There’s something interesting in the comparison between TOS everything afterwards in the way there was a lot of “super” species that the enterprise ran in to in TOS but after that from TNG there was only Q. From TNG onwards most of the others that the federation runs into are roughly at their level or just above it. DS9 had the wormhole aliens but aside from them even the founders weren’t individually more powerful then any given human. It like after the 60’s we weren’t really interested in stories about beings greater than humanity.

I thought that SNW really tried to push the thought that the squire was a Q. Personally I would prefer if he wasn’t, I like the idea of a big universe with more then one type of near-omnipotent entities.

I love this one because it looks like Rikers got Bohemian Rhapsody blasting over the sound system and everyone’s just headbanging along.

Do you not understand how dramatic storytelling works? Did you stop reading To Kill a Mockingbird because it’s racist to have an innocent black man accused of murder?

In some states in the US yes.

You may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile

And you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife

And you may ask yourself, “Well, how did I get here?”

Hi I’m deeply interested in this and would like to subscribe to your newsletter. How the hell do you counterfeit olive oli?!?

I can’t belive nobody has recommended The Good Place yet. Only 53 episodes, just about 20 hours total, and an amazing series. You can watch the whole thing on a long enough trip and it’s an amazing ride. Do yourself a favour and don’t read up on it just go along for the ride.

I hadn’t really seen that point of view before but I really like it. Shit has sucked for a while maybe some stories about how cool fixing it would be are what I need.

Welcome back! I enjoyed both these episodes. I don’t like this time period, the post burn Federation. The rebuilding could interesting but it’s not really aspirational and I really could use some aspirational content in my life, vaguely waves at every thing.

What no love for Commodore OS

It’s my new favourite Linux

I hope you both stick with us if only for spite Fuck those haters Be around to rub it their ugly faces

Absolutely! The short sighted idiocy of this really points out the corporate thinking only about the next Q. This would get maybe a month before the economic crash

Laurie Anderson Strange Angels I don’t know why but that album hits me so hard. It’s like nothing else I like but I’ve been know to listen to it on loop for hours on end.

Don’t worry to much I’m sure he’ll be able to apply for refugee status in the USA.
