We’ve had two decent episodes written by women, it must be time to go back to all men for the rest of the season. Ben Rodgers, Ben M Waller, and Mike “Not a Ben” McMahan are taking us home for the next…

Can we stop with all this kink-based character design? Blacksad does it with no shame. Disney’s Zootopia/Zootropolis does it while trying to avoid the weird glances. Zelda does it with less of a wink for the furries, and now Lower Decks has given Rule34…

From the fascist Cardassian occupation to the pseudo-military operation alongside the Bajorian provisional government, and then the eventual full Bajorian operations of what was once called Terok Nor. Ask any fan of the franchise as a whole, the standout of that TNG-led…

You know how it is, blue people are always a trap for pansexuals. Look at Mystique, Gonzo, and Sully. Blue women with grey hair though, that’s a pansexual’s kryptonite. The only thing “worse” is buff blue women with grey hair in summer…

Really, we’re doing Riverdale with Star Trek, that’s what we’re doing now? This has little to do with “wej Duj,” I’m only just getting to the point in my advanced schedule to talk about Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, a vain attempt by CBS/Paramount to make young people like Star…
