It takes a village

..... asks village for help

Village response: .... sure! .... but here is a 20 page document that details the conditions that need to be met before we help

Are we just repeating history at this point?

I think America has enough vegetables

This is like saying a toddler was given a flame thrower and this is the resulting fire damage they've caused

None of this happened on its own ... it was all allowed to happen by our wealthy owners and overlords

Yeah, that looks more like a milk shake flavoured with a bit of coffee

.... but then again, this is Dull Men's club and I would drink that anyway ... even though I am lactose intolerant

It's an easy candy/sweet thing to make ... it's basically just frozen sugar water ... the more sugary the better

I'm in Canada in northern Ontario and the brand we grew up with was 'Mr Freeze'

The freezer stopped working and I had to eat all of them before they thawed out .... all 240 of them

We're talking about Superman here .... he would be giving himself up to these idiots because he doesn't agree with them and doesn't want to cause unnecessary death, destruction or damage involving innocent lives.

Then he'll come back later to destroy their fascist government

It's the escalating culture of public acceptance

  • first you accept disagreement
  • then accept disgust
  • then accept name calling
  • then accept lying about facts
  • then accept pushing people
  • then accept striking people
  • then accept beating people
  • then accept maiming people
  • then accept killing people
    .... I think we are at his level right now ... but knowing human stupidity and our long history of this sort of thing ... we'll keep escalating the violence
  • we'll probably go on to murdering people
  • go on to rounding up people for death
  • go on to just killing whoever is left just to remove all witnesses and anyone that might come back to continue the fighting

Because they want to protect government and power .... not people ... people don't matter ... money and power does

She'd probably love to be cheering in the crowd for the winner

 

I happened on a bit of TV trivia a while ago. I enjoy watching a Canadian TV Show on CBC called ‘Son of a Critch’ … great show with great writing and acting … it’s simple, holky, funny, endearing … reminds me of the 80s show ‘Wonder Years’ … and it’s all based on a family living in the 80s in Newfoundland … all things I really love and enjoy.

One of the show regulars is Malcolm McDowell … who played Soran in the Star Trek film ‘Generations’ ... I also found it amazing that someone like McDowell was co-starring in this little Canadian TV show.

In the episode ‘Old Friends, New Friends’ - Season 2 Episode 10 … one of the guest actresses was Alice Krige … who played the original Borg Queen from the Star Trek film ‘First Contact’

It was really neat to see McDowell and Krige together in the same scenes in this episode … Soran, a mad man in search of eternity and the Borg Queen in search of eternal slavery.

My wife likes watching America's Got Talent with all their highlight reels and it got me to thinking, there's a business out there making a ton of money from parents allowing their children to perform for free.

 

EDIT: ... changed title from 'monkeys' to 'apes' ... thanks to @Diddlydee@feddit.uk for pointing it out

 
 

Did everyone notice how this election wiped out all the previous leaders and now we're faced with being introduced to a new crowd of political leaders.

Elizabeth May with the Green Party is the only one still standing.

 
 

Star Trek: Enterprise - Season 2 Episode 23 - Regeneration

The episode starts in the 22nd Century in the Arctic .... and the first thought I had was .... WE BEAT GLOBAL WARMING!!! Because there's still ice and snow in the Arctic.

Every call I've ever had that was a wrong number, misdailed number, pocket dial or whatever that wasn't supposed to be for me turned out to be a spam call or marketing call for something. Most of the time, it was a way for me to confirm my number to some dumb marketer.

For the past year or two, I answer all mysterious calls I don't recognize and put it immediately on 'mute'. If the person calling doesn't identify themselves ... I let them hang up first and then I just block the number. If they identify themselves with some weird marketing message ... I let them hang up and then block the number.

 
 

I just lost two close relatives who were also friends today. We grew up as kids and they were about a year or two older than me. I've always been aware of death and accept it but when stuff like this happens, it's a really strong reminder of how we're all moving along in the line towards the end.
