If.... . ......... # Gaza Isn't # Stalingrad Isn't under siege Isn't an open-air prison and # UniversalBasicIncome WON'T allow more people to work If... We've conned ourselves that all Jews should be Zionists  That all real Jews are Zionists  That Anti-Zionism is the same as racism  That Islamophobia isn't a form of racism  and that Rachel Corrie is an un-person, unlike the Skripals  (then) We've just collectively abandoned all notions of time, logic and causality to launch ourselves blindly and unwillingly into George Orwell's "1984".

The Gzilt Prophet Briper Drodj and (Tursensa) Ngaroe (Hgan) "oldest person in the Culture" QiRia (dam Yutton)* are actually the same person. Because.... why the fuck not? The Werpesh actually evolved on Earth. Because.... w hy the fuck not?   This means that (probably) all the humanoid species in the Culture novels are descended from those Werpesh who opted out of Subliming. Any technology left behind was quickly appropriated by other civilisations.  Most members of the-150 member-United Federation of Planets are planets colonised by the thirty or so actual members, these being the home-worlds of the various Federation species. This-kind of-explains why everyone aboard Federation star-ships looks human. Obvious fan theory: R2-D2 is a Culture (Special Circumstances) agent. Second obvious fan theory: Homer Simpson is an Idiran. *of the Buhdren Federalty, one of the civilisations which founded the Culture "...

A stoned baby visits London. What if Trump meets the Queen and the first thing he says is "If you weren't so old I'd rape you". What if he asks her why she killed Diana Spencer? If we ignore Donald Trump does anyone really think that he'd just GO AWAY? And, even if that were possible, how does one go about this without using terrorist tactics to hijack the mass media?

The Klingon empire..... .......almost joined the Federation but left as a result of a military coup which ended their brief experiment with democracy. Planets conquered by the Klingons either joined the Federation or became part of the Klingon Neutral Zone .  The series "Humans" and "Space: Above and Beyond" are set in the Star Trek universe. The AI War was later referred to as "world war three" and was an attempt by the Synths to increase their number. The Klingons are really Augments, genetically modified humans who left Earth during the Eugenics War. These Augments conquered a number of planets and created the Klingon empire. Elements of the conquered culture's religions ended up becoming adopted by the Klingons.  Vulcan Intelligence deliberately started the  Earth-Romulan_War .  This was done by providing Earth with Vulcan technology. When Earth ships started exploring and setting up outposts near the Romulan border, the Romulans attacked ...

Q both created and manipulated the Borg. They/He did this in order to prevent the version of the Federation in the Mirror Mirror  universe from coming to power. Without the Borg , the events of Star Trek:First Contact  would never have happened and the United Federation of Planets would become the Terran Empire. The Borg also made an alliance between long-time Federation adversaries the Romulan Star Empire. This allowed the Borg to invade Federation space by passing through Romulan space (the first time round) and is the reason for the Enterprise-E being ordered to the Romulan border  in  Star Trek:First Contact . Elder Romulan politicians and officers who opposed the alliance were ousted (and probably assimilated) in a coup, allowing ambitious officers like Sela to come to the fore. It makes a weird kind of sense for the Romulans to ally with the Borg, if only to keep the Federation on its toes. This means t...

Star Trek's  Data had a field commission before attending Starfleet Academy. This website points out that    Data  joined Starfleet shortly (2341 CE) after being rescued but was still at the academy in 2378*. If both dates** are correct then perhaps Data didn't become a officer until 2278 because he joined as an enlisted man. At some point either he was required to serve on the bridge or as part of an away team. Both require an officer's commission to participate so I would imagine that Data was given a field commission by his commanding officer (the captain of the Trieste?) in order to do so. To be promoted further Data then had to attend the academy. It is possible that Miles  O'Brien went through the same process but that he declined academy attendance in order to take the position of Transporter Chief on the USS Enterprise-D. On closer inspection I appear to be wearing loafers. *The first series of Star Trek: The Next Generation a...
