I didn't know it when I made this post, but the announcement of Bob Burns' death came at the same time.
Actor, consultant, producer, archivist, and historian of props Bob Burns III was 90 years old.
He appeared in many documentaries, as he preserved part of the cultural heritage of sci-fi. 🙏

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:
"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

I finally finished the entirety of the original Star Trek TV show and the animated series. Miraculously, they’ve restored at least 30% of the sanity I lost this year! (And if it’s not actual sanity, I’ll still take whatever it is.)

Talking, laughing, and pseudo-renting (it’s real in the heart) with Ryan and Dirk was a blast, but kind of living out my fanfiction of being in a video rental store with Heather Drain was a big early Xmas present.
