@Lydia_K woke up and chose violence.

Mirror universe Alexander would probably still have two living parents.

I’m thinking either Jake has some sort of allowance or stipend, and is exaggerating when he says he “doesn’t have money”

I mean, having walking around money and having Mom-style "now that's walking around money" (i.e. enough to buy a Willy Mays rookie card) are two different things.

Somebody ought to ask Garrett Wang what he thinks about that. (Remind me 11 months from now and I'll do it at next year's Dragon Con if I get the chance.)

Yes, of course you should watch Star Trek! That goes without saying, regardless of your interest in Lower Decks.

(But yes, Lower Decks does make a lot of in-joke references. I imagine it's still funny without them, but you'll be missing quite a bit.)

BTW, Lower Decks is only one of three(!) animated Star Trek series now (with the others being Star Trek The Animated Series from the '70s, and Prodigy). I've only seen the first episode of Prodigy, but I get the impression that it might be less self-referential and thus might be a better introduction. Also, everybody says it's really good.

Bojack Horseman (Daria = Diane)?

for a 50+ year old TV show.

Fun fact: copyright in the US originally had a term of 14 years, renewable once for an additional 14. Under the standard the Framers intended, TOS ought to be in the Public Domain by now anyway.

For non-TNG, I really like Bride of Chaotica from Voyager, which has a similar vibe.

The Ferengi-centric episodes of DS9 are funny, if you're into that sort of thing.

Overrated! 😡

Wait, does that mean they indirectly got it from the Dominion?

[-] DrChaotica@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago

Well, that's optimistic.

Meanwhile, I'm over here imagining them summarily executing litterbugs.

Same reason lots of school principals are former teachers, I guess?
