is this really the world you want your children to live in, and your children's children

That must have been something! Is the doc available?

Me: i dont want to go to work. I want to stay home and watch more Star Trek.

The spirit of Cpt. James T. Kirk appearing to me like Jor-El: mankind cannot simply live a life of leisure and ease. We require a sense of purpose and industry in order to truly live.

Me: ughhh i knowww

When I was a kid I met George Takei at a con, and nervously asked him what Sulu’s first name was. He answered “Hikaru!” like it was the first time he’d ever been asked. He was super cool.

This one gave 7 year old me nightmares!

Happy May 1st. The value of your labor belongs to you and the actions of the state are best understood as as a coordinated effort to distract you from this. The state fears an organized and unified proletariat like it fears death and rightly so. Power to the workers and power to the people

Rom from Star Trek ds9. Text on top reads “guys it’s not that hard to impress a woman. Just start a union. Be the guy who unionized his workplace. It’s a huge turn one women love it”

Happy May Day

Immediately after they fended off those Klingons. Like in the hallway.

I’m sorry you had to go through that.

I was a newspaper journalist, worked on a story about a trans teen trying to get his pronouns changed at HS. I hadn’t really even known there were trans kids. Meeting him and his supportive father really opened my eyes.

Maybe this year.

They got Baltimore in their mouths about dismantling the Department of Education because Baltimore is their primary success story for how they have always used racial segregation and underfunding to create a school-to-prison pipeline for poor and Black students. Don't fucking dare blame the victims.

I'm getting rid of my Tesla. In the last 3 weeks I've had 2 people give me a nazi salute and 1 yell heil hitler. The first one was in McHenry Row, the second was downtown on Pratt, and the third was in Charles Village. I should add that none of the people looked like real nazis or white supremists, they were simply shaming me. It worked.

I love Baltimore
