Oh yeah, gimme dat corn, mayo, potato with option of shrimp or squid on it baybeeee! 😋

So are you like able to play games literally every day? If so, then I know it’s at least possible and I have something to live for.

That art style is sweet!

The soundtrack was really outstanding wasn’t it? There were several points where I was like, oh damn, this moment has some weight to it, thanks to the music!

Leslie Knope would’ve knocked this out of the park!

I freaking love it even though it’s punishingly difficult at times. Everything will be going fine then a couple unlucky developments and you’re in the shit. Gives you an all new appreciation of what Janeway had to deal with. 😆

The bg music is a little lame but I just turned off the in-game music and put on the VOY soundtrack collections in the background and it feels great.

In Japan, still Ontario from here too.

I dreaded the musical episode and I was wrong, it was fantastic. I dreaded the Lower Decks crossover episode and I was wrong, it was fantastic. I dreaded this episode and unfortunately, this time it was even worse than I feared.

I’ll admit, it was well made, the technical and performance sides of the puppets were outstanding and I genuinely laughed out loud on several occasions, but holy hell was it cringe from start to finish. Is this what anyone wants from ST??

I was so relieved that

but ffs, did we really need to waste what precious time is left with this series on… this??

The biggest weakness of Kurtzman’s era was that he granted way too much freedom to people’s ideas. Exploration and growth are of course necessary if Star Trek is going to survive (Even the 90’s shows got flak: DS9 stayed in one place and didn’t explore like the Enterprise, Voyager was going the “wrong direction” by coming home instead of going outward), but any artist will tell you that self-imposed restraint is what makes any work really spark. Some ideas should be rejected because they just don’t fit somehow and I’m shocked that no one realized it enough to put their foot down in this instance.

Anyway, thanks for coming to my TED talk. 😅

That kitty nuzzle tho… ❤️

I thought you were making a wooden Enterprise and this was the neck connecting to the secondary hull. My disappointment is immeasurable. 😆

Carla was the prom queen!

Oh yeah, my comments weren’t directed at you specifically, but at the general notion.

Sorry but this is silly. It’s like someone saying, “Well the bad guy in XYZ movie was a nazi which is problematic, therefore the movie is.” Like, what?

The presence of problematic ideas is not in itself an issue. In almost any instance that Fio is objectified it’s immediately shown that it’s a flawed perspective of the characters doing it, which goes for Gina too (though she’s a badass and knows how to use it to work the people dishing it out to her). The movie’s voice doesnt endorse any of it, and if anything rejects those things outright any time they’re brought up.

Is media literacy even a thing anymore?

Omg, Erika Moen from Penny Arcade’s Strip Search? Wow, I haven’t thought about that in years! She was great!

That was great! I thought I knew where it was going but it totally surprised both me and my wife and we were like, “Damn, that was pretty good!”

Very hyped for shore leave episode now, the crew has earned it!

Yeah it’s not terrible, I just wish you could send from them as well.

I have spent an embarrassing amount of time playing Syd Meier’s Pirates in my day, and I regret nothing!

I joined lemmy just a week or two before you started this I think, so your posts have been a foundational part of my experience almost since day one. I’ll always upvote even if I don’t have time to read em all. Thanks for doing it, it’s fun and part of what gives this place character! ❤️

You hush your mouth, Event Horizon is awesome!!
