I reiterate how much I hate HATE hate equal opportunity surveys. Why do you need that information? My forearm tattoo gets both a triangle and a Z, thanks.

am I going to the NAACP membership conference in uh, Boston?

Um no. I do not have the money to travel much, certainly not to Boston, and not to be rude, but I thought the reason we HAD an NAACP involved most members are not really rolling in money the way the fucking enemy is?

"Status?"
"We are cloaked. Federation ship approaching. Range, 10000 kallikams."

Coming around for a 049. Where's the damn beacon? Oh. I see it.

* promptly needs to take a few minutes away from Aliens to listen to the awesome James Horner Klingon tracks from STIII *

We're in the pipe, five by five. Looks like we're in for some chop.

listening to the Aliens soundtrack to help push through some weekend job hunting #WeEndangerSpecies #FlyTheFriendly

my city needs me

I swear my decision to make Chinese stuff as breakfast/lunch was not prompted by some pissant little rich yankee bigot, but because I got a windfall of baby bok choy

SKREEEEEEEEE

let's listen to The Nutcracker Suite in the middle of summer, hell why not

*Kevin Conroy voice*
BATMAN!

someone needs to punch that dude repeatedly until he starts saying more intelligent things, like "ow" for instance

more effective, someone needs to make sure that fucker can't be elected where he can harm people.

another thing you can sing to the tune of "My Sharona" is "Leyendecker"

remember when drawing Batman to use a softer line to emphasize the rounded forms of the lush, full buttocks which the character's known for

criminals are a cowardly and superstitious lot, and I must strike booty into their hearts

true story; the part of Zootopia where the police chief comes out with "the world has always been broken. That's why we need good cops," comes so close to talking about tikkun olam that it could have been something my Grampa said, and as such, it hit *hard*. It still kinda does.

Admittedly, of course, the NYPD are completely opposite to what I think my grandfather was hoping to do while there, and the police chief in the movie is a complete turd.

Oh. So there's a *them*, now.

oh YEAH the soundtrack from the part of Zootopia where suddenly it's Batman the Animated Series!

by the way, the part of the movie I liked most was how it suddenly became Batman the Animated Series for about 2 minutes there.

I would like to thank my Extremely Sicilian ex for how the exclamation "uhhh!" and cracking my knuckles (or trying to, I can't and she's an expert at it) has become my shorthand for a goomba, a kneecapper.

I've been lately realizing that a lot of what's effed up is a result of how capitalism wants to maximize ROI and is therefore very resistant to change.

A capitalist wants to reap the windfall of the next Apple, the next Jurassic Park or the next housing boom, regardless of how these things raked in that much money thanks to being new and unique. There's also a certain appeal to knowing you have a known moneymaker (like gas, or rent in the Bay Area). And then there's maximizing ROI by skimping on pay, employees, safety, maintenance, hours.

Consequently a lot of places where existence could be not-shit, are shitty. From Waffle House busting unions to studio executives planning to replace scriptwriters and extras with AI to jacked up rents to how fucking completely unexcited I am about anything superhero movie there is these days and more, it's all someone trying to maximize their ROI. Why would they change unless someone MADE them change?

And that's the government's job. Push change so that these guys have to figure out how to profit from unleaded gas, catalytic converters, relatively safe meat packing plants, etc. But of course when the government is thoroughly purchased, there's no way it will ever push the needed change. I don't especially love the idea of violent revolution, and despair of ever being able to push back as needed.
