That seems like a little much - there's plenty of foreign media that produces worthwhile content.

Blacklisting certain outlets, on the other hand...

Dominion Review is a Canadian publication providing novel and dissenting perspectives on issues that matter to our country.

Oh.

And look at that, the site's editor has been published in...

-The Epoch Times (19 times!)

-The Financial Post (4 times)

-The Vancouver Sun (twice)

-The Western Standard

And other publications that I'm sure are highly esteemed and worth our time.

I guess they think "respectful and firm" is their best shot at taking a stand without alienating their base.

I don't think it's going to play.

The overall advisory level remains green, "Take normal security precautions."

 

If anyone's going to this thing, we'd be very interested in hearing about the experience!

I don't mean anything, as I didn't write the headline.

hopefully it’s not just about seeing these characters eat it.

It really does sound like a spin on the Suicide Squad or, dare I say it, Section 31 premise.

There's also a spaceship on the show, which I think, I hope that's not a fucking secret. I have been known—I’ve had a bad experience with oversharing, and I hope that wasn't an overshare, but it's fabulous.

I think Frakes is in the clear here - this tracks with Becky Lynch's announcement that she would be part of the "bridge crew."

STAR TREK: RED SHIRTS, kicking off in July, is the start of an all-new heartrending Star Trek five-issue miniseries by writer Christopher Cantwell (Star Trek: Defiant) and artist Megan Levens (Star Trek), featuring Starfleet's most intrepid and doomed crewmembers: red shirts. Now, finally, they get their own story.

Led by an experienced officer embedded on the snow-ridden planet Arkonia 89, the crew of the U.S.S. Warren has a small window in which to pin down spies seeking to steal classified secrets and keep Starfleet data out of their nefarious hands.

They face threats not only from their faceless enemies but from the brutalizing elements and wildlife of a planet far from home. The red shirts’ lives and Starfleet's sanctity are on the line…and no one is safe.


Then, launching in August, is the five-issue limited series STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS - THE SEEDS OF DESTRUCTION from writer Robbie Thompson and artist Travis Mercer.

It's classic adventure tale with plenty of twists and turns as the crew explore an ice-covered planet and the scary secrets that are lurking deep beneath the surface.... Featuring beloved characters First Officer Una Chin-Riley, Security Officer La'An Noonien-Singh, Science Officer Spock, and Nurse Christine Chapel - plus, a new adorable robot sidekick named D6!


2025 continues the 30th anniversary celebration of the fan-favorite series Star Trek: Voyager with the STAR TREK: VOYAGER - HOMECOMING, a five-issue limited series launching this September, from co-writers Tilly and Susan Bridges and artist Angel Hernandez.

Captain Janeway and the crew of the U.S.S. Voyager are back for one final mission before they head home. The limited comic series aims to offer the final resolution that fans have been waiting decades to witness.

This story picks up just moments after the final shot of the series! The final shot of the Emmy award-winning series featured the iconic ship approaching Earth before the screen goes dark... But what if just moments after that, there was one last emergency?

I just revisited the scene from "Red Directive" in which Burnham is riding on the top of Moll and L'ak's ship - at the end of the sequence, she leaps from the ship's hull as the warp field collapses. When she and the ship enter "normal" space, they both seem fairly stationary. Burnham is tumbling a bit in her EV suit, but she doesn't seem to have a lot of velocity.

I think we've seen enough to safely say it would fall out of FTL in fairly short order.

I don't think we've seen enough to say exactly what its sublight velocity would be - no examples are coming to mind.

Edit: as is often the case when the warp drive comes up, its worth pointing out that ships at warp pretty definitely have momentum/inertia.
