If inflation has eaten away at your 6 figure salary that hasn’t been updated since 2009 imagine how the plebs making $7.25/hr feel.

Mariner is definitely down for anything. She’s dating the andorian Jennifer in a few episodes and she also went on a date with Steve Levy the conspiracy guy. She also dated an Anabaj to annoy her mom so…yeah.

She even says this in one episode (the Tom Paris one):

“Oh I’m always dating bad boys, bad girls, bad gender non-binary babes, ruthless alien masterminds, and bad Bynars.”

DS9 had Jadzia kiss another trill whose host happened to be a woman. TOS had the first televised interracial kiss. ENT had a pregnant Trip Tucker. Trek has always been woke.

I just want to understand this, sir. Every time a post is micturated upon in this fair community, I have to compensate the OP?

perhaps the mind flayer is seeing it’s own hand opening a holding pod?

I hadn't thought of that! Good call. It's very ambiguous no matter how you read it.

My brother and I used to put ice in ours. Better than throwing rocks since you can claim ignorance.

The Narrator says that mind flayer near Ragzlin isn't your captor.

This mind flayer's build is smaller, its garb plainer - a fearsome creature even in death, but not the one that tormented you.

Then the first time Ragzlin asks who killed it it shows you this memory:

You see a clawed hand open a holding pod - devoid of flesh, only darkness.

Then Dror asks a second time and the mind flayer responds with this memory:

You see a clawed hand open the holding pod. The murk clears to reveal a face. Yours.

So we don't have clawed hands first off. And we never opened a holding pod except Shadowheart's. So is the illithid making it up? Did Orin (or another doppleganger) pretend to be us? Those are my two guesses at what's happening.

They go to a star a few times. Troy "Butt soup" Barnes is a bit of an idiot though.

Per comments from Holmes himself, the idea for the name had nothing to do with Tolkien’s works, nor the movie. It was instead to denote royalty and lordship. I have seen nothing in any of the reporting to indicate that this had to do with anything other than the name of the food truck. The truck wasn’t going to be themed after the books or films. There wasn’t going to be any trade dress or vehicle wraps harkening back to those works of fiction. There wasn’t to be a flavor of chicken called “One wing to rule them all.”

So trademark holders being douchebags as usual. The Lord of the Rings isn't associated with chicken wings in anyway so how could consumers be confused?
