I used to be Catholic. Every Sunday, they performed the transubstantiation on the hosts and the wine. Every Sunday, I subjected both to analysis by one of the most sensitive chemical sensing device in the world.

Every week, it came back as Styrofoam and wine. Never once was it meat or blood.

Sometimes I think it's a backlash against what we see as stupid rules that are imposed on us for no reason. We legitimately do want to be able to dispense with the bullshit, and admire people who can.

We are talking about the Navy, right?

And yes, Iran is a bigger, better armed country, so we should use more stuff to attack them.

Assuming we aren't gong to do the sane thing and not attack them.

Might have been. But there are dozens of us.

I trust they replied "lol, no."

According to the TNG tech manual, the smooth curves of the ship makes it easier to maintain a warp field in a shape that uses less power while traveling at warp. So, not aerodynamic, but voidynamic, or something.

In this case, the enemy of my enemy is my enemy’s enemy. Nothing more.

Always has been. Sometimes my enemy's enemy and I want the same thing for a little while.

They just use more power.

The positive side effects are usually just the effects.

I'm an elder millennial. I feel like my life has spent more time on hold than otherwise. Economic crisis, plague, not-really-a-war-but-war, more economic crisis, watered down dictator. . .

Can I just die already?

ED meds are gender affirming care, aren't they? If they are gonna cut it out of military spending, cut all of it out.

Naked Prisoners (startrek.website)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by SaltSong@startrek.website to c/rimworld@lemmy.world

Is there an easier way to get clothing for a prisoner than drafting a pawn and having them strip in the cell before walking naked back to the cloths storage?

Everyone who thinks this seems to forget that they have to live through the collapse of civilization. It's not gonna be pleasant.

Fairborn Community Garden (startrek.website)

Has anyone here participated in the Fairborn Community Gardens in the past? I'm trying to get an idea of what the "normal" approach is, and what the general expectations are.

Autoplay Videos (startrek.website)

New to this whole Lemmy platform, but I'm liking it.

One problem I'm having is auto-play videos when I open some discussions. Not in the comments, but the post itself starts playing.

I'll skip my usual rant about what I think should be done to whoever decided to make that a feature, and just ask how to turn it off. I have "auto expand media" unchecked in my lemmy settings.

I appreciate any advice.
