Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.

Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.

Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

  • New noises don’t bother me. The amount of things that can shake rattle and roll (it’s a mess but it’s all tools and things I need for work) means a new sound pops up every week.

    It’s the new slightly different vibration that sketches me out.

    Ever so slightly up/down vibration that you can barely feel when you get to 70? Congrats, next week when you drive to work you’ll hit a bump at 15 and the whole front bottom falls off. And now you have 3 other problems because drive shafts start flying all over and smashing into things when they break.

    No, I love vehicle ownership and definitely wouldn’t prefer to relax on high speed rail for 20 minutes with a rolling bag/tool box or literally any other form of mass transit…










  • I will preface this by saying I don’t believe for a second the US was ignorant of the intent to attack.

    In fairness, if one of your allies that you’ve been giving tons of weapons to suddenly decides to attack its neighbor one day, especially when both countries have nuclear capabilities, you can bet your ass the people in charge of militaries all over the world will be watching just in case shit hits the fan.

    For instance if France went insane and attacked England, you can be assured all of the EU defense departments (let’s pretend their defensive treaties aren’t in place) will be watching it like a hawk the moment it starts.

    Again, I believe the US government had full foreknowledge and would have given its blessing for the attack if Israel cared to wait for it. They definitely shared Intel that made it happen.


  • I’ll be honest, I don’t believe that Israel waited for a “green light” from the US for a second. I don’t believe they even bothered to check in the first place.

    It doesn’t matter because republicans will green light anything Israel wants to do as long as it doesn’t hurt their bank account. They gave carte Blanche a long time ago.

    All of this is a distraction, from both the US and Israel, for different things. Don’t get distracted in trying to point fingers and play the blame game. All players here suck ass for different reasons, with the ones attacking and backing being top of the list.

    Nobody asked or gave permission because the answer was always going to be “do whatever you want”
