When watching without those expectations it's enjoyable.

When it was first on the air it was interesting but I lost interest when the new BSG came out which highlighted just how much better Enterprise could have been had they not played it too safe.

I do appreciate episodes like where Trip got pregnant. It felt like a rare time when Trek really went deep in making aliens feel thoroughly alien like how he had to go through an adaptation period for their ship's atmosphere.

Away mission done. Time to rub each other down in the mood lighting!

Time to take the keys away from gramps.

You think you got problems existing in a world with Vikings and Timberwolves fans. Imagine *being* one!

I'll think today on how the path is narrow. You have to walk it just right.

"This movie is why I've been in love with Segourney Weaver for over 40 years."

"Didn't that stop when you met Mom?"

"Nope."

It's from 2011... Even so...

How's the snow in your part of the state? Only a couple inches down here 15 miles north of IA but those prairie gusts are brutal.

Bingo.

People keep totally misreading what this guy does as some kind of mastermind. He doesn't mastermind *shit*. He goes off feelings. He's just reacting like he always does.

He can claim it's a hoax. Pardon himself. Declare "Marshall law." He hasn't put any more effort or thought into it.

Text based communication is so much easier. In fact, my non-autistic wife struggles with text based communication. It's like the roles for us are reversed compared to in-person or vocal communication.

That's fascinating! Yeah, we all have our own struggles and specialties with this. I can't read those patterns in sports at all so it was just nothing but confusing for me. On top of that I'd have teammates mad at me all the time for mysterious reasons.

That's what's so very frustrating about autism: you can be extremely smart or capable at things but the big challenge is trying to figure out how to let that get through all the social and sensory barriers.

And then you feel bad when people ask "why can't you do this?"

I struggled with team sports because they involve a lot of social cues and, of course, a lot of sensory overload. A surface level take is I was "bad at sports." But then I excel at individual sports where I don't have to try to decode social cues or deal with sensory overload.

Best comment I've read so far:

"Trump's mouth was the real ballroom all along."

"if I only had a brain..."

Glad I'm no longer on FB to see people get bent out of shape over this.

Even better: running the same route over and over!

Of course, what's better than that is running the same route over and over...
