  • It took some time to find its voice but when it did it became so amazing. You’re right there won’t ever be something like it. DS9 was sophisticated and nuanced.

    Just compare it to modern Star Trek. In DS9 when the characters learn about Section 31 it’s a multi episode story and several characters almost go crazy from the realisation of what that actually means for the Federation.

    In Discovery, everyone knows about Section 31. It’s a bunch of special ops badasses that interfere in sovereign societies’ politics and that’s A okay.












  • give confused children chemical castration drugs or it’s literally genocide

    You fucking idiots. Nobody gave a shit. You were almost completely accepted in society. But then you had to go after people’s kids. And as you alienated the normies with puberty blockers and an ever increasing catalog of “genders” you’re also alienating LGB people with the whole transbian shitshow and with erasing us from our own history.

    Never has a social movement shot itself in the foot so spectacularly and so quickly than trans rights activism.

    In 10 years time there will be no such thing as paediatric gender transition. But there will be a lot of animosity toward Ts. None of it unearned.


  • I’ve been thinking about this and it seems developed and developing countries have some kind of an ideological thing against ectoparasitic medications. There’s a common delusion that stuff like lice, fleas, bedbugs, etc, are very rare because everything and everyone is so clean these days.

    But it’s not really true. All these parasites circulate, especially now that people travel so much for business and pleasure. Also, none of these parasites really care how clean your body and your house are, all they “care” about is drinking your blood.

    I really think if we could get over this wrong idea, and we could start actual government-funded research into effective and safe ectoparasitic drugs for human use, we’d stand a much better chance at ending bedgbugs and other stuff once for all. Environmental treatments have been proven ineffective time and time again. They work for a while and then the bugs develop resistance. We need a way to make our blood unpalatable to them.
