  • Look. I have enjoyed the last season. But the show has never escaped its fatal flaw of being in its own way. The finale of season 4 was great Trek, and this season has been good.

    But it took how many months of retooling to give us the last season? And I appreciate finding a stride and having the show cancelled (as someone who will defend ENT constantly for this I’ll hear it all) but this isn’t the same case. They tried so many ways to make DIS work and it has hit and missed in different ways, but tying it to one story over the course of a whole season and making that the glue, and not allowing for other characters to be established, is still there. I still have no idea who the majority of the bridge crew are, and I feel there are characters that are overused and others that are criminally underused (can we just get a Reno spinoff please?)

    This is a swan song, but personally I’m glad it gets to end on a high note. But let’s see it for what it has been.














  • I mean, that’s kind of exactly what Hubspot is supposed to be used for? It’s a remarketing tool so at the most basic it’s good for advertising subs you may be interested in, at its worst it’s used by MBAs to justify destroying a platform to sell products to people with the guise of the information coming from fellow users, but is instead coming from bots and corporate accounts using your data to sell you products worse than the ones you wanted in the first place, eliminating the trusted environment to at Reddit once claimed to be all the while showing you subreddits you have absolutely no interest in.

    Makes sense to me!
