Mine was pretty bland too. "Has 1 cat" and "reads fantasy". I wanted to get insulted.

I'm sure the devs did a quick search for sexual keywords to clean it up after the news came out

That's a disservice to all of us 😆

Dude, there are so many places online you can get free insults from, I mean you are already here so why not post about the Ukraine war on lemmy.ml or mistake Star Trek for Star Wars or something.

mistake Star Trek for Star Wars or something.

One's got space magicians and the others got space wizards

Is that the one with the gates deep in space? Deep gate 9 or something?

Your rage-baiting skills are impeccable 😆

Look, they found a way to connect to faraway regions of space and shortcut the journey, and decided a facility was necessary to protect against hostile intrusions and be a hub. Also something about returning control to the natives. Religion / religious zealots bad.

  1. This is funny.

  2. As an avid fan of both, I'm not sure which is supposed to be which. Star Trek has all the pazzaz of a magician, psuedo science and technobable explainations. But it also has characters who are literally magical. Meanwhile, Star Wars has old people in secret societies performing rituals in robes - all very wizardly. However, in universe, their "magic" is very well understood, continuously studied, is testable, and even reproducable. They use their well established abilities to trick people, and that's very magician.

There is a difference?

Yeah mine was super bland too which surprised me given I've bought stuff off them for 15 years or so. Really only references last couple of years.

I'm sus that they may have closed the exposure that is being reported
