I thought we had voted to end it. Did I dream that?
Googling it, it looks like it never got all the way through the legislature. Ugh...

Yeah, as much as I actually loved those movies (they were the gateway drug that got me back into Star Trek after only watching random episodes on syndication), I think their window of relevance has passed. Making another one would be pointless, unless maybe if it was some crossover with Strange New Worlds. But I imagine that would confuse general audiences horribly.
Yeah, in-universe, Starfleet seems to have a real nepotism problem.
As much as I love Conan, and enjoyed Conan's comedic style more than Ferguson's, I feel like Craig did better interviews.
I asked the same question out loud to myself when I saw Boims in the captain seat. Best guess: since the plan was just to tow the destroyer and throw it, they knew he wouldn't have to do much, and it'd give him a shot. Plus they might have taken his relationship with Mariner (and his rapport with the rest of the Lower Decks gang) into account. Lastly, it might have been a tactic for if the admiralty went through with court-martials. Whomever answered that hail in the captain's seat would be in more hot water than the rest of the crew.
Glory to you... and your TPS reports.
Yeah, I've seen this come up a couple times.
The problem is the English language doesn't have a word that works as well as "children" when talking about your adult sons and daughters. The technical best might be "offspring", but it has that same weird clinical sound as referring to people as "males" or "females". It'd be like trying to use "humans" as the inclusive replacement for "ladies and gentlemen." (That said, "humans" has a certain comedy value in its use.)
When I did that mission, they never specified the neutral zone was there, so I operated under the assumption we were in Federation space. When the birds of pray appeared, there was no option to hail (or they didn't respond), so I just beat them. And they attacked one at a time. Felt really cheesy, like they used Kobayashi Maru as a reference without actually replicating the test, because it also served as the tutorial.
Kobayashi Maru should have been the last mission, not the first. And it should be properly impossible.
Dying is scary, because it is often painful.
Death, not so much.
Yo mama so large, she's a "plus-sized" language model.
Same, unfortunately.
Also, I'm not great at carpentry.
Yeah, single-use plastics make sense in a medical setting. They have the added value of being sterile where you really need it.
Outside of that setting, it's just a convenience that is costing the environment.
