Biden: End the tipped minimum wage.
Tipping also disappears.
Servers: Not like this!
I could watch Boimler hop in the saddle and exclaim "Riker" over, and over...
LD is full meta jokes about things in universe. Little jokes like this 'behind the scenes' is a great joke too.
Don't forget the words of our leader of His Majesties Loyal Opposition, and possible future PM: "My view is that we need to engender the values of hard work and independence and self reliance. That's the solution in the long run -- more money will not solve it."
He's apologized since, but you as they say, you understand how someone truly feels the first time they say something, unfiltered.
2/10. I get the impression that they couldn't afford good writers, but the production heads could afford a LOT of cocaine. The end result is a Trek-ish setting around the biggest Mary Sue trope ever written against a character that they could not ever get up to 'likeable.' Watch as Star Fleet Officers constantly break the rules, run off without communicating effectively, disregard orders, or just plainly talk-back with amazing levels of snark to superiors. Somehow they are all written up as heroes instead of all being removed from duty and forced to spend years in front of councillors for their war PTSD... or time-travel PTSD... or mirror-universe PTSD..., discipline and corrective actions for their MANY examples of insubordination, their ship broken up to figure out space-mushroom instantaneous-travel in a post-dilithium universe, remedial training once cleared to return to figure out the changes in the world around them after the jump, and even then being kept on a short-leash because they obviously can't be trusted: they don't even fully trust each other and have demonstrated time and time again that they make the wrong decision because of their own ego...
The Canadian naval custom of naming ships after locales started in WWII, most notably as a alternative naming strategy for the 'Flower Class' Corvettes. While the UK found great utility of the thought of a German U-Boat getting sunk by a HMS Pansy, Canada wanted to give a sense of involvement in the war, so that the people of Chilliwack can feel a sense of pride when their HMCS Chilliwack participates in the sinking of U-744, for example. That cuts both ways of course, like for HMCS Lévis... The result of being able to fund-raise and create Navy Leagues to assist in the welfare of sailors at that time significantly helped with the life of RCN, RCNR and RCNVR sailors at that time.
In LDs though, the name 'Parliament' class is a bit odd. If they are naming after places with a Parliament, Toronto makes sense because Queen's Park is here, but Vancouver wouldn't have a Parliament. The capitol of BC is Victoria...
I agree. To think that all those suffering Lyme might not have contracted the disease if we had continued offering a Lyme vaccine...
