    It also just flies in the face of the tagline of the series. Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations. Applies to the shows as much as people. They’re allowed to be different and change things. Stagnation is death.

    Nah. I’d say what ruins the spirit of Star Trek is when people see a Trek they don’t like and the first thing they do is just complain about it. The new shows do not and cannot ruin the spirit of the old ones. They still exist. They stand. Unchanged. Character development, whether you like it or not, does not hampen lessons learned or impact from the older shows.

    Let people enjoy the new shows in peace. Not everything requires a negative comment for literally no reason, completely unprompted.


  • I like Adam but he keeps saying something that rubs me the wrong way. He consistently says that Jamie was never the butt of the joke and he didn’t make fun of Jamie in a cruel way.

    Meanwhile I was re-watching Mythbusters at the same time and Jamie repeatedly saying, on camera, that he is actively bothered by certain mocking jokes that Adam would make and he wishes he would stop it but he won’t.

    Felt really strange hearing Adam say that minutes after I finished an episode where Jamie was genuinely bothered.

    And they can fuck off. America is completely incompatible with Canadian values. The Democratic party is so far right leaning that they’re almost a 1:1 to the Canadian Conservative party. Combine that with the demographics and Canada would immediately be thrown into a rightwing spiral.

    No thanks. If they want to join Canada they can emmigrate like anyone else.
