Senior Chief Petty Officer. Starfleet is in my blood, and I’ve spent my entire adult life in service to boldly going.

Keiko and Molly are my favorite humans, but Transporter Room 3 will always be my favorite.

Just don’t ask who what’s in the pattern buffer.

  • For drinking pure water, we use a brita tap filter, and a sawyer filter straw, and just have it gravity feed into a pitcher. The pitcher usually doesn’t last a full day.

    For cooking, we just use the tap filter and a cheap gravity filter with a reservoir. No need to go all out when you’re boiling the water lol

    The Sawyer filter can be cleaned by forcing distilled water through in reverse, it unclogs the straw/membrane filter, but it only works for so long. Luckily the sawyer still works like a charm after thousands of gallons.

    Disclaimer: I have not been testing for bacteria or other contaminants, I just go by taste and swap filters when something tastes off. I have no proof this filters everything, but neighbors have gotten sick around times when boil advisories go out, when we’ve been healthy the whole time. Could just be coincidence.






  • The people I see being the loudest and most visible about how “we need to keep ALL speech allowed in every place ever” are almost always the ones getting removed from places because of the insane, dangerous, or just outright incorrect thing they spout.

    The last one was a transphobe who got ejected from an aquarium by cops because he decided to follow some trans people around to yell at everyone with children that “the (slur for trans people) are here to r**e your kids” and was screaming about free speech as three security guards literally dragged him out the doors.

    Not sure what he expected to accomplish, but these are the people yelling about how they should be allowed to say things on a platform/in a place because it’s not literally illegal to say them.
