Did anyone get invited to the Signal chat and care to share screenshots of all their emoji? /s

"They say we can't shoot certain animals anymore, unless they're posing an immediate threat. Therefore, before we shoot somethin', we have to say 'It's coming right for us.'" ~ Uncle Jimbo, South Park

He'll try to stop/derail it if he can't claim ownership of the results.

😁 That was one of two scenes that came to mind

Alright, backtrack to base program and make it optional for either program (EMH or ECH) to be able to extend/retract leg length as needed. As a doctor, this could be useful in situations where there is no operating table to extreme heights, and as an ECH, when one must tower over another.

The latter issue should resolve itself, but the former issue seems to be a persistent personality trait. 😄

No, just an upgrade in his programming: EMH -> ECH -> EHGH (Emergency (or automatic) High Ground Hologram)

His excuse (in retrospect) was "Alien technology did this to me, so how can I refuse?!" 😄 Plus, the mass surveillance existed on the ship before him and all crew members seem to be fine with that when signing on. Given who he was before and during the event in question probably caused a few people, like Deanna, to ask Geordi to do in her quarters what he did in the conference room for privacy.

Trump (paraphrasing) - "...we take from many locations if we feel there is genocide or persecution going on..."

It seems though that this administration (surprise to no one) is picking and choosing who it accepts and keeps. To reframe a famous Jerry Seinfeld bit:

JS - "I don't understand. Do you accept me as a refugee?"

Trump's US - "We take refugees, we just ran out of care (for you)."

JS - "But being a refugee should be able to keep us here to protect us. That's why you have a refugee system."

Trump's US - "We think we know why we have refugees."

JS - I don't think you do. You see, you know how to take the refugees (should you accept them), you just don't know how to keep/help/protect the refugees. And that's really the most important part of the refugee system: the protecting. Anybody can just pretend to care."
