Star Trek = Deep Fat Fried

Tonight, my podcast, Deep Fat Fried, took on one of the most influential and even controversial Science Fiction franchises of all time. In this episode we take a brief look at the life of Gene Roddenberry, before reviewing each Star Trek series and offering up our thoughts on each of the 13 films.

If you're looking to kill some time with a trio of stoner degenerates, check out Deep Fat Fried on YouTube. Or check out our audio version on the following platforms:

Is it no longer ok to use "mem" anymore? =D

@tjkirk - I think it's deeply ironic that here you are on Steemit and Scotty and Paul can't see the vision. You have partaken of the blockchain. The blockchain won't unite humanity. The blockchain will disintermediate authority by creating a massive equity drain in national fiat. This platform is about decentralization.

Anyway, welcome to Steemit!

You ultimately have two types of technocracy that can happen and sadly Star Trek fits neither model.

Centralized technocracy is your Blade Runner style future. The real dystopian shit where corporations / government own everything and nobody can do anything. The Borg and Terminator are also highly plausible scenarios when going down this path. Aliens would be instantly fucked if they showed up in this scenario as would employ a bug hunting military and show them some fear.

Decentralized technocracy is one where everyone abides by the technology but nobody really controls it. So we all just end up in some kind of libertarian scenario where it becomes increasingly difficult to form any kind of leadership at all and by the time we do Borg / Terminator / aliens show up and fuck us before we have a chance to defend ourselves.

Or the aliens are also probably in a similar technocracy in which we end up in a melting pot. Which would be the closest to Star Trek as possible but the least likely. Borg and terminator are most likely scenarios. Which means Aliens would be shitfucked right away.

Blockchain is part of the decentralized technocracy.

I think both of you are just slightly overestimating the power of blockchains.

I'm a little floaty tonight and read your comment as "equity drain in national fat." The rest of the guys will be over soon enough, and then the WORLD! Muah-hah-hah-hah.

Redemption 2 is one of my favorite episodes, and it has an amazing Data plotline where he takes his first command of a ship. I'd say Data maybe has the most memorable moments in the show for me.

Tj please do a DFF on The Secret... Being forced to watch this garbage on Netflix.

Star Trek is something you either get or you don't. Too many people aren't capable of critically examining society. Star Trek isn't for the masses because of the large portion of the population that's retarded... or just too focused on their own shit.

It all started in the 9th grade. It was the first day of school, I transferred schools. I didn’t know anyone at the new school. So I made 2 new friends on the first day of school. I was walking in the hall , when I bumped into this guy. He was tall,dark skin, nice asss smile, and a very beautiful voice. Words can’t even explain how handsome this dude was. As the school year went on , I just used to see him in the hallways. Than one day out of the blue,he told one of my friend that he likes me. Omg bruh the butterflies started running through every vein in my body. It was on a Friday , when he came up to me & asked for a hug. I was shooookkk. So I gave him a hug & we exchanged snapchats & everything. As time went on we became so close. I felt like this was going to be a forever thing. But don’t get ahead of yourself because before you know it, it’s over with. I was so in love with him that I didn’t want it to be over. But...

I acted like it didn’t bother me but deep inside it really hurted like a bitcchh. I loved the kid so much that every time I see him walking with a girl all I can think about was choking her. But I had to stop myself every time I thought that. Anyways I couldn’t take it anymore. I couldn’t stand him walking/talking/laughing with another female. So I decided to switch schools . And here I thought this was going to help , but it didn’t. I still had feelings for him. Every night ,every day he is all I would think about him. So I wanted an explanation from him. So I messaged him that night on Snapchat. I asked him everything. To be honest I didn’t get to hear what I wanted but that didn’t matter as long as it was the truth. So we went our spread ways. But I pray every night and day that I get him at the end of the day. I still have feelings for him. And my feelings just keep getting stronger and stronger as time goes on. But I am done chasing him.

what's this? lol

Steemit has some weird shit with the stuff people post lol

I think he copied it from an online novel or something. The dude probably can't speak or write English so he copied someone else's hoping to get lucky and get an upvote. Heck I even got a comment on a dlive gaming post saying that it was a "great article".

LMFAO

I just gave it a slight flag for plagiarism sake XD

Shatner is the greatest actor of all time. The way he. emphasises. words. so. they. have. a. full. stop. after. every. one. is. genius.

Well!!!!! @tjkirk really you are here to feed us with interesting contents...
Keep the good work going.

I never got into Star Trek. Maybe it was the German dubbing that put me off in the first place... #90s #lifebeforenetflix

What would be a good entry point if I wanted to give it another try now?
