You’re confusing active suppression for inability. The Romulans aren’t idiots, nor short on genius, they’re deluded at their core, to the point that their intelligence alone explains the long-term survival of their civilization. The Picard series didn’t invent that about them, and the stable 8-star-star-system believed to have been created by super-tech in Romulan space is old lore as well.
Amused me greatly that the Romulans didn’t see this coming. Okay, who am I kidding? I liked them before all that and seeing the flaw in their take multiple episodes before the big reveal kinda pissed me off.
It’s basically how the Tal Shiar duped themselves and their entire civilization.
Are you trying to make me glitch? Can’t say I attracted the OP, does not compute.
I’m harmless.
I basically never get to say that, because by now I would have had all of my family, friends, or self insulted in any way you could think of. Its the people I “attract” to watch out for.
Yes, but I’ve had far better luck rocking vending machines to get my stuff, versus giving up and walking away.
Trick is to gently rock it back an inch or three, then drop it. You don’t want to give it enough potential energy to rock forward: You want it to stop suddenly and your goods to keep falling.
I almost called you a dude, for your refusal to seek navigational assistance.
I would consider this conversation fun, but for the downvotes you’re getting. This side of the dog-pile is unfamiliar territory for me.
Comic is written by the Woman. Are you lost?
EDIT: don’t know how that comma snuck in there.
Veterans and any serious athletes’ major advantage: you’re gonna have shit yourself sometime. Better just to take your time with the course and/or otherwise not worry much about holding it in. Fastest time’s probably going to be leaving brown streaks somewhere far short of that toilet.
What? It’s important to screen out anyone who knows a goddamn thing about programming if you ever want to get a brake from talking about work.
It’s one of the perks of technical work that this is even possible.
Pretty sure I understand less about the slang now that I’ve seen it in this format, but I still prefer it to other encounters I’ve had.
Came here to say, I find this more palettable than most such refferernces in the wild.
I’ve probably got 14 years of TDP to catch-up on, but seeing these dailies makes me happy.
That’s the nicest thing I’ve agreed with being said about my country in over a month. Thank you, kind stranger!

Oh look, its the gay agenda according to morons. Okay, Okay, the kid’s reaction to the straw is absolutely the worst of it, and also the punchline.
Please make sure we never get a breakdown of this by DJT or JD Vance. The pig-fucker episode of Black Mirror was NOT a how-to guide!!
There is a point at which we have not struggled enough to understand and empathise with our elders, sure, but almost 100% of the time, its the reverse that’s happened;
They have not seen enough of our struggles and lack the capactity to understand or empathize with them as struggles at all. Their struggles, and later comfort, let’s be honest, have numbed them and fitted blinders to their judgement.
Where does this imply that I downvoted anything for the reasons you mentioned? There were maybe five or six comments prior to my own, and I downvoted all of them besides OPs(which I did upvote, tyvm - funny how that didn’t work out to you noticing).
Less spammy than “trying to set the record straight” by correcting them all, nevermind that, as I stated, I don’t have a better solution anyways, but again, yes, I also up-voted the one-or-two comments that had anything to do with OPs problem, both clarifications by OP themselves.
I’ve also up-voted other comments since, but there have been none talking about Ribbons and Tabs since, at least. Almost like what visibility my own comment got served its purpose.
Things don’t have to be positive to work. Sometimes Loud Garbage can slow the buildup of even-more-useless-if-well-meaning garbage. Well-intentioned, useless, basically-un-true-in-context things only pass one of Socrates criteria, btw.
You’re talking about a people who changed the color of their blood and adopted a Conlang at inception. They also managed to craft a civilization that accomodated/compensated for the extremity of their emotions. You really have a bizarre take on what is or isn’t possible for a species, simply because another one did it first. Calling some of the best Trek in decade Nu Trek/non-canon is revisionist non-sense.
