I don't understand the argument about not having two on the Enterprise. There's like 150 years between Strange New Worlds and Picard/Legacy. Relatively sure the fans can keep them straight. They aren't even the same Enterprise.

Very fun interview! Thank you for posting. What part were we supposed to cry at though? I was dry eyed or laughing.

Incredible! Saturday morning's sunrise -- ahead of the rain forecast this afternoon -- was a stunner.

CWG's Kevin Ambrose caught this pair of fantastic shots.

The adage seems prescient: Red sky at morning, sailors take warning.

This one is important if you are taking Cyclobenzaprine (trade names: Flexeril, Amrix, Fexmid). Unichem mislabled certain lots of Meloxicam (an NSAID like ibuprofen) as cyclobenzaprine (a muscle relaxer). Read the FDA recall notice and/or call your pharmacy to be sure. #drugrecall #cyclobenzaprine

Strange New Worlds S3 Ep7 "What is Starfleet" is now on my list of best Trek eps ever. So. Frickin. Good. #startrek #strangenewworlds #extraordinarytelevision

I guess my fawn daycare, Leen's Noms & Naps, is open for business. These two's mom grabbed some dinner then went out for drinks with the girls. Fawns are confused--first day at daycare is always challenging. One is sleeping just outside fence, always gotta be a rebel. #deer #summerinvirginia #fawns

When the remake transcends the original, I think it's OK to bring it up. 🙄

Gerri Leen @gerrileen.bsky.social · Jul 27

You've seen a doctor for that, right?

I watched it and I enjoyed it, and laughed a lot, but I had to tell myself it wasn't really Murderbot because the books are so much better. So this is my other friend Murderbot lol. As long as I don't try to make them be the same thing, I can have two of them in my life. 😉

Although to be fair, I don't see a lot of the west/southwest/PNW represented here. Either this is a weirdly red tour or they haven't added dates for the western states other than Idaho.

Gerri Leen @gerrileen.bsky.social · Jul 6

No and I don't get it. 🤔 Here is the schedule from their site. Maybe they will add dates (and you can request a city on this page). styxworld.com/pages/tour

Light it up, let’s get this show on the road! Come on in and see what’s happening with a magical band of musical craftsmen on a holy Mission to make sweet, sweet sounds in the air night after night.

I echoed all your comments. Yes, those count! The problem with moving the goalpost is you never have to succeed or fail. And if you are inclined to self-flagellation rather than celebration, it enables that headspace. Is there no joy in writing for Eric? 😣 Joy is crucial--especially right now.

Gerri Leen @gerrileen.bsky.social · Jun 27

What a read this is! It covers so many things while being heart-wrenching and gut-wrenching. I loved this book. If you like horror, read it! #horror #book
