DS9 had Jadzia kiss another trill whose host happened to be a woman. TOS had the first televised interracial kiss. ENT had a pregnant Trip Tucker. Trek has always been woke.

The writer is an attorney teaching constitutional law and political philosophy.

My brother and I used to put ice in ours. Better than throwing rocks since you can claim ignorance.

They go to a star a few times. Troy "Butt soup" Barnes is a bit of an idiot though.

Per comments from Holmes himself, the idea for the name had nothing to do with Tolkien’s works, nor the movie. It was instead to denote royalty and lordship. I have seen nothing in any of the reporting to indicate that this had to do with anything other than the name of the food truck. The truck wasn’t going to be themed after the books or films. There wasn’t going to be any trade dress or vehicle wraps harkening back to those works of fiction. There wasn’t to be a flavor of chicken called “One wing to rule them all.”

So trademark holders being douchebags as usual. The Lord of the Rings isn't associated with chicken wings in anyway so how could consumers be confused?

Ever heard of Dolly? She was a Eugenics Wars soldier.

Ensigns, I've had a few

But then again, too few to mention

I did what I had to do

And killed them all, without exemption

I planned each charted course

Each careful warp along the byway

And more, much more than this, I did it Janeway

I have a couple Star Trek questions, if you don't mind.

What time did you guys have to get up in the morning?

Does every writer write for one character?

What's a best boy?

I saw it in the credits once.

Why don't they call it Planet Trek? You never go to a star. Not one episode.

That makes it even worse. Why didn't they set up at night and throw up some camo netting? There are ways to lessen the chances your radar is blown up is all I'm saying. The ruzzians are morons exhibit #4,832.

Edit:

This was tucked away at the bottom of the article:

It’s possible the Ukrainians knew where to look for the Yastreb-AV because the truck-mounted phased-array radar emitted a distinctive signal—one Ukrainian intelligence may have had on file.

So they probably did radiate at the wrong time and paid for it.

I hope I'm a gimmie and not a dim.
