It’s been a while since I had this dream, and the details might as well be on the dust accelerating my disintegration, but I had to get rid of the Stargate episode I kept bookmarked because it reminded me of the clever workaround of new portal technology that allowed travelers to go to and fro their destinations even with the requirement that someone on the other side enter at the same time. (It’s probably the introduction of the Mario-themed warp pipe to Animal Crossing that triggered this one, or the most recent use of the long-running idea that we’ll only get across the vast distances of space with tickets to the subway from our parents—though the Expanse has been great, especially the Star Blazers-like naval battles.) Dream logic logic being what it is, however, I’m no longer able to discern challenge nor solution; maybe it was finding a different volunteer back home to allow the return trip? Carter sure was a quicker thinker.
