Shatner is following in the steps of Larry King to host an infotainment show on RT. In typical Shatner fashion, he's gone into attack mode against those calling him out for serving as a stooge for ol' buddy Vlad.

You know, I used to look at how these years went in Star Trek: TOS and TNG during the initial airings and think, "wow, good thing it didn't pan out like that."

Turns out we were just ~20-30 years off. Only there'll be no Warp Drive or "First Contact" after the resource wars.

I was real big on the TOS pulp novels in middle school and found one at my brother's house I had missed years ago and read it this week.

Yeah, so turns out Spock's World (1988) is about a racist secession crisis on Vulcan fueled by internet message board trolls paid to seed societal unrest by a real estate developer because Spock & McCoy hurt her feelings once. They also cracked the case open because Bones had a backdoor into the server logs.

I spent about 5 minutes at a Michele Bachmann campaign event with my great-grandma in 2012 and we dipped out almost immediately because the Nuremburg vibes were unmistakable. Also counted at least 5 dudes in completely sweat-yellowed pinstripe seersucker.

At least Mike Huckabee gave away popcorn at his thing and expressed some kind of positive goals, Bachmann's was just a stark undecorated hotel ballroom boiling over with white rage and we didn't even stick around for anyone to begin speaking.

My brother and his wife's family that he lives with are all solidly antivax even though they all got the rona bad in november and her died died.

They already demo'd the bridge, finished sometime around 3 this morning.

I know the pivot will take several years bit I would to love to see how biz school curriculums evolve from this. Journals like HBR were jizzing over things like open offices and servant leadership when I was in undergrad, then 5 years later in postgrad they hated them.

JIT will probably go down in history with Lamarckian evolution and phrenology as dead end ideas. We’ll have a period where robustness and redundancy become fetishes in corporate strategy. Companies will overbuild so much that in 2085, a single researcher at University of Miami (Atlantic Ocean) will blow the dust off an ancient tome. “Six Sigma”, he’ll mutter to himself. “Interestingggg”
