as a kid i used to watch nickelodeon all the time, so i saw a ton of reruns of older shows. one of those i loved was Dennis The Menace. one ep that surprised me even then was one where it showed an old woman with an ELECTRIC car

a baker electric. the car was 50 years old when it appeared in this ep
black and white screen from dennis the menace showing dennis and his friend tommy climbing on the side of an old 1910 baker electric car as the owner looks on.

Screenshot of a quote from Terry Pratchett's "Making Money" which reads "Look, I can explain," he said. Lord Vetinari lifted an eyebrow with the care of one who, having found a piece of caterpillar in his salad, raises the rest of the lettuce. "Pray do," he said, leaning back. "We got a bit carried away," said Moist. "We were a bit too creative in our thinking. We encouraged mongooses to breed in the posting boxes to keep down the snakes…" Lord Vetinari said nothing. "Er… which, admittedly, we introduced into the letter boxes to reduce the numbers of toads…" Lord Vetinari repeated himself. "Er… which, it's true, staff put in the posting boxes to keep down the snails… " Lord Vetinari remained unvocal. "Er… These, I must in fairness point out, got into the boxes of their own accord, in order to eat the glue on the stamps," said Moist, aware that he was beginning to burble. "Well, at least you were saved the trouble of having to introduce them yourselves," said Lord Vetinari cheerfully. "As you indicate, this may well have been a case where chilly logic should have been replaced by the common sense of, perhaps, the average chicken. But that is not the reason I asked you to come here today."

“It was nice to hear the voices of little children at play, provided you took care to be far enough away not to hear what they were actually saying.” ― Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

Pratchett had it pegged
And then, of course, there are the laws of chance. They play a far greater role in police procedure than narrative causality would like to admit. For every murder solved by the careful discovery of a vital footprint or a cigarette end, a hundred failed to be resolved because the wind blew some leaves the wrong way or it didn't rain the night before. So many crimes are solved by a happy accident – by the random stopping of a car, by an overheard remark, by someone of the right nationality happening to be within five miles of the scene of the crime without an alibi . . .

It should be a codified rule of the internet by now, but there is ALWAYS, a Pratchett quote.

(yes, the punctuation is actually said out loud by the characters. it became a running gag)
Screenshot of the oath of the city guard of anhk morpork from terry pratchett's discworld series. it reads as follows I comma square bracket recruit’s name square bracket comma do solemnly swear by square bracket recruit’s deity of choice square bracket to uphold the Laws and Ordinances of the city of Ankh-Morpork comma serve the public trust comma and defend the subjects of His stroke Her bracket delete whichever is inappropriate bracket Majesty bracket name of reigning monarch bracket without fear comma favor comma or thought of personal safety semicolon to pursue evildoers and protect the innocent comma laying down my life if necessary in the cause of said duty comma so help me bracket aforesaid deity bracket full stop Gods Save the King stroke Queen bracket delete whichever is inappropriate bracket full stop

always a pratchett quote
screen shot of a quote from terry pratchett's a hat full of sky that reads, 'But you don't understand us,' said Tiffany. 'I don't think any human could survive you. You give us what you think we want, as soon as we want it, just like in fairy stories. And the wishes always go wrong.' Yes. We know that now. We have an echo of you now. We have ... understanding, said the hiver. So now we come to you with a wish. It is the wish that puts the others right. 'Yes,' said Tiffany. 'That's always the last wish, the third wish. It's the one that says “Make this not have happened”.'

as Pratchett noted, "A city like Ankh-Morpork was only two meals away from chaos at the best of times."

Then when a tyrant tries to starve his people to make himself richer, things blow up.
“The riot was over the price of bread, I understand.” No. The protest was over the price of bread, said Vimes’s inner voice. The riot was what happens when you have panicking people trapped between idiots on horseback and other idiots shouting “yeah, right!” and trying to push forward, and the whole thing in the charge of a fool advised by a maniac with a steel rule.

its clear more people need to read the "Declaration Of Independence".
In Congress, July 4, 1776 The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

its all about the running Satsuma. if you got a Satsuma, and it runs*, you are set.

(*anyone that knows about the Satsuma knows what it means that its actually functional. its the equivalent of having a full grown Audrey 2)
picture of a cherry red Satsuma from My Summer Car. modeled after a datsun 100. a car that needs hours of work and possibly a blood sacrifice to get assembled and get running. and regular offerings to the gods of motor cars to keep working for more then a single trip to the store.

"You know, for kids"
screen of scene from lords and ladies "Miss Magrat?" "Ask her," said the elf, "if there is any food and water in there." "Miss, they say-" One of the elves jerked him away. Two of them took up station either side of the doorway, and one put his pointed ear to it. Then it knelt down and peered through the keyhole, taking care not to come too near the metal of the lock. There was a sound no louder than a click. The elf remained motionless for a moment, and then keeled over gently, without a sound. Shawn blinked. There was about an inch of crossbow bolt sticking out of its eye. The feathers had been sheared off by its passage through the keyhole.

oh, its even fucking worse when you read her full statement.

fuck. her.
screenshot of part of joanne's full rant on twitter, the screen reading The greatest irony here is that, had Emma not decided in her most recent interview to declare that she loves and treasures me - a change of tack I suspect she's adopted because she's noticed full-throated condemnation of me is no longer quite as fashionable as it was - I might never have been this honest. Adults can't expect to cosy up to an activist movement that regularly calls for a friend's assassination, then assert their right to the former friend's love, as though the friend was in fact their mother. Emma is rightly free to disagree with me and indeed to discuss her feelings about me in public - but I have the same right, and I've finally decided to exercise it.

"Look what they took from us" vs seeing the whole picture
imagine showing classic american suburban street in black and white, white picket fences, a milkman delivering milk. same image, zoomed out, showing a row of flowers that are color when everthing else is black and white. and a tree, with a sign on it that reads "town meeting. tonight. all true citizens of pleasentville, and here the word true is underlined, town hall. 8 o'clock. and now seeing its a scene from the film pleasentville. a film that seems like a cozy comedy, until the riots on the streets over, literal, color.

also, hey, dumbass, kinda hard to vote uncommitted if you don't get a primary, which, being in FL, we never got. we just got a candidate shoved down our throats that we were forced to swallow. so my voice was never counted no matter what.
screen shot of post from nolanator that reads. Campaigning against the option that’s not fascism is actually helping the fascists! We had a time for that, it was voting uncommitted. Then it was time to close ranks and fight the fascists. Congratulations on being a fascist, asshole. I see which side you chose.
