Interesting to get hung up on the mention of AI. I understand being critical of AI, but to avoid the triggering I’ll write out what the actual purpose of the comment was…

Is this a real episode that is mentioned? Is the author a Star Trek fan, or have they made up something random for the sake of the comic? A search doesn’t seem to find details of a real episode like this.

ChatGPT says there is no such episode with a “Vulcan army” and no “Lord Startron” charachter, and then proceeds to give reasons for why I might be talking shit.

Is Papa Roach known at all amongst newer generations? Or are we all millennials+ here?

Do you read them?

Great news. How about putting some money into building social housing next?

3 is a great depiction of: “I’m at work and getting attacked from all sides, but trying to keep a smile on my face”.

I still freeze the veggies. I’ll choose convenience rather than gourmet food. Just need to know you’ll have crumbly dry potatoes and wet eggplant (as veg releases moisture and frost thaws). It is still perfectly edible.

Potatoes don’t freeze well. Most vegetables don’t. Most tend to turn into a limp watery mess. Lentils or beans fare the best.

Please…no

Its amazing how quickly you realise that you don’t need something when you’re forced to stop using it.

Bathrooms have privacy locks, not security locks. They can be opened from the outside if someone tries, and my kids have little fingers that can open the latch from outside without any additional equipment.

It’s even worse when I go in prepared. I have young kids who will barge in and take my device while I’m on the throne. Now I’ve got to start taking in 2 devices so I still have something after losing one.

I’ll rephrase as this seems to have triggered people:

Everyone is on a spectrum of varying ability.

There was a time when oral sex was considered atypical and deviant. Same with anal sex. So it’s understandable that “the norm” might change quite rapidly.

Such exquisite poetry, I’ve seldom heard before. I’m going to get this comment printed and framed.

I’m the same. Don’t care about spoilers. If a story is only riding on surprise then it doesn’t have much to offer in the first place.

Even with series, if it has loads of seasons; when it outlives its usefulness then I have no problem ditching it after a number of seasons if I feel it has jumped the shark.

This false binary is the problem. Everyone is on a spectrum of neuro-diversity. Some people’s diversity is deemed “unacceptable” arbitrarily.

Please consider quality over quantity.

There is value in a short story.

There is value in an incomplete story.
