(sorry for that terrible link)
Yeah, that's pretty funny.
Something I didn't think of on Christmas morning in 1975 when I was 5
ripping Spock out of his plastic bubble.

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. :(

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?'

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:

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.

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

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.

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!

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.
