Out of Hand


A Facebook post that I’m always happy to have show up in Memories is somehow
from a dozen years ago now.

My sister and her kids are visiting. We’re in Mom’s driveway playing with those little wrapped snappers you throw on the ground. My sister J momentarily blanks on both the word “grown-up” and the word “adult”.

I’ll be sharing an overdue post on Star Trek here in the next few months, phasers crossed.

Meantime, I have this. I was moved to file it away three years ago while reading a
bunch of DC’s supernatural anthologies, and now I guess I know why. Yes, Strange New Worlds had already launched, but — although not exactly ripped from the screen — the panel didn’t quite seem to resonate with anything until this past week’s episode, “The Griffin Incident”. I won’t explain since that feels unnecessary if you’ve seen it and obnoxious if you haven’t yet and want to. Spoilers are fine in the comments, however, as I would love someone to at least headcanon away the pink dress.
