      This is for Another Life, Season 2. if you haven't seen it through, then obviously don't click past the spoiler tag if you plan on watching it, and don't reply in a way that ruins it for others:

      FUCKING SERIOUSLY?

      It's 2021. Do we seriously still have to deal with Bury Your Gays?

      Like -- really?

      The whole fucking slate save for one? At the beginning of the season?

      Jesus.

      I remember being so excited at the end of the first season to see where this one went. And I can honestly say, having gotten to the end of the second season -- I kind of hope this one is over, despite my love for KS and the story from S1.

      Disappointing.

        @derp I am still in the middle of it, but what I have seen so far is bad, and further justifies my 'Netflix is trash' stance on things.

          According to their president, Netflix can't be trash because they paid for Hannah Gadsby's last comedy special. Therefore your argument is invalid! Netflix has a gay friend!

            I'll come back to Anothee Life in a bit, really!

            Right now, though..

            I am GREATLY Peeved that Lower Decks is vewed as lesser than Live Action Star Trek. The Season 2 Finale is some of the BEST Star Trek in recent years, and it has had some quality competition, too.

                On the one hand, I am deeply amused by the idea of "what if Family Guy was in space," given Seth Macfarlane's open desire to do exactly that.

                On the other hand, and I know how petty this is, the proportions of the characters just upsets me. I know it's just a stylistic choice, but it gets under my skin in a way I did not expect.

                          Meh. The reviews for Eternals seem pretty meh at best. And I am not excited about the latest Ghostbusters either.

                          Come on studios, put some cool stuff out already!

                                    Also is there any hype at all whatsoever for Morbius?

                                    I know it's coming, it's a Marvel movie, but other than a trailer before Dune there seems to have been no attempt to promote it whatsoever.

                                      @arkandel Dunno. I no longer give a shit about Jared Leto after his behavior on the set of Suicide Squad, and will not watch his movies.

                                          I grew up reading Isaac Asimov's Foundation. Words cannot express how much I love that series, or the impact it had on young-Arkandel growing up.

                                          It all appealed to me. The idea of this vast, sprawling universe set in the vast future where humanity has spread to the stars but forgot where Earth resided, and the concepts it introduced to define what humanity even means. The way it drove the point - again and again - of intellectualism being nearly synonymous with pacifism ("violence is the last resort of the incompetent"), and the manner its characters as well as the plot showcased it.

                                          And then I watched the first episode of Apple's Foundation. Special ops teams coming in, guns blazing! Explosions! Poolside sex scenes! Right in the first ten minutes!

                                          ... Sigh.

                                            @arkandel Thank you for the heads up. I was debating on getting apple TV for this. The books are a big part of my upbringing. My father and I use to read them to each other, it is one of the books besides the hobbit and Lord of the Rings he used to teach me to read. Also, make sure I was nerdy for life.
