Dead Inside Darwin posted:thats literally it yeah they basically realized that they were not nearly creative enough to come up with a decent way of explaining what was happening to her so they just got rid of her. i also liked the part where she was in a relationship with neelix and he's got mega jealousy issues and then they're just like 'oh welp we're not together nbg' also when 7 of 9 and chakotay just arbitrarily end up together despite having 0 on screen chemistry or time together. like, just because the hot babe needed to be with someone at the end of the show. plus her and the doctor have a thing and they're building up to it in literally the same episode where she ends up with chakotay but they never talk about it

i tried watching transformers dark of the moon on netflix last night because i was feeling masochistic and had been watching a lot of terrible poo poo lately the very first non-stock-footage shot that wasn't badly faked 1960's bullshit was a closeup of the butt of a half-naked victoria's secret model is this like the standard for this sort of poo poo now i had to turn it off because i feel unbelievably creeped out
