Let me remind you of Charlie Brown's motto: be happy in your work.
Forget it, Chuck. It’s Chinatown.
Stay out of Malibu, Charlie Brown! Stay out of Malibu, deadbeat! Keep your ugly fuckin' goldbrickin' ass out of my beach community.

I don't know if others would think this book has narrative propulsion my submission is The Making of the Atomic Bomb.
Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

Another species no longer on the global Endangered list:
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae).

A few decades after a Star Trek movie where the central conflict was the total extinction of the humpback, their numbers are rising fast enough to put them at "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List.

Alt: Scotty from Star Trek Original Series (played by Jimmy Doohan) says there be whales here in a Klingon vessel's cargo hold.

Women saved Star Trek, women put together the first Star Trek con, women put together the zines and wrote the fanfic (and decided Kirk & Spock should be together and that ship was called Kirk/Spock and "slash" is literally a thing because of that slash). I could go on—

You cannot say enough good things about All Good Things...
it's pre Peak TV but shows could learn from "all good things," one of the best series finales ever made. it does the magic trick of SEEMING at first to tie up all the show's narrative threads, but then gives you what you really want: knowledge that your friends' adventures continue indefinitely

Poptarts Ice Cream Sandwiches: 10/10

Flawless. The best snack I’ve ever reviewed. Innovation on par with the wheel. Nothing in my life has ever lived up to the hype the way these did.
