Oh, it's been harbinged. We're in it.

There's probably a psychological aspect to it, I have a cat and need to give him oral meds that he hates. I have to grab him and force the dropper in his mouth, and only after months of half the meds dribbling out and the vet chiding me, did I start grabbing his head firmly and shoving the dropper in his maw.

Before that I was too soft and "aw poor little cat".

They got all the best weapons. Here's one page from the Raytheon catalog Bibi was leafing through the other day, circling one thing after another.

AIM-9X Romper Room baby-seeking missile (can explode in Star of David or menorah pattern).
BGU-12 Camp Camp refugee tent buster bomb (selectable dreidel or challah bread pattern).
YAL-2 Big Beautiful Beam anti food-aid-worker energy weapon (plays Havah Nagelah at every use).

Available in blue and white.

Includes free F-35 internal bomb bay rotary magazine. (Contact factory for F-15EX hardpoint stations.) Please allow 4-6 weeks for delivery, FOB Arlington County, Virginia to Tel Aviv, DC. Proudly made in America. Ask about toy merchandising rights for Christmas 2025!

I love how "socialism" is a smear in a country that has "e pluribus unum" on its money. Unum, only up to a point, I guess.

Nah, we just change the methods, the underlying mechanism is the same. For example, you need to win so you wrote "looks like I'm right", instead of clobbering me. But that innate human need to triumph over the other is still there.

I think you may have cause and effect inverted.

We as a species could have built a leisure society decades ago. The raw energy input of fossil fuels could have been wisely parceled out by a council of benevolent dictators, while we live under the domes and chase Jessica 7 on a monorail.

We could have done this 150 years ago when oil gave us 100 times more energy back than it took to extract it.

Humans are a defective species, we must see others suffer.

Still modding me down?

He's still useful to Israel. Bibi has some Raytheon catalog pages he circled items on.

 

A good find this afternoon I think. 10$ for these two, and Strangelove is in a metal jewel case thingy. Pretty good.

 

Star Trek The Motionless Picture through The Undiscovered Country plus The Captain's Summit for 7.50$. That's decent

 

Not me! Maybe not the best selection, there were more Warner Brothers discs, infamous for bit rot (it's real, even their regular DVDs die prematurely), I passed on those. I have a few and they are all dead.

[For those who don't know, HDDVD was the HD format that lost the format wars of the early 2000s. There are very few readers any more out there. The XBOX 360's external reader is one, the Toshiba machines are the others. I have both!]

 

Pretty lame I guess but this is pretty fancy and looks like unused and unopened. It really slowly, smoothly AND silently opens up.

Now to find magneto-optical disks.

 

All 6 seasons with 6 still sealed. Nostalgia, baby. I miss the '90s!

 

A real horroshow Bluray

 

A nice hat trick for today. I happened to be there when they were bringing fresh meat to the shelves. Picked 'em right off the cart. I mean "The Prisoner"? Come on now. Cosmos 2014 on Bluray?

 

Hey for 4$ who can complain? Each disc is immaculate.

 

It's like new. I guess I'll have to start playing games now, does Solitaire support joysticks?

C'est rare que je trouve des séries Québecoises. Je suis bien content d'avoir trouvé celle-ci, mais trouver la Saison 2... pas sur

 

I regularly find HDDVDs and the best part is they're always priced as a DVD. This one looks new. Maybe it was part of a starter bundle with someone's player years ago.

I don't even care about Star Wars due to my crippling cynicism, but for $4.50 who cares!
