I noticed that someone on this board recently described themselves as like Commander Data from Star Trek. Very able intellectually but struggles emotionally and socially. It was something like that and I can't remember who wrote it.
But I thought Commander Data was a good metaphor for how I feel and behave- able intellectually but struggles emotionally and socially. Does anyone else feel like that? Data was my favourite character in Star Trek, this must be why!
That'll be me. In the Star Trek universe, I'd do very well. On planet earth, I'm screwed.
I also identify with "David" from the film A.I. - sort of robotic and *almost* human but just missing the finer details of human interaction so easily manipulated by people with an agenda..
I'd be an excellent android, haha! I love Data, with his fake laugh. It was interesting how Lor was too human though and scared people.
I hated AI, it was sad and horrible. When the mum had to abandon the little boy android in the forest, it gave me nightmares.
Ha I love data by the way I met Sir Patrick Stewart a couple of years ago it was awesome.
No what’s that?
please dont bother
I'll try to find the detailed breakdown for you. Disney is in big financial trouble - 27000 employees made redundant recently - Disneyland California may end up closing permanently.
There's also an investigation going on into 'financial irregularities' that have been going on for years over-declaring profits.
They just announced that the cruise business probably won't re-open until mid 2022 and the Disney annual passes have just been scrapped.

why has this formatted like this ?
Shares of Walt Disney are up 15.6 percent since last year and more than 127 percent since Disney purchased Lucasfilm six years ago today.
Over 23 total films, the MCU has grossed nearly $23 billion at the worldwide box office. Lucasfilm, meanwhile, has delivered five films for Disney in four years, generating a gross profit of nearly $2 billion for the conglomerate.
I wish I had bought some shares !
