started Picard. Instantly I was reminded of every little bit of what I love about Star Trek. The future it pictures is so vivid and interesting that I feel like we have a beautiful opportunity ahead of us in our march across time and space. The show follows a retired Picard as he steps into a new adventure involving the Legacy of his old friend Data. I can say no more other than to suggest this show forcefully. Sci fi TV has grown so campy and soap opera focus that we tend to forget that vast beauty that is space and the very real consequences of our interfering with such a wonder filled place.
it is another reminder of the power of good storytelling. I was instantly engaged and transported—not just because Of the characters but because of the setting and the speculation. It struck me as the best version of sci-fi—the kind often overlooked in our imaginings.
yesterday was also the Super Bowl. Chiefs won. Hi hum. I’m really not a fan of that team or the mighty Mahomes, but it was a good game overall. I wanted the other guys to win.
All in all yesterday was a good one. It was a family day and a day filled with happiness. Today had moments of that—especially late in this very evening. Today was a day of change and new beginnings.
Some Thoughts:
- Yesterday was a palindrome day.
