Car Talk with Martok is off this week for Thanksgiving and because I have COVID and am embracing the sweet release of death. Come back from my break and a day later get fucked. Come on.

Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans out there. Hope your day goes great and you get much of the food. Send some Mashed Potatoes and Gravy my way. I’d kill for some right now.

        Attractive is pushing it. Did you know that all mirrors are sentient? That’s my theory anyway. They keep screaming in horror everytime my reflection hits one of them.

        Gay is accurate though. Very very gay.

        However there are tons of other users here who post more than I do lately. They deserve all the props. @ummthatguy@startrek.website and @negativenull@lemm.ee as an example. Not to mention my brothers from another mother, @The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website and @xusontha@ls.buckodr.ink and my sister from another… thing that rhymes with sister, @Lydia_K@startrek.website. Plus @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world and @FauxPseudo@lemmy.world who been posting more and more. Not to mention @jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org and @Blackout@kbin.social and @Spot@startrek.website and everyone else.

        I get way more praise than I rightfully deserve.

        Also I’m sure I forgot people. I’m sorry. My brain is on fire :(

          The place you saw that was when you accused me of it last time and when you were posting transphobic dog whistle memes. There is a reason why your hexbear account was banned for this.

            The mission of Starfleet is to seek out new life with curiosity and enthusiasm. You found someone with a gender that you didn’t understand, and instead of approaching it with curiosity and enthusiasm, you declared that xenogenders are transphobic.

            To quote Picard in The Measure of a Man: Starfleet was founded to seek out new life; well, there it sits! - Waiting.

            I have never posted a transphobic thing in my life. You simply think that the existence of xenogenders is transphobic.

                You mean you’re not engaging with a nonbinary person. Which is your personal definition of transphobe. You know, if I was a cis man and a trans person told me I was being transphobic, I would at least spend 10 minutes questioning if I’m wrong. I’d do that basic courtesy. But if you’re telling me you’re incapable of that, then fine. I’ll let everyone else know exactly how you feel about the prospect of admitting maybe nonbinary people are real.

    This community is by far my favorite part of Lemmy, and you’re one of my favorite posters here.

    That makes you among my favorite Lemmy posters. Do your damndest to have a good Thanksgiving.

    Irish Guacamole

    … this is how I’ll refer to mashed potatoes from now on

    Also, @Stamets get well soon … get plenty of rest and take care of yourself, don’t stress about too much and only think of yourself for the time being, it’s not being selfish, it’s being safe … because if you aren’t well, you can’t make any of us laugh … so my advice to you to be selfish is me being selfish too … I want you to get better because it will make me feel better … so get well damn it!
