I'm so sorry. It's awful right now. Hunker down. We'll get through this. You deserve better.
Appreciated. We all could do with a little better. In the meantime, we've got our escapism.
Really making me wish we could request asylum within the Federation.
Y’know, after seeing all of these memes for so long… maybe I’ll actually try watching watch trek to get my mind off of things. Any recs on where to start??
You could also go the opposite direction like me. I just started watching The Man in the High Castle. It seemed topical after the inauguration.
Always a tough question. TOS, while dated, is the primer. I grew up as TNG was airing. It's janky and problematic until about the 3rd season. DS9 is the best of the best as far as I'm concerned, but it's a slow burn to build the characters and get to the meat of the arching story. Of course, there's a chronological approach, however, kinda messy.
Try out one for a few episodes, see what strikes your fancy.
Watch the first two episodes of next generation. Then skip to season two. And enjoy
I'll be watching all 900 hours or so of Trek on a loop.
