So $9K?

For the layman, that’s a lot, but for Trump?

But why not just reverse the polarity of the primary power coupling?

I got the book too! Did you have any luck de-dacting the Rubber Ducky Room pages?

Huh… never knew that tidbit.

It’s easy to imagine if that reality had come to play, we’d get the Tom Paris treatment… but I can’t help but wonder if we might’ve gotten a Captain Brahms.

You’d probably end up with the next generation of conversation therapy involving full blood transfusions.

I played the original on the DS.

I thought it was cute how the person she was interviewing would give her story on the top screen, while on the bottom we got the protagonist’s internal thoughts, which were 100% unrelated to the information she was gaining.

It’s not a bad series. Kinda like a weird quaint cross between weird Earthbound-like fantasy and Ace Attorney Investigations.

It seems very Ferengi to have a museum gift shop with museum coming soon.

I wonder how binding Freeman's contract with Rom was. Say, in the Disco era… Ferenginar brings Kronos into the Federation. What will unfurl?

You could, of course, argue that Freeman's contract was invalid when Rom called for the original papers… but rule of acquisition 239: "Never be afraid to mislabel a product." would suggest that the validity is a mere minor detail.

I wonder who Amazon managed to tick off.

Amazon’s monopoly has been defended by the government up to recently, particularly in the field of ebooks.

Certainly not defending Amazon, but I’m wondering what the full story is.

Q’s involvement is from the computer game Star Trek: Borg. It’s a fun, if mostly linear, Choose Your Own Adventure type game shot on the Voyager set.

I do recall reading about some that can digest plastic a while back… but they weren’t especially efficient at it and if given the opportunity to digest something more conventional, they’d prioritize that. I also don’t recall what the plastic was broken down into.

At the very least it’s a lead, if not actually a solution.

Nah. Luigi had a personality prior to the 3D era. His modern portrayal is, at bare minimum, inspired by the Super Mario Adventure comics, where he was portrayed as the more cowardly of the two brothers. And that’s not even looking into things like the Super Show, which created Toad’s modern voice or the CYOA novels.

He put a voice to that persona, but he didn’t create it whole cloth.

Watch to the end. It has some new stuff. I admit I was misled at the beginning as well.
