Another vote for this series. Cherryh’s books are some of my favorites!

Garak.

Ultimately it’s his instance, his liability if shit goes sideways, so his call to make.

I don’t think it’s the end of democratic anything, and it seems to be more because another instance took action and defederated than the call of a single person, because context matters.

The statement referenced said there was no responsive administration at rammy as reported by a rammy user and attempts to reach admins by others were not successful.

That’s very different from what you’re trying to claim.

Yeah, you’re not winning points by becoming aggressive with the people who you want on your side.

This isn’t Reddit, and that’s kind of the point. I do want higher standards here and the way to make your point is with words, not slurs.

Bring receipts. Link posts if that’s your thing, screenshots if you want.

I took a screenshot of what and who I found objectionable, which I am willing to share, however I won’t post it publicly because it’s (to me) hate speech.

I was browsing through /all and had the misfortune of finding a transphobic post from the site. Blocked user and community but if that’s an indication of what they’re putting out, hard pass on the rest of it.

Just finished up and I liked the spy thriller premise but it does rank lowest in my D+ series ranking. The entire thing feels like a setup, but for… (fill in the blank with not a waste of time at some point in the future please)?

Ritson’s response is painfully USian, so it tracked for me, but it’s like globally, aliens aren’t a new concept so… Why?

So daft that you can’t somehow differentiate between good aliens and bad aliens and given that the globe is already dealing with the blip fallout and repatriation efforts a million seems like such a miniscule number, so, who cares?

G’iah as super-super-super powered individual seems too much to me, even as I was accepting that Gravik had cracked the ability to get some powers, it still wasn’t an end all be all issue. Now you’ve introduced some potential meta-threat that’s just tacked on the end of one of the weaker D+ series and for what? Like what is going to be done with this character or is she just going to be shuffled off and sidelined?

I don’t like the way that the series just did away with established characters (Hill especially, Talos because wholesome AF, liked him) so casually, though. Like the deaths felt they lacked any real weight to them. They felt like just things.

I do like Varra. So, so much I like her. I doubt she’ll ever show up again but for what it’s worth, I like her.

I feel for the Skull plight. I just wish that they’d gotten better than this. Surely there is more to it than Gravik vs. Talos/Fury.

Maybe whatever it’s setting up will make it something I want to watch again in the future, but for now, sadly, one watch was enough.

As someone in that weird space of end GenX/too early to be Millennial, I support you.

That would take effort. Does anyone from GenX really wanna do that?

Lain was one of those anime that when I was introducing it to someone there was a “no questions, only experience” policy in place.

It’s a thing. There’s nothing less attractive than having to play parent to an adult who can’t pull their own weight in managing a household.

Can’t recognize that a full trash can needs to go out without being told? Can’t realize dishwashers that are full need to be run without reminding? Can’t find where clothes need to go when they’re clean?

If that workload is falling on one person most of the time, over time it can become a source of resentment.

When both people have full time jobs, it’s like coming home to a second job.

Went from hating antiquities to being a level 10 when I found that out.

Also having too many Sixth House tables, but hey, every apartment has one now?

Thanks for that idea!

Jack Thompson has entered the chat.

This takes me back to how much time I spent on these games and how much I loved them.

Aye

The soundtrack is absolutely wonderful. Even if you don’t play the game, give the soundtrack a listen.

Wasn’t from our server, came from outside. But it was within minutes of the post. It got downvoted and reported and was handled fast. A sort by new should show you where it used to be.
