  1. https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/star-trek-discovery-season-5-story-spoilers-section-31-starfleet-academy/?
  2. https://www.popculturecoffee.com buy Kirk and Spock coffee to start. Janeway and Borg later. Also Ghostbusters.
  3. It was satisfying. Either the comic writer or people in the writer’s room had a narcissist in their lives growing up. Mike’s leap of personal growth was great, there is real hope for him. I hope Arlo gets to rest up safely and finally gets his cheerios.
  4. I have not the foggiest idea what will happen in “homecoming” episode 8, except I assume baby snowflake will come home.
  5. The boston public library gives you ten kanopy credits and you can join other libraries in the area, most are on one connected system and you can order books from all over the state.
  6. Harry badly needs that HR training. Just saying. He can find some other way to keep his scrotum in shape. Also he is easily startled. Like Asta he is also hypervigilant and dealing with some trauma. Also I can’t tell if he is following real clues or not, but I guess? Over time pigeons develop the ability to fake ankle injuries to get more bread. (I believe this) attractive people don’t work the nightshift…. he microwaved a rock that looked like a turtle lots of good lines in this one.
  7. I’m just happy to watch resident alien and night court. Not a lot else I want to see. Saw Oppenheimer in the theater and I’m feeling once is enough, for example. I’m sure there are other things.
  8. I just got peacock for free and I’m looking forward to this season. why is that cat not an alien?
  9. Apparently my comcast wifi only platinum account (i don’t pay for the appellation) comes with peacock. I just happened to look and did not know. Maybe someone else is equally clueless.
  10. Twin Peaks aside …. I loved the reaction to the owls. No one will come near their house ever again, nope, but it is fine, she will be fine. The owl also has an extremely human face. Barn owl? i loved that after Harry made his ‘men ask women out’ speech there was a focus on Darcy holding her fork like she was fighting the urge to stab him with it. I find Darcy a relatable mess, Narcissistic parents and all, and I somehow hope she finds something for herself by the end of the show.
  11. https://apple.news/AU8MRt8FhR1KfQ-thz8Dv6g Apparently Alan Tudyk has a lot of allergies, so the pizza he eats on the show is made by the prop department so he can eat it. May explain why it isn’t great looking pizza.
  12. No i I meant it. Being a teenager is about figuring out what life is about and why we live it. It was a great thing for altman to do, listening to his son, and the son is right. I. Order to live, it whould be a choice. Neither forced or stolen from you.
  13. Yes it should grt subtler. His laughs a beat off. Not so exaggerated.
  14. Winning the Oscar for most understanding Dad, Robert Altman used his teenaged son’s poem as the lyrics for the movie’s theme song.
  15. A lady pilot might be sympathetic and maybe on the town payroll.
  16. The owls are not what they seem!
  17. If you know the story of the frog and the scorpion, the scorpion dies along with the frog. The scorpion cannot swim. He has begged the frog for help crossing the river and the frog falsely believes that creatures are rational, or at least behave in their own self interest. the scorpion stings the frog as he is swimming. The frog says ‘why would you sting me, since it means both of us die’ and the scorpion answers ‘it is my nature’. the dance of the dragons is a tragedy. To tell you the truth the tragedies GRRM wrote are what attracted me to his writing. There are many things Alicent, Rhaenyra, Daemon and Viserys, all of them, could do if they were differnt people. What they do is their nature and it spins the story to its conclusion. all of these people have a way out and none of them are particularly altruistic or concerned for the small folk, as near as I can tell. What happens, has happened, is according to their nature.
  18. Except for all of ghe deposits of toxic waste we need to maintain and all the toxins that would escape when we disappeared. We have made our mark on this world.
  19. A lot if the problem, I think, is that installing a female king will tear the realm apart. Viserys may have led her to believe she was the heir but insisting on her rights makes war inevitable. Also, she should have stayed close, if she was going to insist. I think this would be true if the king had not had a male son.
  20. In general I agree, Whedon was a toxic and entitled Jerk and people rode his coattails and didn’t call him on it often enough. Maybe, if they had, he would have changed. Maybe not. He was often right, or had valid points—less cyborg, for example—but handled people poorly and didn’t include them in the conversation. Imo,and it is hard to tell. Most of the complaints sbout him seem to come down to toxic boss.
  21. Also escargot can be got frozen. Also Octopus, squid and prepared entrees. I’m more surprised they have a pet Octopus, also in a small aquarium. Poor Nathan.
  22. I agree about Picard.lI like Discovery. Go figure.
  23. I wish it had not become a TNG nostalgia piece at the end, although that may have been a hail mary save for the show and many people reacted as if that was what they wanted. I am not, in retrospect, finding it a memorable show. Personally I’d love Kirk and the old Gorn, playing more video games.
