There's been speculation over whether he's a Vulcan or a Romulan, but I think this description points to him being a Vulcan who rejects Surak's teachings.

This might be the first confirmation that she is, in fact, Deltan. Seems like an asset for spy shit.

"Nightclub owner" is pretty far from where I expected her to land after "Terra Firma." It's kind of funny that they describe her as "unable to return to the Terran Empire," when that is something she decidely did not want to do by the end.

Why do they have basic attributes of fictional characters? Tough to say...

Precision is important.

Totally fair. And like I said, the convention is already messed up, so anything's possible really.

Jennifer says she is being transferred to the USS Manitoba, which from the name might be a Parliament-class starship (the others we know of being Toronto and Vancouver).

In theory, that would break the banking convention - a Parliament class ship should be the Winnipeg in order to maintain it.

Maybe there's a Provincial class?

Edit: I should add the the banking convention was arguably broken from day one, since the legislative seat of BC is Victoria, not Vancouver.

What did everyone think? I slipped into a fugue state when I saw actual Gallamites.

Aside from the obvious space angle, it seems more like a "Suicide Squad" vibe to me, which makes a little more sense, I think.

Their marketing tone is not what I expected at all, but I'm still interested in what the heck this thing will be.

I just want a sense of what the actual story is.

It didn't actually occur to me that that would be considered clickbait. I suppose it's a local thing.

Yes, I strongly encourage people to curate their own experience.

 

"I have asked the security services to figure out a way to give some information to the leader of the Opposition so that he can actually fulfil his responsibility of protecting Canadians, including those within his own caucus," Trudeau said during question period Wednesday.

"It would be easier if he got his security clearance, but I've asked them to give him some information nonetheless."

they’re making the decision of whom you can & can’t talk to on your behalf

Anyone who wants to spool up an alt on a defederated server is welcome to do so. We suck at totalitarianism.

I just want to see Janeway's plan. She has no plan!
