The Human Adventure is Just Beginning. Celebrating Star Trek: The Motion Picture, which premiered in theatres on Dec 7, 1979. The film had flaws, but was a major triumph, for Gene Roddenberry, for the production team, and most of all for the fans, whose determination & persistence made it possible.

Protests of Trump may not look like the mass marches in 2017, but they're far more numerous and frequent β and also becoming more strategic.

Schiff: "I think that all of these strikes are unlawful. They are a form of extrajudicial killing. These boats are not invading the US in an armed assault ... the fact the administration may put a group of organizations on a list doesn't confer on a president the ability to kill them at sea."

I love the convenience of streaming, but for any movie or show that I really love, I want to own a physical copy. The quality often better, and it is much less likely to disappear suddenly if a license expires or a company merges out of business. And disks often have cool extras.

There's a quote attributed to Jonathan Swift, though opinions are varied about whether he actually said it. Makes a good deal of sense whoever coined it.
βIt is useless to attempt to reason a man out of a thing he was never reasoned into.β

This political cartoon by Paul Duginski, titled "Prison Industry Champagne Dreams," contrasts the suffering of immigrants with the financial gain of the private prison industry.
The cartoon is subtitled "The Agony and the Ecstasy".
The left panel shows an immigrant in handcuffs, with the sound effect "CLINK!" representing the cuffs closing.
The right panel shows hands toasting with champagne glasses, with the same sound effect "CLINK!" representing the glasses clinking together.
Tiny dollar signs float from the champagne glasses.
Paul Duginski really nailed it with this political cartoon. Follow the money, it always leads you to the corruption.

The Epstein coverup will go down as one of the greatest scandals and miscarriages of justice in U.S. history.
Everyone involved with Epsteinβs victims or with the coverup needs to be prosecuted and go down in shame.

I had a professor in college who got yelled at for giving an entire class a failing grade. You canβt fail them all! He said, βI didnβt fail them, they failed.β I feel like when it comes to like, cabinet appt or judges they want to seem fair, we canβt say no to everybody they put up! Yes, you can.
