TIL! Cool.
- Comment on Film Discussion | Star Trek: Section 31 5 days ago:
I’m glad people are finding it tolerably fun, I guess. I’m about 30 minutes in and don’t know if I can keep watching.
- Comment on Star Trek: Section 31 Review: An Open Window on a Side of the Galaxy Not Seen Before 1 week ago:
I wanted to say something snarky about how “Section 31 aren’t the good guys! Don’t you get it? Stop telling stories where they are!”
But I actually suppose that in 2025 the message of “You will lose utopia if you don’t defend it by whatever means necessary” may actually be a tragically positive message.
- Comment on Star Trek:Section 31 Premiere Reaction (ft Emily Inkpen) and Q&A with Michelle Yeoh and Rob Kazinsky [Spoiler-free mini-review] 1 week ago:
the person who saw the movie described it as “fun,” “silly,” and “Guardians of the Galaxy meets Fifth Element meets Mission: Impossible”.
I have a feeling I’m gonna be like “This was a good sci fi movie, but should it have been a Trek movie?”

In the first Witcher game, you fight a god from the Cthulu mythos (Dagon) on like a side quest, and he’s not even that tough.

I could see a world where all politicians are required to do a guided LSD trip prior to taking office being better than this one.
- Comment on BACK IT UP 2 months ago:
I actually met this mother fucker in Mexico in 1999, giving a talk on habitat preservation at Lagoona San Ignacio to a bunch of C list celebrities who were there to support the Natural Resource Defense Council and it’s efforts to stop Mitsubishi from building a salt extraction plant in the middle of a gray whale breeding sanctuary (super good cause).
I was there with a bunch of high school students who’s rich white parents paid for them to go on an expensive ass field trip to watch whales fuck (and do eco protest activist tourism). Coincidentally, the NRDC was there too and they got really excited to invite a bunch of American highschool students to their media shindig.
RFK Jr. got SUPER drunk and gave a sloppy, rambling, barely coherent speech, thanking people for their generosity. The kids were like “WTF is up with this dude? We’ve never seen grownups act like this!”
We did get to hear some really cool marine biologists talk about grey whales. Then one of THEM (Roger Payne, I think) got really drunk too and told us “Whales are people damn it! But you can’t publish that! You can’t fucking publish that!”

- Comment on Creamy Cartilage 2 months ago:
My wife has a genetic disorder that (among many other things) causes her spine to herniate at the drop of a hat. She’s had to have emergency surgery multiple times.
About a year and a half ago, a neurosurgeon was operating on her and came to talk to me and my mom who were waiting. She was extremely excited, in that like “academic who just saw something new” kind of way, because my wife had the third biggest herniation she’d ever seen, and the largest in a patient under 70 (my wife was 34 at the time). She asked if it would be OK if she invited a professor from the local university and a couple of his grad students to come look at it.

Unfair. There were some episodes with Pike and / or Saru that were… Never mind. Fuck it. Put it in the top box.
- Comment on THE DEMONS 3 months ago:
That’s not a demon, it’s an unseelie prince of the Sidhe. Look at the ears and the crown. It’s not that we should pray to Jebus for protection, it’s that we should stop dumping CO2 into the atmosphere and pissing off the winter fae.

This. As someone who runs a consulting business that works extensively with New Space startups doing business with big aerospace contractors and government entities, my only question is “What’s your PHD in?”
We probably won’t need you to really do much work. Just learn about our projects and come to meetings so you can talk about them. Heck, I’ll write you scripts and give you a sheet of the softball ass questions we expect and the answers to them we want you to give.
