So people just throw out potatoes instead of coring the eyes? Feels super wasteful to me…

Rewatching The Search for Spock… there is an insane amount of religion in Vulcan culture.

This is such an interesting take, because I have such a different one!

I maintain that, in his anger, in his vengeance, he was right. Being exiled to Ceti Alpha 5, when no one knew that Ceti Alpha 6 had exploded years ago and destroyed the habitability of Ceti Alpha 5 (oh my God, no one thought to check on the marooned Khan and his people in fifteen years?) means that he was a victim. And there was no justice.

I still thought of Khan and his people as charismatic and strong and intelligent- but victimized by Kirk, they were correct to seek revenge. What was done to them was not justice. It was cruel and unusual punishment. I also found it a testament to their strength that they survived for 14-and-a-half years on that hellhole.

Loved your comments. Love the different perspective!

I think it’s very mature of him to know how he works best, and not to try and compromise on that.

Can’t wait to see Haunted Chocolatier.

I’ve now achieved peak humor.

Buy buy buy!

My boyfriend asked me why I kept helping people when they don’t appreciate me, and I told him honestly that I never help more than is painless for be, but also, I made a decision about who I want to be, and I won’t let other people being assholes change that.

The one in a million person whose life is touch, who really needed it, who can live a better, happier life because of me, is worth fifty assholes. Maybe even a hundred.

I think these downvotes misunderstood what you were saying.

Because it’s clear to me what you meant was, “then why do people still care if their diamond is natural or synthetic?” Which is a fantastic question. If I ever bought a diamond, which I won’t because moissanite exists, but if I did, it would have to be synthetic.

I’m gonna make a character named Dr. Bees.

This comment got a laugh out of me. I could hear the grinding.

I really want to write an otherwise high-brow, high vocabulary novel, with the most needlessly vulgar, graphic pornography in the middle.

I absolutely heard this in their voices.

How are you all getting such amazing pictures of your cats???

The problem light is blinking.

Oh I like this one a lot!

You can still do that.

Start the conversation. That’s what we all did, and where these communities got their start.

It’s so weird to me that people are so spoiled today that they feel inconvenienced when there isn’t limitless content in their niche fields of interest being served to them on a platter every single day.

Those of us who remember the before times can tell you that the absolute best of a platform comes before that point. I’m sure it’s lovely getting your full every single second, but the best conversation, the best education, the best introspection comes when you’re allowed a few minutes between stimuli to think.

I feel like “Old woman yells at cloud” but I really feel like our younger folks who crave endless, mindless interaction, don’t know what they miss out on.

This cat is a void version of mine.

He could be the happiest, loafest boy, but he has a lot to tell you!

Turned out she was a tomboy! Who knew?

Heh. Molded.
