The Lounge Who Would Be King

I usually hate these things but it was pretty good.

Tonight's episode of Discovery was a doozy. I see what they're doing, and I don't know if I like it. I don't know if I really need an

yet that seems to be where it is going. Maybe it is all one big red herring, and I will be made a fool. A FOOL.

I stopped at the season break. I'll go through it by the end of the season but I thought

from the episode with Tyler and Pike caught in that time rift thingie that sent back the probe that we were headed into Borg territory.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't there a ST game where they did do an origin of the Borg? Something to do with like a female Vulcan or Romulan scientist that finds bits of V'ger or something and she becomes the first Borg Queen or the like?

Star Trek Legacy. It was a dope game.

 

[Perfect Cell]

But Star Trek has always been different from Star Wars, in the sense that only things shown on screen in television or film are canon. There have been like 30 different versions of their origin in books and comics and games.

Good... I thought I had gone mad and dreamed it.

It's happened to me before. I dreamed just two nights ago of a live action GALAXY RANGERS in such precise detail that when I woke up for a couple of minutes I doubted reality because it was so real... Alas... Mandela effect.

Which is a shame cuz... C'mon... Rangers of the Galaxy? Space cowboys? Cyborg arms? Super Troopers? Dated 80's cartoon CGI? What's studio wouldn't line up for that?

No studio. None at all. But still...

Well, my cable company won the battle. I'm keeping the cable portion of my bundle 'til my contract's up in September. But I got a $30/mo. discount for the remaining months 'til then, so...victory? It feels suspiciously like defeat.

Which means it's back to work for me!

this seemed like a really slow week... on a brighter note that Kevin Costner Woody Harrelson movie is out on Netflix in a couple hours i think

Working on the weekend is the best. It has the combined benefits of ruining your social life along with destroying your traditional rhythm of a week. Win-win.

I worked the weekend for years. I liked it because I worked alone. Just me and the water treatment plant. I could get my work done and then read all I want.

That's how I felt about the TV show Get A Life. Except it turned out to be real.

As a kid I remembered watching a TV show with that guy from Cabin Boy (Chris Elliot). It had muppets in it, and he died at the end of every episode. I couldn't remember it's name, and it bugged me. I'd ask around, and no one knew what I was talking about. Plus, the internet in the 90's was far from what it is now.

So this show I had convinced myself I made up suddenly popped back in my mind a few years ago. I decided to look it up. There it was, cast members, episode list, the intro on YouTube. Everyone talking about it in the comments section. Me, grateful I didn't make up a TV show that weird as a kid.

That looks good.
