If voyager went sublight they could time dilate themselves into the future. Idk why I just realized this.

Eh jk I guess they’re too far away anyway. Any Earth they would recognize is gone.

I named my cat Mariner because of the character. She’s actually my favorite star trek character of all time.

If you have ever said “Master Slave” architecture you are a racist and every single Black person in earshot had a panic attack. At least, that’s what we’re led to believe.

You absolutely must watch this episode https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Measure_of_a_Man_(Star_Trek:_The_Next_Generation) the entire premise is that Picard provides a legal defense for the personhood of Data. The episode is literally a court case and it is one of the most well received episodes.

I think your slavery analogy holds. I don’t think the Federation believes Data can be a slave because they don’t believe he is sentient. But they do pick and choose how to apply their legal code to Data.

Data broke himself out of the government lab because he hadn’t consented to be experimented upon and he believed his detention was unlawful.

The Federation arrested him because he is their legal property and by him leaving he stole highly sensitive government technology.

Fuck the Federation. I stan for the true leader of the Alpha and Beta quadrants, >!the Grand Nagus!<.

Oh man I don’t even read this comic but I knew the small green one was a lesbian!

Damn what the actual fuck that is a good idea why don’t they serve Turkish and Israeli coffee out of these racktaccino mugs?

I needed this.

• It’s much harder to get a job in tech as a man, because companies try to meet a gender quota despite most applicants being men.

I’ve worked at woke companies who fought tooth and nail to say that they didn’t give women special preference in interviews. You can’t deny statistics, though. If you have 40% women engineers but only 10% of applicants are women then of course it’s easier.

Of course they did. Why are you even asking?

Dude… I hate Trump too but you’re blinded by your own emotions.

Yeah it’s actually insane that the dude is accusing someone else of spreading misinformation and he’s covering up Syria and Libya. Lmao and people say this community is unbiased…

Obama involved us in Syria and supported the Saudis bombing Yemen.

Clinton got involved in the Balkans.

Reagan funded rebel groups in South America.

Carter… Actually idk anything this far back.

You should listen to Noam Chomsky. He’s very very liberal and has some good criticisms of the US involvement overseas. I don’t agree with everything he says but it’s worth listening to.
