Mucking around with Fallout 4. finished the story multiple times. Now I'm just going back to find hidden quests and trying to find as many Power Armour suits as I can!
Behold the fruits of my labour.
The green suit is an X-02 suit, painted fully green which pumps up my Luck stat.
(Such a nerd.)

After multiple interviews, visits, discussions about having awesome mothers, and even a mutual appreciation of some James T. Kirk Kentucky Bourbon, it behooves me to wish Eugene Roddenberry a happy birthday from all corners of the Federation!

The final episode of @Fallout S2 was definitely worth it! Fantastic fight sequence and stay tuned to the credit scenes - it was EXACTLY what I was hoping would happen! A show for the true and new fans! @PrimeVideoCA

Yeah ... my kid bullies me into smoking cheese for her so that she can have a smoked grilled cheese sandwich.

My take on @MarvelStudios #WonderMan ... #BenKingsley is definitely the unsung hero but more of a well-needed sidekick.

Apparently I'm charming enough to attend a Star Trek premiere post-screening reception.
Who knew?
Thanks for the invitation, Paramount+ CA.
I suppose you can't have a Star Trek event without Captain Kirk!

Here's my problem:
On Wednesday night, I've been invited to attend the Toronto red carpet premiere of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy.
When there's a strong fan element to the event, I NEVER know how much nerd flair is enough.

So a descriptor I used in my review of Starfleet Academy was "Beverly Hills, 90210 in space" got picked up by another outlet!
Their take was "haters are describing this show as Beverly Hills, 90210".
I've become a hater? When did I become a hater?
My God, Bones ... what have I done?

This is the way I like to imagine myself, heading into the new year: in the command chair, course charted, objectives to reach.
Not a Five-Year mission though. It's another 50.
Wouldn't have it any other way. #LLAP to all my friends. #HappyNewYear @StarTrek
(Thx @WilliamShatner)
