You joke, buuuuuuut https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2013/12/launch-code-for-us-nukes-was-00000000-for-20-years/
The USAF has denied this, multiple times.
I do not believe them.
Mainly because I know how people were during the cold war and have no doubt in my mind that the thought process was "nobody will ever access this without a reason, so let's make it super quick and easy or we might be radioactive slag before we finish typing"
The mere fact that it's believable is a problem.
Luckily, a legal "official act of the president" can work on more than one person.
I'm not saying it's a great choice, but it is there.
Sometimes life gives you shitty choices.
People talk about being there “for” someone. Here being there “with” him is more important.
When I'm depressed, having someone sitting on the couch in my living room scrolling on their phone is infinitely more meaningful to me than someone who is miles away and texting me a lot or offering to help with things. It's probably part of my neurodivergence but having the person close in proximity while at least sort of paying attention to the room makes me feel less alone than having 10 people trying to check in on me all day.
Assuming you spend $10 on avocado toast every day, as well as $75 on eating out for every meal, $20 for Starbucks, and ALSO assuming you have $150 worth of monthly subscriptions:
It will take you 25 years to save one million dollars. That's assuming you never get sick, never lose a job, never need to buy a car or have major repairs, or basically any kind of surprise expense or setback that could wipe out savings.
To be the richest person on earth, you would need to save that money every year for over 6 MILLION YEARS
Life is one endless torment after another, soooooooo.......

Nobody had decided to co-opt it for their shitty ideals yet.
Some people should really meet my transporter pattern buffer...
One of my wife's friends gets really upset when people call it Twitter for some reason. She doesn't even use it. Just gets irate and reminds everyone the name was changed so if you want people to know what you're talking about you should call it X.
Strange hill to choose...
Well that's entirely dependent on whether the Borg completely negate the death star weapons.
You only get a couple shots on any given frequency modulation of your energy weapons.
So as long as they have like.... 6 or 7 ships? They're good to go. After losing two or three ships. Just keep shooting until the death star goes boom.
If they hide inside a cargo ship and get tractor beamed into one of the bays, then I'd say it's only a matter of time before they control the entire death star.
While my wife watches them, I find myself asking "what was the point of adding that into the show?" too often.
It really does feel like the show is just going "And get a load of THIS sad sack, piece of shit, worthless, spineless, insecure little fuckwit who's just THE most unpopular at school, and work, and all the cool people HATE them ALL BECAUSE [generic reason that 95% of people can relate to]"
I'm sorry show, but we don't need to know if the murderer had dropped a scoop of ice cream at the park when they were 27.
Personally I like "Shit tends to clump together."
And "the turd doesn't fall far from the asshole"
