As a lifelong Trekkie who has grown up with the Star Trek universe as a constant companion, I can confidently say that this list of 24 things we’re thankful for in 2024 is nothing short of phenomenal. From the iconic moments like “Just blow up the damn ship!” to the timeless characters like Captain Pike and Quark, this list takes me on a nostalgia-filled journey through the galaxy.
In the U.S., Thanksgiving is the occasion when we particularly emphasize appreciation. This appreciation encompasses everything we’ve accumulated after a long year. It’s a day to rejoice with loved ones, sharing laughter, and of course, enjoying scrumptious meals together.
I’m crossing my fingers that you’re having a splendid Thanksgiving today, filled with delicious food, great companionship, and entertaining activities. In anticipation of this, we thought it would be fitting to share with you 24 things we’ll be grateful for in the year 2024. These aren’t ranked or exhaustive; they just happen to number 24, which seems fitting given the year.
