I am a fan of older Star Treks and kinda like older Star Wars movies. I tried watching those new ones (half season of STD) and saw two or three SW movies and it's just so bad. Why so much lore needlessly rewritten? Why the change of genres? Why are main characters so often bland and mery sue? What the hell is wrong with writing? Those new shows and movies are ST/SW mostly, if not only, by name, and only good quality IMO are effects, but that alone can't save it. 😞

At least there is Orville...

One of my favorite subs was a support group for heavy drinkers. I got bashed there a lot for gatekeeping. The thing is, it wasn't a sub for everyone, so when gatekeeping finally wasn't allowed it stopped being as relevant as more and more people just saw it as as a cooler version of r/drunk. Place sucks now.
