It's been obvious for some time Alan doesn't really pay attention to the game he hosts (a trend in strategic reality competitions), so it's not surprising he's a font of terrible takes. #TheTraitorsUS

If they don't have similar trivia challenges on #Survivor50 as the one that launched Erik's historic downfall in Micronesia, they can keep it. #SurvivorRewind

It's not that Rob isn't playing a good game. He's doing well. It's the over-the-top fawning by other players and the audience when he just...sits there. Stephen and Mark get shit for being furniture, but Rob is an absolute block of wood. #TheTraitorsUS

What a beautiful DS9 tribute. It was so moving by the end, had to run to Wikipedia to make sure there haven't been any untimely deaths... #StarfleetAcademy

There's a difference between not saving someone (last week) and actively driving the bus over them (this week). Rob of the Island is playing like Boston Rob last season, focused on playing with Faithfuls rather than how to play with both Faithfuls and fellow Traitors. #TheTraitorsUS

There is a line in an upcoming episode of #StarfleetAcademy that hits particularly close to the chest at the moment:
'There has been a tragedy. Don't compound it with ignorance.'
Star Trek, on the ball as usual

Jenna is such an eloquent hater, I can't help but hitch a wagon to her for #Survivor50.
As part of my #Survivor50 preseason interviews, I had each person run down the entire cast of 24 players, assigning each one to Friend or Foe
Jenna Lewis-Dougherty immediately understood the assignment

He does not want Star Trek. He wants to co-opt the aesthetic of Star Trek to sell his techno-feudalist futurist wet dream. Star Trek hates men like him.
"We want to make Star Trek real," said Elon Musk.
"We want to make Starfleet Academy real so that it's not always science fiction, but one day the science fiction turns to science fact."

A woman, captain of a ship 😱
Just a reminder that we've come a long way, and that the reactionary whiners of today are just the latest in a long line. 🖖
