there is a pocket star trek novel i can’t find a physical copy for less than 100 US dollars called “a stitch in time”. for some reason they won’t reprint it (they released an audiobook recently but i don’t personally like reading books that are not physical paper books).
163·3 months agoI heard J.K. Rowling is actively looking to make people forget about the old cast bc they are supportive of trans rights.

Well, someone murdered the United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson and it is alleged that this guy named Luigi Mangione did it. The media went into a frenzy trying to make us hate Luigi, but since most Americans experience what is like to live under a system that treats healthcare as a way to make profits, nobody did. They even tried framing this as a left x right issue instead of a class issue but even many people on the right didn’t think Luigi did anything wrong. Luigi is also a conventionally attractive dude, so it’s hard for the media to play with people’s preexisting prejudices. After many attempts, they seem to have decided the best approach to this was to suppress all speech on the matter. They are trying to frame this murder as an act of terrorrism and seem to be very scared of the public response to this. Reddit is trying to ban any mention to Luigi (even Nintendo related ones), and also has banned many people who did as little as upvote a comment related to him.
Kind of a lot 😅
You mean you weren’t familiarised with the Luigi Mangione story?

I don’t trust billionaires. Period.
also, financing brutal dictatorships in other countries in the last century while trying to stop the advances of “communism”, including brazil, where i live. thousands of people ruthlessly tortured, kidnapped and killed where i live for “political reasons”.
