fuentes
Kristin Chenoweth

Pally @angelespaladin.bsky.social · 1d

Nope
Jay can ban you at a higher level like what happened to Link from Blacksky

and then you’re banned EVERYWHERE
