Exactly! Don't get the overreaction to the word when it's not being overused.

Swearing in has always been what they could get away with. Same with sex. This is Trek in the 21st century. It isn't for the faint of heart or resistant to change
The way I see people carrying you would think they were swearing every other word. And I find it so funny at the idea of people wanting a Tarantino Trek, as though he would have no swearing in his films...
Don't be silly: the whole point of TV is babysitting.
Very respectfully, it's the parents' job to raise the kids. Not the TV.
And if they need a babysitter, they get a real babysitter. I used to be babysat when I was little when my parents went out without me. I later babysat kids sometimes myself. That's how it's done.
When I did babysit, I tried to engage with the kids. Interact with them. Try to have fun. Come up with things for them to do. Plopping them in front of a TV is the lazy way of doing things. Extremely lazy.
Well, by doing that it keeps me employed so yeah...oh, wait, no, that's a terrible idea!
Very respectfully...I was joking.
Very respectfully it isn't all that funny since it is rather true.
I thought things were funny BECAUSE they were true. Your human concept of humour continues to be quite illogical...
Slight tangent.
I think it's amazing how many kids these days are involved in after-school activities. Way more than when I went to school. I'm guessing it has to do with both parents working full-time jobs.
It's a good thing because of the realities of today. And with the sports/athletics, it gets kids physically active. When I was a kid, I went outside all the time. Now I think they're more connected to electronics than ever, so you'll end up with a lot more kids who are out of shape.
Pokemon Go is a good hybrid. It lets them move around while playing their game.

I am getting more interested in VR and the like to support more interactivity. It is a struggle, especially right now.
For all the pearl clutchers.......I guess you had NO problem with this 30 years ago:
Kirk : Damn it Spock! God damn it!
Spock : Captain, what have I done?
Kirk : What you've done is betray every man on this ship!
Spock : Worse I've betrayed you. I do not expect you to forgive me.
Kirk : Forgive you? I oughta knock you on your goddamned ass!
Kirk : Damn it Spock! God damn it!
Spock : Captain, what have I done?
Kirk : What you've done is betray every man on this ship!
Spock : Worse I've betrayed you. I do not expect you to forgive me.
Kirk : Forgive you? I oughta knock you on your goddamned ass!
Some people would flip out over that particular one long before they would over the word fuck.
Indeed.
Seems like only when it suits their argument.......
My parents raised the TV and I came out just fine.
Gives looking up to Kirk and Spock a whole other meaning.
Older Treks had characters talk like real people. No one on Discovery talks like a real person, least of all Burnham who speaks in statements.
