JANEWAY MENTION! Bless.

Also, I bawled my way through Wonder Woman. TBH, I still tear up when she marches her bad self across no man’s land. That film is everything to me.

I need to watch the new Dr. Who. One of my friends in college tried to get me into Dr Who back in like… uh… 2010-ish? But I was like, dude, this is weirder than Star Trek and I don’t have the nostalgia factor around it to make me forgive the campiness, so… no thanks. But this new one sounds good, and I’m all about supporting the girl power.
