    Botticelli was the surprise from the uffizi for me. His big, well known, paintings--birth of Venus, primavera--i found dull, but the sweetness in his smaller tondos was delightful

    ...I am pleased I didn't sell my TSLA the other day, but uhhhh. I'm just gonna stop looking at it.

    By dating this person, the thread of prophecy is severed. Break up to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed relationship you have created.

    Ok, to the gym. Time to find out if I've just had a three day rest & am ready to kill it, or if I've had three days stiffening up in a car eating gas station meals, and will be miserable. Could be either tbh.

    I started rereading The Long Goodbye while killing time at a bookstore before a meeting. Now I deeply want to continue, but my own copy is... somewhere in storage. Lief is hard.

    Weird experience on the highway. Eyes just abruptly started burning and absolutely streaming. Had to pull over. Problem went away rapidly. I wonder if I either have a gremlin chopping onions in the trunk, or if someone, like, sprayed bear repellent near the highway

    Tl;Dr: "optimistic vision of the future": boring, smug "We have all our human problems, but maybe we can get through today": awesome, complex, beehive hairdo.

    And this isn't even mentioning the /excellent episodes/ that are basically, once you get over the effects, "the gang encounters a shoggoth and loads of people die."

    "If a good but broken man dies, we can live". "Decent men who could have been friends sometimes must kill each other". "Sometimes hopeful dreams will kill us all." are the themes of some of the best eps. Optimistic vision of the future? I guess.

    Kirk says (in a bad episode), something like, "yes, we're killers, we're killers from a million years of killers. But we don't have to kill today." And that's really as far as ToS takes us; we'll have these problems again tomorrow, but perhaps we can survive today.

    And second, when ToS is good--and it could be really, really good--it's not optimistic. Neither is it nihilistic, but calling it "a hopeful vision of the future" is, flatly, wrong.

    Firstly, I want to say that ToS episodes are usually bad almost in proportion to the degree they're specific to Social Issues. The split-faced racism episode. The Vietnam episode. The Hippy Episode. Are bad.

    IMO, like Kirk-maverick is a less interesting character that has replaced the complex original, "Star Trek is about optimism and modern social issues!" is a dull idea that has replaced ToS's world-flavor, and weakened Star Treks ever since.

    Similarly, about Picard-the-show, I keep seeing "Star Trek is about an optimistic vision of the future! Star Trek is best when it's talking about contemporary issues." ,

    There was a great essay floating around arguing that Captain Kirk as actually presented in ToS has been basically overwritten by a concept of him (maverick! Womanizer!) with little textual basis.
