Kinda fucked up that “Star Wars Zero Company” doesn’t have a colon but “Star Wars: Galactic Racer” does. I won’t even get into “Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order”

at @mothership.blog we can publish a personal essay about the 1999 star trek game Birth of the Federation and there doesn't need to be some sort of "timely" reason or justification for doing so and i think that's beautiful

I am the universe

Things were neither better nor simpler for me in 1999, but it was easier to play Star Trek: The Next Generation - Birth of the Federation.
