What a fucked up and disgusting post.

So true! I still remember when people heavily disliked DS9. I was a huge fan, but dare me saying it was perhaps my favourite Star Trek. Today there are more people open about liking DS9. (✿´꒳`)ﾉ

At least she avoided the typical end of most side characters who got a name and speaking role for ~1 episode: dieing as a casualty between some special effects.

The whole show is peek boomer “haha wife bad/annoying” humour.

This made me realise you could probably fit an entire small town including all it’s drama on a container ship.

What’s the deal with pumpkin spice? I’ve seen a few memes about it. But online all I can find is that it’s some kind of beverage.

A lot also think they are Kira while in reality they are just virtue signaling for internet points and the rush of being “right”. They stray further and further from rationality and basically become a screaming hate mob.

That women are supposedly complaining about men not crying doing Titanic?

Why does it have to include sexist stereotypes?

This is really scary. I found Homelander to be so obviously sadistic and cruel and broken. That’s why I think the actor did such a great job, he gives off major psychopath vibes. Long before the Nazi backstory. How can people miss that?? It’s concerning…

Nerd back in the day (at least where I lived) did mean something else though. It was a label people used for people they did not want in their group/community/neighborhood.

Perhaps it’s because in the past people would never call themselves “nerds”. Nerd and freak was an insult people would throw at you. So I think it did kind of change in meaning.

Do these people actually exist? I’ve read it before but I can’t believe that the character Homelander has fans. The actor is amazing, though.

Understanding how complex something is, is irriversible. Once you reach that plateau you will always know how much there is you don’t know.

I also feel better when I use less libraries, even if that may seem irrational sometimes.

I think part of the library craze stems from people who really only want to use the programming language as a tool to get fast results (which is legitimate, of course).

For example in academic contexts you have a lot of scientists who use R with a whole truckload of libraries, often unnecessarily. It reminds me of the plugin craze in the whole wordpress can of worms…

I think they didn’t mean how you structure your code but actually precision.

The only good representation of gays or lesbians I have seen recently was the kids show The Dragon Prince. The show has everything. Lesbian mothers kissing on screen, openly gay men, a single dad, multicultural patchwork families, a non-binary person going by “them”, … These are side characters, but they are fleshed out and don’t just are these traits. They are likeable characters with an actual role in the story.

Interestingly, kids seem to have zero problem with accepting this. There were no questions ‘why does this character have two mothers’ or ‘why does the black king have one white son’.

My nieces were fans of the show and one of them even had a Dragon Prince birthday party. I wonder how many parents just never watched the show, or they are all really open minded.

I agree, perhaps what people see as noble in him is that he is incorruptible when it comes to his own moral code. I always think of noble gases when I hear “noble” xD so something that doesn’t mix. And I think that’s right for Garak. Noble as in righteous definitely is not fitting.

He is an incredibly likeable character, but just because that’s a part of his skillset!

We shouldn’t forget that he believes cruelty can be justified, like most Cardassians seem to do. Either a lot of people agree on this take on cruelty, or it’s easy to forget because in the show his cruelty is rarely shown. We just hear about it (mostly).
