Mystique is actually his dad. TWIST!

You can install Bluefire Reader on a Kindle Fire and read epub books through that app. It's not as slick a reading experience but it's perfectly fine.

Didn't they do this in the 80s with the guy from Time Trax?

Can artists just not draw simple gloves, boots, costumes, etc. any more?

You don't HAVE to be, but it helps.

I can't sign into the Comedy Central channel on Roku, either. Jerks.

Yep, it's My Best Friend's Wedding. It's a pretty thorough deconstruction of romantic comedies - Roberts becomes the villain of the movie, realizes she was wrong, makes amends, and is satisfied that her friend has married the right woman at the end, with nary a male version of Kristy Swanson in Pretty in Pink to be…

So has somebody cut together a "characters welcome" style promo for Mr. Robot yet?

Phantom of the Opera?

I get being burned out, but I cannot wrap my middle-class brain around saying no to $60 million.

Hunt got something like a million an episode to do her last, post Oscar season. Usually you hear about salaries like that when somebody turns them down (Seinfeld, Julianna Margules when she left ER).

Naw, that's for your time! You earned that bump!

How about working with my Comcast/Xfinity service? Any freaking progress on that front?

Abrams also thinks it's scary when Spock gets mad and shouts, when the most terrifying Vulcan I can imagine is one who REALLY shuts down all of his emotions to go get shit done and deliver a highly logical beatdown.

It would have been cool if Voyager started to collect ships full of people from the Delta (?) Quadrant who wanted to emigrate to the Federation, and by the end of the series you've got this fleet of ships who want to start over in the Alpha Quadrant following Voyager home.

Voyager felt to me like Generic Star Trek. "Look! It's a spaceship! And aliens! You like spaceships, and aliens, right?"

Basically every single line of Act 2 of The Voyage Home is perfect. I have a friend who used to talk about wishing she could live on the (TNG) Enterprise. I get that. But as I get older I think I'd rather live in the middle of a delightful romp of a movie where most of the dialogue is at a right angle to what's…

I'm sometimes tempted to start an internet rumor that there's a take of that last line where Takei says "Don't call me tiny. Just call me."

"Your…associates are people of good character."

Roddenberry's quotes were so smarmy and gross I wanted to douse myself with Purel after reading them.
