I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Huh. Ok

Is anyone watching, or hate-watching, Moffula?

I haven't yet subjected myself to Moffula, but myself and the usual suspects are talking about watching & tweeting for another installment of Eldergoths Back on Their Bullshit.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Is there anything on Apple TV+ worth watching yet?

I wound up liking For All Mankind. Not my favorite Ron D Moore show by a long shot, but I'm not mad I watched the whole thing. (Eps 1-2 are a slog, and probably skippable.)

Has anyone watched The Untamed? It's a 50 episode Chinese show on Netflix. It's like a live action anime. So very, very pretty!

Trailer for Alex Garland's new limited series on Hulu, Devs: [link]

After Ex Machina and Annihilation, I'm basically ready to follow Garland to anywhere, so colour me psyched. The intersection of Sci-fi, tech, and mystery-thriller is very much in his wheelhouse. Interesting to see Nick Offerman as the heavy.

So is this where we talk about Picard?

Because if it is, I mostly enjoyed it!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I did, too. It did suffer from having a lot of parts to set up. Since most of the back story appears to be coming from Nemesis and the reboot, two movies that I've never been interested in watching a second time, I was struggling try to remember if I knew about a supernova in the Romulus system. Fortunately, there are plot summaries online. It took me a second to figure out that his retainers must be Romulan and not Vulcan. The other thing that annoyed is that the Mars thing is something that happens in one of the Short Trek shorts, but it's one I haven't seen yet. (This is something that annoyed me about the second season of Discovery as well, although on the whole I really liked it.)

Picard's dressing down of the FNN interviewer (Fox News Network still exists in the 24th century? Yeesh.) was awesome.
