Space Farce is the sequel to Spaceballs, but not nearly as funny and the director is a fuckwit (apologies to Mel Brooks)

someone made a short-lived sitcom called Space Force that streamed on Netflix. it wasn't very good, and it pains me to say that, because I'm friends with some of the cast members

It wasn't a classic, but I enjoyed it, especially when the Orange Asshole decided to create his own Space Force. He has no detectable sense of humor, so either he overheard the name and had no idea the TV show existed, or he thought the show was a documentary.

I tried watching it because—Steve Carell and John Malkovich in a comedy series about a goofy general tasked to run Space Force? Sign me up!

😮‍💨 🤷‍♂️

I thought I'd heard Obama actually founded Space Force—because he was due to undergo *pon farr*, and needed to return to his native Vulcan before he went berzerk and killed every idiot in Congress. Not that most Americans wouldn't have cheered that part of it, it's just then Trump would yell, "See! SEE! I told you he's not a REAL American!"

...right before Obama shut him up with the Vulcan Death Grip.

No, it's a deliberate strategy to make you feel worse. My husband was injured on the job early in our marriage (their fault, a permanent injury), I was pregnant, and they fired him the Monday before Thanksgiving. What do I think of employers? They're not nice people. Generally, a criminal class. I will say, when I was dotcomming, it was more fun than I ever had, but they pretty much ran the company into the ground in three years. I worked hard, made a lot of money, and paid for my son's college education. My supervisors and managers and I got along really well, and they were the only honest, appreciative management I ever really met.

I am fortunate to have a rare reaction to opiates: instead of a CNS depressant, they have a stimulant effect. It's almost impossible for me to OD. The downside is, I can't take them near bedtime because they keep me wide-awake. I suffer from terrible chronic pain, but can't take pain medication when I need it most. I have to go to bed 12 hours before I want to wake up, and I only get about 6 hours of actual sleep. 🙃

I feel like we are living in the worst episode of the Twilight Zone. I asked a friend who voted for Trump what he thought about all this, he thinks it’s funny, amusing, and don’t I have a sense of humor? Lighten up! he said.

Speechless.
