Jumpgate #53 - Messages from Earth

Sorry this one's a day late; been super busy on a video I'll have out later today that I felt a need to get out, as well as short film stuff. But speaking of which; here's the latest Jumpgate podcast on one of "the last, best" episodes of Babylon 5 before the everything goes to hell with Earth... but it sure is exciting to watch! And be on the lookout cause I'll have a fun video later this week for everyone to make everyone smile after so much darkness.

Star Wars The Mandalorian "Chapter 20 The Foundling" REVIEW

Despite being the season's shortest episode, this one definitely packed a lot in... and I have mixed feelings.

Star Trek Picard 3.05 "Imposters" REVIEW

HOLY CRAP I CANT BELIEVE THEY DID THAT... no spoilers. Caught by Starfleet and facing court martial, paranoia grows as Picard struggles to uncover whether a prodigal crewman from his past has returned as an ally – or an enemy hellbent on destroying them all.

It's not officially out in the wild yet, but I'll be announcing it on Saturday on the live stream that I hope you all will join cause we're gonna have some awesome guests, I think, on it.

SO I MADE A MISTAKE

Hey everyone; so you may have all seen that the AI video went live on YouTube but is now down haha. Well, first off, the Patron version is still up for all of you so you should all still have access. And second, the reason it went down is that I was silly and it shouldn't have gone up in the first place because I am moving it to next week cause the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT in the video is no longer the same thing, but become something else. I can't say just what it is yet, but let me put it this way....

App for TERFS: Training AI on Transphobia

Hey everyone! So here's the next big video essay AND while this version for Patron doesn't have it, this is the one where I'm announcing the official pre-launch of the Kickstarter for the short film in the official YouTube version.

Star Trek Enterprise Season 1 Retrospective - PATRON EXCLUSIVE

THE LOST VIDEOS ARRIVE! So this was a video I wrote and filmed in back in 2019 or so, but never released since I was saving it for if I got sick or a rainy day and needed to release content. But, it never happened, and now the video isn't reflective of my growth as a creator. So I'm releasing it here, and I have a few more videos that I release once I polish them up a bit over the next few months as well! I hope you enjoy this one!

Brianna Ghey & Hashtag Activism

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well. TBH, I'm not currently doing super great, but better then I was yesterday. If anyone of you saw Twitter (which, if you didn't it's definitely for the best you never go on Twitter for anything anyways haha) but there's been a whole discourse. Sadly while I'm ok with people disagree with me and definitely always welcome and want criticism, the discourse has become how about I tweeted for the likes, for the attention, to stoke division. It hurts, seeing ...
