My best friend’s mom got a juicer when we were twelve and told us we could juice anything we wanted. I immediately juiced a garlic bulb and drank it like a shot. I vomited, and it now occurs to me, I probably ruined subsequent juice for a long while.
There’s also seven of nine and lots of Vulcans. The Vulcans might be a little stereotypical, but I definitely have a 0 or 100 option on emotions, and I don’t always get the emotional attachments others have to objects, for example. I understand it intellectually, but I don’t care about any things. I have historically kept some keepsakes, but I’ve moved continents and abandoned all of them (with glee, actually).
It’s Alexander!
I seem to remember Germans were like 10-20% at one point, but that might have evened out over time
I’ve only seen the first season so far (my borg-loving husband won rock paper scissors, and we’re finishing voyager first), but that’s wild. I’m very excited for Rom’s character development.
In the 1971 case of Arkell v Pressdram,[76] Arkell’s lawyers wrote a letter which concluded: “His attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of your reply.” Private Eye responded: “We acknowledge your letter of 29th April referring to Mr J. Arkell. We note that Mr Arkell’s attitude to damages will be governed by the nature of our reply and would therefore be grateful if you would inform us what his attitude to damages would be, were he to learn that the nature of our reply is as follows: fuck off.”[77] The plaintiff withdrew the threatened lawsuit.[78] The magazine has since used this exchange as a euphemism for a blunt and coarse dismissal, i.e.: “We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram”.[79][80] As with “tired and emotional” this usage has spread beyond the magazine.

I have no idea how everyone else recognizes actors who normally wear prosthetics. I assumed Michael Dorn was a producer when I saw photos of the movie premieres, and I would never have recognized either one in this picture.
I know this is an old post, but it couldn’t be a closed system, because you’re losing energy through the act of digestion. 2000 calories of food are turned into 600 calories of poop (or whatever the numbers are).
