  1. Bit of an off-the-wall connection, but the point of #Scifi IS to explore ideas through a lens of fiction...

    I've been watching #StarTrek #Enterprise lately, with episodes like "Dear Doctor", "#Cogenitor", "North Star", and "Observer Effect" going into the realm of "why we don't interfere with other cultures, no matter what".

    I've also been watching the #IranWar, with absurd projections of impossibly wishful scenarios of an instant transition to pro-US democracy with the low-cost application of a few hundred bombs, contrasted with the reality of an #Iran now galvanized against "#TheWest" by the completely unprovoked and sudden attack by the #US and #Israel alone against the will of all allies.

    I don't think even Crazy Captain Archer would approve, and it seems to me like most of us should've learned this lesson the hard way by 2004, to the point where scifi writers were putting it on UPN.

  2. Every time I watch an #ent episode with Gary Graham, it just fills me with sadness. He was such an important part of that series and his contribution to the franchise weighs heavy as well approach the 25th anniversary. His is still missed.
