Nothing - it’s a TV show and we should consider it a huge What if? Not trying to match our history/timeline to the IPs history/timeline.

Besides our history is starting to look worse than the Bell Riots. Just ask California governor. He may not have created a Sanctuary in San Fransisco but he is criminalizing homelessness.

I’m in my second half of life as I plan to live to be a minimum of 100 years old. Part of my plan, is to never retire from work. It made be an American thing but I don’t think retiring is for me. I like working even when I’m not crazy about the job but I’ve gone back to school to get a Master’s and just got a job more in line with my education. And I still have at least two more career changes. Working further into my field as a scientist and then probably end up teaching at the college level all the knowledge and wisdom I’ve gained in the field.

The best news I’ve had in the last few weeks is that someone thought I was at least 22 years younger than I am. I thanked them and told them I could be their parent. That totally freaked them out and they asked how is that I look and seem so much younger than I am.

My only explanation, I keep making friends regardless of that new friend’s age. I keep playing video games, and reading. I also just walk and have a cheerful attitude towards life. Believing in myself, and a firm desire to live to be older than 100 years of age with the same passion for life I have had since I was 13 years old.

Lastly, I don’t have a specific religion or belief in an afterlife so I’ve always intended to make the best of THIS life than worry about what happens when I’m gone.

This is the same argument that pro-slavers here in the United States were making before the Civil War that said no to that idea.

Sounds just like the GOPDNC convention to me. I think that worm ate something in his brain that he can’t discern the correct message to the correct party.

Not that I condone any of this, but consider that the cultural disgust of marrying a girl under the age of 18 is a more recent and modern taboo. Back then, in rural United States, it wasn’t an issue at all. Heck as a Gen X kid whose parents were from the Silent Generation, my mother married her first husband when she was 16 and he was 22. She never thought it was an issue other than she regretted marrying anyone at the age. But her parents, church, and teachers didn’t think it was a problem.

It’s hard to believe because most people might say Elvis lived in modern society but he’s not. The 20th century was full of changes that we don’t really think about.

I shocked that such a good Christian would allow his children to play Pokemon. I was told by a pastor a few years back that Pokemon was evil, Satan’s cards, etc., and that no good Christian family would allow their children to play it.

I guess he’s a good political chameleon ! I mean he changed his stance on Trump.

Then why use the same Meme for Dark Brandon?

So, more propaganda that Biden is a Communist? Really, that’s how you make that point and comparison? Tired of the Dems are Communist trope when it’s not true. Sure Biden is for the worker - THE WORKER IS THE MIDDLE CLASS!!

Which by Trump has been shrunk, and not in a good way, making it harder for middle class workers. Biden, whether I agree with him or not, clearly thinks MORE about the middle class and worker protections than Trump ever has done.

It was only relevant when the corps didn’t have it.

So, we can do what a bunch of aliens did to O’Brien when they tried, convicted and incarcerated him for 20 years and it was 20 minutes in real time.

Please AppleSoft BASIC was doing bytecode before Java was a gleam in a programmers eye.

And…no one (people I know) believes me when I tell them who the homeless are. Every one just holds onto the concept that they are just mentally-ill people who need to be in an institution. When I explain that any person’s mental health decreases the longer they live without a home, a job, and a family for support. Homeless people end up turning to drugs because they can’t stand the fact that their ability has decreased so much that a drug-induced hallucination is better than reality.

Newsblur is definitely my go-to. I love that I can train it to filter out toxic topics for me. It’s not 100% as sometimes the topic is just a repeat of the title.

But 90% of the time I can and it does.

This is the end of Season 2 of Picard!! Borg Queen only assimilates those you want to be assimilated.

Regardless of what the median life expectantly is, I don’t care I’m living to 100 years old. Barring accident of course. But I’m just too curious what the next 45+ years will be in the world. What are the new discoveries? New shows? What happens to the political situation? Will we become a space faring race? Or will we have to solve the climate crisis first, and stop warring?

I want to know. So I’m working to make that a reality.
