    I already knew making any criticism of uaw or workers would bring down votes. I won’t bother any further with replies beyond saying greedy people asking for 40% pay raise and lazy people asking for 4 day work week are specific examples. CEO’s giving themselves massive pay raises are also greedy. Both sets are assholes and consumers pay the price.

    [AskFinance] How often do you eat out, and does that impact your finances?

    I eat out only once or twice a month and usually it’s with friends or family if we do go out.

    Reasons to go out include socializing or trying foods I wouldn’t cook at home.

    Reasons I tend to prefer pickup rather than dining in the restaurant include a better atmosphere at home and not having to deal with the hassle of tipping which jacks up the cost of food by 20% or more.

    I hope they can find a cure besides the transporter buffer, because I am worried the hundreds of people beamed onto the Gorn ship may also have been infected.

    Adored seeing Scotty show up. I am worried about Batel being infected, as I love seeing a strong woman Star Trek captain and love her relationship with Pike. Lots of hints that the Gorn are not just “monsters”. They are the Borg of pre-TOS era, as someone mentioned.

    I hate cliffhangers though. I agree, how long before we see the next episode, especially with the strike.

    This was such a fun episode. I so enjoyed all of the male and female vocalizations. It was as campy as the TOS episodes could sometimes be, but I loved it. Definitely on my rewatchable episode list when in a light mood.

  • So glad I stuck around. This was gripping. I’ll wait for the discussion thread to post a question….

    Thanks for who was shot. I was surprised how it wasn’t shown.

    As to the pace with Silo, I thought it was a bit slow, too, but not too bad. I was reading the books at the same time, though.
