Just giving my opinion, but I did not care for the Orville. I’m a big fan of wonderment and adventure in Star Trek, with a healthy dose of exploration and philosophical consideration. In my experience, Orville spent all of its time on trying to be Star Trek: The Snark Generation and trying to make Seth MacFarlane look like a cool space captain. I think around the third or fourth time MacFarlane had said something incredibly offensive to the person he was meant to be diplomatically engaging with, but since he said it in his quick Family Guy aside voice it was apparently okay, that I got pretty tired of the show. It was way too much of a badly written ego trip for MacFarlane and not nearly enough science fiction fun. I was left feeling like the Orville was what would happen if Brian from Family Guy tried to write Star Trek, that it was more of mockery of science fiction than a positive addition, and I never went back.
In my further opinion, Lower Decks, meanwhile, is knocking it out of the park. I’ve heard a lot of good things about Strange Worlds as well, though I haven’t had opportunity to check it out yet.
EDIT: Yeah, I figured this would happen. Hooray the internet.
A fun read, even if it’s as substantial as smoke. The writer does his best to connect the dots of all the recent UAP news and sightings that have been happening. Still, his posts helped drive a fair bit of the engagement surrounding current events. The air of anonymity from places like 4chan really captures the imagination.
When I trawl the net for UFO stuff, what I see more than anything is people hoping for a savior. People hoping that aliens will save us from our economy, from climate change, from religion, from fascism, from war, from nuclear weapons, from disease, from Republicans, from Democrats, from progressives, from regressives, and mostly from ourselves.
I’ve been speculating that that fear is a driving force for a lot of the current UFO craze. We’re in a dangerous time, things are only getting worse, and people are becoming desperate for a superhero to come and save the day.
I think we’re more scared that there aren’t aliens, sometimes.
Depending on who you ask, they already are >_>
This has been the response to everything that’s come out since the Nimitz Incident. Bigger revelations have come out in the last seven years than in the last seventy. We’re tired, and we’re scared, I think. Aliens are going to need to really shake their cans if they want us to care.
Rupert Murdoch, to answer your question.
EDIT; I forgot this was the internet when I wrote this comment. Hopefully editing helps remove it more thoroughly.
They did last year as well. I recall there being some racy stuff that was being blocked out by black boxes placed by the admins, and people were able to track admin and mod accounts (like spez) that were placing pixels instantly with no cooldown. People were pissed then already, and the admin/mod response was basically “get wrecked we too smort lulz”
Place even last year was blatantly a ploy to give reddit more free and controllable content.
Looks like a wasp pretending to be a fly, really. Might just be the Beedrill shape it kind of has.
