Debatable.

TNG did have a crossover with a forgotten sitcom named Webster. https://blog.trekcore.com/2015/03/tng-webster-crossover/

And who can forget Voyager having a wrestling episode.

As a fan of mysteries, my mind tends to clasp onto details that writers felt important enough to mention, but had no bearing on the plot up to this point.

The fact that the ship Tendi recovered was a “medical frigate” triggered such an alarm in my head. Yes the ship was able to gas the Blue Orions, but that’s hardly a feature unique to medical ships.

We Know:

• Tendi wants to come back to help raise her niece.
• Tendi wants to be a captain
• The finale is going to have some tear jerking moments
• This is the last season.

I think we’re being prepped for the main cast to go their separate ways, not unlike the DS9 finale.

We’ve had some foreshadowing with Freeman and Starbase 80. I wonder if the finale might end with her being posted there, as an admiral. Fix it up, that sort of thing, rather than an exile.

I really want the S5 set, and the S1 poster.

Not really sold on a full set at the moment.

No. They’re aiming for that regardless.

Actually, I didn’t know. Never heard it used in an offensive context before today. But I’ll edit my comment just the same.

Airbags, Anti lock Brakes, and hopefully leg room are probably bonuses too.

Eeh.

While I agree with the sentiment, I think we’re in this situation because of the current medical climate.

• You call an ambulance? You get charged an arm and a leg.

• You take yourself to the hospital, you get charged an arm and a leg.

• You get medical insurance, and you’re somehow even further behind because it’s their priority to find reasons to deny having to give you money back,

The current system does not work. As a consequence, people are attempting, however incompetently, to take their care into their own hands.

Fix why folks are resorting to this, and this should stop being an issue, or at least stop gaining traction.

Butter used to be dyed yellow. Now no one bats an eye that it’s off white.

It takes time, but new normals take over.

If we go by the gap between Strange New Worlds beginning filming, and S1’s release, we could see Academy around November of next year.

I feel like Dennis the buffer buff from the Lower Decks S3 Premiere was intended to be O’Brien, (Transporter enthusiast, war veteran) but for whatever reason it didn’t pan out…

… which I honestly felt worked out for the best. Dennis was like my grandpa.

Article mentions nothing with regards to holding corporations accountable nor any plan or threat of action on the president’s part.

Article title is “Renting alone in Miami is too expensive for Gen Z”.

That aside, it does have some interesting statistics about Gen Z moving back home and Boomers moving to apartments.

Reminds me of cigarette companies burying research on lung disease.

Serious question:

Would anything short of that lead to reform? I’m not eager for a second Great Depression, but considering we can’t even pretend to get climate change under control, I can’t see the 1% changing their policies until it hurts them, and bad.

Gotta love those distant goals that allow the current administration to say they’ve done something… and allowing the next to undo it.

I mean, everyone’s back from Thanksgiving with family. Next up is Christmas.

Luthor in Flash’s Body: I have no idea who this is.

I believe the antivax movement was able to take root because the US has cultivated an intense distrust of the medical system.

• You pay high medical insurance premiums only to get denied when it’s time to cash in.

• You avoid calling for an ambulance because the ride alone will bankrupt you.

• You go to the ER only to get hundreds of dollars in fine for over the counter Tylenol.

The public was trained by the medical institutions to look for any excuse to reject them. The antivax movement was a way to express that distrust, even if unconsciously. Politicians simply lit that major oil spill and gave it a voice.

Likewise, we live in a capitalistic hellscape where no one can afford homes and cars to take them to jobs where they’re underpaid and can be let go in an instant, not due to performance, but because an executive wanted another tax break on the dragon money hoard they refuse to put back into the economy.

Like with the antivaxers, we have been conditioned to expect the worst and that impacts our gut reactions.

I’ve never heard of this guy, but the description sounds right up my ally. I feel like I have a hard time finding humorous fiction. It either ends up being humorous non-fiction or the author is under the misconception that a protagonist being inconvenienced by an in-law counts as humor.

Is this guy’s series any good, and do you guys have any other authors I might want to look into with a preferred emphasis on humor and mystery.

Morgan Stanley sees two potential outcomes for housing prices next year.

One, if mortgage rates slide from their peak this year, the housing market could see demand ramp up, pushing prices up another 5% in 2024.

On the other hand, if mortgage rates remain high and the U.S. enters a recession, that will scare off homebuyers and home prices will recede more.

So effectively, either way, they will remain out of reach.
