[Thread of threads]

I'd forgotten I'd made threads as soon as I got here. It wasn't very practical, but I couldn't help myself. 😅

Until I have a system for grouping them on my profile, like on the other network, I'll gather them here. 🖖

Hi Frenchies, have you seen the same kind of data for France? I would be interested.

My little finger tells me it must be similar (and that probably explains why some of my neighbors are afraid of everything when it's actually very peaceful here).

Better look on the new adaptation of the 2004 science fiction light novel by Hiroshi Sakurazaka and Yoshitoshi Abe - the same novel which spawned the excellent Edge of Tomorrow (2014).

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds

Akiva Goldsman: "We really wanted to do a 'TAS' episode, and for a bunch of reasons we couldn't quite get there. We haven't done a straight animated episode, and I don't think we will. Whether it would break the show or not, I don't know. Probably not."
