I also love that you said β€œtuning into,” as it’s such a wonderful phrase that used to be very precise and now it’s a fun term of art that we still use. I love it, and thank you for letting me have my old person moment.

Strange new worlds lately. I have a hard time watching some of the darker story lines like Picard, but I still love all things Star Trek.

Nice!! I've heard that's quite good, but can't say I know much about it.

My parents absolutely loved Next Generation... I remember watching that one when I was about 10 years old bored as hell, haha. I rewatched it during COVID and had a much more enjoyable time as an adult. I've yet to watch Picard, but need to check it out!

I rewatch old trek episodes regularly. It is a show that has really done a lot to shape who I am. I got my sense of empathy in part from Star Trek.
