"Well, why would you WANT to have a baby on Voyager?" It's their home? Their life? On the plotted course, this was going to be most of their lives. They were looking at 40+ years in the Delta quadrant before the finale events. Why WOULDN'T people be getting married and having kids?

In seven years, out of 140 something crew members, there was ONE marriage and ONE baby. Sure, some of those crew members are already married, aren't hooking up, but that's still only some. Neither Delaney sister got married on Voyager? Nobody else wants to have a baby?

It's explicitly said at the end of S5 that Naomi is the only child on board (pre-Borg kids), so there's only a small window for anyone else.

I can buy that 23rd century birth control is basically failproof, but no one else was trying? Tom and B'Elanna said were trying when they got pregnant.

I don't buy that in seven years in Delta quadrant there were only 2 babies born on Voyager, and one of those was Naomi Wildman, whose mother discovered she were already pregnant when she left Earth. NO ONE else on that ship got together and had a baby except Tom and B'Elanna?

I was rooting for the Mariners. I am sad that they aren't going to the World Series. That is what I wanted. That said, Blue Jays, you now have the chance to do the fucking funniest thing in 2025. Please win at America's past time, Canada.

Bring back my Nicole Kidman time, AMC.

I love this so much. Every time they cut down the Nicole Kidman video, I'm going to repost this (AMC sent Lionsgate a cease and desist over this! Obviously, it's still all over YouTube).

Scott Derrickson, do you just need someone to tell you it's OK to make a whole movie on Super 8? You should do it. I know you want to.

Phlox's Film Fest of Frights

Now showing: Saw (2004)

#StarTrek #StarTrekMemes #StarTrekEnterprise

Top panel: Its movie night on the Enterprise, and the crew are gathered in the mess hall to watch Saw (2004). On screen is a scene depicting Billy the puppet on an old TV. The subtitle reads, "Congratulations. You are still alive. Most people are so ungrateful to be alive. But not you. Not anymore."

Bottom panel: Phlox is in the audience, eating popcorn. He smiles, points at the screen and says, "I'm going to start playing that little clip from my patients as they come out of a successful surgery...or Lt. Reed after a cold."

In his early years on DS9, Bashir was an insufferable womanizer. His character was saved and allowed to develop properly after he realized he couldn't compete with Morn.

Hey, guess what I had a dream about after watching directly before going to bed? It wasn't like a nightmare. Just a creepy dream.

Watching The Black Phone Kill Count to refresh my memory before seeing the sequel tomorrow. I saw it right after it came out on streaming.

Can Peter Jackson go back to making weird little horror movies? Like, would culture be able to accept him making them?

We're now onto season 4 of The Bear. Officially into Bear I have not seen. I'm excited. And stressed out. Because this show is stressful.

I would like to play some ambient background noise/music on YouTube.

OK, let me clarify. I would like some ambient background noise/music on YouTube that doesn't have obviously AI art attached to it.

Basically, it's me looking for videos that are a couple years old.

Man, if I had a nickel for every time Harry Melling was in a movie where he fell in love with a guy in a biker gang, I'd have two nickels.

I can't even be like, "I'm not writing these things I should be because I don't have any ideas." I'm not writing the things with very solid ideas, either.
