I’ve been thinking about it as a parallel to The Day After. I thought it was important for the kids to watch AHOD even though it might be anxious. At home on the small screen gives them emotional space where we can pause and discuss, see how they’re doing.

Silent Service 2 is on Steam and still rocks! It’s a perfect combination of technical and fast-paced. I still have the huge instruction manual somewhere but I’ve lost the original keyboard overlay

If you ever get a chance visit the filming locations on Martha’s Vineyard. There’s a charter company that does cage snorkels. No great whites though

A union member making good money would be a lot more likely to vote for a candidate dedicated to eliminating unions!

What are the odds he has a gold toilet like Saddam?

The freaks make choices and grow in ways that are genuinely surprising. It gets me every time when they show up at the math competition with the car fender, or when Daniel plays D&D

The supporting actors of DS9 outshines the main cast. Garak, Dukat, Weyoun steal every scene they’re in. Kai Winn won the Academy Award for Best Actress!

He basically has a big Dril dial that controls what the Twitter algorithm pushes to people. People started seeing a whole lot of Trump/Epstein stuff recently
