Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Only thing I can come up with is this.... (That'd be a pretty cool thing to go home in, ya gotta admit.) 1161
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Pairs nicely with this warning from 99 years ago... 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Robert Shaw, Swashbuckler. (Which I wish had been a better movie.) 110
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Okay, so this ran two, but the ratings were such that at the end of Season One they killed off everyone - with an H bomb! So I'm going with: (Plus a kick-ass opening theme from Danny Elfman) 0160
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Here's a Venn diagram in human* form of all three: ______ *presumably... 040
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Now that he mentions it, "fake intelligence" would be a better characterization. 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 27/09/2026The Bolt Brothers! I used to watch that show, and quite enjoy it. Trivia - two of the actors in that series were also on Star Trek. Which inspired this rather odd crossover novel, with Spock winding up in 19th Century Seattle amid the characters from Here Come The Brides. 020
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Even if so, so what? As long as they're wearing pilots' uniforms when they fly the plane, I'm not much interested in what they're wearing in the off hours. 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 23/09/2026In contrast, consider another president whose feelings got hurt fairly regularly. 040
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Genuinely a brilliant filmmaker. Chuck Jones made a Twilight Zone episode 4 years before there was a Twilight Zone. (Yeah... you see it now. You can even swap in Burgess Meredith...) 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Some dude wrote a whole book about how well industries self-regulate around 120 years ago. 1374
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 15/09/2026But Homer, on your way out if you want to kill somebody, you would help me a lot. 041
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 14/09/2026There may not be a Manman, but there is a Batbat... 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Prostitution may be the World's Oldest Profession, but religion is definitely the World's Longest Con. 120
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 09/09/2026My formative years were spent savoring the artwork of Curt Swan. 110
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Yep. I also remember delegates to the 2004 GOP convention mocking the Purple Heart. 'Cause they support the troops and all... 020
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Kinda feeling like Star Trek itself tried to warn you... 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 08/09/2026"The US has also not suffered a large-scale catastrophic attack since." Maybe you're just not looking in the right direction. 071
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 07/09/2026The Ring passes judgement on any bearer. One must be honest, and one must be without fear. He fails on both counts. 010
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I've seen teeth like that before. Hang on... It'll come to me... 001
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 04/09/2026This seems like a good point to remind everyone that the modern GOP has its roots in an explicit rejection of Eisenhower's moderation.* If you haven't read it, I highly recommend "Before the Storm" by Rick Perlstein. 110
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Actually, this guy had kind of an origin, but they covered it in a sentence. A very short sentence. 020
Kurt Weldon @kurtweldon.bsky.social · 03/09/2026One of the things I loved (and still love) about this show was that NOBODY had an origin. They were just there, doing whatever their thing was. 140
