I find it super weird that the only time we see any in-universe ads (not counting Lower Decks) it’s:
A dead planet where an arms dealer used to operate and their holographic sales program was still running
A single TV ad made by Quark on DS9 (that he illegally broadcast by hacking the communications system or something)
I would think that every Ferengi ship would just be a giant holographic billboard for Ferengi products and services. We even see Ferenginar a few times and there are no ads anywhere. Not even in the FCA building. But they do make a point of showing off how you have to pay for everything; including visiting a person’s home.
“Welcome to our home. Place your imprint on the legal waivers and deposit your admission fee in the box by the door. Remember, my house is my house as are its contents.”
The human project. The collective species. Where we are going as a whole. And having faith that it will take steps toward a better future instead of what is currently going on.
I remember a time during the height of PHPBB forums when they were called image macros and most of them were designed with the implicit purpose of triggering people. That’s where things like this bad boy came from:
Oh I think I know that one. Based on the previous comment, I thought it got sent into overdrive and was going hella fast that it may as well be a chainsaw lol
Seriously, I don’t even know anymore what’s true with moss.
Grew up with that saying “moss grows heaviest on the north side of a tree” and then maybe in high school or in my early 20’s (there was definitely a sizeable period where tons of stuff I grew up being taught was being “um actually’d” as historians or scientists learned more) it was debunked.
But naturalists and park rangers and shit still say it’s semi true; moss does grow heavier to the north on particular trees, and other specific conditions. Which is just more confusing. 😵💫
