@halm Yeah, but I kinda reasoned it in my head thinking #Expanse is dystopian and all dystopian hellscapes definitely require reporters... 🤣
But, as others have informed me, there is definitely a reporter named Jake Sisko in the Star Trek universe who plays an important(-ish?) role. The wiki doesn't seems to have much by way of his journalistic exploits, though. 🤷♂️
Yo @startrek, tell me something?
Do #trashy #tabloids exist in the #StarTrek universe? Does \any\ #journalism whatsoever exist in the Star Trek universe?
Because, if not, then it means there are no Tucker Carlsons and no Jon Stewarts, and no John Olivers in that universe. Probably because nothing needs internal investigations in that society as a whole!
And that frankly blows my mind... 🤯

Why do you need to spy, when you can simply... buy?
We gave up our data willingly and made it easy for all the 3-letter agencies of the world. We only have ourselves to blame. 🤷♂️

@FlyingSquid The only thing you should do in these moments is point at them and laugh at their ignorance... :P
I mean, anyone who expects a person to be enthused about a holiday from a religion they don't identify with is seriously suffering from a case of "the stoopid". So, pointing and laughing at them is perfectly acceptable, IMHO. 😬
I'm currently in "The Grinch" quadrant. Where are you? :P
