Haven't watched Prodigy, watched Picard through 2.1, and have seen all of the rest. I like Lower Decks best, then TNG, and SNW.

I listened on audiobook, but yeah it was slow and depressing and only mildly interesting.

Reply to comment by Zealousideal_Role189 in TIL about the famous American novelist Winston Churchill who was the reason why the British prime minister referred to himself as Winston Spencer Churchill. They met on occasion, but gradually Spencer Churchill’s rise to power steamrolled the American into obscurity. by OneLastConquest
I am an American who got addicted to BBC panel shows during lockdown. The American Alex Jones and UK Alex Jones are vastly different people, haha

Reply to TIL In the West the largest meal of the day has historically been eaten at midday. It was not until Napoleon's empire there was the "abominable habit of dining as late as seven in the evening" as British travelers reported. The British adopted later dinners by 1850 from changes in work schedules. by jamescookenotthatone
If you're in the American Midwest you learn that some rural areas have breakfast, dinner, and supper as their 3 meals rather than breakfast, lunch, and dinner, because like it says in the article, "dinner" was the name of the largest meal of the day regardless of time. Rural, heavily German areas tend to be breakfast, dinner, supper.
