One I didn’t know! I like this one.

Didn’t Wesley go to some special testing that had the geniuses competing for one specific seat. I recall he basically went there because there happened to be a particular available slot rather than just the general admission.

From the episode:

Captain’s log, stardate 41416.2. We’re orbiting Relva Seven, where Wesley Crusher is about to be tested for entrance into Starfleet Academy.

CHANG: I’m proud of all of you. You’ve done a superb job. Each of you would make a fine Starfleet officer. It’s unfair that only one candidate from Relva will attend the Academy this year, and a loss to the Federation if the rest of you do not return to test again. Mister Mordock will be the candidate. His results were slightly higher than Mister Crusher’s. Congratulations, Mister Mordock. You’re the first Benzite in Starfleet.

So I think it has much more to do with the timing of his attempt that mattered. Had he just waited with everyone else it wouldn’t have been such an intense competition

She?

SEATO apparently. Did not know that existed

Southeast Asia Treaty Organization

It’s still possible that the main trail is lower in the middle than on its right edge witch would still cause a lot of mud with a good rain

I think it is actually generally short for “Government Issue” as a kinda a reference that they are government issue like everything else in a soldiers life

I disagree. He doesn’t love money. He covets the respect and power that he believes money brings with it and if forever angry that even with the presidency he can’t get the true respect he believes he is entitled to.

Can you think of any other way that seems likely?

Poor life choices?

Cool, thank you. It’s hard to find clear info out there

From what I have been reading they are planning to charge all users who are streaming remotely… Even if the host is paying.

“If you want to watch you library away from home you’ll have to pay. It also affects anyone you share your home library with. They will have to pay if they are not Plex Pass subscribers themselves. Plex will offer a Remote Watch Pass tier for $2/month or $20/year.”

Now, I am not saying this is by any means a big amount of money or making a judgment call about the reasonableness of them charging for what services… But it definitely seems like they want to ensure they are getting cash from everyone who ever touches Plex. Again, $2 a month is very little, but that’s on top of the charges for the host

They are pushing to make users pay as well

You are not wrong. But trans folks can be a lot more sensitive around language use sometimes. Misgendering ranges anywhere from annoying to hurtful to being an actual verbal attack. So their skin is often less thick for gendered language.

NSFW???

Very very very good

In school in a sanctuary district? I wouldn’t let them in with a warrant. ICE can fuck off.

I wish Canada didn’t burn fossil fuels for power but as an Albertan I can promise you that we do.

Memes only matter if they effect revenue. If profit climbed then the stupid stays.

Memes don’t matter if revenue climbed

Specifically from Tim Hortons, which despite not having been Canadian in ages still gets treated like a Canadian icon.

But as a result yeah, often referred to that way in common culture.
