[01:01:45]
<erdfcvtygh> x
[04:03:53]
<Deyvid> Terra Nova will be starting in just a moment
[04:04:07]
<erdfcvtygh> Good Deyvid
[04:07:37]
<erdfcvtygh> I dont remember that, and TV pretty much raise me back in the 80's
[04:07:57]
<Capt.Tsonia> Jolan Tru and Qapla'
[04:09:04]
<Deyvid> John Moschitta Jr.
[04:12:39]
<Capt.Tsonia> Linda Park(Hoshi) from Enterprise
[04:12:44]
<erdfcvtygh> Yes he's Captain
[04:13:11]
<Durzan20> sounds right
[04:13:28]
<Capt.Tsonia> just saw her in Bosch
[04:14:22]
<Durzan20> but, voyager is generally terrible across the board, and keiko was by far the most annoying character in DS9 besides the bajoran race
[04:14:45]
<Durzan20> so i would only count sulu and hoshi as quality asian characters :)
[04:15:36]
<erdfcvtygh> Khan Noonien Singh sound indian to me
[04:16:04]
<dafydd68> India isn't Pacific Asian...it's Indian Ocean Asian :-)
[04:16:29]
<Durzan20> played by a hispanic with a spanish lisp, again, not really a great example of an asian character
[04:16:37]
<Capt.Tsonia> wow never thought of India as Asian at all...just learned something
[04:17:48]
<Durzan20> remember, in the words of ricardo montalban's khan : Esplain it to them!
[04:18:47]
<erdfcvtygh> Not me, I dont believe in modern day pc crap
[04:18:57]
<Durzan20> nationality is the country which recognized your citizenship, has nothing to do with where y ou are born necessarily
[04:19:05]
<Durzan20> recognizes
[04:20:05]
<Durzan20> examples : your born in US, your a US citizen. IF your a muslim rohynga born in myanmar, you have no citizenship at all
[04:20:37]
<erdfcvtygh> lol, and being push to bengladesh
[04:21:05]
<Capt.Tsonia> Instinct
[04:21:22]
<dafydd68> INSTINCT :-) funny show
[04:21:38]
<Capt.Tsonia> good show
[04:21:59]
<Capt.Tsonia> CBS
[04:22:25]
<dafydd68> yeah - he goes home to his husband, that's all
[04:23:03]
<erdfcvtygh> Abby was my last nail in the coffin of the show
[04:23:44]
<Durzan20> lol i never realized that was him
[04:24:26]
<erdfcvtygh> Soylo a SJW story
[04:25:07]
<dafydd68> lol - alien sexuality is a mystery to humans!
[04:25:15]
<Capt.Tsonia> apropos in a universe of aliens
[04:25:22]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol
[04:25:41]
<Durzan20> childrens fairy tales should teach moral lessons, who cares
[04:25:55]
<dafydd68> exactly lol
[04:26:41]
<Durzan20> teaching all that tolerance like Jesus.. who do they think they are? :)
[04:27:04]
<Capt.Tsonia> :-)
[04:27:43]
<erdfcvtygh> More like shoving their vision of the world to all the rest
[04:27:53]
<Durzan20> right, thats called tolerance
[04:28:11]
<Capt.Tsonia> exactly
[04:28:16]
<erdfcvtygh> I ran out of that with the birth of mankind
[04:30:14]
<Durzan20> in star trek terms, tolerance = IDIC. it is logical
[04:31:06]
<Capt.Tsonia> let live and let prosper so to speak
[04:33:02]
<erdfcvtygh> I hate that Kenedy bitch
[04:33:49]
<dafydd68> uh oh - she went again
[04:39:18]
<Durzan20> oh it absolutely is a liberal thing
[04:39:45]
<dafydd68> most alien life is probably microbial/microscopic....
[04:40:09]
<Capt.Tsonia> yep completely alien to us :-)
[04:40:32]
<Capt.Tsonia> he is very tolerant
[04:40:56]
<Durzan20> hes still in charge of the largest brainwashing machine on the planet.. hes just an upgrade over the previous guys in charge
[04:41:42]
<Capt.Tsonia> yay!
[04:41:49]
<Durzan20> good
[04:44:32]
<Durzan20> for anyone that missed it last week, i discovered an old show i had never heard of called "starhunter" is being re-released/recut and getting new seasons, premier is the 29th on ELREY network
[04:44:34]
<Capt.Tsonia> might have lost Risa
[04:44:36]
<Deyvid> I think my computer locked up for a moment
[04:44:52]
<Durzan20> new version is called "starhunter redux"
[04:44:56]
<Capt.Tsonia> there she is
[04:48:22]
<Deyvid> Hiya CommanderDukath
[04:50:47]
<Capt.Tsonia> he looks younger than on Castle thought it might be an old one lol
[04:53:01]
<CommanderDukath> evening everyone,
[04:53:39]
<CommanderDukath> the ojk series was a moneymaker? not sure who bought into that trash, i sure didn't
[04:55:05]
<erdfcvtygh> I saw the Trailer for Cloak and Dagger
[04:55:13]
<erdfcvtygh> look good
[04:55:59]
<CommanderDukath> was listening to pandora last week and had a new group come across my playlist i'd never heard of before.
[04:56:11]
<erdfcvtygh> Syren is ok at best
[04:56:59]
<CommanderDukath> http://harptwins.com/
[04:57:01]
<erdfcvtygh> C&D is teen oriented from what I could tell
[04:57:23]
<erdfcvtygh> Dukath those twin are great
[04:58:34]
<CommanderDukath> no new ideas in tv, and movies, too dammed many reboots of old tv and movies
[04:58:56]
<Capt.Tsonia> true
[04:59:16]
<Capt.Tsonia> and they probably turn down good scripts all the time
[04:59:35]
<erdfcvtygh> I know right, lats take the old had some black, some gay some more other shit found on Tumblr and lets reboot it
[05:01:20]
<Capt.Tsonia> wow 90's like that was only 20 years ago why remake it so soon lol
[05:01:32]
<CommanderDukath> there was a movie a few years ago named black lightning, but it wasn't about a super hero
[05:01:40]
<Durzan20> i find that people who arent obsessed by gay, straight, black, white, and other evidence of the diversity of reality,dont really focus on these naturally occurring things
[05:02:29]
<Capt.Tsonia> i dislike labels...except that we are all human
[05:02:29]
<CommanderDukath> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Lightning_(2009_film)
[05:03:28]
<Durzan20> its like PC.. i always learn what the new PC term is from right wingers ranting about who they arent supposed to hate. the rest of us dont really need or care to know these things
[05:07:34]
<erdfcvtygh> Even the Sandman had a good reason to be a thief
[05:08:45]
<CommanderDukath> saw the last spiderman reboot, homecoming, that movie was terrible, it was almost like ironman light
[05:09:03]
<erdfcvtygh> Blargh, I hated it too
[05:09:28]
<erdfcvtygh> Ironman I liked the 1st and second, but the third was just a mess
[05:10:20]
<CommanderDukath> they treated peter parker like he didn't know squat about science or electronics
[05:11:19]
<dafydd68> The Ents have taken over?
[05:12:04]
<Durzan20> you explained it just fine
[05:12:13]
<CommanderDukath> the ent is near
[05:13:02]
<dafydd68> NZ may have lost the tourism, but that's Ent attainment
[05:14:06]
<CommanderDukath> ent-ertainment ;)
[05:14:23]
<dafydd68> yup :-)
[05:14:54]
<CommanderDukath> maybe it can branch out
[05:15:59]
<dafydd68> read all about it in the captains log
[05:16:02]
<Deyvid> Hiya Blindbat
[05:16:28]
<BLINDBAT> hello
[05:16:47]
<BLINDBAT> I might be mistaken but isnt deadpool blind
[05:17:03]
<Deyvid> https://youtu.be/CX11yw6YL1w
[05:17:43]
<erdfcvtygh> Zip it spiderman
[05:18:33]
<CommanderDukath> but now this weekend you have solo out. so it will be a fight between avengers, deadpool and solo
[05:18:45]
<BLINDBAT> erdfcvtygh no I dont want to zip it
[05:25:39]
<Capt.Tsonia> Definitely need to do something...
[05:26:00]
<BLINDBAT> I agree with her
[05:27:37]
<BLINDBAT> Kids should be afraid of teachers not of school shootings
[05:27:45]
<CommanderDukath> almost like that story about that young lady who had recently graduated, from kent state, she was doing a photo shoot with her graduation cap, and a rifle strapped to her back,
[05:28:03]
<erdfcvtygh> that was another era
[05:28:49]
<erdfcvtygh> In this day an ages, everyone want their 2 minutes of glory, and what was once the village idiot can find other idiot to help him
[05:29:22]
<CommanderDukath> http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-bc-us--graduation-photos-gun-20180517-story.html
[05:29:27]
<dafydd68> George Takei - One Pulse For America
[05:29:29]
<Capt.Tsonia> look to other developed countries and how they have helped reduce violence...are we as Americans just more violent? that would be sad
[05:30:01]
<erdfcvtygh> Im canadian, and yes you are more violent
[05:30:04]
<Durzan20> my favorite troll solution : legalize dueling, only for gun owners. The problem will solve itself.
[05:30:11]
<BLINDBAT> I think us a a sci-fi communtiy should be there for those that need it like being a sholder to lean on
[05:30:48]
<erdfcvtygh> Legalize dual period, some problem cant be solve by court....
[05:31:17]
<Capt.Tsonia> I'm 65 years old and have never been in but a very few violent situations(mostly domestic) I don't see us as violent on a personal level
[05:31:26]
<erdfcvtygh> OMFG, Blindbat you are so cute
[05:31:48]
<dafydd68> George Takei set up the group One Pulse for America in response to the Pulse Nightclub shgooting - there have been so many since. the group organizes campaigns and lobbying.
[05:31:58]
<dafydd68> A really good group if you want change
[05:32:06]
<Capt.Tsonia> yep
[05:32:15]
<CommanderDukath> we as a species have our heads up our backsides
[05:32:25]
<BLINDBAT> I agree with her
[05:32:33]
<erdfcvtygh> I just look at murder rate in large american city, compared to our canadian large city, it not even close the murder rate
[05:32:45]
<Capt.Tsonia> true Erd
[05:32:52]
<Durzan20> Murica is #1
[05:33:00]
<Capt.Tsonia> and those are mostly gun deaths
[05:33:08]
<erdfcvtygh> Mexico is number 1 I think
[05:33:23]
<Durzan20> i wasnt counting banana republics
[05:33:38]
<Durzan20> oh wait, yeah i was, lol
[05:33:39]
<erdfcvtygh> Because it a tool anyone can access
[05:33:53]
<dafydd68> yeah - too many doors....
[05:34:01]
<Durzan20> since we officially became a banana republic last week or so
[05:34:15]
<erdfcvtygh> I'll use a pichtfork if I want to kill someone, but a classroom will take a while
[05:35:15]
<Durzan20> same reason conservatives deny global warming, and left wing radicals despise nuclear power. stupidity.
[05:35:15]
<Capt.Tsonia> exactly erd...I'm from las vegas and with a bump stock etc the murderer I will not name killed over 50 people in minutes...
[05:35:21]
<BLINDBAT> blame it all on deyvid
[05:35:40]
<Durzan20> denial of science is not limited to any particular topic
[05:37:05]
<BLINDBAT> maybe trek radio should do a rock to eleminate the violance
[05:37:07]
<Durzan20> which is utterly pointless when the FCC is appointed by a banana republic wannabe
[05:37:08]
<dafydd68> we can either raise money for groups to fight for change, or carry on raising money for schoolkids' funerals
[05:37:38]
<Capt.Tsonia> sad but true
[05:38:25]
<dafydd68> a group needs to have the funding and orgaization to gun lobbyists...they are out there
[05:38:38]
<dafydd68> to *fight lobbyists
[05:39:32]
<Durzan20> guns are far more efficient for mass murder
[05:39:57]
<dafydd68> you cannot tell me that a knife is going to kill 53 people from a hotel room 300 yards away with a knife?
[05:40:11]
<dafydd68> you cannot compare a gun with a knife
[05:40:22]
<Durzan20> always ask yourself : why do people commit armed robberies in britain with baseball bats?
[05:40:27]
<dafydd68> its like apples and oranges -
[05:40:51]
<Durzan20> how much damage would he have done with a gun instead?
[05:40:56]
<dafydd68> he might have injured 10 people, but how many would he have killed with a gun?
[05:41:23]
<dafydd68> but if you talk about knivesyou are obfuscating
[05:41:32]
<Durzan20> yes deyvid, but at least make them work for it
[05:41:43]
<dafydd68> it is like saying lets not bother researching cancer because heart attacks also kill
[05:43:07]
<Durzan20> science says its not the cause, so let the right wing crazies obsess about that, only time and science can defeat that kind of ignorance
[05:43:48]
<Durzan20> its like how people have thought exposure to sex would make children into crazy sex addicts, but 25 years of internet has made children bored with sex instead
[05:44:05]
<BLINDBAT> I think rodney king said it best "can't we all just get along"
[05:44:48]
<Capt.Tsonia> and we've been playing violent video games for 40 years...I don't see violent tendencies in anyone in my sphere due to that
[05:45:19]
<Durzan20> statistics overall show the exact opposite
[05:45:30]
<dafydd68> it also doesn;t help when we publicise the person shooting - make them a nobody, remove that incentive
[05:45:59]
<Durzan20> of course, they also think the reduction in violence for the past 5 decades is largely because we no longer breathe lead all the time, but thats hard to test
[05:46:55]
<Capt.Tsonia> I like to say gun safety...instead of gun control....make it a law to lock them up that will help keep young angry teens from acting out their frustration
[05:47:09]
<dafydd68> The One Pulse For America community is dedicated to closing the "Passion Gap" with pro-gun activists by encouraging gun violence prevention advocates to take action on a daily basis to affect change.
[05:47:29]
<Durzan20> gun safety = melt the monstrosity in a furnace
[05:47:31]
<BLINDBAT> ya but it was not HIS guns it was his fathers
[05:47:36]
<Durzan20> gun safety is a delusion
[05:47:54]
<Capt.Tsonia> it is a bit of oximoron
[05:48:13]
<Durzan20> nobody is deluded into thinking driving in a car is safe, we do it all the time, but cars have legitamate purposes
[05:49:01]
<Durzan20> only purposes for guns are murder and practicing murder, and the occasional accidental child murder
[05:49:42]
<Deyvid> and self defense against those who are trying to murder you
[05:50:07]
<Durzan20> human nature teaches us that any of us can go batshit insane at any time for an infinite number of reasons. common sense says its better if you dont have an AK47 in your possession when this happens
[05:50:13]
<Durzan20> thats still murder, deyvid
[05:50:18]
<Capt.Tsonia> they are deadly weapons so why not take some steps to restrict who can get one...is a gun less lethal than a car? we must have a license for a car because if you use it unsafely you can kill someone.
[05:50:29]
<Deyvid> technically man-slaughter is different than murder
[05:50:43]
<Capt.Tsonia> exactly my thoughts Durzan
[05:50:46]
<Deyvid> legally anyway
[05:50:57]
<Deyvid> if you eliminate all guns, they will use swords / knives
[05:51:00]
<Durzan20> it may not be morally wrong in the instance, but using it for your home defense is propagating a society wide system of murder
[05:51:05]
<Deyvid> if you eliminate all swords & knives, they will use rocks
[05:51:30]
<Durzan20> right, and their efficiency will suffer
[05:51:42]
<dafydd68> knives are used for eating, carving wood, countless other things. what are guns used for other than killing - could you use one as a hammer?
[05:51:57]
<Capt.Tsonia> or a doorstop
[05:52:52]
<dafydd68> but again, guns are different to knives - they are two different things - different problems. To join them together in conversation is to confuse the subject.
[05:52:52]
<Deyvid> The government agencies, military and police will never remove their guns, they only want to disarm the public
[05:53:23]
<Capt.Tsonia> don't you trust your government?
[05:53:26]
<Durzan20> of course they do, the public is stupid and murderous
[05:53:26]
<dafydd68> I would love to see guns treated the same as cars - lessons, tests, liability insurance....
[05:53:50]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol we are not pissed we are discussing things
[05:54:16]
<Capt.Tsonia> wow ok Deyvid
[05:54:33]
<Capt.Tsonia> I mean to protect you in an invasion?
[05:54:39]
<Deyvid> The pharmaceutical industry does not care about your health, they care about profits
[05:54:41]
<Capt.Tsonia> in a war?
[05:54:44]
<dafydd68> corporations are not necessarily the same as government?
[05:54:55]
<Durzan20> nobody should trust the government, but dont delude yourself into thinking having a gun at home will somehow protect you against big brother
[05:54:57]
<dafydd68> especially if we revoke Citizens united
[05:54:59]
<Capt.Tsonia> even if the media wants you to think it is
[05:55:53]
<dafydd68> lol yeah - if the goverment were to come after us, a gun will not do much agains the weaponry that the military have. Perhpas we should all have stinger missiles on the front lawn
[05:55:59]
<Capt.Tsonia> Exactly Durzan...only look to Waco etc and no matter how many guns you have you would not be successful
[05:56:13]
<Durzan20> yeah, its just delusional. Free your minds!
[05:57:17]
<Durzan20> lol yeah, and those same idiots might have guns!
[05:57:29]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol yikes what a thought
[05:57:33]
<dafydd68> we all need Teslas
[05:57:41]
<dafydd68> or maybe not
[05:57:41]
<BLINDBAT> question if you do that with the licence and so on what stops the child from gettting the gun
[05:58:20]
<dafydd68> part of the licencing would be a regular visit from law enforcement to ensure you are comlying with safe storage
[05:58:21]
<Capt.Tsonia> lock it up ...its the law(like wear your seatbelt its the law)
[05:58:33]
<dafydd68> like in Japan
[05:58:40]
<dafydd68> and the UK
[05:58:49]
<Durzan20> lol, last night we had a big thunderstorm and lost power to about a quarter of this city, so i went for a drive to the nearest whataburger with lights. i was entirely surprised that every intersection
[05:58:49]
<Capt.Tsonia> i'd love to see signs..."is your gun safely locked away? protect your family..."
[05:59:11]
<Durzan20> with no lights people actually stopped and followed the proper order
[05:59:46]
<BLINDBAT> capt I like your idea but I know so many people that dont ware seetbelts
[05:59:46]
<dafydd68> yeah - roundabouts - slow everyone down because they are wary
[06:00:50]
<Durzan20> down here in south texas, we get mexican citizens, who have never been taught any rules of driving besides dont be there when the cops come
[06:00:59]
<dafydd68> yeah - a crash simulator would be great for youngsters - show them how easy it is to lose control of a ton of steel at 60 mph
[06:01:15]
<Capt.Tsonia> ask why we require these licenses? it is of course a revenue source...but it is basically a safety issue
[06:01:16]
<Durzan20> and we have winter texan old people driving around at 20 mph getting run over by the mexicans
[06:01:27]
<dafydd68> lol
[06:01:31]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol
[06:01:47]
<CommanderDukath> and those are teh people that get pissed off, which leads to being flipped off, and then words possibly being exchanged. and tehn it woudl escalate from there
[06:02:27]
<dafydd68> they will deyvid, but you are much less likely to see a mass murder with a stone....much, much more difficult.
[06:02:28]
<Capt.Tsonia> sorry that wasn't really funnny...
[06:02:57]
<Capt.Tsonia> don't know why I LOL's except I drive slow hehe
[06:03:13]
<dafydd68> i was 25 before i even bothered to learn how to drive, and only then because i was about to be a dad
[06:03:21]
<Durzan20> i once read that back in the 1940's, or 50's? LA had the best subway system in the country, but the big auto companies despised this, so they got LA to privatize it, bought it, dismantled it
[06:03:40]
<dafydd68> invest in public transport - makes much more sense
[06:04:00]
<Durzan20> probably not subway, metro i guess
[06:04:18]
<dafydd68> yeah - that figures - now Elon Musk is thinking of bringing public transport back as well as the cars
[06:04:32]
<Capt.Tsonia> yeah I remember reading something like that Durzan...maybe the electric rail system...which by the way now they have again
[06:04:35]
<dafydd68> although it is not "public" transport
[06:05:36]
<BLINDBAT> I want your email so I can send you a email if I see you doing bad on the road lol jk
[06:05:54]
<Durzan20> helps if you just dont have a smartphone
[06:05:59]
<dafydd68> lol BB
[06:06:22]
<CommanderDukath> and some of the newer cars, you can blue tooth your cell phones through the radio
[06:07:43]
<Durzan20> texas made it illegal about 9 months ago? so far i see NO difference in peoples behavior
[06:07:46]
<BLINDBAT> dang it just give me the windshild were I can turn it into a computer like iron man's helment
[06:08:17]
<dafydd68> yeah - a big HUD
[06:08:40]
<Capt.Tsonia> yeah I even see the police talking on their hand held radio thingies while driving lol
[06:08:44]
<dafydd68> "Taco Bell 300yds on the left"
[06:09:00]
<Capt.Tsonia> is it raining tacos again Daf?
[06:09:07]
<BLINDBAT> you know what give me the delorian from back to the future where it just drives itself
[06:09:18]
<Durzan20> back in the old days, i locked my keys in my car almost every single time i did something outside my usual pattern
[06:09:21]
<dafydd68> yeah - and end up in the past
[06:09:52]
<Capt.Tsonia> see what you started with that Risa?
[06:10:20]
<Durzan20> but! this is too emotional! this is not the time to talk about this! the profits must flow!
[06:10:37]
<dafydd68> treat the symptoms rather than the problem
[06:10:39]
<Capt.Tsonia> well then the kids might be trapped wouldn't they
[06:10:40]
<BLINDBAT> I got to say it this way what we are doing tonight is the first step we are talking about it and treating each others opions with repect
[06:10:57]
<dafydd68> yup - something needs to change
[06:11:33]
<Capt.Tsonia> discussion is good...some compromise and progress might be made
[06:11:46]
<dafydd68> when kids are saying "I am not surprised it has happened any more, just wondering when will it be my school..."
[06:11:58]
<dafydd68> that breaks my heart
[06:12:05]
<Capt.Tsonia> mine too...
[06:12:28]
<Capt.Tsonia> fires?
[06:12:59]
<Durzan20> You can also take heart from the fact the NRA has become a subject of the russia investigation, is swimming in dirty russian money, and its very doubtful they will escape this mess unscathed.
[06:13:12]
<BLINDBAT> it also hurts when it comes to getting others out in an emergrancy
[06:13:20]
<Capt.Tsonia> pushing and shoving....impatience is a symptom of our culture now
[06:13:55]
<BLINDBAT> I am sorry for all the typoes tonight
[06:13:57]
<Durzan20> and TSA doesnt work for sport trips, football games, UIL tournaments
[06:14:29]
<Capt.Tsonia> or throw it over the fence/hide it in bushes etc
[06:14:49]
<BLINDBAT> also metal dectetors are not disablied friendly a powerchair can not go through
[06:15:13]
<Capt.Tsonia> good point
[06:16:42]
<BLINDBAT> I also use a powerchair and when I have to go to the court house I was treated like a dog because they had to wand me and quested me on why I had certian items
[06:16:45]
<Capt.Tsonia> if a crazy person with a large capacity weapon got in the rest of the unsuspecting kids would be trapped?
[06:17:17]
<BLINDBAT> like my power charger to my chair
[06:18:11]
<Capt.Tsonia> that is sad BB
[06:18:22]
<BLINDBAT> deyvid look at my point about metal dectors
[06:18:27]
<Durzan20> lol my security concerns in high school consisted of making sure i kept the security officer at the parking lot was properly bribed so they would let me leave for lunch
[06:18:39]
<dafydd68> lol
[06:18:55]
<CommanderDukath> i went on a flight 2 weeks ago, through each tsa airport i was wanded because i have a stainless steel hook in my back
[06:18:56]
<BLINDBAT> they reason they are so narrow is so only one person could get through
[06:19:13]
<dafydd68> we had no fences - we climbed throught he hedges to take a short cut on our cross country run :-)
[06:20:01]
<Capt.Tsonia> do schools in the UK have CCTV installed?
[06:20:06]
<Durzan20> bribes are much easier
[06:20:06]
<dafydd68> but i never saw a gun up close til i came to the US...only airport police and SWAT teams used to carry guns.
[06:20:10]
<Capt.Tsonia> and in Canada?
[06:20:59]
<dafydd68> there is CCTV in inner city schools i think, probably more now that it is so cheap
[06:21:07]
<BLINDBAT> sounds like hitler all over again
[06:21:23]
<Durzan20> monkey see monkey do
[06:21:33]
<CommanderDukath> storm troopers can't aim worth a shit though
[06:21:36]
<Capt.Tsonia> mhmm
[06:21:39]
<dafydd68> yup - legitimizing the violence
[06:21:53]
<Capt.Tsonia> anger management?
[06:22:34]
<BLINDBAT> so question is this table a bunch of family members
[06:22:48]
<BLINDBAT> we are a trek radio family
[06:22:51]
<Capt.Tsonia> yep
[06:23:02]
<dafydd68> Deyvid is cuddly uncle
[06:23:29]
<Durzan20> lawrence odonnel went on a long catholic rant aimed at evangelicals the other night, about how calling people animals, even MS13, is a slippery slope, and Jesus would never call anyone an animal
[06:23:39]
<Capt.Tsonia> cuddly? like a stern teddy bear?
[06:23:40]
<BLINDBAT> NERD - Never Ending Radical Dude
[06:23:53]
<CommanderDukath> be like picard in the episode of darmok
[06:25:23]
<CommanderDukath> or like riva when he lost his chorus while being a mediator
[06:25:31]
<Capt.Tsonia> try to teach compassion and tolerance instead of hate speech
[06:26:34]
<BLINDBAT> I have an open ear/sholder policy... if it is needed will give you an ear and sholder to cry on and that is for everyone that needed it
[06:27:42]
<Capt.Tsonia> that is awesome BB...
[06:28:05]
<CommanderDukath> depends on if your cutting or smoking the grass. :D
[06:28:56]
<Capt.Tsonia> it can be improved if we all participate...can't complain if you don't try to do something to change if for the better
[06:29:02]
<BLINDBAT> my grandfather said it best "if you want to run your mouth then you have to vote and thank a vet"
[06:29:07]
<Capt.Tsonia> it for the better
[06:29:26]
<Capt.Tsonia> it is sad how many people don't vote
[06:30:12]
<BLINDBAT> I have voted in every election eathe primary or general election sence I turned 18 and I am 41 now
[06:30:26]
<Capt.Tsonia> my dad always said if you feel powerless start at the bottom and support a local candidate such as state represenative who you really agree with
[06:31:18]
<BLINDBAT> you can also get envolved
[06:31:29]
<Durzan20> yeah, no scientist would say that
[06:31:32]
<Capt.Tsonia> yep...if you can
[06:32:15]
<dafydd68> yeah - even if we make the mistake of putting too many controls in place, it will inevitably be safer for the children.
[06:32:22]
<Capt.Tsonia> because that state rep might run for US house of representatives one day
[06:32:36]
<BLINDBAT> or even president
[06:32:41]
<BLINDBAT> look at rand paul
[06:32:42]
<Capt.Tsonia> yep
[06:32:49]
<BLINDBAT> and obama
[06:32:56]
<Durzan20> rand paul, the libertarian sellout

<dafydd68> neither could her mum
[06:36:12]
<Capt.Tsonia> thats ok I can't either at times
[06:36:12]
<dafydd68> at her baptism, she was asked what the child's name was and mum replied "yoohoo"
[06:36:30]
<dafydd68> the priest misheard
[06:36:44]
<Capt.Tsonia> shakes head...Daf
[06:37:59]
<Capt.Tsonia> is there anywhere you can see that?
[06:38:07]
<Durzan20> if people like you, deyvid, would stop bringing that up, we wouldnt have to waste storage space on that useless data!
[06:38:20]
<dafydd68> lol so true
[06:40:02]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol yep Luke couldn't believe it
[06:40:46]

[06:45:04]
<dafydd68> hitting those balls in the air with the blindfold on
[06:48:01]
<dafydd68> it would be a Fett Acomlpis

[06:57:23]
<Durzan20> actually, i consider that the 2nd worst moment in enterprise, next to the final episode
[06:57:28]
<Capt.Tsonia> You can win some stuff in the Declare Your Allegiance
[06:57:39]
<Capt.Tsonia> contest on STO/Arc
[06:57:42]
<Durzan20> let say you have an alien enemy you want to erase from existence
[06:57:59]
<Durzan20> why in hell would you test your weapon on the target?
[06:58:11]
<Durzan20> stupidest fricking moment of enterprise
[06:58:17]
<Capt.Tsonia> where on youtube?
[06:58:48]
<Capt.Tsonia> LLAP everyone...we are family...all my players and me
[06:59:13]
<BLINDBAT> I will back you both up
[06:59:20]
<dafydd68> Soshal meedia - Sean Connery on facebook -
[06:59:31]
<Durzan20> India Pale Ale
[06:59:47]
<dafydd68> Indian Pale Ale - mulitple hops added at different points in the brewing
[06:59:58]
<Capt.Tsonia> egads
[07:00:10]
<dafydd68> Belgium is in Europe - a White lager is an unfiltered lager
[07:00:22]
<Durzan20> comes from the days of the british empire, when they needed to make beer stronger, for real men. also, beer lasts a lot longer when its stronger
[07:00:34]
<Capt.Tsonia> it is not made in India per se
[07:00:48]
<Durzan20> yeah it was actually named for the east india trading route
[07:00:59]
<Capt.Tsonia> aha that makes sense
[07:01:06]
<BLINDBAT> well how about a american white
[07:01:07]
<dafydd68> itwas brewed on the india route in order to keep the beer active on the journey
[07:01:08]
<Durzan20> so its a british creation
[07:01:19]
<Capt.Tsonia> lol
[07:01:25]
<dafydd68> yeah - that is a big thing in the EU
[07:02:10]
<Capt.Tsonia> they even measure the size of bananas
[07:02:23]
<dafydd68> yeah - like parma ham must come from Parma, even though it could be cured in the same way anywhere
[07:02:36]
<Capt.Tsonia> or Scotch whiskey?
[07:03:00]
<BLINDBAT> what would they call it on the internation space station??
[07:03:19]
<dafydd68> elevated
[07:03:27]
<Capt.Tsonia> did you like the beer?
[07:03:50]
<Durzan20> some things the europeans get excited about are important, like cheese
[07:03:56]
<Capt.Tsonia> its a that proprietary stuff...bah
[07:04:17]
<Durzan20> there is a group of french scientists who are making a project to store cheese making bacteria just like a genetic seed bank
[07:04:28]
<Capt.Tsonia> like pesto has to have pine nuts not those silly walnuts or cashews
[07:04:49]
<Durzan20> because cheese bacteris, like all bacteria, has been slowly trending toward a dominant straing, and therefore, worldwide, all cheese is slowly tasting more and more the same
[07:05:11]
<dafydd68> it was kind of fun :-)
[07:05:12]
<Capt.Tsonia> what? say it isn't so
[07:05:27]
<BLINDBAT> night all
[07:05:30]
