  • On rewatch, I wonder if he was on the way to suggesting someone like Book when he was interrupted

    Agree with this, it seemed like he was using Book for context, not for a real suggestion. Saru respects what Booker has done for everyone, but I don't think he's a real big fan of the guy, and certainly doesn't think he should be the XO of a Federation ship.

    I could be wrong, though

  • Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x04 "Something Borrowed, Something Green"
  • " … delinquents, pirates, slave traders." (DSC s1e15, although the same perception about Orions is held throughout Star Trek).

    It seems that Orion culture internally looks down on those who want to be in the sciences, but it's Tendi's grandmother that shows the galaxy that they are not all just pirates. Some several years after DSC S1, in SNW S2.

    Using loophole, Seward County seizes millions from motorists without convicting them of crimes
    www.klkntv.com Using loophole, Seward County seizes millions from motorists without convicting them of crimes

    Four hundred and fifty-five miles of Interstate 80 run through Nebraska. But one 24-mile stretch has become nationally known – or notorious – for a type of traffic stop that sends millions to a single Nebraska county and its sheriff’s department.

    "Food for everyone!", lies Trump, as he doesn't pay for the food
    www.nydailynews.com Trump tells diners ‘food for everyone!’ then leaves without paying

    The former president shouted 'Food for everyone!' in a busy South Florida restaurant. But local media said he left without picking up the tab.

    ... to the surprise of absolutely no one.

    Looking for a good Horn Pub somewhere around the Metro area, any ideas?

    Yes, you read that wrong :-)

    Normally if I'm out, I'm either at one of the casinos, or a rock/metal/alt show at a bar, but every now and then, such as when wanting a 'classy' spot to take a date :-) i'd like to find some old school class, with some horns. Trumpets, saxes, trombones, and so on.

    Someone today suggested Cliff Bell's, downtown, to me. Any other suggestions?

    Thanks!

    A Box full of Sox and Nox

    ... i caught them finding an open box for the first time that I'm aware of ... so adorable

    Sox found it first, sniffed around, then jumped in, and Nox came running like OMG WHAT THE HELL IS THAT IT ATE SOX, and then he realized it was ok, and he forced his way in, and she had to go up.

    Cat talk? How to help with fighting between new cats and old cat?

    The sub says post pictures, but I'm hoping discussion is Ok too :)

    Situation: Have had a cat (Barney) for about 10 years. We brought a second cat into the house that we rescued off the street (Lou) back in 2019, but Lou was not well, and passed away in 2020. Barney mostly ignored Lou, but would occasionally get kind of close to him. If Lou approached Barney, Barney would just walk away and watch him from a distance.

    Had to rescue a pair of young cats (about a year old when we got them fixed in January, the vet said), Nox and Sox. They've been in the house since late March or early April.

    Barney constantly hisses at them if he sees them, runs far, far away. This attracts the interest of the youngsters, who come running to him to check him out, and this always starts a fight. When the fight begins, Barney runs away as fast as possible, screaming and ejecting as much fur as possible (i didn't know cats could do that, but apparently they can... )

    How do I help them to co-exist in the same house? We kept them apart for almost 3 months, and tried to introduce Barney slowly to them once they were comfortable with the environment, but he wants absolutely nothing to do with them so long as they exist.

    I don't know what to do :(
