For how much he says “funny” in this, the series wasn’t very funny.

Nothing new really. A series producer asks fans to watch his show.

PIC was always meant to be a three-season series, and DIS is the first show of the Kurtzman era to air, so it makes sense its the first one to end to make way for new shows. Dropping PRO from Paramount+ before season 2 is surprising though.

Disinformation. BRICS and ASEAN are not ditching the dollar and definitely not this year. ASEAN agreed to promote local currencies and reduce reliance on the US dollar, not to ditch it.¹ BRICS is definitely not ditching the dollar as well. There was no consensus in the BRICS summit. Brazil wanted a common BRICS currency, Russia, China and South Africa wanted to promote local currencies instead, and India is less enthusiastic about dethroning the dollar.²

How does your native tea taste?

I just learned what had become of two franchises I loved, Rollercoaster tycoon and Simcity. It seems to me that they have been leeching off classic and successful IPs, filling them with microtransactions and making cheap idle games for profit.

I don’t, so I don’t pretend to. I proudly say I don’t know when I don’t know things.

You just made this up. Unless you know what goes on behind the scenes with the decision to honor Hunka, which you don’t seem to, then I suggest you don’t pull stuff out of your ass. Are you even Canadian? You know that the conservatives are literally called the Liberal Party right?

But thousands of years of use in practice, so that says something.

Could be placebo

I don’t think that’s true. Voyager can search posts.

Not everyone has that choice. Living where you live prevents upward mobility.

HTC was truly a pioneer.

Total money grab.

These are just horrible. Attempts at dry humor without being smart. I feel embarrassed for the writers.

You can say that about most of the world

Personally I never shower.
