3. Strangelove ❤️❤️❤️

I was a kid growing up in Mississippi and it was SOOOO smart and funny and different from everyone and everything around me. I’m toying with the idea of a memoir about being raised by media when the world around me just didn’t make sense, and Kubrick was a big part of that media.

4. A GREAT idea for a memoir!

5. I thought of it when Shatner went up in SpaceX

It was a funny full circle moment, from Star Trek to his clear awe at having made that excursion, however small. I loved Star Trek at a time when I needed hope for the future, and here we were. I think it’s pretty relatable, finding like minds “out there” when you think you’re the only one who feels like you do.

I suppose DU is a part of that, eh?

6. No doubt DU is part of that.
