I have a half-baked thought of my own.
That as the world slides into the maws of oligarchy, we need to see the Star Trek series that zooms in on the transition away from money.
They should face the music of class war with that Trek panache that made them great👌
There is this thing we need to find that thing. An entire season about finding that thing.
Ah yes, the season-sized adventure that feels like a bunch of yak-shaving fetch-quests in an rpg.
we must find the progenitor macguffin, but first we must find the treasure map, but first…
If we look for it we probably see this pattern is common across many trek episodes, but across a season they managed to do it in such a way that feels very obvious and hard to miss.
Give them Andor instead of Ahsoka; they need to make more content that speaks to the universal human condition and less about the cool worlds and characters they’ve got. The people want Squid Game and Severance, not another cinematic universe.

“On my last week [working on Discovery], I approved the Starfleet uniforms, which they tossed out, and rejected the Klingons, which they kept.” Notably, both the Discovery uniforms and the Klingons from that era proved to be controversial with fans
That’s the big what-if for me out of this article: what if disco had klingons that didn’t become radioactive to so much of the audience?
The whole klingon war felt like it happened in a single episode or two and I wonder how much of that was them concluding they made an ugly-sonic and tossing it.
Maybe we would have seen more Ash Tyler and less Book, who knows 🤷♀️
Bottom one looks like Enterprise D with no neck or arms.
I wonder if it came with the emergency saucer sep package?
The disappointment and dejection in his voice is perfectly appropriate for AI slop 😎
Imagine you could sell $39.99 shovelware to almost every single kid that watches Jimmy Neutron, because you’re gonna drown that show in ads for it.
The child then grinds down the parents’ resolve and the money is eventually spent.
I totally didn’t witness this first hand when sculpting feces into nickelodeon-shaped games.
They had me for a hot second because I saw Into The Breach on the app store 🤩
But you can’t even run the game without logging in to a Netflix account 🤮
I mean I had one, but fuck that noise I’m not cosigning on that bullshit 😤
I personally would love to see the fall of capitalism in my lifetime and the rise of “The Star Trek Economics” which IMO is a fantastic example of a realistic equal capitalism-free future.
To boldly go where money has no power over biology 💪
The ending was perfect!
Thanks for a much appreciated dose of whimsy to start my day 👍
I can’t believe I accidentally promoted proprietary software, when I should be promoting Ensign Kim!
Tell me we’re on lemmy without telling me we’re on lemmy 😂
Nothing augurs success like hearing about the “incredible talent” that just went to “other teams at EA” 🙃
Star Trek Star Wars, spacey scifi, same bullshit.
Offending user indeed!
But seriously this individual is dumping toxins like a Capt Planet villain. I felt gross after scrolling their profile.
I’m dying, this is a great rundown 😆🤣

He pulls back an entire fleet after Worf quotes Kaylee’s Kahless to him, which I felt demonstrated how Gowron deep down values honor.
After that though he decides to give Martok the Flavius Aetius treatment, despite how slimy it is.
Edit: kahless
Edit 2: forgot to agree with you! Ultimately he’s very cartoonish because he goes so hard with his lines and stares. Especially when he threatens to paint the future with blood if the council supports Duras’ heir.
I just looked up the Gowron episodes on memory alpha then looked up the ratings on imdb.
Sorry if I missed some, it’s a sloppy process on mobile.
Also some unexpected glory of my own
I like to think of Mirror Chakotay like, with giant eagles’ wings and singin’ lead vocals for photonic Lynyrd Skynyrd with like a Maquis band.
