It's amazing that the low IQ Trump doesn't realize that his pathetic neediness has made him an international laughingstock.

Trek fan since TOS in '66. "Starfleet Academy" is worst Trek since "Voyager." Hope it gets better but premiere episode is an abomination.

“28 Days Later: The Bone Temple” is a visceral film that will either convince you that a zombie movie can have substance or else make you wonder if the people praising the film are zombies themselves. For the record, this reviewer is definitely in the former camp.

Finished the first draft of my next book, a new collection of pieces on SF movies. Much work to do and unlikely to be out before next year, but a definite milestone. A follow up to my "Jar Jar Binks Must Die."

If you don't want people to have opposing opinions then posting on social media is probably a bad idea.

<sigh> Just had to block some fool who considers people like Ted Lieu and Jamie Raskin to be the enemy because they didn't support a futile effort to impeach Trump.
I'd love to get Trump out, but empty gestures at this time are a waste of time and energy.

Unless there are 67 certain votes to convict, any attempt to impeach Trump is a futile waste of time that will only empower him. And anyone thinking the 25th amendment will save us hasn't read it.
