  • There’s something interesting in the comparison between TOS everything afterwards in the way there was a lot of “super” species that the enterprise ran in to in TOS but after that from TNG there was only Q. From TNG onwards most of the others that the federation runs into are roughly at their level or just above it. DS9 had the wormhole aliens but aside from them even the founders weren’t individually more powerful then any given human. It like after the 60’s we weren’t really interested in stories about beings greater than humanity.









  • For movies: Little Amélie or the Character of Rain.
    Watched as part of our trying to see all the best animated movies nominees.
    Truely beautiful movie, touching and bittersweet. Not a chance in hell against K-Pop Demon Hunters but well worth your time.
    For TV:
    My partner and I are rewatching The West Wing and are currently slogging through the 5th season. Only sticking with it because I know once the next campaign starts in season 6 it really cooks again but man this Sorkinless season isn’t really very good. Also honorary mention for Wonder Man which I watch last week but didn’t mention. What a great character piece Ben Kingsley and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II are top notch and it’s not like anything else in superhero or Hollywood stories. And I’m amazed at the social commentary in it.








  • This is actually an interesting question that depends a lot on a human perspective and what you define as ‘Generally Blue’ and what’s else is in the container.
    I personally would define generally blue as when you have two colours, say red and blue M&Ms, and you reach in the container to pull out 3 you have a 50/50 chance of pulling out three blues. This definition would require that you have 79.58% blue M&Ms in your container.
    Honestly this sounds like a bit high to me but probably can be a real bitch, and the test sounds secure to me. Physiological I think 2/3 blue 1/3 red would have most people say it’s generally blue and the ratio would go down as you add other colours. I think 1/2 blue and 1/2 a mix of 4 or more colours people would still say it’s generally blue.
