Yeah, seriously. Joy is resistance. We have to find the joy wherever we can right now, and lecturing people who have found some brief relief from this hellscape about how bad they are is a real dick move.

When they aren't hurting anyone, just shut up and let people enjoy things. Don't be a dick.

Just saying if, as a Keeper, I say the words "bas relief" my players immediately form a defensive circle and prep for multiple sanity rolls...

This reaction may, in fact, be justified. :-)

It's a great episode! It kinda explained why the one time we tried it we failed...and also showed how we could do better when we try it again.

Short answer: "Yes"

Slightly longer answer: "Yes, completely and totally."

Hmmm. Gonna have to think on this one. Agreed initially Janeway saw The Doctor as just "The EMH" but, IIRC she opened up quickly. I may/might/probably am misremembering but, in the end, I guess this is the universe telling me to rewatch VOY.

I never could get into the novels but totally see where you are coming from on them. 100% on DS9 and Lower Decks...

On what stone tablet is it written that every Trader Joe's parking lot must be small, cramped, and hella challenging to get in and out of?

I know, right?

LinkedIn is 100% what MySpace was back in the day*. People relentlessly posting about things hoping to sound cool & smart but instead coming across as so very VERY needy and grasping at anything to get some attention.

*Yes, this reference dates me. I am okay with that. :-)

So much The This. Telling shady folks no matter what they are trying to score or if they are "legit" or not to fuck off is a key thing to a happier Future You. Nobody needs to deal with this crap. Nobody = Especially You.

That presumes Twitter is catering to an open network...versus a very select group of Certain Political Views.

I know, right! I get people not liking how he's talking to his constituency but those people Do Not Understand The Constituency.

I wonder if they would rather make a point than make a difference.

Today's Deep Thought:

The most important skill for an executive is the ability to distinguish between "necessary nuance" and "harmful complexity".

A lack of ability in this area is, I think, the number one thing that limits executives I know.

I DO NOT WANT TEAMS IN MY CAR, I DO NOT WANT IT NEAR OR FAR. I WOULD NOT LOG ON IN A JAG, I WOULD NOT CALL IN FROM A CAB, I DO NOT WANT THIS TEAMS YOU SEE, GET IT FAR AWAY FROM ME

Yes, they are. My favorite way to consume them is after dipping them in hot Korean style coffee.

Parenting brings out the reality of the world. We work *so* hard not to transfer the our generational trauma to our kids but, damn, sometimes you gotta let them work it out.

Good on you for discovering that earlier than me. (Me: 28 & 25 y/o kids who have their own issues to solve)

With greatest humility may I suggest taking what is clearly a superb menu but, as a starter, going with kettle popcorn? The sweetness of the popcorn will provide a wonderful contrast to the saltiness of the Doritos and Ruffles while adding some badly needed fiber.

Be well, sir. Write more!

I have no (meaning very few) words.

This is either the most brilliant 70s film ever or the worst waste of my time in the 50+ years of my life.

My initial reaction is this is Clockwork Orange and Mad Max had a love child and this is it.

My only question: When should I have dropped the mushrooms?
