cut and tr are like the wonder twins of text munging

Form of truncated whitespace! Shape of single whitespace! 😂

How can you be so close to right about þis and still be wrong?

Honest answer: I’m sloppy on mobile

Better answer:

sort | uniq -c has entered the chat 🤣

Also every Ben Stiller romcom (and most his other movies too). Dude’s got a hangup on cute blondes, we get it already.

I finally got a chance to watch it and I thought it was great.

An overdue homage to both Enemy Mine and The Arena, feels like they really cooked with this one 🔥

I love the ending with Ortegas’ epiphany that her new reality is that one of her friends killed one of her other friends.

Other than that bizarre found-footage episode, this entire season has been fire. Somehow they’ve managed to give us more of the crew in 3 seasons than disco ever did, and I’m loving it.

I have such high hopes for the new academy show after what I’ve seen in S3, bring on the next trek golden age!

Hey it could still work as a high school musical episode of the new academy show

Disco was so unhinged that a musical would have been amazing.

Okay, now here’s your big captain number where you sing and dance about shooting stamets out the airlock…and action!

Has the statute of limitations passed

I hope not. I saw single film and it was fucking grimy.

They are selling a blockbuster franchise and thus do not wish to offend anyone… so they invent a whole new breed of terrorists… atheist terrorists. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

It’s pure schlock for those that bring a foam finger to the movies.

It was seven seasons long, and they all connect from the first episode to the last one.

That finale, so well done, so unjust 🤌🧑‍🍳😘

Hey I’m also behind everyone else too, I’m glad to see a chance to chime in.

I consider this to be the absolute best “red shirt” episode yet. These are my reasons.

Ensign Gamble was introduced in prior episodes; no last-minute-hey-meet-airiam contrivances.

The episode starts with Gamble reading his log, as though he is framing the entire episode and foreshadowing his survival.

The threat was menacing and inscrutable, like an Armos with better presentation. But also sad, Gamble merely picking up that orb shows how fragile life can be even in the space future. He just gets iced for no good reason like Yar, because ultimately space is scary and dangerous.

Dr MBenga suffers more trauma and loss, as he should. Every redshirt was probably somebody’s protege and certainly leaves void we rarely get to see ( eg TNG Lower Decks). Closest runner up is Trip getting all tore up over ENT casualties.

This is how to kill an away team member and have me care about it.

It’s a good distinction to make that the characters were much more interesting than the story we saw.

I looked at a list of characters and I rank 4/7 of them as interesting, but sadly half of those were killed off :(

Space Hitler: 👎

Space Common: 👎

Quasi: 👍

Zeph 🪦: 👍

Garrett: 👍

Fuzz 🪦: 👎

The second book, Claw of the Conciliator, is the hardest slog with the most confusing ending (but is ultimately rewarding when it ‘clicks’).

However the third book, Sword of the Lictor, is the best in the series. So many of the best moments are in this book, as well as some of the most famous quotes.

For me, the masquerade ball at the Archon’s palace is the “buckle up” moment for the rest of the story.

For a real trip, restart book 1 immediately after finishing book 4: there is so much you will see know that you know what to look for.

Also matey, the audible audiobooks are amazing 😎

Viva la fringe 💉💊🔬⚗️🧪🧬

The buildup to s2e15 “Peter” is great sci-fi and great storytelling, they promised and they delivered 👌

Wow, some of these are genuinely good, so evocative and visceral 👌

She had a deep, throaty, genuine laugh, like that sound a dog makes just before it throws up.

McBride fell 12 stories, hitting the pavement like a Hefty bag filled with vegetable soup.

The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.

amazing!

Really tho it’s the disk space and not the performance for me. 250gb, less OS/system/applications/etc across two people quickly shrinks to like 60gb each.

The real game is the storage Tetris I played on the way to the install button 🫠

Haha I wish, but I have a ps5 and a mac 🥲

I got nightreign yesterday but reading this is giving me some of that good fomo now. Congrats

I still enjoy a lot of these other games but I really feel like “souls like” is thrown around pretty loosely on anything that just has a similar combat style, but none of those other hallmark traits.

Look at me, I have intricate hitboxes, annoying bosses, and big doors that open slowly: I’m the soulslike now!
