A Romulan ambassador, a forger, Garak's friends. And the cost to Sisko is not a physical death but the death of idealism about the institution he works for - and idealism about himself. /217 Feb 2025 03:28 +0000at://did:plc:ehmc3umvbvxpp7z2dvrj5kst/app.bsky.feed.post/3lidsj6njl72qhttps://bsky.app/profile/frankwu.bsky.social/post/3lidseogcvy2iBoskone! Wu's first principle of storytelling: You can't get something for nothing. Somebody (not necessarily the "hero/ine") has to pay for the happy ending. Sometimes it's a death. But a death doesn't necessarily have to be physical. It can be a spiritual/emotional death/117 Feb 2025 03:25 +0000at://did:plc:ehmc3umvbvxpp7z2dvrj5kst/app.bsky.feed.post/3lidseogcvy2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/frankwu.bsky.social/post/3kjcqhqbqa526It's award season!

Trump '24 voters are driven by REVENGE. They chose him in '16 and see every lawsuit or trial as a personal attack. They LOVE lies about Dems bc it re-affirms that Trump (and they) were right all along. They want him to be a DICTATOR who crushes everyone else.19 Jan 2024 05:17 +0000at://did:plc:ehmc3umvbvxpp7z2dvrj5kst/app.bsky.feed.post/3kjcqgljjkl26https://bsky.app/profile/frankwu.bsky.social/post/3kgkvkz55ps2cExcellent review of my novel "ESPionage: Regime Change" with Tom Easton from Kirkus Reviews.

Trump is possibly indirectly responsible for this war in Israel. Remember that private mtg with Trump and Putun where no transcript was provided and no (US) press allowed and military secrets of a US ally were discussed? Who was that ally? Israel. https://tinyurl.com/45tpvkxv09 Oct 2023 00:44 +0000at://did:plc:ehmc3umvbvxpp7z2dvrj5kst/app.bsky.feed.post/3kbbrlttymb26https://bsky.app/profile/frankwu.bsky.social/post/3kaxahg4mls2zPatrick McHenry once went to Baghdad, IDing US facilities and filming an enemy missile missing said facilities.
