Again, none of this has anything to do with now. The Mark of the Beast was gematria for Caesar Nero.
None of this is relevant to modern day. No Mark of the Beast will ever happen.

It is. And if you knew how much shit we're in because some weirdos went on a Revelation kick and let it influence foreign policy, you wouldn't encourage them.

John of Patmos was writing to first century Christians about events in their own day. Don't encourage that nonsense.

It took way too long to find someone who didn't reply to this thing like it was a real person.

I enjoy not being bothered by AI slopbots.

Don't do that. Don't try to make people dumber.

Nice! We'll probably roll in Thursday afternoon. I'll see you there.

We leave Sunday morning.

1:1 model of the Enterprise D.
Then try to circumvent the "not useful" rule by making all the crew quarters free housing.

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

Timoxenos @magipolycarp.bsky.social · 15h

Gasp you should. Are you going as well?

Timoxenos @magipolycarp.bsky.social · 15h

Lots of various Sci-fi and Fantasy, Stephen King, non-fiction about interesting science and or social stuff, and historical-critical religious history.

I have 11 audible credits and I'm driving from Michigan to Texas tomorrow. Give me some recommendations.

9070XT is my first non-Nvidia card. Been super happy with it.

Demo is out now on Steam. It consists of essentially Caretaker pts 1&2

Seems like a really solid start. The game gives you the opportunity to just use the array to send Voyager home, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Got my heart set on a Game Changing Host, lemme know if you come across one.

I only really go to the threads that discuss new episodes as they air and those seem like they're more or less normal well adjusted people.

I noticed a few times recently seeing particularly garbage opinions on Star Trek reddit and realizing that I'd somehow ended up on R/Star_Trek_

Not that there aren't regressive trek fans everywhere but that place seemed particularly dense with them.

He was also close personal friends with Billy Graham though, so he wasn't exclusively awesome.

Scishow has removed and apologized for the episode. Hank Green, someone who presents themselves as relentlessly affable and eager to talk about everything has failed to mention it.

I feel like the only thing I can learn from that is that's the kinda guy Hank Green is.

I think about how every spring forward there's an uptick in traffic accidents, heart attacks, workplace injuries, all of which is from a statistical uptick resulting from just one missed hour of sleep.

It can get so much worse.

Please don't fly in from New York. It takes away precious air traffic control resources and boy your arms will be tired.

In this economy?

Fun Fact, one of the Turtles first words was "Star Trek"

TMNT #1

@vorthosjay.bsky.social do you remember if the Turtles knew Star Trek was fictional in their crossover?

Timoxenos @magipolycarp.bsky.social · 1d

Not seeing it in your recent posts. How long ago did you post it?

Timoxenos @magipolycarp.bsky.social · 1d

There's been a lot of styles for the turtles over the years, but this particular generation of Eastman art has always been my favorite.
