  • I haven’t seen all of Discovery, Enterprise, or DS9 so I’m completely unqualified to participate in this, but I’ll make a write-in vote for Original-flavor T’Pring. Biiiiiiiishhhhhhh

    SNW T’Pring though, I love her. She’s got actual depth and I can empathize with her.

    Runner-up: TOS T’Pau. Stuck-up xenophobe, plus they gave her that dumb early modern English dialogue of thees and thous that was supposed to convey ancient wisdom or something but they conjugated it all wrong and it’s annoying as hell







  • If you consent to it, it’s ethical. It is not otherwise.

    The knowledge that you live in a society where you could be legally killed at any point for the greater good, and the resultant fear and uncertainty probably would cause more harm overall than doing so could actually alleviate.

    Is that not exactly what happened to Tuvix? Complete with him begging in helpless fear?




  • Moreover, Neelix and especially Tuvok as an enlisted Starfleet officer consented to the risk of death that comes with serving aboard a starship. And that’s exactly what happened to them. Tuvix was never given the choice and was murdered for having had the bad fortune to be born aboard Voyager. So much for seeking out new life.







  • The first “porn” I saw was in middle school. It was a single bootable floppy disk with a pitiful menu of crude – almost repulsive – animations on an Apple II, basically no better than stick figures. The lesson I took away from it? How to program animations on an Apple II. And also that using one-voice beeps and honks over a bitbang speaker to suggest the buildup to an orgasm is hilarious.


  • However, Mr Migliano’s understanding from VPN providers, was that “this increased demand was driven by adults not comfortable disclosing their real identity while watching adult content.”

    No, really? There are whole, grown-ass adults that just don’t want people to know they’re into some weird-ass shit?

    Or how about even normal shit? Anyone remember when Australia tried to say that adult women with small breasts are basically child porn? God forbid you’re not exclusively into the gigathick mommy milkers, you deviant. Seems you’ll be on the watchlist now. No need for warrants ever again when everyone on earth is a suspect for something!

    This has less to do with pornography than it does normalizing one more goddamn camera.
