Yeah but domestic terrorism itself (last I checked) has no criminal statute. It would be much easier if we had a law defining domestic terror and how to prosecute it.

Well it would be bad if we began eating soap. Right?

In that case I’m gonna blame Oprah Winfrey for that one.

Highly recommend reading the book by Jon Krakauer. One of the best books I ever read. I can’t remember if this comes up in an afterward from an updated edition, but Krakauer visited the bus. Apparently that location was well known to locals and very close to a road. McCandless isn’t as far removed from the populous of Denali Borough as the movie makes it seem. Of course this was unfortunately not known to McCandless, as it seems, based on his journal writings.

Krakauer at one point relates the story of McCandless back to himself by including a chapter about his time climbing Devil’s Thumb (Taalkhunaxhkʼu Shaa) in Alaska. That is whole-cloth an essay he previously featured in his first book Eiger Dreams: Ventures Among Men and Mountains. Of course this next part goes without saying: the book is better. There is lots more of McCandless’s life documented in the book that doesn’t fit well for the movie’s narrative.

I pretty sure it was public knowledge (even talked about in publicity) Dead Reckoning was two parts.

Well, that does mention it but not that one. Two people try to sell the milk.

Maybe I’m remembering wrong, but wasn’t there a Portlandia sketch about why raw milk is bad?

Apparently being the victim of genocide gives you a free pass.

 

The url links to the same press announcement from back in August. According to the post on the franchise’s official Facebook page, the event will in some way involve the U.S.S. Enterprise-D that will be unlike any other.

 
 
 

“What is a deuterium-antimatter reaction regulated by a dilithium matrix — or in the case of Romulans, a quantum singularity; or quantum slipstream which utilizes benamite crystals, though whether it is a fuel source is ambiguous and the subject of much speculation…?”

On the left, a Federation conference in 2372, which Dominion set off a bomb. In center, a conference of various Kazon sects, Trabe and Voyager discussing possible alliances. On the right is Kelvin Khan attacking a security meeting of high ranking Starfleet officers, whom include Kelvin Pike and Kelvin Kirk.

I am personally annoyed. The “Past Tenese” panel at STLV, did not happen at the scheduled time. I was at the convention, very excited for the panel. Anyways, Wolfe mentions being at STLV, so clearly it happened earlier in the day. Apparently the panel was pushed up and there was no announcement of the change.

 

Saw this on Mastodon but a reverse image search didn’t yield an answer to who made this.

 
 

Which ship encountered worse natural disasters?
