I haven’t, and I’ll have a look at those, thanks!

 

I like scifi and horror, and recently I love time travel and ghost stories. I’m annoyed with tropes and overcooked scripts.

Ideas?

People seem to forget that GenX saw this shit and was like, no more. That’s what led to the current drive to fix this. But GenX doesn’t get credit for starting it – we’re grouped with boomers for some reason.

The rivers of fire was one major thing that contributed to the formation of the EPA, actually. In the preceding decades, if was totally normal for industry to just dump whatever waste into rivers and nobody cared.

We still have far too much pollution going on, but I feel many people have forgotten just how egregious it was before government regulations were put in place to stop shit like that.

It’s pretty bad now, but more to the point, we’re still paying for the wanton destruction wrought decades ago. And now ‘conservatives’ (air quotes because in this case, it’s the opposite) want to roll back regulations because freedom.

Rivers on fire, gay bashing, satanic panic, abortion clinic bombings, acid rain…

Shit was wild, and often not in a good way. 70s fashion was groovy, though.

 

That one that helps you sleep, or that you could watch a thousand times?

Mine is the 1970s animated version of The Hobbit.

 

I’d never considered this before, but I got a batch of screens that includes steel and copper (I’ve always used copper), and I’m wondering what’s the difference? Is there a benefit to either? Thanks!

 

This may or may not be associated with music stands or equipment. I can’t remember.

I just emptied and re-did my music/video room, and found this bracket in a small box with no labels or anything. I can’t remember what it’s for. I think it’s either audio or video related, but it doesn’t seem to match any of my mic or equipment stands, though it might be. It’s devoid of any branding or part/serial numbers. No markings of any kind.

It folds like this:

There’s a sliding mount screw on the bottom:

Thanks!
