For those that don’t know, this is here because Robert Picardo was the voice of Johnny Cab in Total Recall. This is a choice deep cut! 🤌

I’d cry too. Have you ever used pans seasoned over years? I actually flinch every time I see that scene in the movies now that I’ve seasoned pans of my own. 😢

This actually looks pretty cool for a game of this genre.

You disgust me, O’Connor. You wanna know why you disgust me? 'Cause you’re a bleeder. You bleed too much. You’re a messy bleeder!

Are you sure it’s not just for the upcoming Voyager documentary? Kind of like how they did a few select scenes of DS9 for What We Left Behind?

Precisely, the grammar of cinema is not 1:1 with real life.

That said, I don’t mind making light of it for meme chuckles.

the fact that the camera crew seemed to like focusing on them being intimate makes my brain say, “this must be important to 23rd century humans in some way”.

Might I also suggest that another possibility is that until very recently, there has been so little gay representation on TV that merely depicting it at all, as Discovery has done, can feel jarring to some.

A friend of mine was complaining about the same thing back on Season 1, but I asked him if it had been a hetero couple shown brushing their teeth together or having a smooch would he have minded and he admitted probably not. We chalked it up to just not being used to seeing that with a gay couple on tv.

Just a thought.
