I don't own a television or subscribe to Netflix, so haven't experienced Black Mirror. You make me speculate if I have been missing something nearing essential. Fortunately, I live in a village of a few hundred eccentric and occasionally bizarre souls surrounded close by dark mountains and sentient trees, so meet the mysterious and inexplicable daily. There's lots to ponder here in our little fold between the ridges. Reading your stuff kindles broader curiosities.

I love human imagination but your mysteries in the trees and mountains are no doubt superior.

The trees and mountains are what are available to me, Shaina. Mystery is revealed to anyone who watches and listens to their place, wherever that might be. What is superior? Everything is with everything else. Nothing alone has meaning. Relationship begets reality. What is imagination but recognizing what was there before us, knowing us before we knew it? None are lost, though all be changed. When we begin to seek, we are already found.

Yes, the Twilight Zone was a regular part of my TV fare growing up. Definitely remember "20,000 feet". And one other for which the title escapes me, but involves a post apocalypse world with the common character device of a lone survivor wandering the land desperately looking for companionship. His salvation seems to come from finding a library which will help him keep his sanity. Only he's wearing glasses without which he can't read. In the last scene he accidentally drops and steps on his glasses, destroying his last hope! Unforgettable. I have been totally unaware of Dark Mirror somehow, need to check it out for sure. Thanks
