I too was weary, having come from the first "great migration" near 2 years back. Was pleasantly surprised to find the wonderful people here don't give a fuck.
Thanks for linking. Was somewhat familiar, but it's such an antiquated term, even from the time of the book's publishing. Doesn't read well in modern context.
That's a truly rare perspective these days. Got a mild shade of "rustic living" as a Boy Scout some decades ago. Might not fare as well, but could certainly survive for a bit. The "be prepared" mantra keeps ringing in my head.
Might qualify for the 3rd. Not an MD, but have plenty of specialized training.
Even so, just a topical meme I cranked out. Work and family are here. Gonna make the best of it, no matter how much I have to drink and watch Star Trek.
Always a tough question. TOS, while dated, is the primer. I grew up as TNG was airing. It's janky and problematic until about the 3rd season. DS9 is the best of the best as far as I'm concerned, but it's a slow burn to build the characters and get to the meat of the arching story. Of course, there's a chronological approach, however, kinda messy.
Try out one for a few episodes, see what strikes your fancy.
