I shall forever be grateful for the proper portrayal of the daily planet crew 😍😍

Star Wars really said "Anakin Skywalker had issues rooted in childhood trauma that was not his fault" but also "Anakin made his own choices as an adult for which he alone is responsible" but ALSO "In spite of the truly evil things he chose to do Anakin was still capable of being loved and redeemed" and I think that's important.

Watching your entire society charge into nationalism and authoritarianism

“Pre Vizsla and his men have entered the palace. Should be stop them?” “How can we? The people are on their side now.”

“So this is how liberty dies. With thunderous applause.”

“I believe we are in crisis. The distance between what is said and what is known to be true has become an abyss. Of all the things at risk, the loss of an objective reality is perhaps the most dangerous. The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil.”

MEN, which do you prefer?

The aristocratic elegance of the small breasted woman,

The Nietzschean pro-sex, pro-beauty large breasted woman?

Now that more people know who squirrel girl is, I think nows a good time to share one of my favorite comic panels

While I think s7 makes several missteps, I will always love 07x05 'Selfless' because it gives us so many good moments with Anya. Before getting to this ep, you kind of assume that Anya's blunt manner is because she spent so many years as a demon and was out of touch with humanity, but then during the flashback to her being human, there's this line

I don't talk to people much. I mean, I talk to them, but they don't talk to me. Except to say that your questions are irksome, and perhaps you should take your furs and your literal interpretations to the other side of the river.

and you're like oh my god!!! she was always like this!!! medieval autism queen!!!!

One of my favorite aspects of Star Trek Lower Decks is actually giving some focus to the Orions.

The Orions are very much like the Klingons in that the original series just kinda made them up as a fit for purpose antagonist species, but while Klingons had their warrior culture thoroughly explored and given more nuance in Next Generation through episodes centering on Worf, the Orions were mostly forgotten. To be fair, this was probably because the concept of "sexy green matriarchal space pirates who use pheromones to control men" sounded pretty embarrassing in hindsight.

But with Lower Decks having Tendi on the main cast, we finally actually build on one of Star Trek's oldest minor species. And because it's a comedy show, rather than adapting the silly 70's ass space pirate matriarchs into something more sensible, they just play their culture entirely straight. It's a lot of fun. They're squeezing a LOT of Orion centric episodes into this show before it's over, you can really tell they're having fun with it.
