A panel from Mad Magazine's "Star Blechh: The Next Degredation". Khan is beating up their parody of Deanna Troi. The Captain vows to have their lawyer send him a strongly worded letter - Tasha fears this might be too drastic, but Picard doesn't want them to look like wimps.

I want to create a charity running a service that constantly commissions and decommissions AWS servers running this, as many servers as they can afford based on people’s donations for that minute. https://zadzmo.org/code/nepenthes/

Three men sit at a table. 

At left, a destitute man sits with no plate.

At right, a working man sits with a plate containing one cookie, listening to the man in the center.

Sitting in the center is an old man in a business suit (looking suspiciously like right-wing media tycoon Rupert Murdoch) who is pointing at the destitute man, while speaking to the working man, saying:

"Careful Mate... that foreigner wants your cookie!"

Sitting in front of the man at center is his own plate, which contains MANY MANY COOKIES.

Americans: "Oh no, we couldn't _possibly_ replace Andrew Jackson with Harriet Tubman on the $20; what kind of precedent would it set if we just started changing the picture on our money?"
