charliejane, 1 month ago Star Trek: Discovery is hands down my favorite #StarTrek of the 21st century. It's not even close. In my latest newsletter, I explain why I love this show so much, and why it embodies everything that's great about Trek. https://buttondown.email/charliejane/archive/star-trek-discovery-is-my-favorite-21st-century/

jens, 1 month ago @charliejane See, I understand all the arguments, but it just doesn't connect with me so much. Mostly it's because it takes the technobabble thing a step too far. It seems to have replaced semi-plausible SciFi ideas with pure handwavium. And while in principle that's fine, any show can do as it pleases, it constantly tears me out of my suspense of disbelief. I like everything you write about... but this destroys it for me. It kinda makes me sad, actually, because I'd like to like it more.

c0dec0dec0de, 1 month ago @charliejane long-term I think it’ll be my favorite, for all these reasons. Right now, what I need is Lower Decks.
