Technically, this is daylight savings time ending, so this is changing the clock back to the normal time zone. But yes, they should probably stop it

Wow, you really like arguing, don’t you?

Sorry if i wasn’t very clear when I was kind of rapidly typing. To elaborate even by late October it’s still dark by like 7 And that’s with daylight savings time still in effect. If daylight savings time were still in effect in the winter, then by late December The sun wouldn’t be up until nine o’clock. That sucks

Seven in particular is a touchstone because that’s when a lot of people are up going to or getting ready for work and it’s when kids are often going to school and waiting for the bus.

Sure, there are places in more northern latitudes that have to deal with these compromises, but it’s a silly compromise to make when it’s artificially made.

Better to let end daylight savings one final time and leave it ended

3pm caffeine is fine for me that’s usually when I have a third cup, but 5pm+ I am done.

I used to be able to have coffee whenever and it not be an issue but age has a way of changing you

It doesnt make any sense to keep DST permanent there’s no pluses.

a) It will be still dark at 7am for large chunks of the year this sucks. b)You get one final shitty spring forwards, but lose out of the pleasure of one last fall back.

Yeah. It ending is a nice little treat I dont mind because Im able to sleep in and I get to be like “oh wow it feels so much later but it’s only 5 we have so much time!” for a few days until I adjust, but losing an hour in the spring can go to hell.

We dont even get anything out of it. Towards the end of daylight savings in october it’s actually darker in the mornings when you wake up which sucks cause it switches off just in time for it to also get darker earlier due to winter. Whats the pro of springing forwards? The sun fully sets at 9 instead of 8 in the summer? Admittedly I do love long summer days, but if lets be real that tradeoff is minimal(and kinda annoying if you have young kids).

Theres like a 2 week period in spring where its like “oh neat the sun is still up” in the evening. The whole thing is dumb.

Calaries in and calories out can be a useful tool, but it isn’t a silver bullet. I also think that it’s important for people to remember when setting a caloric goal that they need to be realistic in the amount of weight that they’re going to lose per month.

It’s also important to remember that what a healthy weight and size is is bigger than what the media often portrays it to be. Both the social and television. When all he needs to look at all those tabloid pictures of celebrity women sitting down in swimsuits while they’re going, “Whoa! Look how fat this person is now!Are they gregnant?” . The reality is that individual may still be relatively skinny. It’s just the pose therein. The angle that the camera is taking it and the lighting are just revealing A normal human body With organs.

Obviously there does come a point where someone is a little too big. This is true. But that line is more variable health-wise than a lot of people think.

I heard a theory one time that this is the reason why so many Americans consider foods like Taco Bell or just Mexican food in general to be immediate causes of diarrhea.

These people’s diets are so starved of any sort of fiber that just the small amount of bean in the burritos they eat at in these restaurants and lettuce in their tacos is enough to cause their entire digestive system to just panic and evacuate.

Don’t have a lot of faith in Skydance’s ability to produce a good Star Trek moving forwards.

I wouldn’t expect them to do a terrible amount of micromanaging on this show, but I could definitely see them hiring showrunners and creatives that are meant to appeal to a conservative demographic.

Young x and elder millennials overlap but I think thats more young millenials resembling genx than the other way around

Unfortunately decades of far right am talk radio pipeline adapted very well to gel with online platforms. Then they were able to cleverly take advantage of algorithms to "red pill " people. Younger generations are generally more liberal than their parents but far Right strategies have made a big dent in that.

Plenty of boomers who actually marched for civil rights out there, and plenty of young people stanning turning point usa and mourning charlie Kirk

I wouldnt say a majority but yeah there are a lot of trek fans who are were also pulling the “why you gota make everything political!” card . Nothing really tops the poop whirlpool that was the last jedi fallout.

Empire did nothing wrong is such a fascinating joke. Because it was and mostly today still IS a joke. An obvious one. They are the baddies. But then we entered a political moment where it people started sliding into the sub that were doing it in earnest.

See also prequelmemes which started off as a subreddit dedicated to making fun of and dunking on the prequels and overtime became a place where people would honestly defend.

Overall I enjoyed this one too. A fun little romp and did not expect to do the hangover in space. As always I really enjoy the mid century modernist futuristic stylings that the set and costume design bring to the show.

I do like the silliness that this show can find itself in because it allows itself to be grounded in the era of TOS.

To be fair the alphas were still under the effects of the atmosphere so while it would make sense for them to defer duties to beta shift they werent in a headspace to do so. And definitely not delta shift those guys suuuuck.

Surprised by all the negativity in this thread. I enjoyed the ride and liked how it didnt pull punches. Was a bit of a push in a new direction for spok and lian

Enjoyable episode overall. I loved the conflict they had with an alien species. I dont mind these kinds of predetermined time travel episodes but I do think they wound up responsible for a little too much. Theyre responsible for the destruction of a planet, the contiunuing redding of mars, and also they killed the dinosaurs. It feels like the consequences were a little too high. A reminder of how nutrek dials everything up to 11. It’s not just butterfly effects changing history it’s like everything.

I dont hate that pike let it happen, but also letting someone genocide an entire people and blow up a planet is a heavy move to make so casually even if it did already happen. I would have preferred the usual cliche of them trying to do the right thing and then missing the mark only to realize this was meant to happen.

Seriously why are we reposting anything from hunter biden. Im sure theres a number of more relevant and proper progressives with better insight and analysis of the elections .

Honestly, the two shows have such different formulas in how the action is handled that I don’t really see it working very well.

Like obviously, there are writers talented enough to make anything work really, but I think the two shows do have tones that would make an episode like this just be pure fan service.

I think it would work best as like either its own self-contained little mini-series, maybe one where the doctor finds himself in the Star Trek universe and winds up traveling and interacting with multiple eras. Or a one shot special that exists outside either shows season
