  I cringe in horror at the idea of children using stainless steal straws. There’s so much potential for horrible accidents.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Discussion] According to you, what was the most unnecessary and worst sequel of all time?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  In that vein:
  Romeo and Juliet II: Friar Lawrence Strikes Again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kirk sticking around?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  A little bit of Kirk us enough for this show. I’d really hate to see home become a major character. I also wonder why they cast a Jim Carrey doppelganger as James T. Kirk?

  You have a point, but it got lost in the assholery of your reply. I too long for a little more of the hard SciFi and morality tales of Star Trek. The writers/producers try too hard to explore characters & relationships rather than the cool things that we can see/learn while exploring the galaxy - - all those strange new worlds.

  I’m a bit older than you and gotta disagree one one point. The 50s was NOT an optomistic time for American SciFi. With the exception of “Forbidden Planet”, which heavily influenced TOS, 50s SciFi was dominated by paranoia, repression & fatalism. There were monsters under every rock. Our inability to control ourselves and our technology was dooming our future. The early 60s TOS was an optomistic breath of fresh air. Maybe we wouldn’t blow ourselves up after all

  Longer seasons would allow them to throw in a few SciFi oriented episodes that don’t necessarily advance character arcs. Where would SNW be if TOS didn’t have the “Arena” (Gorn) episode that was based on a completely unrelated SciFi short story?
  I really hope SNW makes room for exploring the sort of SciFi ideas that Star Trek was originally based on.

  Republicans are a dog that loves to chase cars. They finally caught one and now they are getting dragged under its wheels.

  That’s where I signed up too. I’m going to give them a few more days before I give up on them.

  I’d also like to know how to export my community subscriptions.
