LAZ the infamous

Almost as much time has passed from the end of Star Trek: TOS (1969) to Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) than the last of the new series of movies - Star Trek Beyond 2016.

So when are we getting the Chris Pine, Zachary Quinto, and Karl Urban in the maroon uniforms?

Yes, but also, these are the same people who don't see the Confederate Flag as a hate symbol.

When I was a kid my pop taught me something I'm going to paraphrase here:

If you are using the cross to sell your work instead of it standing on its own merit, it probably isn't that great of work.

Back in the day, it was about the cross, but I think the flag applies just as much if not more so.

I love my gay vampire show.

Oh, I always thought of it as the movie that was pure:

Someone steal this for me, so that I don't give WOTC/Hasbro any money.

I think I'm going to start selling "Tiger Insurance*" on Smackdown.

There are three movies better than the novels/short stories they were based on:

Stand By Me > The Body
Shawshank Redemption > The Rita Hayworth Redemption
Bicentennial Man > Bicentennial Man

Two Stephen King, and one Isaac Asimov.

Great fucking album. I based so much of my High School D&D campaign on it.

Considering I've never purchased a Jenga set, and yet somehow I've owned three of them, I think he's fine.

Actual contribution to the conversation:

Ease of set up and take down. I like the Portal boardgame, thematically it hits, the rules are pretty good, but the set up is a PITA. On a game night with limited time, it makes a difference.

I think in the next few years, there's going to be a massive slow down of new. That's when the real modern classics will show.

If we aren't going to have universal healthcare, I should be able to pay for whoever I want on my health insurance.

Good.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts.

But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy.

In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states.

This is why unions are vital.

SNW went from being one of my favorite ST shows to one of my least. Right now, it's battling ENT for that position (Huzzah Post 9/11 Jingoism!).

Part of the problem with AI is that we are using the term for several different similar technologies. Some of which are very beneficial, a few that are bad, and a few that are bad because of the way they are being used.

I've been trying to up my game when it comes to mini painting again. I plateaued a long time ago, and stopped trying, because it was so hard and takes so long. However, trying hard at art has been re-invigorating.

The school year is the day after Labor Day until the Friday Before Memorial Day.

I can't trust people who don't do crafts.

i've got a mate who lives in Shanghai who watches a lot of public domain films and likes to send me clips of things he likes

today he emailed me "hey do you want to see Gorgeous George doing the Devil's Kiss in 1949?"

I have yet again been tempted by the "Damaged" section of Mac.Bid. I take a look at the things I want that say they don't turn on, and I'm like "hmmm, I bet a little time with a multimeter and some solder would probably take care of that"

This is the plot of "CLICK!".

This week: a picnic.

Em, Don, and @laztheinfamous.bsky.social throw a potluck of summery wrestling matches including Masha vs. Allie Katch on the beach, Daizee Haze & Sara Del Rey vs. some ants, and the graduation of Billie Starkz!

This is what the front of every tv should look like.

Damn, we lost a legend.
