It’s a matter of opinion of course, but to me Picard 1/2 suffers the same malady as S31: “all we need is a big star to sell our franchise”

Season 3 felt to me like the owners of the franchise desperately trying to salvage the final season from Patrick Stewart’s meddling.

As for Kirk’s stories you’re right he’s done if not already overdone, at least as a main character. Who knows how he may work as a supporting character 🤷‍♀️

We know Riker plays for keeps; Quark owes him platinum and tried to foist gift cards on him for payment.

We know the TNG poker games would also raise the stakes; Crusher challenges Riker, LaForge, and Worf to bet shaving their beards that one time.

We know that gambling lingo is still commonplace, even though Mariner doesnt know other slang from our era (eg what a pinup poster is)

I want to say that gambling never left and it makes me realize we're sorely missing a proper heist episode. With Quark 👌

Edit: I am mistaken, I forgot about Moogie

If Kirk is going to come back, it has to mean something. It has to be the show. But I was so impressed by this writer, so I said let's talk after I'm done in Vancouver.

He had me in the first half, but thankfully this doesn't sound like another vanity project ala Picard S1/S2 🤞

I came here for the post about fog, but stayed for bikepower rabbit hole 👌

This looks like one you can make from an old washer and an old bike: https://permies.com/t/90723/Pedal-powered-washing-machine

That was an interesting watch. Glad someone is making shorts they think are fun to make, it's refreshing.

Finally! Someone with the courage to adapt the NES classic The Goonies II to the big screen. What a time to be alive!

I wish the best for those legally compelled by their HOA to maintain a colony of unwanted plants.

Maybe one day sanity will return to their regime and they'll be able to grow tomatoes and other peasantries like the rest of us.

It's not important, I just allowed myself get worked up over an annoyance. Sorry to show up with a sloppy rant, I'm grateful to be a guest here ✌️

Ya you're right. Just seeing it in chart format triggered an some kinda emotional response and I just sorta vomited a reply. Sorry about that.

I just came for a good time and I'm having one, even if it's not perfect.
