I’ve never been thrilled with Lwaxana episodes. It’s not Majel. She does fine with what she is given. I just wish the writers hadn’t gone back to the well so often with Troi’s mom looking for a husband. #startrek#allstartrek#ds9
@mimarek1 Agreed, although the scenes in the turbolift were well-done, going from flirting to deeper stuff as Odo progressively lets his guard (and shape) down. @allstartrek#AllStarTrek
@socprof@allstartrek Yes - chapter development for Odo and a bit for Lwaxana. The later Lwaxana episodes are usually better in this way than the earlier ones. She has vulnerabilities that she struggles to hide.
@dogzilla@paninid I just read "The Pursuit of Happiness" by J. Rosen, which had this fun fact about Jefferson: His great fear was that god is a just god and would require recompense from Jefferson for his hypocritical refusal to give up his lifestyle and the enslaved humans he needed to maintain it.
a teaching colleague who I know but not well (who I don’t like - he comes off as a detached mansplainer) messaged me in social media: “call me when you get a chance” because he has a “poetry venue idea” for me
ugh
UGH
Yes, this could be helpful info, but why is it being held hostage in exchange for an unnecessary social interaction, on the PHONE no less???
“Hey sean, venue x might be a good spot for poetry. Lmk if you want details” is fine. But this?
@darrellpf
I agree. I hate news teasers. I do social media for a eco org, and I never do teasers, I put very basic facts, and a link. A fascinating fact, and a link. I hate having to click a link to find out wtf they meant in the first place. @seanwithwords@actuallyautistic
