There are zoning issues and missing middle issues and so on, but there is one thing that everyone keeps saying won't work while saying all of the stuff they've been doing will work (and doesn't).

Fucking cap the sale and/or resale price of houses. Don't expect the capitalists to make life easier on others at the expense of their bottom line, STOP them from doing it outright.

When they complain, build housing as the government which you can rent control without lobbyists yelling at you.

Developers may go away, but I doubt we'll lose them all, or even most of them.

Didn't he have some serious cardiac issues a year or so back, which is why he dropped all the weight before he started the JAS?

Sounds like the vaccine to me /s

Remember when we said that as COVID raged and health care workers were hung out to dry?

I remember that. And he got a majority government because of it.

They will try the other option that worked so well the last time and the time before that and the time before that and the time...

Echoing what others said: the TNG movies felt like long, bigger episodes. While this isn't a bad thing, it didnt have the finality and "oomph" of the TOS movies.

THEY felt like they had big stakes, which carried from movie to movie, and at least for 2-4 (and 6), they picked up the character abd story arcs.

The TNG movies treated each as a standalone story, which again, isn't a bad thing, but the episodic reset button was no good when you had the epic story of the TOS films.

Of all of the TNG movies, First Contact had it, but honestly Nemesis was the one that tried to bring it and completely squandered that feeling of "this can change the entire galaxy and tie to threads from the series." I always felt like there was actually a better movie in there, left on the cutting room floor.

Honestly, it's dulled the lustre of FTR by association. Their match at All In felt kind of irritating, and not because of the bucks this time.

I don't even care if Perry started it, Punk threw the first punch and always seems to.

I've been rewatching TNG and it has become very, very apparent to me how much of the charm of the show was due to two things:

1. The sheer chemistry of the cast. Since really learning how much they all loved each other, it really just feels like a ship of joy.

2. The filler episodes let you spend time with the cast. I mean, you rarely get something like a whole scene about Data painting, or stroking a fake beard, or Geordi striking out with multiple women, or Troi extolling the virtues of chocolate sundaes.

I've been really impressed by how much SNW has been able to do with the ensemble, it really feels like the cast have relationships, so if we can get more of that, yes please!

I almost want to believe that they're cancelling Discovery to give more resources to SNW's production schedule. ;)

Just a fun note: Ron Moore got his start through that open submissions policy when submitted a script for what became "The Bonding." He had no writing credits before that.
