There are some Star Trek fans weirdly obsessed with “decorum” and they really fixate on how Holly Hunter sits in the captain’s chair on STARFLEET ACADEMY. One guy left a comment on the official FB whining about it and so Captain Janeway herself responded to drop the hammer

It's validating but man it sucks that this feeling like all the bad people were conspiring together was real all along.
It is kind of validating that every horrible person ever seems to be on that list.

Do I know anyone going to Uptown parades near the beginning of the route on Lundi Gras or also Rex Mardi Gras morning? I'm changing my plans a bit to help a pet sitting client Uptown with a family emergency so I won't be near home in the Quarter.

Some lady had chairs set up and was just sitting in the middle of a streetcar stop, making it hard to get off the street car without stepping into traffic.
I told her it must be nice to not have a job and just do fuck all all day.
You can stake out a spot for the parade without being an ass.

On my flight today, a chatty lady said, “I can’t go to New York with all that’s going on over there.” And I said, “What? Free child care?” And she stopped talking to me.

Pam Bondi really thinks sexual assault survivors care about the stock market
After being raped no victim thinks “I hope the Dow is up”
They think:
I hope I will be believed
I hope I’m not pregnant
I hope I’m not slut shamed
I hope my rapist goes to jail
I hope I survive this

Surprising precisely no one: Of course it was CBP doing reckless shooting at the border, using a weapon that didn’t belong to them, that caused this (deserved) freakout by the FAA.
BREAKING: The Pentagon let Customs and Border Protection use an anti-drone laser before the FAA closed El Paso airspace, AP sources say.

Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

RIP Bud Cort. My favorite movie of all time, hands down forever, is Harold and Maude. I wish we'd gotten more films for him to showcase how wildly funny, sharp, and truly singular he was. But most actors don't even get ONE performance like Harold and Maude, so that counts for 100. I love you Bud.🖤

It’s so odd to me that people don’t realize that giving up on things is fine. You will eventually be dead. It does not matter! Who cares! Let it go!
