The sequel trilogy should have been about trying to actually govern and defend the galaxy and rebuild the Jedi Order without falling to the mistakes and temptations to take shortcuts as in the past. About being different than Palpatine even though it's harder.

I haven't gotten past the first couple of scenes. I think part of is that there a lot of people online saying I have to like and another group telling me I have to hate it. I might need to wait for the noise to die down and give it another shot then. Prodigy was YA. I'm middle-aged. It rocked.

He wants the transporters, warp drive and phasers but none of the rest of it. Essentially Elon Musk wants the Terran Empire from the Mirror Universe.

Funniest thing to me is that I liked Wil Wheaton much more as asshole scientist Isaac Parrish on Eureka than I did as Wesley Crusher.

If it's still available you should seek out Warren Ellis's Freakangels, which is basically "What if the Michwich Cuckoos were disaffected twentysomethings?" It's really good.

Gay dudes are getting their own longform version of Red Shoe Diaries. But... Red Shoe Diaries was never all that good.

Pretty sure that's true. Here's one. ICE is actually a front for illegal Demarkians. Real Americans need to citizen arrest them - especially the white ones.

Not just classic literature. I've read a good bit of Lovecraft yet never had a real chance to drop "squamous" into a conversation.

Public school. Probably circa winter/spring of 1983. And it was from a VCR in the library, I think. We still had the student handbook that told us where the Student Smoking area was. That's where the 14 year olds could smoke. I was not one of those 14 year olds.

Yeah. I remember my 14 year old self developing a weird crush on Olivia Hussey at the time of filming 15 year old self when my 9th grade English teacher showed our class the 1968 Romeo and Juliet. Which included the nude scene.

Haven't seen it yet, but I've got three days off coming up so I'll be able to see the first two episode and then the third one coming Thursday, so that'll be cool.

It was a disaster that occurred which killed all warp travel for a long time. It was mentioned in ST: Discovery. Do NOT go looking for actual details because it'll make Starfleet Academy seem retroactively stupid.

1 I quite liked Skyrim. It's highly customizable but also skippable.
2 Anything unskippable. No, game, I really don't want to customize the length and color of my character's pubic hair. I just want to start killing orcs now.
