Like the Washington Football Team or Utah Hockey Club, we’re just waiting for the focus group data to refine the name
- Comment on I am sick of seeing the rich and powerful on my screen. Where are all the TV shows about normal people? 5 days ago:
Well put and I agree, for that same reason I really didn’t like the movie though. Its message is basically summed up as “you can commit murder but only if you’re rich enough.”
The brothers should have drowned in that submarine is all I’m sayin
- Comment on Valve's invite-only Deadlock has an even more exclusive top-secret hush-hush version 6 days ago:
Being able to host your own game and tweak the rules however you like is a feature that’s sadly lacking from most console games nowadays, Halo 3 was the peak with Forge
- Comment on Apex Legends writer gets laid off 24 hours after the character she wrote is revealed, because that's what the games industry in 2025 looks like 6 days ago:
That’s how I feel when I watch Star Trek. I won’t be alive to see the Phoenix warp into space but I’m hopeful future generations get there.

Around the time Victoria established Torchwood, but yes I meant the monarchs of Transylvania. Who bestows the title of Count upon him?
- Comment on If you're a broke vampire, just say that 6 days ago:
Ok but that then begs the question, who are the king/queen?

Bob, I’ve been asking for a raise for 175 years now, this is not cool.
- Comment on Hollywood Is Cranking Out Original Movies. Audiences Aren’t Showing Up. 3 weeks ago:
military-themed movies turning off more leftist moviegoers? I feel that way to some extent
Maybe but not because I’m liberal, because we’re shit. The fact that “The Covenant” exists is FUCKING INFURIATING to me. I signed up to put my ass on the line, knowing any flight out of CONUS had a return ticket. We not only told the terps we’d take them to the American dream but made them put their lives on the line…then flew away and made a fucking movie about how it’s too bad they’re all stuck in the suck.
- Comment on America is fucked 3 weeks ago:
Distracted drivers are a serious problem in more ways than one. A couple weeks ago I was 2nd in line at a red light, only us 2 in that lane and several more in the other. An ambulance drove up behind us flashing and it was immediately clear the shortest path through the intersection was for our 2 cars to clear out. I put on my hazards and starting alternating lights and horn, while the person ahead sat blithely scrolling through their phone while the ambulance and I were both laying on the horn and didn’t move until the light turned green. Even then, didn’t pull aside so the bus had to weave around him. The lack of situational awareness and empathy on the road is sadly lacking.

Riker will have sex woth any and every alien he meets, the future boldly goes past gender norms

I guess that puts me on the rainbow? I’m gay for my gf, we’ll just add that under the +

Only if you let the fluid touch your balls, and this person seems to really know how to make woman wet
- Comment on Season 3 Teaser Trailer | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 5 weeks ago:
I’m one of those who unironically like Enterprise and its song, sometimes I’ll sing the first few bars just to make the gf roll her eyes. Even at its cheesiest its still better than the Burnham show featuring Starfleet as backup characters

The only part of Discovery I enjoyed was the time with Pike’s crew, SNW is a far better show and I’m excited to see more.

But can you imagine the scandal if one wore a tan suit?!
- Comment on William Shatner Confirms Talks for Star Trek Return at 93 Years Old 2 months ago:
Even though some don’t like the Kelvin timeline, Spock giving his last goodbye there was poignant and fitting to the story. I think Kirk said goodbye when he handed things over to Picard
- Comment on Just Finished Lower Decks 2 months ago:
They even poke fun at themselves for that when Boimler/Mariner time travels and remark how slowly and quietly everyone speaks
- Comment on Might be fun idk 2 months ago:
It is clearer on the nfl.com replay but also helps if you know his songs. The real high point though was the choreography and his shit eating grin when he stared straight down the camera to talk to drake.

As a fan of neither team, that Kendrick performance was fucking fantastic.
- Comment on What we all want deep down 2 months ago:
I want to be rich enough that I can walk down the street and just uplift people who need a helping hand. I also do not want to live in a world where the wealth disparity is so egregious someone getting a chance to succeed or not depends on my whim.

I’m certain the dolphins and mice do, we’re just not quite there yet.
- Comment on I liked Star Trek before it got woke. /s 3 months ago:
I mean Sisko kind of does when he describes how the Bell riots have to take place before we unite as a planet and join the Federation

The 1911 is still a fully functional and useful weapon, just sayin.
- Comment on Maybe, just maybe, a company that refuses to give you time off if you have a bullet inside of you is a really really shitty company 3 months ago:
Good rant. Sorry from this side of the border, I still can’t fully believe so many of my countrymen voted for the villain
- Comment on This is the life I dream of from my cubicle 3 months ago:
Technically correct, the best kind of correct!
- Comment on I'm seriously proud of this 3 months ago:
Conversely, I despise the film which tells the moral tale of “if you’re rich enough you can murder people and get away with it.”
- Comment on 2025 trailer be wild 3 months ago:
There’s a scene in Justified and similar in some other shows in the years after 9/11. Marshalls are looking for help on some homegrown organized crime types and the FBI tell them “sorry boys if it ain’t about turbans or bombs in the sand we don’t have the money or time.”
We just sorta never stopped that after 20 years occupying and bombing the wrong country and now we have a goddamn nazi infestation again

Jody jokes are as old as the military, but yeah this is some cringe shit that’s using a very old joke

I can back into a space at full speed, lined up perfectly while barely touching the wheel. Parallel parking is something I do so little, I forget how to line up every time and feel like a fool
- Comment on Tawny Newsome Says Live Action Star Trek Workplace Comedy Will Explore Life Outside The Federation 4 months ago:
I noped out of that show after the episode where the entire engineering crew spends an hour trying to access the ancient secret data vault that is…some girls iPhone. Trek definitely has better humor as well as poignant and serious topics.
