Well we can call the game now.
Trump just fired the women responsible for releasing the jobs numbers reports. He claimed the weak numbers are because she manipulated the data. Of course no evidence has been provided.
Oh and the Smithsonian museum is pretending Trump wasn’t impeached twice.
We are in full blown revisionist history, revisionist present and and grandiose future dictatorship territory. -

Rumors that Pete Hegseth will run for office in Tennessee and resign as SecDef. If true obviously just a soft landing for a man who knows he is out of his depth or who is being pushed out. I’d say this is good news except the bench of talent lined up to replace him will be the same or worst. Maybe a Hollywood celebrity who played a soldier once. -

Ya know, if AE had a bit more nous, they might have had a parallel ad featuring Briana Smith. Would anyone debate her having great genes?
From the perspective of natural selection (as opposed to sexual selection) in modern industrialized societies with minimal risk for most people of death from starvation or exposure to the elements, genes for large breasts are objectively inferior. (One catch: for many social animals, including humans, physical attractiveness tends to make it easier to acquire resources, including better nutrition and---in the United States---access to better healthcare. And better resources for escaping from natural disasters, better security, etc. So the overall impact of big breasts might balance out in favor of greater fitness in terms of natural selection, even in societies with social safety nets. But probably not. Which is to say: not now, and not yet... but even if we get to the point where we're constantly fleeing fires, floods, and marauding fascists, it's not clear whether having big breasts to entice wealthy would-be protectors will outweigh being able to run faster (and have less protuberance to catch on fire... running around with gigantic flaming breasts would not be good, especially since the fire could spread straight to the heart).)
Not objectively inferior at all. You are confusing fitness as we normally use the term (strong, fast, durable) with fit from ‘survival of the fittes’t which just means made the most copies.
If big boobss get you laid you win. If big boobs can get you resources so you can raise kids, you win. If big boobs get you raped and pregnant from an evolutionary standpoint point your genes win even if you as the organism lost. If breast cancer kills you at 40 but you already had all the children you were going to have their is no reason for this weakness in your genes to be lost.
The reason so many diseases like Alzheimer’s, cancer etc strike is when we are old is because their is no evolutionary pressure to remove them. -

I think Discovery is the only Trek TV show I've ever watched. Bailed in season 3 I think. I liked the movies with Chris Pine.
Tiste this is a crime against Trek and a crime against you. Please give Star Trrk strange new worlds or TNG a go.
Discovery’s had a completely different tone to all other Trek. -

Discovery made me weep
I LOVE strange new worlds
This trailer, I don’t know what to make it of it actually. Deep space 9 was actually great trek and being locked to one location it perhaps pioneered longer form storytelling in Trek. It can certainly be done and done well. The lack of exploring though seems like a negative rather than a plus. Even deep space 9 had a ton of episodes with travel and we explored the Bjorans, the gamma quadrant and the dominion and a fresh for trek war story. Not to say academy can’t do the same but if it’s set on earth it may seem more tame.
I hope the Doctor isn’t just a once off. He probably wasn’t such a big hit with me when I was a young teenager but as an adult I realize his character, his arc and his episodes are perhaps the best in voyager.
Edit: perhaps I should have known this but a quick google search tells me this is the academy of the far future discovery timeline. Yikes!
Although I guess that means starfleet academy won’t be on earth
Have we ever got a good explanation for why discovery felt the need to butcher the Klingons?
