Man I don't know what to take from that episode. Interesting for Scott, nice to see Ortegas get more screentime besides flying the ship. And I guess that's about it.

Well, saw the episode. But all the going for shock and eek and ick didn't really impress, especially when the story basically has no resolution other than "beats us shrug".

That is already way more passion and/or giving a frak about Scouts than I could muster even if you paid me.

Well thank heavens, the anniversary year is saved. 🙄

Well I just watched it, but I don't know what to do with it. It just kinda...happened. Other than a few moments here and there, I didn't really get much out of it. Eh.

And I really don't need Pelia dropping more Doctor Who references. One time was amusing and enough.

Just saw an interesting bit on his Bluesky, Mike McMahan's story in this issue is the idea he had for how a season 6 of Lower Decks would have kicked off.

Naturally I'm watching debates about the canonicity claim break out in assorted places.

As far as I can find, the whole “it’s canon” claim comes from Webtoons in their press release, and no one from Paramount is being quoted making that claim. Unless there’s a separate Paramount press release I can’t find.

So this whole claim is just silly.

I find the idea that anyone is still talking about "Year One" with a straight face pretty frakking hilarious.
