Definitely boiled, looks identical to the chicken my coworker brought in once. She boiled every piece of meat within an inch of its life because she didn’t know how to prepare it otherwise.
TBH, O’brien’s been on the Enterprise long enough to know that when weird, seemingly powerful creatures start talking to you, you should be very, very careful. Even if they present themselves as storybook characters.
Don’t forget that he deliberately slow-walked any response to the AIDS crisis…until his friend Rock Hudson contracted it. Then it was all-hands-on-deck.
His lawyers have run out pretty much every option to delay trials, although several judges have seemed pretty damn complicit as well. I get wanting to make sure the case is as airtight as possible, but…the people they’re worried about pissing off with a case that isn’t entirely formed, were just going to be pissed off anyway.
As far as I know, Wolverine would survive this. He might not be conscious until he reenters an atmosphere conducive to human life, but the Hulk has survived being thrown into space many times.
More specifically, we don’t really teach source analysis in a lot of schools anymore. I’ve run into college students who have no idea of how to discern that a source is bullshit - especially if the site or source looks well-polished and sounds like it knows what it’s talking about. Even a lot of Q people have figured out that the best way to draw people in is to look and sound professional, not just ranting into a camera in your truck cabin - you need a nice backdrop, and probably a polo shirt at minimum.
From what I understand, the bigger issue was that the producers thought the networks would get cagey if they went any further with queer representation. You must sadly remember that this was the 90s - not even ten years since a White House press secretary had openly laughed in a press conference about gay people dying of AIDS.
Because for a shocking amount of people, this is “manly”. Compromising and trying to get along with other people is WRONG and BAD and you should get angry when you don’t get your way.
Parents do here as well, generally speaking. Guess how well that’s enforced? Moreover, these kids who get kicked out often would face persecution, abuse, or possibly even death if they had to go back, state-enforced or not.
