(I went too far there...ha ha ha)

When the great reset happens, what will happen to Seattle? 
How do people used to good cell phone reception and take out meals 
survive when the foods trucks stop rolling and the electricity is out?

Gosh, I wish I could just see it unfold. 
When the white kids burned downtown because BLM, Soros had bricks 
delivered on pallets. Imagine if someone funded flamethrowers and 
grenades for  Schwab's big day.

What's the tipping point? No internet or electricity and 3 am door 
knocks? 


#95 of 121 by tod on Thu Oct 21 05:53:18 2021:

I'll whisper the tipping point to you but it may be muffled by my mask

I'm still hoping #84 comes true one day. Please let it happen.

"Kira Down Under" -EW!

Not butch or fat enough to represent IMO. And it needs to complain when 
you pull the string.

This comment under the article, "I am completely freaked out by the 
adults participating in a "doll community". LOL

(I'm quietly reassuring myself that my Mego Star Trek dolls are "action 
figures")

Yeah, that's pretty funny. 
Something I didn't think of on Christmas morning in 1975 when I was 5

resp:100 Been there, done that.

"Fascinating"

Love those little blue phasers and communicators.
FYI in case you didn't already know, Marty Abrams, the Mego founder 
resurrected many of the Mego "action figures" and added new ones like IT
 the Clown, Blair from Facts of Life and some Star Trek New Generation 
figures.  https://www.martyabrams.com/

I confess I bought a bunch of the Star Trek figures, the DC Comics 
figures and a couple of the Planet of the Apes (had to!!!). 
I sincerely wish they would bring Micronauts back but Hasbro has the 
license and they have been making promises for years with nothing to 
show for the fans. :(

resp:103 What a blast from the past! I didn't realize Mego got so big.


#105 of 121 by walkman on Tue Nov 8 23:12:09 2022:

I just checked Amazon and apparently the Planet of the Apes collection.

Looks like I'm behind on my collecting!!! 
IMO you are never too old for this stuff. :)

Remember Chaz? 
A great experiment into what a modern, Marxist civilization would look 
like. Mob rule reinforced with violence, dependency on external energy, 
food and other material goods while despising the providers of said 
energy/food/goods. Arbitrary, contradictory ethics that self-implode.  

But no one wants to talk about it for obvious reasons. 
I wonder why GOP types didn't say during the election, 'If Marxist 
policies worked, than Chaz would have been a success. Remember Chaz?'


#108 of 121 by tod on Mon Nov 28 05:51:43 2022:

CHAZ/CHOP is the reason I'll never go back to Seattle.  Insanity.


#109 of 121 by walkman on Mon Nov 28 13:31:14 2022:

The crime problems that arise from intentional poverty (underachieving, 
entitled white people with flippant criminal aspirations) is causing 
businesses to leave blue cities. They can't call it white flight
anymore!

Defund police, decriminalize theft and setup tent cities outside 
businesses and wonder why you no longer have access to fresh food. 
RACISM! They can't complain their way into legitimacy or prosperity. 

2023 is going to be :fire:


#110 of 121 by tod on Mon Nov 28 18:27:20 2022:

Air marshalls on 1% of flights because they've had to divert all resources
to the border patrol.  9/11 v2.0 isn't if but when.
Meanwhile, if there aren't impeachment proceedings then consider it
all a done deal that there is no one guarding the country.


#111 of 121 by walkman on Tue Nov 29 12:47:48 2022:

Airlines have announced that only one pilot will be driving the plane
due  to "early retirements" (not vaccine mandates!). I sincerely hope
those  air marshals have flight training. America has been set up.

!!!
Don't worry though, with a rail strike on the horizon, there's no fear
of  starvation. Simply get your vaccine, collect unlimited government 
benefits, never leave the basement, migrate from twitter to mastodon.

Don't forget to ring the bell for updates.

Restaurants are closing across America. All-you-can-eat buffets are gone
 forever. Buy stock in frito lay (sorry it's private) and pepsi (PEP).

If anyone goes large with SCI, CSV and PLWN are they the guy who loads 
people into the trains? Dark Wednesday thought.

I drew up my 2023 investment plan this morning. Includes alcohol, 
tobacco, fast food, funeral services, public storage, discount retail, 
financial debt services and finally, private sector prisons. Not kidding
 at all. There's also a few dividend options thrown in for good measure.
 I'm 100% counting on people to make bad decisions and do what feels
good  for the moment.

After I made the list, I celebrated by dancing around the kitchen like 
this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=en1uwIzI3SE


#116 of 121 by tod on Thu Dec 1 05:07:38 2022:

Too much yoohoo will make you dance like that
or have explosive diarrhea
or both

Godspeed and maybe bad decisions fill your stock market sails, kind sir

I know Arthur Brown is English but he has Detroit DNA. Or maybe Iggy and
 Alice were copying him??? Hmmm... Alice has named him as an
inspiration.  Without Arthur Brown (who toured with Hendrix, The Doors
and Frank Zappa)  I don't think we would have Ramstein or Marilyn
Manson. 

Wouldn't it be fun to see Arthur Brown in one of those old Detroit or 
Hamtramck bars? I mean if you could go back in time. That video is 
probably the coolest thing I've ever seen on youtube.

I'm picturing Oopsy warming up on Sunday morning for his show using
Arthur Brown and Stooges videos

Michigan Republicans wanted to do away with collecting sales and use taxes
on "delivery and installation" services with a $200M tax incentive.
Their intent was to retain (or attract more) businesses to the state.
In California, a delivery charge is not taxable when:  You ship 
directly to the purchaser by common carrier, contract carrier, or US 
Mail. 
Hey Michigan, stop competing with Newsom for most Communist governor!

Seriously. 
*hands up*
*slaps forehead*
We just compete for ESG cookies and kudos. A race to the bottom.
John Kerry wants a new tax for "climate reparations." 
Remember, the "adults are in charge". 


#121 of 121 by tod on Mon Dec 12 16:24:10 2022:

re #120
California has a reparations bill already in the hopper..something like
$215k to select black folks as compensation for housing market disparities
in California.  It's going to be massive - and I'm still amiss what
the ROI is aside from redistribution of wealth. Not sure if they'll
tie it to a lending program or some other way to screw the recipients
into an insane mortgage or something.  Nobody ever wins with these
"handouts" which are veiled scams on everyone involved.
