Next year in non-violent protest - NO ONE PAYS THEIR GODDAM TAXES

I can dream anyway.

SNW is better than any of the other "current" live action Trek offerings but...that's a very very low bar. It has it's high points but damn some of those other decisions .....

I honestly feel that Lower Decks and (especially) Prodigy nailed what is important about Star Trek far far better.

IT's true, when you hit that 1,000,000,000 mark, you ACTUALLY just become a lizard person.

OTOH Dolly is the Dolly Lama as far as I'm concerned.
In the post-holocaust after future, we will all gather at Dolly World as the Holy Place for all the Good and Just Peoples.

That was my first thought as well. If Oregon's National Guard get deployed to defend Portland, well, this is going to get very interesting.
All too intersting

So many looking away.
So many I had faith in looking away.
It's angry making and heart breaking. All of it is.

“It was heartbreaking to watch,” said Watson. “Even if you’re not a mother, seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.”…

“Stuff was everywhere…people’s birth certificates, and papers thrown all over. Water was leaking into the hallway. It was wicked crazy.”

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated'

The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

Morphic Field Theory? Bohm. You are looking for David Bohm's stuff. (I know, I read a lot of it figuring out the metaphysics for Galaxy Black :P )
I know Sheldrake's 'the guy' but Bohm's 'implicit order' I think might appeal.

Thanks for this!
I released a new book yesterday but i've got lots more, both gaming and non-fiction, the latter more trans-specific but all my stuff is super queer and ND friendly.

Be safe out there everyone.

The internet was cut off, so I went to a far place to be able to get online. My body is exhausted and my heart is heavier than ever, and longing and fear have left me with nothing but despair. I don't ask for much just that you check on me with a message or a prayer don't ignore

If you're crying over Chuckles Kirk, you can get in line, going to hell right behind him.
It's gonna be a long line.
