Gender is irrelevant, unless you are concerned about romance options. Agent's girl is voiced by Jack from ME 2 and 3. Clothing styles too, I suppose. I'd say try Fem.

I've lived in Seattle my whole life on minimum wage. The average here is 120k. Trust me when I say, you can survive on your own if your willing to live with people. Otherwise you throw away all your money Just to live. The 15 is an insult. And if places around us are worse than that than god help the bottom workers of this country.

It's hilarious, because Data gets laid in that one episode. Which means even the asexual android is getting more action than Geordi!
To be fair, the dude is a total creeper.

lmao thought i was the only one who thought this.

he goes full creeper mode in quite a few episodes. the time he has to recreate the ships engines in the holodeck with the holo engineer proceeds to give the holo engineer her real personality in hopes of getting romantically involved. and the episode where he had to go through some chicks personal logs and he catches feelings and he fucking tells her lol.


And remember when he actually ran into the real engineer, pretty good.

Not a big fan of the first 2 seasons. There are some hits but mostly misses, especially since they have Troi playing the part of spirit healer, Wesley playing the part of annoying good willed idiot, Yar playing the part of tough female human, Beverly playing a rather strange part as helpless girl in love with Picard that they didn't really make work well, and Riker being maximum Riker at that point. They fixed a lot of issues with these characters later and also brought in other characters to really help round things out. I'm not big on Barclay either, but there isn't really any redeeming done for him throughout the series.


For me the show felt more militaristic than what your describing, I don't really find that to be flaws in the characters, but just a creative differentiation.

Star Trek in general has a running theme of fatalistic love and family relationships. Everyone either dies or leaves to the other side of the galaxy.


The actors are really important too. The cast was a perfect fit. Right off from the very first episode.

I think I will skip ds9, and voyager, I'm a sucker for staying with the original artist, so no Roddenberry, no me. But I did watch all of the early 2000s enterprise show.and there is a new show in the works with Patrick Stewart in it I hear. So I might check that out. Discovery too.

I cannot remember that episode right now?

For data I assumed it was the make up, sometimes I just thought the actors were getting tired of the lack of quality between the last few seasons. even sometimes picard will show up for five minutes in a episode. Than disappear entirely. And he's the main character. I noticed all this stuff happening right after roddenberries passing.

Nice your getting me pretty excited. So far I think the quantum episode is my favorite so far in season seven.With the cake scene. Crazy bearded riker, that added some serious thoughts about how things could of gone. Warf hardly if ever gets an episode, and freaking Wesley showed up! Great episode.

One thing I've noticed here and there is that data or some other character might disappear for an entire episode without any explanation?

Some of the most silly episodes I think would be maybe be the data cutting troi cake one. And to to To Romulan Tasha yar stuff, I was like wtf, still funny. And it was good to see her.

About midway through season 7, the last season. For me so far, the show went down a little bit, or a lot, after season 4. However I did just watch that warf quatum episode yesterday. And that was an awesome episode!

Seasons 1-3, every episode was awesome, well thought out, and to my surprise well written.

Seasons 4-5 shows averaging out, but the episodes are still good.

By the end of 5 I saw a drop in the quality of writing, and significance of the stories were being vastly toned down. Example, in season 7 the federation found an old vessal they'd lost that contained unique cloaking technology they'd might eventually use against the romulans. A treaty between the romulans and federation dictated however that the federation isn't allowed to research cloaking technology to keep peace. There is more to the story, but overall its a very simple story. This was the last episode I saw but this has been a general feeling for a while now.

The first 3 seasons have some insanely awesome stoties!

Overall I love the show. Im going to watch the original series next. Than the movies

Playing through Breath of the Wild now and it definitely captures that same feeling of playing through OOT.

Huge open world with very little direction. So many different things to uncover. Exploration feels really good and the world reward you for it time and time again.

For 20 years now theyve been trying to recreate OoT to the letter, instead of capturing the feeling that the game gave.

Now lets see if they spend another 20 years trying to recreate BOTW.


Feels more Majoras mask to me. Oot never felt really too mature to me. The tone I mean.

The FBI already investigated Russia did they not? How else would they know they did it.


If you watch the first trump, Putin meeting, question sessions. Putin says people under him leaked the information. He didn't identify who. Though he didn't say it was illegal because of a law/agreement that exists made between the u.s and Russia created sometime in the 90s? He sited some example of how the u.s has once utilized that agreement once recently. He stated that technically Hillary was doing something illegal so he was within his rights to aid the u.s by leaking that information.

Honestly, I'm sure that's just the tip of the iceberg

The investigation is primarily focused on Russia's interference in the 2016 elections. Russia has already admitted to leaking that Hillary stuff during the elections. But sited a law designed in the 90's between the u.s and russia that makes that leak legal supposedly.

Trumps involvement, etc, is all secondary.

sci fi fan, but never watched it when it aired.

Started 2 part ep 1 last night.

basically the same characters from the movie.

One thing I'm realizing is that these star gates are a way better method of interstellar exploration than flying a space craft around the galaxy getting into god-knows-what.

Ep.2 was really good. surprisingly good. Seeing Kowalski get it at the end was sad. and the Goa'uld is fucking creepy tentacle-porn.

on ep 3 now; basically mongols in space.


I've seen all the seasons many times years ago. Its a fun emotional journey. Enjoy
