I do mean blocking users and communities. The three dots only exist in card view, and I hate that view.

I only date women, for context. I'm a sucker for really crisp diction.

We have those MAID pods in Canada, why not just buy a few of them? Not cruel enough?

Learn an instrument! An hour of noodling a day will get you to pretty good quite quickly. An hour of real, hard practice, doing etudes, drills, and scales will make you a virtuoso one day.

I loose weight by eating 2 big meals a day. My go to seems to be frozen pizza (1000 cal each) and and curries (500-600 for curry, another 200 for my naan in butter). I eat 1600-1800 calories a day and feel like a glutton while my scale keeps going in the right direction. 50lbs down so far.

Both seem keen on fighting corrupt politicians, be it in Medici or Midgar. Hard to tell.

You can be critical of candidates you support. Biden's only use is being not Donald. He's not doing anything any other centrist dem would be doing in his shoes, and doing a whole lot less than a progressive. People see this. Biden is not an inspiring figure promising to produce a better future, he's a generic placeholder, representing status quo in a dismal system. People aren't energized to vote for this and that's understandable. Pretending this isn't an issue or isn't costing his campaign votes only hurts the party. Vote for Biden, but demand better from the DNC. You can do both.

You cannot be on the left and not find fault with Biden. If so, you're either a neoliberal or you're fooling yourself.

You cannot be on the left in the US and not vote for Biden. Sometimes status quo is the better than the only other outcome.

These aren't mutually exclusive, they are a sign you have a working brain and heart.

It is a bad, cheesy, non-trek song that we ironically called good for so long we actually started liking it for real.

Wind and solar. They have downsides, like they all do, you're right, but they don't obliterate sensitive ecosystems of threatened species. The downsides to nature are significantly reduced with wind and solar. Tidal looks good too, but I don't know enough about it to give it the official "Some Random Guy on Lemmy Stamp of Approval ".

Why not just go through it in order? Make the new stuff a treat earned for getting through everything else. I'd start with the TOS pilot and go forward. She'll either like trek or she won't, jumbling it up isn't going to make her like it more, but it may make her like it less.

Because there were a whole bunch of trivia gameshows out there at the time, this one had to set itself apart somehow. So it's trivia, but in reverse, which was novel for the time. The format and content were a hit formula, enjoyed by the well educated and the uneducated alike. We forget the weird gimmick because it has been a nightly fixture in homes for several generations. It's just good, high paced trivia with little filler and, for almost the whole series, a beloved host.
