Does Star Trek count? It had its final season in '69, but syndication in the '70s is where it really came into its own. I used to watch it every day after school, It came on at 4:00 PM every weekday afternoon. I watched it so much, it got to the point where I could give you the title of the episode and a brief synopsis of the plot after seeing/hearing less than 10 seconds or so of the start. I credit Star Trek for getting me into "serious" science fiction (by which I mean science fiction for science fiction audiences, rather than science fiction for general audiences). Except for the movies based on the original series, I was never able to "get into" all the spin-off stuff that came later (with a few superb exceptions such as Firefly, I've never been able to muster much interest in general-audience "sci-fi" stuff).

It was. According to Chris Carter, the Night Stalker was one of the primary inspirations for the X Files. I remember seeing or hearing something about why the Kolchak character never actually appeared in The X Files, but I can't recall the reason. It probably had something to do with not being able to get the rights. Using Darren McGavin as another character was the closest they could come.

Hell, yeah! I loved that show. Kolchak was a great character. It's a damn shame it only got one season and so few episodes.

Civil War - Sound And Fury, Signifying Nothing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-M-fSvtQxk {The Critical Drinker | 15 April 2024} Well, talk about disappointment. I'd hoped Alex Garland's new thriller would have given us a gripping story filled with interesting characters, but instead what we got was a bland, empty collection of scenes with no strong story to tie them together. What a wasted opportunity.

'Rust' armorer sentenced to 18 months in prison for involuntary manslaughter conviction https://www.usatoday.com/story/entertainment/celebrities/2024/04/15/rust-armorer-hannah-gutierrez-reed-sentenced-alec-baldwin/73325809007/ {Taijuan Moorman | 15 April 2024} "Rust" armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed has been sentenced to 18 months in prison after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter last month in the 2021 shooting death of Halyna Hutchins. Though Alec Baldwin, 66, pulled the trigger, a jury found Gutierrez-Reed had erroneously loaded a live round into a revolver he was using on the Santa Fe, New Mexico, movie set. Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer addressed phone calls Gutierrez-Reed made from jail, citing comments she made to family and friends as evidence she had failed to take accountability.

The aft pressure bulkhead is kind of important ... The Worst Single Aircraft Disaster In History https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lUzAmkp7iQw {Mayday: Air Disaster | 13 August 2021} August 12, 1985 - It was supposed to be a brief flight from Tokyo's Haneda Airport to Osaka for the 509 passengers on board the Boeing 747. Five minutes after taking off, the flight crew report that the plane's in distress. The plane had suffered a failure of its rear pressure bulkhead at the back of the cabin. The pilots could no longer operate the flying controls and worse, the plane is plunging up and down. For 30 minutes, the seasoned pilots struggled to tame the runaway jet and shortly after, the plane ploughed into the slopes of Mt. Osutaka, not far from Tokyo. All but 4 passengers are killed making it the worst air disaster involving a single aircraft in the history of commercial aviation.

Ana Kasparian Visits Hell https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2aEX9U0FCM {A Special Place in Hell | 15 March 2024} Inexplicably, the girls/women are graced by the Edward R. Murrow of YouTube punditry, the lovely Ana Kasparian, executive producer and co-host of the long-running political commentary show The Young Turks. Ana guides us through the old and new media landscapes and shares the alarming experience at the root of her heterodox awakening. The girls/women share their frustrations with the Left (a first!) and wonder whether friendships discourage intellectual honesty (except the one with their new bestie Ana of course!!!). Finally, the hosts receive some tips on improving their grift.

Warp Drives: New Simulations https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZC65Q3F_Mk {Sabine Hossenfelder | 14 April 2024} Hyperjumps, wormholes, and warp drives sound like science fiction, but they’re actually based on real science! Though I believe out of the three, warp drives are the most plausible. The math seems to agree. Today I want to tell you about a new way of analysing and visualizing warp drives.

"One screen, two many movies." It all depends on what narrative "filters" one adopts. And such "filters" are not objectively provable. They are the presuppositions that make subsequent "proofs" possible.

THREAD: Rand Paul and the COVID cover-up

Elections actually are "quaint mechanisms that we can't trust" - even when they are entirely "on the level". As Gideon Tucker famously wrote, "No man's life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session" - nor while the polls are open, I would add. (Alexis de Tocqueville had a good deal more to say on the matter, as well.) Whether it's "too adult" a thing to expect or not, it's certainly too much of a thing to expect. In any case, Kennedy has too much unlibertarian baggage to be anything but just another "lesser evil". However, I will gladly leave it to others to parse out to their own satisfaction which of the available evils is less than the rest. It doesn't really matter, because Anti Federalist is right: we aren't voting our way out of this - and neither Trump nor Kennedy nor anyone else is coming to save us. (If there is anything "too adult" to expect enough people to understand, I dare say it is that.)
