Whoever chose the title was doing a bit of trolling
Concord and implacability, name a more iconic duo
Episode opens with shitty pirate accent voice about Concord's lore. FTL travel exists but randomly kills people sometimes
TFW traveling through the limitless reaches of space at hyperlight speeds but you get sniped by a screw
Scene cuts to random woman(?) bound up
Dollar store Thanos confirms that the protag is a foid. Apparently she has some special chip that Thanos wants to extract.
We cut to a new character
He seems to be working with a grumpy
The two men spring into action, opening a door containing the Black lady. ,
,
and a doctor all spring into action. They free the woman, smash a window, and try ziplining away. Thanos cuts the zipline
Lots of MCU-style quips
There was also this character distracting some guards in the background. Apparently another member of the crew
The teletubby starts blasting Thanos with its finger guns. Teletubby gets shot in the head, but is revealed to be a talking fish.
Some trash mobs swarm the crew, I guess they're looking to another crew member for backup. "They say Julius is amazing. Always on, always ready..."
He wasn't actually ready lmfao!!!! Typical worthless
![]()
tbh .
Sniper tells him they need to go so he closes the ramp and starts to leave . The rest of the crew make it half a second before the ship launches. The Captain(?) isn't seen reaching the ship. They bicker for a while, until a scary guard enters the room holding them at gunpoint. Surprise, it's actually the Black woman captain!!!
They for a bit about whether or not the captain has secured the valuable route through space. She did
. Apparently the chip she had in her arm grants access to every single guild navigation route.
Cuts to the guild attacking the ship. The ship loses all of its fins(??) that allow it to steer. Julius starts to so
takes back over on the ship.
Somehow, everyone randomly starts passing out
But wait! Julius is shown wearing a gas mask and walking away with a smug look. Is the blond white male a traitor?
Cut to waking up from the knockout gas. Julius and Thanos are chatting on Zoom. Thanos wants the chip and
and promises to leave the rest of the crew alone. Surprisingly, the crew seems cool with this and asks for a bounty. The bounty is large
12,500,000 MONEYS!?!?!
gets up and challenges Julius to tie her down
. He gets nervous and unfastens
to back him up. But SURPRISE!
is still loyal to the captain!
He opens the airlock, killing Julius and nobody else.
gives
a hand.
This gives an idea. She uploads the chip and its trade routes to the galactic internet
Thanos rages, the crew accelerate forward with their ship, heading straight into the big scary storm foreshadowed earlier.
There's a gay slowmo montage of them all nodding at each other as purple storm magic swirls around them. The bartender who has been telling this whole story reveals that they may have survived, because he has the funko pop that they brought onto that ship.
Final Rating: 3/10 . ChatGPT writes Guardians of the Galaxy fanfiction. I shouldn't have wasted my time watching and reviewing this garbage. I hope this post is long enough to count as an effortpost, but if it isn't, the least you can do is upmarsey me or donate some dramacoin for going to all this trouble and saving you from having to watch this terrible episode. Thanks!

What I most like about reality is that the far future, if anybody survives, is more like to be both the Chud and the SJW nightmare. Because human ethnic groups are ephemeral things. A ethnic group today is not going to be the same as an ethnic group tomorrow, and so in two thousand years, ten thousand years, whatever, it's going to be some new shit. There will be no recognizable ethnicities from today.
You've got groups that share descent and maybe some traits with people alive today—though they'll probably combine in new ways, maybe even develop traits we can't imagine yet. Who knows? Look at the ancient North Eurasians: they looked nothing like modern Europeans. Same with the Neolithic farmers—darker skin, totally different. Modern Europeans? They're a cocktail of all these ancient groups mashed together over time. It's like that Dune drama, where people got mad it wasn't "Arab enough." But Herbert didn't write Dune about Arabs—it's inspired by The Sabres of Paradise and those literal Caucasians (as in people from the Caucasus) who just happened to be Muslim.
Anyway, no one's going to wake up in 5000 years and think, "You know, I feel so connected to the Black/Chicano/ARYVAN Community." Same way nobody now claims to be a proud Phoenician, a Thuringii, or a Galatian. Even Romans—one of the larger groups—don't have modern descendants claiming to be literal Romans, except for some r-slur history-obsessed LARPers online.
Even isolated Native Americans from thousands of years ago look way different from their skulls even if their DNA matches the present population
Anyway, like, maybe new sci-fi would be a lot cooler if we would think about how people might look in 500 or a thousand years, or 20,000 years, because it sure shit isn't gonna be like what it is today, any more than people think or look like they did back in the fricking 1600s. So you tell me why people insist on making sci-fi that is based almost entirely, in some cases, on 21st century burger social issues and political hot buttons.

That's great and all, but I asked for my burger without cheese.

We wuz kangz is a meme for a reason though. Doubtful anyone in the future is going to look back on Black People as something to aspire to, but I wouldn't bet against something familiar evolving from it. I guess I'll be dead, but it'd be so surreal if the world ended up turning harder into classic race ethnonationalism in a hundred years partly because the U.S. cultural zeitgeist has circled back to saying everyone is unequal.
Maybe whites will be the new Jews that the Chinese or Indians save from the blaCaliphate's holocaust.
