β€œStop corporate greed” protest on an apartment development site at the end of my street with a large crane prevented from entering site. Two police cars and three police bikes keeping an eye on the protestors and not a single one doing anything about the crane blocking visibility on the main road.

Stumbled across this Star Trek Picard ending but with the Beach Boys. So good. πŸ––πŸ»

πŸ• Making pizza for lunch, with all of the anchovies. All. Of. The. Anchovies.

Finished The Diplomat on Netflix.

Good pacing, underlying story isn’t overly complex and links everything together. I’ve seen comparisons to West Wing but I think it’s closer to Madam Secretary. If you liked those or more recently The Night Agent or The Recruit on Netflix you should enjoy this. πŸ“Ί

Checking out Bluesky. Not sure I’ll use it actively but if nothing else I’ve reserved my username. Now to find some people to follow.

Spoiler free thoughts on the final episode of Star Trek Picard.

Nice touch having Walter Koenig do the voice of his son, the federation president.

Worf has had the best lines throughout the season.

That final scene with the TNG crew, a perfect way to end.

Watch the credits.

Brilliant.

🍸 Clocked off and going to a long lunch on a Tuesday. How decadent.

πŸ‘΄ I appear to have reached that stage of life where I straighten up, hold my lower back and sigh β€œoh dear”.

I count myself very fortunate to live close to the Brisbane river where I can find a patch of grass and enjoy a pleasant end to the Easter long weekend.

Front third is lush green grass then the Brisbane river through the middle. Apartment buildings and the City Cat (ferry) terminal are the other side with blue sky and patchy white clouds.
