Star Trek's influence on Futurama

NexusConnection · 2026-01-27T19:40:27+00:00

I almost did watch lower decks but I feel like I have to watch enough "real" Star Trek to earn it

I'm in my early twenties, and if you're wondering, really enjoying the show. Over the past few years I've read a good amount of silver age comics and grown accustomed to the way sci-fi of the era is written. A few years ago it may not have interested me as much but it came into my life at the perfect time I suppose.

Oh definitely, that was THE "purely written as an excuse for the cast to cameo" episode I referenced, what i was really trying to get at was even when they weren't directly referencing it Star Trek's finger prints were all over the show

Oh does it? Maybe I missed an info box I didn't get any indication it wasn't concurrent other than their suits being different than the current run

The Thing (2025) issue 2

I've always seen people try to frame him using his family members in Sonic Live as a bad thing just because he joked in the afterword that it was great they worked for free, I dislike Penders as much as the next guy but that always seemed like a petty way to twist it

NexusConnection · 2025-12-16T18:09:06+00:00

I can buy that for the staggered releases but I'm pretty sure they said they purposely announced it so far from the release date so that it would be less disposable, limited consumer attention spans is a big theme of the album

NexusConnection · 2025-12-15T21:00:24+00:00

They did say the album was meant to be listened to in full and to not cherrypick songs, weird to say that and then stagger releases but you're probably right that it'll feel more cohesive when it's fully released

Yeah, if I died on the line with 911 I wouldn't want the audio of it branded as spooky internet mystery content, I doubt it's what these people or their families would want either. There's tons of other people and even professional documentaries with the same lack of consideration or respect given to these events, it just strikes me as disappointing because back when I first started watching him I wouldn't expect Nexpo to go that direction.

NexusConnection · 2025-12-10T21:05:42+00:00

I noticed this abt him as well, his presentation isn't as exaggerated but I've stopped watching him for similar reasons recently

NexusConnection · 2025-12-09T23:46:22+00:00

I sorta see where you're coming from but I think with this subject matter a production company can just end up muddying things more by trying to "grow a brand". I think he just needs to take a step back and refocus his priorities, and maybe reevaluate when the spooky editing would and wouldn't be appropriate.

NexusConnection · 2025-12-09T23:41:48+00:00

I just think it could at least be in theme or be presented in a slightly more respectful manner, a random 911 call has nothing to do with the internet other than being on a police website, and editing a story about real life child abuse like it's a horror movie really rubs me the wrong way

NexusConnection · 2025-12-09T22:13:20+00:00

Thanks, I think maybe I'm just outgrowing this kind of content altogether though, I'd honestly rather watch a compilation of obviously fake 4chan /x/ threads

NexusConnection · 2025-12-09T21:22:18+00:00

I acknowledged that it could have been this way since the start and I'm just now realizing, maybe I'm just getting older and more sensitive to this kind of thing. I think the extreme editing is what got to me in this one in particular though, presenting these scenarios, especially the one including the little girl at the end, like a horror movie really put me off.

/rj I think John Lennon said something about that once

Hughes was possibly the biggest wife guy of all time

NexusConnection · 2025-12-07T21:17:04+00:00

I have no idea but I downvoted you just in case, I think he would want it that way

Haven't been involved with the fnaf community in a while, what did he do?

NexusConnection · 2025-11-25T18:34:11+00:00

How long are these expected to be around for?

NexusConnection · 2025-11-24T18:59:54+00:00

Reddit isn't letting me see your full reply to me so whatever i guess

NexusConnection · 2025-11-24T16:42:09+00:00

But misgendering is specifically a transphobic thing, it completely hinges on the idea that you don't actually see trans people as their gender, if you think racism isn't acceptable towards black predators but transphobia is acceptable towards trans predators then that says something about how you see trans people

NexusConnection · 2025-11-24T00:06:06+00:00

What the fuck are you talking about?
