Resistance is Futile: Why We Love to Hate the Borg
Recently, Netflix revealed the results of a survey on Star Trek episodes, which found that some of the most re-watched Trek episodes included, surprisingly, some from Star Trek: Voyager! This came as a shock to many apparently, because the continuing hatred towards Voyager is irrepressible. The Mary Sue couldn’t understand these results, while io9 was outright baffled by these findings. Noticeably the list doesn't include any episodes from The Original Series, Deep Space Nine or Enterprise – the exclusion of the former two has left the Star Trek critics community reeling.

What the Infinite Time Loop in “Palm Springs” Can Teach us about the Current Pandemic
Let me set the scene: It won’t be hard since we’ve all been there—some cocky, smirking white boy approaches you on the day of your sister’s wedding and “accidentally” gets you embroiled in his drama. And your really can’t refuse because, as I’ve mentioned, it’s the day of your sister’s wedding (and since this is like the fourteenth month of the pandemic you’ve probably re-watched the Godfather at some point, right?), and also because as a feminine presenting person you’ve involuntarily internalized the aspects of the patriarchal system of which you are indelibly intertwined. All this is to say, you’re used to doing all manner of emotional/ existential/ theoretical physics-adjacent labor for men who think they are too cynical and cool and quirky to actually give a damn.
