  1. Looked up the Star Trek thing on IMDB, just as I figured.
    The main is a female supported by a gang of negroes.
    IOW, a future view of a 21st century ghetto.

    Who watches stuff like that?

  2. Star Trek the original series had hokey “special” effects but some interesting plot lines. The Next Generation turned me off from the first few episodes when Picard ran away from a fight. I never bothered to watch the rest of the spinoff series. I think I have seen the movies but can’t recall the plots at all. One has Ricardo Montalban and Spock dies in another.

    This sounds like a mash up of Harry Potter transfers to Star Trek.

  3. Starfleet Academy.

    All you need to know.

    A Klingon who wants to be a botanist who gets in an interracial (different species) homosexual relationship and wears a dress.

    Didn’t need an article and video to figure it out. It’s toast. Stick a fork in it, it’s done.

    1. I wasn’t thinking about toast and forks, I’m thinking more in terms of lazy scriptwriters taking flying leaps over sharks. Just when you think the absurdity cannot get any worse, scriptwriters and the idiots who approve their work find new, different, and more unbelievable ways to increase the absurdity factor.
      I’m glad I didn’t know about Starfleet Academy, so I didn’t waste my time watching it.

  4. “Mammal ancestors laid eggs, and this 250-million-year-old fossil finally proves it.”

    Apparently, they’ve never heard of the duck-billed platypus.

    1. They wouldn’t have. People go into journalism so they don’t have to actually know anything about anything. They just explain what the people involved in the news event tell them to say (and yes, that’s the problem with Journalism today. Journalists should be suspicious old cusses with a bottle of Jack or Rye or, now Tequila, in their desk drawers).

      1. I think the requirement of a four-year degree and the concomitant debt that entails has severely injured the field of Journalism.

  5. One of three leaders of the discovery team is Professor Jennifer Botha (Evolutionary Studies Institute, University of the Witwatersrand, South Africa). Just thought you might like to know.
