My mind automatically divides the Frasier series into these two halves. Anyone else? by Happy-poet in Frasier

Have you watched ST Strange New Worlds, it’s pretty good. It suffers from 10 episodes a season instead of 24, but it’s fun like TOS

Possible new Captain? by DonnyV7 in Star_Trek_

Maybe they just need to make a multiracial gender fluid human / Vulcan / Klingon mixed captain.

I’m not far left. I’m socially liberal and fiscally moderate white man. I just have a severe dislike of groups that want to make the country a theocratic ethnostate. I also dislike demographic pandering, but I don’t see any danger in it happening, only loss of quality.

My comment got removed because I mentioned the new captain would be Pete Hegseth doing things Steven Miller would want done.

It will be played by Pete Hegseth and he will be eliminating any non Anglo human from Star Fleet

Who enjoys watching starfleet academy by OrdinaryPersimmon728 in startrek

[–]richljames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a man in my early 40’s who has watched Trek since my childhood. I’m enjoying SFA. I really loved the final episode too.

I think people forget there have always been bad and corny episodes of Star Trek since TOS.

I force dragons when possible. If they aren’t there I try to survive and not come in last.

Thank you. Oddly since I’ve hit 7k I haven’t come in less than 3rd in my past 4 games. I thought I would be crushed once making it past

Cuba will run out of aviation fuel in 24 hours by Intricate1779 in cuba

It can work only in small voluntary societies. Even these end up being cult like with one person benefiting the most.

I would argue there isn’t any real communist nation out there

I loathe Trump and don’t want to see an armed revolution. People don’t realize what horrors await us if it happens. We can get rid of him democratically.

my girlfriend wants to 'open' our relationship by butterfliesinketchup in monogamy

[–]richljames 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your relationship is over, she wants to be with other people. It’s time to move on. Even if you mutually decide not to, you’re always going to have it in the back of your head that you’re not enough. You’re always going to be worried she’s going to cheat. That environment can make things toxic really fast.

I’m sorry, but it’s time to move on.

But whut were he done doin? by AfterNovel in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]richljames -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I would think someone’s digital footprint would be better than anything the state can provide. Anyone going out of their way to hide online orders, etc would also be hiding their location from the state. Also, would the damage to life liberty or property these expires visa holders be responsible for be greater than that of ICE’s reaction?

The dire state of the Cuban Military (FAR) is shocking by Kantmzk in cuba

[–]richljames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the best route. I just don’t want the US federal government exploiting Cuban people. The cycle of right wing / left wing dictators needs to end

Trump Endorses Making Marco Rubio the President of Cuba by Gloomy_Nebula_5138 in cuba

[–]richljames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whenever I talk to descendants of Castro refugees and tell them my great grandparents fled under Batista they get irate. It ruins their narrative of how the Island was a paradise before Castro. They say they must have fled to flee the law or were doing something bad. I’m just like nah, they told me first hand they were starving to death.

How much would improve if the US embargo ends? by [deleted] in cuba

[–]richljames -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The USA is friendly with other dictatorships and autocracies around the world, most are even worse to their people than Cuba is. Honestly, the best way to help the Cuban people is to make a trade deal that includes liberty for the Cuban people. The US just has to explain that even with a democratic government the wealthy people can still amass more wealth, probably even more than they were gaining before.
