I saw the Bell Riots episode for the first time a week or two ago. I hope 2024 is better than that!
I just now finished season 3 of DS9. Congrats to Captain Sisko! I’m slowly inching my way towards watching Picard. Looking forward to not reading this thread like this
Happy new year, all!

I made a second one… I like this one better.
For me, is that it’s an inflection point in history. It was an awful civil disturbance, but it brought about real change in the US… it’s a step on the road to the Star Trek future…
But compared to other sci-fi set in the 20-teens or 2020s, they nail a whole bunch of our present reality. No flying cars or living on mars or replicants… Just a projection of the same social problems in the 90s into the near future… Whether or not a Bell riots happen, we can easily see them happening now.
I love that… the voyager near earth… perfection!

I binged Lower Decks S4 over The Holidays and I found it pretty entertaining. The overarching plot feels irrelevant an a bit cheap, but the characters are becoming really good friends. I want to see them go on with their lives. That’s more character development in a Trek series after four seasons than for most others in their whole runtime, and these are basically set to be two-dimensional… Go, Lower Decks!

I’m not sure Vulcans are selfish enough to tell themselves to “live long and prosper.” 
Fox News people are a bunch of posers.
MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow did it correctly.
