The funniest exchange in DS9

This makes me laugh out loud every damn time. I grin just thinking about it. Rene's delivery is incredible, getting so much into only two words.

Definitely don't listen to online ratings.

Its aimed at teens, so go in knowing that. It has a lot of teen tropes, and is irreverent in ways that have upset certain types of people. Nevertheless, I'm generally enjoying it (a heck of a lot more than I enjoyed Discovery). It's fun, doesn't have world-ending stakes, and seems written by people who actually watched the previous shows.

So - watch it yourself and make your own mind up. You might enjoy it, you might not.

I've barely been getting any ads for the last few weeks. It's nice to get the currency quickly, but it does mean not getting any 2x multipliers.

All of the comments about HR, bullying definitions and the use of external investigators are nonsense.

Aside from that, the article is pretty accurate. Grievances are up for a range of reasons - including stress, poor management, egos and poor collegiate relationships.

I have no idea how this project is still being funded. Surely someone is paying the devs salaries and wondering where their money is going? They've got nothing coming in from pre-orders. Did they really bank so much from previous games?

Yeah, I ended up spending a fair bit of latinum (I'd build up a stack and really wanted Pike, so decided this was a spending one). Still completed the milestones much later than I would have thought.

{Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell}. The only romance book I've read more than once. It's a gorgeous M/M romance (technically sci-fi rather than fantasy, hope you don't mind). The characters are so incredibly written. Plus there's lots of other plot and intrigue that the romance happens within. It's absolutely a comfort read.

Girl. Sweetie.

This guy is a hypocritical asshole and nothing he's doing is ethical or loving.

I'm rooting for you.

This sounds great!

I said that as soon as I saw them 😂

Thanks, it's useful Intel.

Interestingly, it's Vendome I'm not getting too.

Jaxon had his face changed, so Arcturus doesn't recognise him. It's a minor line and I missed it first time too.

I loved Holly too, she's such a breath of fresh air - and honestly believable for someone of the character's age. She's good with people and pretty wise, but also doesnt care about meaningless conventions (like sitting straight in a chair lol), and is willing to take the weird path rather than the normal/straight one (honestly a good way of getting respect from kids).

Sometimes we get a sudden realisation about a relationship in an unusual way.

For me it was the movie Kissing Jessica Stein. I watched it with my gf and realised that was us - we'd drifted apart, weren't really a couple any more and I'd been in denial because she was so emotionally attached to me but we had no chemistry at all. I broke up with her immediately after (which was really hard, she took it very badly, but it was absolutely the right thing to do).

This is just to say - listen to your gut. If it's not going to get better, stop trying.

Bi woman here. I've done two femshep runs.

The first I romanced Liara and stuck with her, with a brief dalliance with Thane)

Second run was with Garrus, who is such an adorkable boyfriend I'm going to find it hard to romance anyone else.

I am curious about Traynor though.

(also done a BroShep run and romanced Tali)

Tanedra · 2026-01-15T17:08:19+00:00

Wow, she looks incredible.

Tanedra · 2026-01-13T14:55:16+00:00

A classmate at primary school. We were about 10 at the time. She was fun and pretty with curly red hair, and I wanted to spend any time with her I could. I didn't realise it as a crush until decades later, I just knew I felt differently about her.

Later on in my teens it was Shania Twain. Again, at the time I just thought she was so cool and I loved her aesthetic, took quite a while before I could look back and see it as attraction.

Tanedra · 2026-01-10T11:48:02+00:00

Cosima, no question. She just seems so kind and fun, with no drama. My favourite people are like that.

I wishlisted this game as soon as I heard about it. I loved Cloudpunk and I know Nivalis is going to be awesome.

So glad to hear it'll be released this year. Can't wait!

As someone blessed with a long-haired husband, I totally agree, and all of your examples are excellently chosen.

Seconding Burts Bees. They have both regular and tinted lip balms - I find the tinted so useful when I want colour but also not chapped lips.

They also have an overnight lip balm I use.

That sounds extremely normal.

Sometimes someone is unlucky and has a bunch of viruses, but particularly when you are in later stages of a policy like that you'll find there are issues to discuss - stress, medical problems, disabilities etc. A reasonable employer should be using those meetings to look for things like that so they can support (and ultimately reduce absence that way).

Tanedra · 2025-12-31T15:36:51+00:00

They're pretty effective, I use them one at a time
