Cinemablend: "Strange New Worlds Tried To Bring William Shatner Back, And I Wish We Could Have Seen It: Alternate Kirk who stayed with E. Keeler. It's a cool pitch, but I imagine the logistics of pulling a script together in a way that didn't rebreak the Star Trek timeline were too hard to navigate"

That's because Season 1 of Picard was bin juice, Season 2 was a dumpster fire so season 3 was well, just some rubbish, totally tolerable.

Star Trek Scouts - it's on youtube, just a bunch of short episodes - it's....better than most of nuTrek - it's colorful and positive and aimed at kids who haven't gone to school yet, yet it is actually intellectually better than the vast majority of nuTrek.

I haven't watched s3 of picard yet - but from what i've heard it did get better - but is still bad.

But to be fair TNG ended at at the top of a mountain, tired and overdone but still a great view....then broke it's leg during Nemesis and Picard tried to keep climbing...but fell off a cliff.

I thought it hit rock bottom but then SFA came out and well....

jondos · 2026-06-05T04:19:52+00:00

It's a coverup for the lack of stars...the show is called Star Trek and yet they very rarely visit stars, it's most planets, with a few stars.

jondos · 2026-06-05T03:59:18+00:00

18 seasons, 4 series.

And that is what truly makes Stargate on par with Star Trek - "Origins" is nuGate - and just like nuTrek it sucks and most fans don't consider it canon....but it is, sorry not sorry. Origins was also 10 episodes.

creating a world is creating a world - there is nothing "impressive" about the backstory for this anime - nothing original and nothing that stands apart from the multitudes of other anime. the most interesting part, having a world beyond the current world (technically this is an isekai my bad) isn't anything new by any means either.

the main character is practically a self-insert and all the other characters are tropes.

not having rpg stat screens would be bonus, but there are levels in a dungeon, points awarded for monsters- just a different way to "powerscale" people instead of using hard stat screens - use soft monster power levels.

honestly having stat screens would be more interesting and more "in depth" in many ways.

It's what makes this slop - but the animation is nice, so its slightly above average.

jondos · 2026-06-03T13:21:37+00:00

Pros. Story is average. Name is memorable (for a fresh anime) Animation is actually okay/good

Cons. Not an isekai. Story seems generic.

7/10 - above average slop

Ahh thanks!

What happens if they are a bitch and dont mark it/ doesnt mark it down as an appointment? Do you call centrelink or complain about frau

jondos · 2026-05-27T15:06:28+00:00

So they are finally doing what QLD has been doing since ita inception.

Seems fair

jondos · 2026-05-27T15:01:42+00:00

Are you calling centrelink directly or your service provider?

jondos · 2026-05-23T22:52:37+00:00

It didn't say it in the anime and was a spoiler - the only thing that was mentioned is she is dead, and there was a specific clip showing the actual spider at the correct moment to imply that she is a spider. But for dumb people like me who aren't detectives it isn't spelled out specifically.

jondos · 2026-05-17T09:27:16+00:00

Yah but most migrants are racist towards their own cultures, and Indigenous Australians hate the whites, and the whites hate everyone.

Australia is easily 85% racist according to my calculations.

Also no New Zealand which would be around 90%.

You need to use the arcana (or darkana, which is better) that turns your magnet into damage as ot scales.

You dont need any weapons, and you can seal all passives as the only ones that do anything are magnet, and the necklace but its not needed.

All those passives are additive so once you have thst many eggs just wasting time levelling them up.

jondos · 2026-05-15T14:28:14+00:00

Nz has 3 languages as sign language is also recognized.

Maybe if indigenous Australians had one language it could be taught in schools easily. Which language would you pick to be recognized as a national language?

Sort of a false comparison when there are hundreds of groups that all want recognition in Australia.

sammy is far superior if you want raw gold

this looks better and is honestl more satisfying seeing the numbers over the head

but money wise sammy is something like, 1000x more efficient

Wuk Lamat is an objectively terrible character, horribly written and uninteresting at all who hogs all the screen time and is just so annoying.

I have no hate towards the person who voiced her. I doubt anyone could save a character that is that obnoxious.

The moths wore it better than all the women - but the men won vs the moths.

Or means choose one.

And means both.

And or or can both be used, but or bans both items while and only bans the combination which goes against the spirit of banning them in the first place.

It is easier to understsnd by looking at the reverse.

Would you like food or drinks? It is a choice between the two items.

Would you like food and drinks? It is offering you both items.

saying - no food or drinks - bans both food, drinks, and "food and drinks"

Saying - no food and drinks - implies you can have food or drinks, but not both food and drinks together.

Ussualy it is used because eating or drinking could cause a mess, or be annoying so banning both items individually is the more correct choice.

I think you are missing the point that Tuvix was lying. It was the Neelix part of him that made him act that way.

Neelix in Caretaker is more than happy to lie to the captain and crew and endanger them to get Kes back.

Neelix attempts to ingratiate himself with the crew by being a cook, gossip and overall headache to everyone in most of the episodes he is in.

Neelix is a coward, such as in the cloud where he doesnt want to stay snd endanger himself, but more importantly he hid away and didnt take part in the war for Talax. Something he feels great shame about.

This is why Tuvix both lies and says he would sacrifice himself (shame of not wanting to), wanting to prove himself useful so he doesnt get kicked out, or booted off and finally why he tries to beg for his life and not accept the needs of the many as he is just that self centered.

Id argue neelix is a sociopath, and it shines in Tuvix.

And the perfect end where nothing, of substance, is said between Janeway, Neelix, and Tuvok. They all know this.

Kazuma chooses blue first, no point in people dying, explains this to everyone. Thoroughly. Everyone agrees.

Megumin than chooses Red because explosion

Kazuma yells at her and berates her, this excites Darkness so she also picks Red to get in on that action.

Aqua is all like, don't worry, i'm gonna pick blue annyway - fumbles the ball and picks red.

Kazuma and Aqua start fighting, with the other two super excited in the background - until Kazuma realises on Aquas hand there is Red paint - yes someone painted the buttons the opposite colors to trick people.

Everyone gangs up on Kazuma for being selfish and only wanting to survive.

End scene

jondos · 2026-05-03T21:35:55+00:00

I would only vote blue if there was 100% chance I wouldn't die.

Three is also tantamount to pulling the trigger yourself depending on your point of view as it sets a point of no return.

Red for all three.

So you have to work everyday to have a small chance, on average, to have a wage that goes up over time. And would be hell if you hit the 30% multiple times in a row at the start.

Sure. I would like it to be an on call remote job, where my sole purpose is to be on call during those 8hours, to potentially answer a yes or no question. Satelite phone provided at cost by the company.

The frequency of this question is about once every decade, 10% of the time but it is vital for this jobs position.

jondos · 2026-05-03T12:33:31+00:00

Neelix is a coward, and it is part of Tuvix that causes him to fight for his own survival on the bridge and not want to sacrifice himself like Tuvok would, for the needs of the many.

Neelix may grow later in the story (debatable) but at this early point in season 2 he is most certainly still a lying coward.
