No religion in Star Trek doesn't mean there's no religious people, it means religion is not the governing philosophy of the Federation/Earth. Starfleet would let an officer wear a hijab if the officer wanted, but would never ban pork from ship replicators. Get it? *sips coffee*

@miss_quark @trekkiebill Who has been both a man and a woman… She told her Klingon friend she has a new name and he accepted it. look up “metaphor” “allegory” and “empathy” in that order.

@Variety @jestom Dave is forgetting that the audience decides what's funny, not him or any comedian. If you are a comic demanding the audience's taste stay the same so you can do the same kind of humor you're tacitly admitting you are laois touch with what's funny.

It's amazing to me how the utter inability of Walgreens and CVS to run a viable retail business is driving the narrative that crime is out of control and cities are in dire straights. No, honey, Walgreens and CVS are in dire straits, because they refuse to hire enough people.

@jessiegender Remember the SNW pilot episode where Pike told the planet at civil war, “oh yea, *this* side is right and *this* side is wrong and shouldn’t exist.” Except he didn’t, he said they both needed to choose peace and reach for the stars cause they had one world to share.

It was also wrong because it's not the actors job to police the audience. it's wrong when Lillias did it, it's wrong when Patti LuPone does it. Acting is a job with clear responsibilities and house managing isn't one of them.

Ok I said three but I lied. What happened at hadestown wasn't wrong bc an actor couldn't "see" an audience member's disability. Thats an impossible standard. It was wrong because the way an audience member participates in theater is nobody else's business

I think Paul Wesley is the best Kirk since shatner and actually might be a better Kirk than him. He's playing the character Gene wrote. Not inserting his ego into it. Pine was the horndog "fan Kirk" that never existed, and his Kirk was a bit of a dolt sometimes.

“Last Best and Final.” Carol’s three favorite words — because they’re a classic unionbusting trick. The WGA got “last best finaled,” and you know what we did? We kept right on negotiating for the AI protections we needed. Because AMPTP rhetoric doesn’t change the facts.🧵
