Pretty sure they are referring to average annual temperature. The winters may get colder in some areas, but the summers are getting hotter everywhere, and to a bigger degree. So the average temperature will continue to trend up.

If the big bang had never occurred, queer.af would never have died.

Ergo: big bang killed queer.af.

They almost certainly picked it just for the joke.

queer.af = Queer AF = Queer as fuck!

It's like how popular the TLD of Guernsey (.gg) is with gaming websites.

I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even realize what country code the TLD was when they registered it.

Be advised: I am unable to log in using the Android app, Liftoff.

I first noticed content wouldn't load. I removed the account, and tried to re-add it. It simply spins its wheels endlessly with no error or connection. I cleared the app data and cache, and now when I try to add the startrek.website instance, it says "Instance not found."

I suspect the issue is with their app (looks like they haven't updated since July), but I thought I'd post here so admins would be aware, and in case any other Liftoff users are having the same issue. I see a lot of comments about Jerboa, so I'll be trying that app.

On a tangential note: I propose we ship the top 1% wealthiest people to Mars and make them colonize it.

We can send all the life sentence and death row convicts with them.

I will never understand how someone reconciles conservative politics with being a Star Trek fan. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

Wait, wait, wait...

Greece is just now getting around to legalizing gay marriage?

Greece?

Greece?!

Until they kill a beloved celebrity, there will be insufficient outrage to force change. And even then, it might not matter beyond the specific cops that did it.

Yeah, I do not get it.

Having grown up in a redneck community, I'm quite confident Trump supporters can at least make a functional pipe bomb.

Goes back before Reagan, even. Look at Nixon. His pardon from Ford started the trend that the president was above the law.
