I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE
Doom and Age of Empires creator Sandy Petersen blasts Amazon over their handling of Stargate:
"1) get handed a massively popular IP that spans 17 years of successful shows."
"2) realize it has millions of loyal fans, desperate for more. They are now in their 40s and 50s, flush with money. Eager to teach their kids & grandkids about Stargate."
"3) you could start with this. You are already three steps up the ladder to huge success. The fans will evangelize it, if you don't wreck the IP. Don't believe it? Look how the fans evangelized Battlestar Galactica after its 30 year hiatus. And the initial Dr Who reboot after 15 years."
"4) cancel the project because you want a "new take" that will eliminate all the loyal fans and turn them into bitter enemies."
"It's like an ancient Greek play about hubris."
Why are corporate execs like this?
With the workshop gone, the area around our building site gets a lot more sunlight and a few native plants have appeared here we hadn't noticed before, including this Climbing Prairie Rose. Now, that it’s blooming again, hopefully it will also give us rose hips later in the year.
We don't really drink much coffee, but we have these extra coffee filters around for our guests. Turns out, they're really useful for filtering out the last bits of yeast and fruit from our homegrown peach wine.
We made this wine from peaches grown #downonthefarm quite a while back, so this weekend we decided it was time to taste it and bottle it. But is it still wine, or has it turned into vinegar? That's the question we're about to answer today.

Since we discovered two different native Clematis species #downonthefarm, we've begun adding other native species of Clematis in the picnic area. But today is the first time we've actually seen any of them bloom. #wildflowers

The sitting president of the United States sent lawyers from our department of justice to make sure our former Attorney General didn’t answer any questions about his potential involvement in a child sex trafficking ring.
But sure, nothing to see here, right?
We set a reminder to ensure we check on our mini barrels every two weeks. Even when we aren’t using them to age spirits, we keep them full of water so the white oak staves won’t dry out. If we don’t do this, the staves shrink, the steel bands loosen, and the barrels fall apart.
