I am deeply saddened to learn of Walter Koenigβs passing.
Although we did not know each other well away from the set, we shared the later seasons of the original Star Trek series and the six films that followed.
What I observed, and what so many fans have expressed over the years, was a man who genuinely loved the Star Trek community.
At conventions, Walter was rarely content to remain behind a signing table. He preferred to be among the people who had kept Star Trek alive for so many decades.
That kind of genuine connection is rare, and it will be remembered by everyone who came into contact with him.
My condolences to his family, his friends, and the countless fans whose lives he touched.

Jerry Coyne and Douglas Futuyma are right. The Neo-Darwinian Synthesis grows in strength and stature as more and more data arrive to fill in the details. Cries for a major revolution are a vanity trip..

"My daughter caught measles when she was seven. I remember not feeling particularly alarmed about it.
Then one morning she said, 'I feel all sleepy,' and she went into a coma. In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead."

Donβt fall for the fear campaign...what is MEASLES?...a fever, a cough, a rash, runny eyes & runny nose.
-Dr. Sherri Tenpenny
"The measles vaccine came out in 1963. In 1962, the death rate from measles was two in a million.β
"So it was not even deadly BEFORE we had a vaccine."
IF YOU FEAR MEASLES...
You must not know that even in the 60s, before the vaccine, the survival rate was over 99.9%.
You must not know that the MMR is a live virus vaccine & can cause measles.
You must not know that the MMR vaccine is linked to 2,657% MORE DEATHS than measles since 1995.
You must not know that it's a very mild childhood illness for well-nourished children.
You must not know that natural measles infection provides lifelong immunity, unlike the vaccine.
You must not know that there are huge lifelong health benefits to getting measles, including a lower risk of cancer, lower risk of heart disease & stronger immune resilience.
You must not know that the MMR insert lists over 60 serious adverse events, ranging from encephalitis, seizures & death.
You must not know that studies show Vitamin A drastically reduces measles complications-yet public health officials ignore it.

The US has long stopped to see freedom as a core value. Our core value is safety. Sanctified cowardice justifies regulatory capture, preventing us from exploring, building, trading, living. It's also the reason behind declining birth rates: we don't like to breed in captivity.

talk about a crosstab
"A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women."

Once you learn about "kid privilege" you start to see it everywhere. A class of parasites who don't work, who have all their needs cared for, and who don't have to eat vegetables. They get to spend all day learning and watching Bluey; meanwhile, I'm stuck paying taxes.

The doom posting is completely out of control on this site. Every third post is some blackpill thing. You need to chill out. Nobody knows anything, except for the people who are barred from talking about whatever it is or isnβt. (I did check my preps today thoβ¦ π€·ββοΈ)

I've come back to this account for a reason I did not want to come back for.
Rest in peace to the wonderfully talented Walter Koenig. There are no words to describe how devastating this is to me and many others.
The world is a little darker without him.
