Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•Sub RosaEnglish2·13 hours agoFlute life kids count as far as Picard is concerned. They’re at least as real as children lost in time vortexes, in order to save their younger selves
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•That look.English1·14 hours agoLa’an and Kirk have both had a tragic time travel love they can’t talk about, and hers was him. If they’re really planning a romance arc based on that, it’s a big risk. People will be pissed if they don’t properly honor the City at the Edge of Forever
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•US House Republicans vote against blocking ICE from deporting US citizensEnglish5·11 days agoIt’s not deportation for the non-citizens either, it’s rendition, and it’s all very illegal
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•Can we talk about why DS9 never had its own movie franchise?English3·12 days agoI actually liked it. It’s kind of like beating up Worf. They used a former enemy whose power we are aware of, and showed how trivial they are before Art Vandaley
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•Can we talk about why DS9 never had its own movie franchise?English3·12 days agoI need a happy ending for the Silver Blood 😭
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•Can we talk about why DS9 never had its own movie franchise?English5·12 days agoI also got the impression that replicator quality can vary. I think it was Birthright, from TNG, where they go to DS9, and Worf learns his father might be alive. One of the Enterprise crew, I don’t remember who, makes a comment about the food at the Replimat tasting like polymer.
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Venezuelan detainees at Texas center spell out SOS with their bodiesEnglish5·15 days agoSo, just in case it wasn’t crystal clear enough what this is, one of the prisoners in the article asked if he could be sent back to Venezuela, and they refused.
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Unprecedented vote shows Dems fractured over housing policyEnglish2·15 days agoI would definitely agree with the advocates for affordable housing saying that there should be some guarantees, but the bill’s sponsor has already said he’s considering that going forward. Otherwise, denser mixed housing around public transit sounds great. Bad look for party leadership
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Texas House passes bill banning minors from creating social media accountsEnglish3·15 days agoThey’ll just end up on sketchier sites that ignore the rule, or learn to use a VPN. Prohibition doesn’t work
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•"His mother did what??"English8·15 days agoYou’re crazy if you didn’t feel the tension between Archer and Shran
Infynis@midwest.socialto Michigan@midwest.social•Please tell Elissa Slotkin she got 23,847 fewer votes in Michigan than Kamala HarrisEnglish2·16 days agoAt this rate, she’ll be a one term senator. I wonder if she’s being set up to take the brunt of the anger people have for the democratic establishment. It definitely feels like there’s pressure on Michigan from the national party. Whitmer has been talking about working with Trump, which seemed very out of character to me. Some of his goons tried to kidnap her only a few years ago
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Trump’s Anti-DEI Push Raises Concerns Among Black Officers in Local Police DepartmentsEnglish2·16 days agoSurely the leopards will spare my face
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Everyone Says They’ll Pay More for “Made in the USA.” So We Ran an A/BEnglish2·21 days agoI think “margins” might imply percentage, but I Am Not A Businessman. I would be interested to see a full cost breakdown. I bet they’re saving on shipping! Lol
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Everyone Says They’ll Pay More for “Made in the USA.” So We Ran an A/BEnglish15·21 days agoThey almost doubled the price, but it cost them 3x more to make
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Healthcare Companies Screwed Over So Many People That It's Hard To Find Luigi Mangione A Neutral JuryEnglish49·21 days agoIf there’s someone out there that hasn’t heard about this case, I don’t think they should be allowed on the jury either. They’re obviously incapable of paying attention to anything
Infynis@midwest.socialtoUnited States | News & Politics@midwest.social•Fetterman: "... now we have an incredible window, I believe, to do that, to strike and destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities”English10·21 days agoMore dangerous stupidity from Fetterman
Infynis@midwest.socialto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name•They even call it a "void" both times!English2·22 days agoAnd I always get them mixed up
Got a Scroll of Prestidigitation as a joke item, but I saved it, and eventually found a use for it, allowing my character to avoid the use of a public bathhouse, which was great for him due to personal issues.
The scroll became a running joke, everyone would always laugh about, “Oh, if we only had a Scroll of Prestidigitation!” whenever we fall into a sewer or something. So when he got his next cantrip, at level up, there was really only one choice
