Nearly all the Extras in this iconic scene were French expatriates. Their tears during the stirring rendition of La Marseillaise were genuine— filmed at a time when the fate of France was still uncertain. CASABLANCA (1942)

Book 234: Star Trek: The Last Starship 📱🦹‍♂️🚀💙📚🪐 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2 Following the cataclysmic events of The Burn, a lone Fleet Commander puts together a ragtag team and a ship with a controversial warp core and engineer. Trek gets good when it takes chances on a story worth telling. Thanks to #IDW & #NetGalley
A 4 1/2⭐️ book review for Star Trek: The Last Starship from LiteraryLollapalooza.blogspot.com:

“Following the cataclysmic events of The Burn, in which 96% of Starfleet is lost when all inert dilithium explodes warp cores throughout the galaxy. Starfleet is destroyed; The crime syndicate The Emerald Chain is on the rise. A beleaguered Starship Captain and Fleet Commander puts together the Last Starship, the USS Omega, a ship run with a Borg warp core and Queen Agnes Jurati as the ship’s engineer. With a ragtag group of survivors, and no Federation to guide the way, Captain Sato turns to one of Starfleet’s greatest adversaries to help resurrect one of its greatest heroes. As bold and controversial as ST can get, this isn’t everyone’s Starfleet. But it is fearless storytelling to tell complicated, ethical human stories using such a beloved fan IP. For me, this is when Trek gets good: when it takes chances and gambles fan ire for a story worth telling. Thanks to #IDW & #NetGalley for the AR.”

Your annual reminder that any treats that have black icing are probably using activated charcoal for coloring which neutralizes meds like, say, birth control pills. Ask my cousin. Quint's 6 now. This also applies to antibiotics and head meds. Be careful, please.

Reading has become an endangered species. Which is half the problem with American political life. Maybe more than half. If you can't read, you can't think. Then you can fall for anything. The idea, for instance, that the truth is fake news.

It's not "super intelligence." It's not even "intelligence." It continues to fuck up easy questions, like to whom I dedicated my most recent book. Also, Mike Johnson is a craven, simpering weasel and none of the people standing near him in this video respect him even the tiniest bit.

A couple in Pilot Point, Texas, circa 1900. Aren't they well turned out? I get the feeling that they might be among Pilot Point's wealthier citizens. Her dress and purse are fantastic, as is his frock coat. It appears that she's carrying a shawl, too. Really super.
