Still watching Deep Space 9. I love all Star Trek, especially the original series and Enterprise (I honestly think that stupid theme song is what killed it) but DS9 has a special place in my heart. People think I'm a pessimist but really I'm just realistic. I'd love to be able to believe in happily ever after but I'm too much of a realist to accept that. I know it won't happen, especially for me. But back to Trek. Past Tense part 1 and 2 are intense. They take place in 2021. There are sanctuary areas in cities where people who are jobless are put. If you are caught without a job or ID you could end up in one. If you haven't seen DS9 you could actually watch those 2 episodes without the rest of the series. I can see this happening if Trump stays in office. He seems to want as many poor people dead as possible. He's killed over 200,000 people in the USA by downplaying the Covid-19 severity. He's still not taking it seriously after supposedly having it himself. He's been tweeting things that would get anyone else a 72 hour psych hold. Personally I'm buying seeds for my garden next year and thinking about investing in a deep freeze.
