Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 12hBut also, I think it depends on who is engaging in this. If it's men, fuck off and go do something about it. If it's women and other victims then that's fine. Ball out girl. I'm behind it 100%. 000
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 12hSometimes I think the focus on (very justified) feelings of wrath and hate directed at the perpetrators of this stuff detracts from the actual problem because it individualizes the issue—but it's a systemic problem and until people (namely men) take responsibility for this continuing rape culture it 210

Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026This slop is actively training my brain to become blind to it. It's worse than metal band logos. Just inscrutable. I have to squint and focus SO HARD to look at any of it because my neurons are actively rejecting it. But unlike metal band logos, there's no reward for deciphering it. 010
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026None of these critiques are particular to Trek. Obviously this is just a societal shift brought about by the increasing power and influence of out-of-touch elites who hate the very foundations of good art in general and the ethical underpinnings of what has made Star Trek great. 010
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026But I can't get away from the weird myopia these modern Trek show-runners have where everything is about individual's internal trauma battles that somehow also undermine what those who experience trauma actually go through. It's all very SPONSORED BY BETTERHELP and I hate it. 120
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026But also the visuals were wanting. Everything center-frame w/ horizons conveniently cut off. Allergic to composing shots in interesting ways. Volume sets look fake and actors seem untethered because of their over-use. Lots of great performances undercut by effects. 110
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026Its writing was largely disappointing—making characters stupider in order to compensate for bad plot decisions or MCU-esque "well that just happened" moments. Doing so sacrificed what I love about Trek: competent people working together to solve problems and work through conflicts. 110
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 25/09/2026Looking back at this season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds feels like they really squandered opportunities left and right. They abandoned a lot of the core values of Trek for neoliberal pablum and nostalgia-mining. It's the same thing happening everywhere in society, but Trek used to be a bastion. 130

Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 04/09/2026An infinitesimal percentage of AI-boosters are using locally installed LLM's.

Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 04/09/2026Yes, I understand LLM's have existed for a LONG time and are useful technology. But also, getting mired in the specifics misses the underlying manner in which this stuff is being deployed and it's detrimental effects on the world. 110
Aaron Goodwin @theinfamous.gdub.online · 04/09/2026I hate to have to post about this, but the culture-wide acceptance of the marketing around so-called Artificial Intelligence makes it impossible for an ethical and intelligent person to have a reasoned conversation on the topic. 110
