An #educator and #parent of a transgender teen feels #burnedout by #attacks on two fronts, but also unwilling to #disengage.

In 2023, I decided to reduce time on popular social media, (& yes, instead ramble into the void here!) ignore *breaking* news, stay away from convos outside my lane, & not be in activated message groups.
As a result, read & watched more than ever, found things I would not usually, had more insightful in-person convos, & discovered ways to access info/news at my pace - outside of known tweet funnels.
Best decision. To #disengage with the usual world, to maybe #engage with it better...

archive of as many as i was ever able to find of the #gescom/autechre #disengage radio show:
@StarTrekHour
A1: There are a few great episodes from #StarTrekDS9 where the insidious threat from enemy Changelings is really evoked:
- #TheDieIsCast (changeling manipulates Cardassia into attacking)
- #TheAdversary (changeling sabotages DS9)
- #ApocalypseRising (changeling controls the Klingon Empire)
- #ParadiseLost (changeling paranoia on Earth)

A6: When the Shrike destroyed the shuttle docked at Beverly's ship Eleos, that was a very careful and precise strike.
However, the Shrike later flung the Eleos into the Titan. There is every chance Vedic could have killed Jack with that move and failed her mission, so maybe not quite as surgical as she tells herself.🤷♂️
Good intimidation factor tho.👍

A7: It's interesting the way the question is phrased. #Picard never wanted to give Jack over to Vedic, but once he found out that Jack was his son both he and Shaw were suddenly willing to use their authority to save him.
It's very un-Star-Fleet.😖
Contrast this with #StarTrekDS9 #CallToArms, where Sisko made it a point that he could not go back to DS9 after the evacuation to rescue Jake and jeopardize the crew of the Defiant.
