There's a word for that but I can't remember. Like saying ATM machine.

I'm surprised I've never seen a kid named Atreyu.

What's crazy is that STE has a more classical theme song. They just only use it for the ending credits afaik. And it still has some stupid electric guitar because its the 2000s and its the FUTURE.

Idk if its true, the youtube edits seem fairly compelling, but I heard that originally the title scene was cut to "Wherever You Will Go" by The Calling. They either had to or wanted to change it because the second episode of Smallville used the same song for it's closing scene (which aired just weeks before Enterprise's pilot). What shits me off is that they went and added some STUPID ELECTRIC GUITAR RIFF to later seasons for, what, royalty reasons? Like they already had a turd and decided it was cheaper to stuff it full of corn and claim its a new turd than to pay a turd license.

frfr. We almost had the Federation-Romulan war with Jeffrey Fuckin Combs on the bridge of the Enterprise (as some sort of military advisor/strategist.)

Who's Stinky? You keep talkin about some guy named Stinky.

Either way is good IMO. Even if they just look at the pictures and imagine their own stories I have to believe that's good for a developing mind.

One of these days I need to go and read through the Calvin and Hobbes collection I bought for my bookshelf when it was on a steep discount. I remember reading them all the time as a kid.

This should be hanging in a museum.

The paper this article talks about was authored by an evolutionary biologist that wanted to talk about environmental science problems and social responsibility. Ignoring the concepts of personal property and ownership and stuff, think about this for a minute. 81% of Americans own a yard, but how many of them do you see growing crops in that space? How much more effectively COULD that land be utilized towards the common good if it were managed in some way? Or from the other side: the Alaskan government had to step in and put a halt on Bering Sea crab harvests for a few years because the numbers were critically low. Do you think all of the individual fishermen who are reliant on that income would have voluntarily stopped? Would they even have known the crab population was dwindling?

I'll allow it, but only if we can somehow put the same flashing red banner on top of politicians in real life.
