We’re KEEPING our DISTANCE
We’re all QUARANTINED
We stay alone (ALL ALONE), for our friends in their time of NEED
Because WHO’s racing, and pacing, to flatten the curve
Docs fighting, and guiding, and keeping up their nerve
We’re keeping our distance
(Aaaa, ahhh)

Star Trek Picard spoilers
Ok. Watched Star Trek: Picard last night. The trope that we’ve created synthetic life forms that are indistinguishable from humans is overplayed at this point. Blade runner. Battlestar Galactica. The Matrix. I am forgetting some too.
And when exactly were these supposed to have been developed? At the end of Insurrection it wasn’t possible or even close. But decades before “now” they mastered it and had a rebellion and in the meantime some scientist made human ones.
