Do you guys remember the episode of TNG where people kept vanishing, and only Dr. Crusher remembered them?

I think if they had done that in DS9, to O'Brien, he wouldn't even have noticed, and got caught up on his maintenance. Finally got everything fixed just in time for the universe to collapse in on him.

I don't think you understand the statement "The title makes no sense."

Tenth Amendment, might apply here.

I inching that's why the union is doing this. Seems to me like a "soft strike," or something. Making sure they know, and everyone else also knows, they can't do the job without more people.

when it quits bring entertaining.

It's utility for the original purpose, communication without limits, (or checking for coffee) is being diminished, and at some point, ill stop using it for that. But as long as there are jokes and titties, it will still be a source of entertainment.

We should be concerned about endangered moths. Hard enough to get people to care about other people.

The fact that he's bitching about it means it was effective.

If the president can ignore the court, the court can ignore the laws.

Of course, down that road lies. . . well, we passed Madness a while back. Not sure where this road leads, anymore.

Agreed on all points. But rational thinking is necessary for a functioning democracy.

As you observe, that's one reason we don't have one.

I think you missed the entire point of my statement, which, amusingly, proves my point.

The older generations get pissy about being called the "Democrat party" rather than "Democratic party," which, to be fair, is the proper name. But it's really a stupid thing to get worked up over.

The fact that you didn't even realize that I we talking about such a silly little thing is reasonably good evidence that it is, in fact, irrelevant to modern democrats.

The DNC can do far better, yes. But the voters can also do better. Thinking critically is an important part of participating in democracy.

As I said before the election, there was no option that did not include US funded murder of children. If Trump had been an outspoken opponent of the war in Gaza, (and we had any reason to believe him) then I could see the argument. But that was not the case, was it?
