@Mhappenow

I don’t know if you are interested in this but I stumbled across it on Youtube. I’ve seen Noel Cassel a lot on some of the internet news/talk shows and know his connections with Trump. but never heard them laid out like on this video,

I didn’t know Trump had to have rhinoplasty for his coke nose, nor did I know he regularly shits his pants and has to wear a diaper. Don’t feel obligated to watch. .

A social norm seems to persist in Japan that one should apologize first and explain later. That goes for companies as well. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2024/02/09/language/successful-unsuccessful-public-apologies/

I am absolutely loving the songs from the ST ! : D

It's my new favourite thing, and I've been obsessively listening to Apologies since I saw it. The way Ethan Peck pulls off a confused Spock crooning about the warp core, then wondering in song why he's doing so, is priceless. They all do an incredible job with the singing, but Christina Chong - who plays Security Officer La'an Noonien-Singh - is the standout for me. Both in the ensemble numbers and her solo. Gold.

After an embarrassing number of repeated listens to , only one thing about it has started to bug me. That's the first two lines of Ortegas' solo;

"Ortegas is at the helm
The pilot seat is my realm"

It seemed a bit odd on the first couple of listens, but today I finally put my finger on why.

Other characters go right into their status report, with no prevarication. Why would the helmsman (helmswoman?) open her report by telling the Captain she's in her seat, where she usually works?

Did anyone mention "Take On Me" by A-ha?
That has got to be a contender for #MostAnnoyingSong

Maybe in the junior leagues. But I don't think it holds a candle to "My Heart Will Go On" by Celine Dion. 😱

She's Canadian. We're sorry.

@Barros_heritage @histodons @anthropology @sociology With the Dutch apology in the news, maybe I can do a tiny bit of self-promotion?

With Tom Bentley (U Aberdeen), I recently co-edited a special issue of Global Studies Quarterly on Political Apologies for Historical Injustices.

ai6yr,

This is a good evergreen point on : "The Court will not require an apology from Respondents because a compelled apology is not a sincere apology. Any decision to apologize is left to Respondents."

Smoke for being wafted to the US East Coast.

cazabon,

@ai6yr

To America: we're sorry.

While we're at it, also belatedly sorry for Nickelback, Justin Bieber, and Céline Dion.
