You know how some days a question gets stuck in your mind? For me today, it’s the question of where the energy comes from for Star Trek’s matter replicators. (Reminder: I came to Star Trek much later than Star Wars, and I’m ok with that.) Does everything in the ST universe run on dilithium?

Sure, I could look it up, but instead I’m going to use the distraction to keep the part of my mind that focuses on the future happily entertained, instead of stressfully worried. Because that leaves me with more positive energy for action.

Whatever it takes, right?
