    Female Jem'Hadar.

    Tell me you've never watched DS9 without telling me you've never
    watched DS9.

    The Jem'Hadar had no females. Or even males, since they didn't reproduce sexually. They were grown in vats by the Founders. The soldiers presented with
    masculine traits like strength and aggressiveness, but they were neither male nor female.

    So to both you and the writers of this mess of a STAR TREK show, right back atcha: Tell me you've never watched DS9 without telling me you've never watched DS9.

    I just watched the DS9 'tribute' episode with the ridiculous hologram
    character trying to solve the mystery of Sisko's disappearance. It was drek as expected but what really had me lunging for the Stop button was the fact that they not only have the Klingon character doing gay flirting with another dude in the bar, but he's now prancing around in a skirt with all the other girls, too.

    That's it. I'm out. Let me know if they do a TNG tribute episode where Worf shows up, takes one look at this non-binary they/them Klingon and just beheads him on general principal. I'll come back and watch that.

    I've generally found something to enjoy in most of the episodes, but
    that one has to be the worst. My feeling was that the "what happened
    to Sisko" plotline under ran so they imported Russell T Davies from
    the UK to add some his author appeal stuff that worked so well in
    Doctor Who.

    You misspelled "retarded hologram".

    Don't forget the part with the trans/draq-queen serving drinks to minors!

    That's it. I'm out. Let me know if they do a TNG tribute episode where Worf >shows up, takes one look at this non-binary they/them Klingon and just >beheads him on general principal. I'll come back and watch that.

    THAT I would watch!

    Did you know they alter the voice of the actor playing Gay-Den so he sounds remotely close to a Klingon and that he wears 4-inch platform boots? There's
    a funny scene in the enxt one where's trying to run but looks ridiculous because he runs like a girl wearing high heels.

    Up till now I had a grim fascination with it, thinking that just playing the odds of probability, they might come up with a decent episode by random
    chance. But no.

    Another problem with it is that, even if they didn't have all woke leftist social justice messaging, it's essentially just boring. It's kids going to college. There's no exploration, no galactic political and diplomatic minefields to deal with, no deadly enemies to overcome, not even any space travel or starships. They're on earth going to school. How in the hell is that STAR TREK?

    With the new Seedance AI software, I could make one that would look absolutely real.

    I donrCOt know whatrCOs more amazing - the manmade AI STAR WARS videos all over YouTube, or the fact that somehow theyrCOre not being sued into oblivion the minute they get posted. Disney's lawyers are probably being treated for
    strokes and nervous breakdowns.

    No one can get the genie back in the bottle. YouTube has become hard to
    use from all the slop. AI may be the invention which destroys us, not by rising up but by flattering and amusing us to death.
