Oh! And by the way, based on recommendations I read the DC All In Special and thought it was good! As a huge Legion fan, DID NOT see that ending coming though! Will be starting Absolute Batman later tonight.

Since finishing my Enterprise rewatch, I’ve been alternating between the OG Justice League animated series and the anime One Piece. It’s been interesting. Two cartoons could not be more different. 😂

I finished season 3 in my Enterprise rewatch, and I don’t know if I want to go on to s4. It’s the weakest imo, and I just don’t really know if I want to see any of it again. Might just move on to something else.

I started to correct someone who said “duck tape” instead of duct tape, but then I remembered there actually is a brand of duct tape called Duck Tape, so now it’s impossible to know who really doesn’t know it’s actually duct tape and not “DUCK TAPE”!!! 😫😫😫

I don’t understand why they think the existence of gay or trans people is so hard to explain to kids. When I was a kid, I asked my parents “what does gay mean?” They said some men like other men and some women like other women. I said oh ok. THAT WAS IT. 🤷🏻♂️

Well damn, I searched and found out Marvel HAS used this name as the name of a mutant team, but not one with their own comic. Oh well, no sweet Disney cash for me. 😂

Oh crap I just thought of a title for an X-Men comic that is so good I can’t believe they’ve never used it. I need to go trademark it so Marvel can buy it at some point. 🤑🤑🤑

Man this week’s Alien: Earth is GREAT. All the “lost boys” get to show their chops. Great stuff for Olyphant and Samuel Blenkin. But it’s Babou Ceesay who really knocks this one out of the park, wow what a performance. I’m hooked on this show.

The ending of Enterprise “Cogenitor” infuriates me. Trip handled things in the wrong way, but for Archer to act like it was all his fault, even though they told him they could not go back to the life of being treated like a slave, and he sent them back anyway, pissed me off to no end.

Watching Enterprise, “Cogenitor”. I had forgotten that Andreas Katsulas had appeared on Enterprise. I miss him.

Theory: Alien fandom is more rational than Star Trek or Wars fandoms because Alien has traditionally been a franchise led by women.
