Spicy take around these parts.

I don’t think it should be controversial to say that you vote for Nazis and you are a Nazi.

So then our policy can simply be, “Nazis sleep alone.”

That episode was very good, but had a similarly ludicrous hook, with the evil scientist wanting to rip the child from Data’s arms, which ultimately results in her death.

In all seriousness, you can phone bank.

That’s too bad. Anything involving sentience and how we evaluate it is so fascinating and it absolutely could have been more interesting than that.

I don’t mind spoilers—but use spoiler tags if necessary—what do you mean?

Honestly, the validation means the world to me. The performances were all top notch and I get the idea they’re going for, but how they went there was so painful and contrived.

I think that’s a terrific argument and it is always wise to contextualize it in history.

We have absolutely been binging which certainly gives it a different feel, but I would argue even as a standalone episode it was poorly written if superbly performed.

There are ideas that could have been played with in a way that respects the setting. Perhaps another computer attempting to join Starfleet, but it looks like a box rather than a person and asks Data to argue its personhood.

I don’t know. I’m not a writer and I’m just spitting an idea off the top of my head, but I think there’s a place for internal consistency within a narrative regardless of when it was written.

Nun soup?

I’m on iOS, but I gave it a few minutes of swiping to help out.

I don’t really understand what this means. Can you explain the implications?

Well hey, thank you! It was a fun prompt, I appreciate the inspiration and the feedback.

Of course not. I’m in love with a whole person, not her appearance. I love her fierce intellect, her passion for justice, her wanderer’s spirit. I love that we can sit together and watch anything only for it to lead to a new and endlessly fascinating discussion.

Makeup doesn’t affect any of that.

I like how makeup highlights her favorite features or hides when she feels tired or insecure. I like that it helps her feel more fully herself. I think it’s great that makeup can do that for her.

She will always be attractive to me for who she is. How she looked may have helped me first talk to her, but who she is has kept us talking for 16 years.

I’m surprised you’ve made it this long without hearing about the sonic sunglasses.

Spoilers in that link, of course.

I just felt like the show lost its way a little. Like it doesn’t seem to understand the doctor anymore.

I think Capaldi is a fantastic actor and I love the idea of returning to an older doctor, but I recall an early episode when he duels a swordfighter with a spoon and it made me think of that old Reddit copypasta from the weird girl.

Then the sonic sunglasses?

I just.

I don’t know. It just wasn’t for me.

Not to sound like a curmudgeon, but you’re not missing much.

Moon Reader+ is probably the only thing I still miss from Android.

It requires no restraint if you’re not a monster.

Vice President is the surest path to President in US politics.

Can and absolutely do. Pet is my standard security question and it’s just a standardized password I use only on that field.
