Y'all, I like all the Treks, I can't deal with your fighting, please think of the children.

@RickiTarr What makes me sad: Paramount+ ending series with less promised new works in the pipeline. At their peak, five series at a time per year. Now, I'm not sure that will ever happen again. (They clearly aren't interested in elevating one series to a full season commitment of 23 episodes. That would at least be a sign of good faith if they can't run more than a couple of shows.)

What doesn't make me sad: Faith of The Heart. I still love Enterprise, even if the presence of theme song lyrics made it weird.

@notroot @RickiTarr Cause there's supposed to be an onomatopoeia-filled answer when asked "what's the words to your favorite Star Trek Theme?"

(Currently Strange New Worlds) "BWAAAAAAH! Ba-ba-ba-ba-BWAAAAAH, Ba-ba-ba-ba-BWAAAAAH, Ba-ba-ba-ba-BWAAAAAH, Ba-Ba-Ba-BAAAAAAH!"
(Whistles the Star Trek TOS notes at the end.)

He is supposed to be dancing, and he does not dance. Dance, Blob Cat! Dance, damn you!

Adulthood is packing a bag with multiple electronic devices for a day trip and never touching any of them

@rootcompute Can confirm.

Esp. the one time in a year I think it is needed and I am super eager to use it, when everyone else is like, "dude, it can wait for later, it's no big dea-- okay, fine." as I do it anyway.

Each non nazi white person needs to convert 5 white nazis.

@StillIRise1963 Gotta say this: if someone else got them before you did, they don't count.

Otherwise every white person will claim "job's done" when exactly 5 former Trump supporters are bugged million of times to stop being racist.

I know everyone hates AI and I get it, I really do. I'm not trying to diminish people's concerns. All I'm saying is I tried a month of Midjorney to see what all the fuss was about and I blew through my credits in two days generating pictures of people covered in spaghetti.

So perhaps this is a cautionary tale after all.

It's so weird that we are all supposed to be ashamed for burping and farting. I deeply apologize to everyone for keeping my body from literally exploding, so uncouth.

Cefr,
@Cefr@beige.party avatar

@RickiTarr I'll apologize for gas, that stinks.

Burps, belching and other mild forms of gastric distention, if someone gets miffed about that past a quick "excuse me", they are someone I don't want to break bread with ever again.

@RickiTarr @jwcph @done My former best friend and TERF adjacent (calling him feminist is a stretch, but definitely Trans Exclusionary) asshat I attended HS with would be in that camp. He would only see women as mating partners. (Same mindset of anyone who says "all women love me" or "I know how to talk to any black person"... Seeing people as monolithic, pigeonholed "others".)

The same dude bro mindset who reduce women who cannot reproduce (various cancers have this as an outcome) as "not wife material".

He passed away, so I can call him an asshole all I want now to everyone I know. While he was alive, I was pushed to backpedal by friends and relatives, "he's trying", "he's not as smart as you, give him some credit".

No, he was a dick. I was his friend because there was literally no one else in my neighborhood my age to be around. (And it was the 90s. I was as informed on transmisia as any kid who watched Sifl and Olly.)

I don't know who needs to hear this, but DuckDuckGo makes their money by selling the eyeballs of its users to the highest bidder. What you search for affects the ads you see, because they sell "show this ad to anyone searching for that."

It's still surveillance capital when your actions dictate how much money the search engine makes, even when the advertisers don't know who you are.

Cefr,

@nyquildotorg IIRC DuckDuckGo is Bing, so there is no safe quarter from AI replacing search in any manner.

Y'all I just made myself feel so old, hubs looked up top 100 music from 2001, 2011, 2021, and today and the amount of music I could recognize decreased by significantly. I recognized probably 70% of 2001 and decreasing as I went on. BUT I blame the internet, I can listen to exactly the kind of music I want with no dependence on the radio, but also I'm old!

@RickiTarr As a Gen Alpha kid put it to me, "Rock is out of the mainstream. When I hear it, it's what people your age listen to on ads I know aren't meant for people my age. Classic Rock means nothing to us because that describes all rock music as far as we care."

I could shake my fist at it, or I can try to understand it. Rock isn't the language of rebellion to the young anymore. Why use your parents favorite genre to try to disassociate yourself from prior generations? There is a bit of sense in that.

"So what do you listen to that upsets your parents?"

"I'm not a big music fan."

If that was my kid, that would do it.
