Well, y'all, I think we're gonna get that other type of dystopia after all. The William Gibson kind with corporations and oligarchs taking over all of government, not just behind the scenes with money and influence, but quite literally and directly.

They want to put RFK in charge of our health, but he cannot properly read a scientific paper and understand what it says. Or he didn't read the fucking paper at all, which is more likely. And of course this was on Joe Rogan, the multi-million dollar conspiracy machine that Spotify runs.

It's time for "Questions you didn't ask!"
The robot parade: This is my display of large-scale robot figures and models.
Mostly 1:6 scale or there about, except for the giant robots of course, like the Iron Giant and Sky Captain 'mechanical monster' (i should ask Kevin what they're actually called) which are necessarily smaller.
Also my ED-209 is more like 1:10 scale, but I printed and built a 1:6-ish one that... I still haven't finished.

All this talk of Gundam got me thinking
"I should 3D print a RX-78-2 Gundam"
which progressed to "I'm going to build a perfect grade (1:60) RX-78-2 Gundam"
which then progressed to "I'm going to build that Bandai mega (1:48) RX-78-2 Gundam! It's the right size for the robot parade!"
And this is where we are, gentle reader. An escalating war of scale.

I'm so sick of and mad at Trump and his henchmen. And it hasn't been two weeks yet .
They turned today's awful crash into a soundbite opportunity, blaming WITHOUT ANY EVIDENCE Biden, 'woke democrats', Obama, DEI, in either (or all) the air traffic control, airline pilots, or military.
Since then we know the military helicopter hit the jet, had been rightly warned off by air traffic control, and then Pete 'when did you stop beating your wife' Hegseth came out and said the pilots were experienced aviators.
Trump of course doesn't care about them or about that, he just wants to feed his stupid, rabid, gullible, half-witted, fanatical, simple-minded base some 'see, I told you' lies so they'll support him as he steals more and more power for the Executive.

Quark had to basically hack the computer to just see where the fixed replicators were, but Tosk (episode 5), an alien who is not part of the crew, can ask the computer where all the weapons are stored and get an answer. #DS9

It would have been a lot easier on everyone if they had just called Dax 'they' and stopped trying to shove them in one of two boxes. #DS9

Never mind, I take that back. In another scene it's shown better and it's not an oscillation overthruster. But they are everywhere in Star Trek.

So I'm watching Deep Space 9 from the beginning. I've never watched the whole thing just various episodes.
So many Easter eggs. Some I generally knew about, like in this episode (S01E03) Bashir is holding an oscillation overthruster: the Okudas snuck those in everywhere. But I was not expecting a mention of Alderaan on one of the displays. 😄

The Not Everyone Needs A Podcast Party has three core beliefs:
1 - Not everyone needs a podcast
2 - Podcasting equipment is too easy to obtain and should require an IQ test
3 - No one needs another movie show or some dumb douchebro talking to his even dumber best friend about [but not limited to] the Moon landing, why women just want their money, Libertarianism, or crypto.

Scott Lloyd, Trump HHA appointee and former Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, once tracked the menstrual cycles and pregnancies of pre-teen detainees so that he could deny their release long enough that they could no longer seek an [LEGAL] abortion.
(of course, he's also paid for one in the past when it affected him directly)
Fucking. Diabolical.

Fucking Amazon. This is a return I dropped off at their manned drop-off location on 12/31. I wonder how much interest per year they make off of this scam.
