Am I realizing only now that the writers, after creating their first #ObrienMustSuffer storyline in the previous episode, felt they must immediately follow it with another???? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Okay real discussion question: Does Miles suffer more than other characters? Like we need a histogram of suffering. I feel like other characters have suffered more.

Ensign Kim had a tough time of it. When he wasn't actively getting screwed, he had the daily insult of not getting promoted.

Seemed like stuff was always happening to Seven. Either conflict with the crew, Borg tech getting wonky, or the Queen's weird obsession with her.

T'Pol suffered, but she didn't acknowledge it.

Novels could be written about Geordi's love life :^D

Picard went through a lot of shit, including but not limited to Gul Madred. Sisko literally jumped into the fire caves...

We just watched Shattered tonight on DVD. Perhaps the best episode for his character, he and Mulgrew were so good.

@ColesStreetPothole @MisophonicSpree @startrek

I love that one! Probably a top 5 VOY for me.

#AllStarTrek

@ColesStreetPothole @MisophonicSpree @startrek

Trying to figure out my top 5 VOY to the best of my memory. In no particular order...

Bride of Chaotica!
Someone to Watch Over Me
Course Oblivion
Shattered
Counterpoint?

There's a bunch more that have segments that really stand out to me, but I think That's the 5 I'd take if I could only have those eps.

#AllStarTrek

@lxskllr @ColesStreetPothole @MisophonicSpree @startrek My top 5 #StarTrekVOY episodes (off the top of my head):
โƒ Tinker, Tenor, Doctor, Spy
โƒ Message in a Bottle
โƒ Deadlock
โƒ Counterpoint
โƒ Timeless

#AllStarTrek

@lxskllr @sezduck @MisophonicSpree @startrek Yeah, so now we have a top ten, or maybe top 13 or 14? ๐Ÿคฃ

@ColesStreetPothole @sezduck @MisophonicSpree @startrek

:^D

That's why I like a top 5 list. 1 is too few. You just say "Hell if I know", and abandon the project.

>5 is luxurious, and you can miss pain points. Too easy.

With 5, you get a very small assortment so you can have different styles, but cuts will have to be made. It focuses attention on what you really value, and how much you value it.

Years ago, I used to do this with my partner at work. We'd get rain time, or just not feel like working, and we'd compile best-of lists sitting in the truck. We had a notebook full of arcane lists of just about anything in life :^D

@ColesStreetPothole @sezduck @MisophonicSpree @startrek

Wow, not sure I can do 5. I'll see what happens.

Trappist Preserves - Damson Plum

Kalimera - Plum

...

That's the best I an do with specifics. I like fig preserves, but they aren't super common, so I get whatever brand I can. The Danes seem to do a good job with preserves. I get whatever brand from them, favoring currant.

@lxskllr @sezduck @MisophonicSpree
We are a toast and jam centric family. ๐Ÿ˜ I could have done 10, with a lime marmalade and cherry preserves starting the second half of the list, and then maybe rose hip jam, blueberry, and apricot.

[removing the Star Trek group tag, don't think they need to hear about this diversion ๐Ÿ˜‚ ]

@ColesStreetPothole @sezduck @MisophonicSpree

:^D

I get in and out of moods with it. The Trappist Preserves are a firm favorite though. I was recently looking on their website about shipping(they do). It's become hard to find in the local stores around here.

@lxskllr @sezduck @MisophonicSpree I will have to keep my eyes open for them. ๐Ÿค” There are some good local brands popping up in upstate New York, so I pick those up when I can.

@ColesStreetPothole @lxskllr @MisophonicSpree @startrek Pakled Preserves
Jelico Jelly
Boilan Blueberry
Tuckerโ€™s Smuckers
