Bashir was pretty arrogant about it too like he thought that just because they was genetically engineered and just like him he thought they couldn’t be wrong or accidentally do something bad.

The whole episode felt like it was neurotypical people trying to make a episode about neurodiverse people and failing at it because they didn’t get enough input from the disabled community. (Felt like that. Not saying it was or wasn’t)

And I’m absolutely sure that neurodivergent people had input and was listened too they could have made a amazing episode about it about accepting people who are different genetically in that way.

Those 3 where not bad people they didn’t seek evil or Malice they genuinely wanted to help. But instead the show just kinda thrown them under the bus and never talked about them.

They didn’t talk “normal” they didn’t have “normal” behaviors. So start trek just saw them as broken and unfixable.

They could have helped the war if they had help with there disabilities and understanding there problems and strengths too.

But the whole genetic engineering thing and eugenics felt kinda weird throughout most of old star trek. Always felt “off” in a way.

Eugenics is bad and all. Not debating that. But how they didn’t seem to have little to no neurodiverse people in old trek kinda wasn’t as good in that way.

But it was made in the 1990s iirc. We know more about it now a days then we did back then.

Also seeing properly made autistic people in start trek now a days always makes me feel seen and heard.

Yeah I understand that. I am also neurodivergent too. And honestly that episode just bothers me about how they are betrayed with the 3 “genetically altered” people. It felt unrealistic because those “problems” is something therapy and just accepting them as who they are would work wonders on those 3 people.

I don’t hate that episode but I dislike it at most. They could have had it where they was at the start just how they was and slowly Bashir actually helped them and helped start fleet understand that just because they are different genetically doesn’t necessarily make them impossible to help.

Horrible and suicidal. So normal for me. Thanks Amerikkka

My dog and my cat helps me at most, however do to the fact I’m in Amerikkka and disabled. It’s impossible for me with my circumstances I have to be happy.

However my animals keep me just above borderline unaliving my self.

My animals do make me smile every day. Especially my service dog and how quirky and weird she is and does the most stupidest funniest stuff sometimes that I always get a kick out of.

My cat is the man of the house, constantly yelling, complaining and think he owns the damn place. He doesn’t give a shit about me but absolutely loves my dog, he’s very much a stereotypical man. Which is to me fucking funny because he’s a small ass cat so I can just scoop him up whenever and cuddle with him.

Overall it’s borderline but I’m still here … At least for now.

Roaming chess gangs got me surprised and hilarious thinking of stereotyped " chess nerds" going around as gangs.

I got tired of YouTube videos on Lemmy. It’s always just copy pasted title of video and link to YouTube. I hated it

On Voyager app I added a blacklist on anything with YouTube in it and it cleared that problem up a lot. No countless YouTube ads from accounts that just post there YouTube videos for more views

Some collages sell there old computers when they get new ones. There generally very cheap. No hard drives and not super old but kinda old. You could buy a couple there and just fuck around with them.

I have catch phrases I use constantly

For instance I like to say “that’s offensive… to someone… somewhere… probably”

Or. “That’s what she said, wait no he? No they!”

I kinda saw that as just there young and not experienced yet. Also it’s the first time the academy has been made for a long long time so the strictness of it all I would think wouldn’t have been as high before the burn happened. But I didn’t really pay attention to that. Can’t get into the drama type stuff. But valid point though

Fuckora,valcANUS, iquitlo, igiveup(for gleba).

So standard names.

There’s other things then that? What? How do I upgrade my screen for that?

Kidding aside, I watch screens like mostly all day long as I’m disabled and living in Amerikkka. It’s the only real entertainment I can do. Zero income and cars are mandatory in Amerikkka as well as lots of disposable income.

If I could I would but society forces me into watching a screen all the time.

Options for accessibility like having the start menu in the bottom like in kde and stuff around that. I absolutely can’t handle the whole screen being covered to.open the apps drawer

I was expecting some satire YouTube content, not a actual legit show. Now I have something to add to my watch list.

I also blocked YouTube links because of the extreme amount of reposts of YouTube videos on here

I buy the same extremely cheap food because I live in Amerikkka and food isn’t a human right here. I survive on 190 USD in food a month. So I buy what’s most calorie to price ratio that I can eat. Usually ramen pasta Roni and rice and potatoes and for a extra treat some cheese sometimes.

Been living off those items for years waiting for disability to get approved (going on 10 years as of 2026).

You know what’s wild? I’m overweight, I have a high BMI, not because I eat to much. It’s because I’m disabled and can’t afford nutrients foods and what I can afford is high in calories. If I eat less my stomach goes into a revolt because of lack of food as it’s incredibly hard for me

Anyways I don’t buy bulk. And can’t afford more then once a month of going to the store so on food stamps day I go and get everything and then stay inside tell the next month or doctor appointment,

That makes sense. If I could get a matt one I would as the colors and how vibrant they are, are not really a priority for me. But this makes a ton of sense thank you

Accessibility that reddit stopped supporting because of paid API bullshit years ago.

Based

Fucking hate Napoleon Dynamite so I get that. Also godfather I agree with too.

As someone who is aromantic and asexual. Feelings and sex are not always entwined. But communication is extremely important so just. Well. Ask tell them your feelings and how your not sure what’s going on. Hopefully there not just using you for sex (without your consent)
