According to the unofficial Hollywood miscegenation code, Latinas are the only people who are allowed to sleep with anyone.

But with popular culture being so balkanized, and so cut adrift in time, “cutting edge” is just another Spotify playlist, and not a particular important one at that.

Well, yeah. The other two are already dead. 

I thought he was supposed to be Topher Grace. Or are they the same person?

Why shouldn’t she be allowed to spiral out of control? She’s an adult. Plenty of adults act crazy and stupid, and they aren’t placed in indentured servitude for it. What’s more, she’s a pop star. Since when are stars not allowed to go crazy?

My thoughts exactly; specifically, 10 and Donna Noble. 

He was also one of the many reasons Season 1 of Altered Carbon was better than Season 2. I don’t know if he’s a better actor than Mackie, exactly, but he was a much better fit for the material. 

Zeno clash? You mean that game was real, and not a half-remembered fever dream?

I’d say that of the three, Lower Decks is the only one that really understands Star Trek. It’s a heightened, comedic version of Trek, but there wasn’t a single plotline or character there that wouldn’t have worked, with some minor rewriting, in a regular episode of TNG.

Oh, it’s even all right. Depressingly even.

Yeah, I’ve heard it referred to as “the Pretty Person Putsch”. 

Everybody looks human in the MCU - Asgardians, Xandarians, some of the Kree (did they ever explain why some Kree are blue and some are human-colored?), Jeff Goldblum. Just roll with it.

Helmets: it’s not just the law, it’s the Danelaw.

Well, yeah. That’s the point. One of the key weaknesses of Communist governments is that they’re so easy to pervert.

I’d be saying that, yes, there *are* circumstances and foes against which violent revolution is the morally correct thing to do. That’s political!

Have I mentioned how much I hate the term “F-bomb”? It’s just a fucking word, people, not an actual piece of explosive ordnance. I’ve heard (and seen) real bombs, and they sound completely different.

It’s the flashback scene at the Porsche garage that really gets me. I’ve lost a parent, and that manic “gotta do something!” feeling is very real. Anything to stave off the grief.

Gen X is used to being beast of burden to other people’s needs. Gen X have sad life, probably have sad death, but at least there is symmetry.

Just make sure to read and listen to every single ancient note and message you find in HZD. I’m serious. Investigating the backstory is the whole point of the game.

Boreanez was barely Boreanez when he was cast - his performance in Season 1 of Buffy was dire.
