Zink,

Nah I don’t really drink. Let me go hit my vape pen or pop an edible real quick. It brings me physical comfort and mental happiness.

Drunks after they finish their fist fight: “Eww get out of here, druggie!”

Zink,

I remember thinking they were so neat.

And now in middle age I’m wearing what is essentially a full blown smart phone on my wrist.

So here we are in the future. I have no flying cars but I have my calculator watch and startrek/dick-tracy super combo device, damn it!

Zink,

I haven’t played VR for a couple years, but I played hundreds of hours of it in the 2018-2020 time frame. It has a long way to go but it’s already amazing too.

Zink,

There’s also the episode where the three Ferengi go back in time to (I think) the Roswell incident in mid 20th century USA.

Quark is repeatedly appalled at the stuff the hu-mons are doing to hurt themselves and destroy the planet. Smoking and testing nuclear fission bombs come to mind.

Zink,

I think he is the one character on DS9 where as soon as I see him, I think aw yeah this will be a fun scene.

Zink,

That stinks. I could see him being treated very nicely around here, but maybe the same jackasses would just follow him.

Zink,

America is essentially the center of the universe, so to exclude it from a photo of earth is pretty much an overt hostile act. A hostile act towards the people with the F-22s.

Source: am American, have to deal with other Americans that are less aware of the world.

Zink,

I guess 57:57 is the same vision as 20:20! It’s just a ratio of your eyes vs good ones.

Zink,

She has some “brb using imagination since no pics” energy in that second frame.

Zink,

Talk shit on FOSS, by comparing it to communism like it’s a bad thing, on Lemmy.

Now there’s a message this place will love, lol.

Zink,

Just the mental image of this is beautiful.

Zink,

How can I not upvote a YTMND link?

Zink,

Oh that’s interesting trivia!

scrolls down to Chakotay’s picture

*glances up to check community the post is from *

Damn it risa, you got me again!

Please don’t stop.

Zink,

I think there’s some high quality Borg potential here where they are assimilating existing memes.

Or maybe it’s a competition where the definitely human posters have to trekkify as many memes as they can before the Borg meme squad assimilates them.

Zink,

Yeah there’s there tragic undertone to the whole thing as well. It showed the underclass actually standing up for themselves rather than fighting to keep inequality in place.

Zink,

When I read the regular news, I still have to come here to see the meme spin on current events.

Zink,

I am absolutely looking forward to it! I have been enjoying this rewatch much more than I remember liking the show years ago.

I’m at this sweet spot where I know the broad strokes but don’t remember all the details because it’s been a long time. I can anticipate stuff and see pieces falling into place, but I still get surprises here and there.

Zink,

I’m in the middle of a DS9 rewatch and I was unable to quiet his voice in my head!

Zink,

I still like having a console strictly for games, but not for media stuff. Plus since it’s an Xbox, you can subscribe to Game Pass and treat every game as a rental.

That doesn’t do anything to help game preservation though, which sucks. But between the sheer volume of games and the “every game is a rental” attitude, I treat new games as a one-time experience that I probably won’t care about returning to.

Fortunately though, the games I care most about having access to forever are easily backed up and can be played with an emulator if necessary.

Zink,

I have set both short and long swipe right to be upvote in my favorite clients (Memmy, Voyager). That way I can rapid fire the upvotes on a discussion I like.

If I feel compelled to get off my ass and downvote something, it’s always two clicks away in the menu.

Zink,

My guess is yes. Many consider it the best Star Trek. I think I agree and I’m not even to the best parts yet.

The general look & feel of it is closest to TNG, if you’ve seen much of that. It’s not as campy as the original, but you get a few moments of “look at that actor on that obvious sound stage set pretending to be an alien, lol” moments. But DS9 has more long plot arcs. I am loving the cast of characters more than I remember too.

Zink,

I almost had to come back and reply to myself "and now she’s throwing herself at him, of course.”

Zink,

Some of the meme gods of !risa will grace other communities with their fire hose of content.

Zink,

100% true. 0% regrets.

I also react differently to simple things like hugs, drawings, or snacks delivered via faceless corporation versus a child I love.
