One more endorsement for the link bud s. Seriously underappreciated in ear buds. They are ridiculously comfy and sound quite well on top. + you don't look like some weird scifi character. They are very discreet inside the ear.

Maybe take the advice from the other posters over mine :). The original series is very dated by now. You really have to love star trek or old stuff to enjoy it tbh :)

Right at the beginning. Chronological. Don't skip anything, even the shit episodes

If you can't stomache the old stuff, any of the new trek series are pretty darn good to be honest. I'm especially fond of Strange New Worlds. It captures the adventure of the week style well, just like the old series.

As a high value individual you have to accept that you'll always be a target. Nobodies like you and me on the other hand? Nobody will bother.

Just imagine what they could come up with in the future. A female captain? A black station commander? No way, Star Trek has gone down the gutter. I'm not watching TNG. They can stick their wokeness where the sun don't shine.

Or, bear with me, just send a massive amount of spam mails to leaked mailing lists. Maybe 1 in a million reacts and you scam them (cfr all the "Nigerian prince" scams.

A looooot less work because the victim's will contact you themselves. No need to go and "compare which phones show up together and them figure out why they were together and then figure out if it was an affair or not and then contact them in the hopes they care enough to pay ransom"

I guess your username makes sense.

Halloween is over. I'm setting up my tree tomorrow morning. I'll only take it down mid February. I'll blast Christmas songs the entire time. It's the best season of the year. Fuck only celebrating it in December.

Nothing beats sitting around a Christmas tree in the evening watching TV with the entire family for almost 4 months

Yeah, once you have kids, you realize the magic of Xmas trumps any other potential issues one might have with it.

Kids don't think about all the issues of "free toys, stranger danger, weirdo in my house, lapsitting on an older dude".

For them Christmas is pure magic. I would never take this away from my Kids. My eldest knows the truth, he still loves pretending and making my youngest kids believe.

Sometimes the magic of a situation is much more important than the "educational value". You won't traumatize your kids by having santa come and have the best morning of their entire year....

I really hope you're right. I'll believe you on Jan 6 2025(?)when you swear in your next president

Hope y'all end up with someone a bit younger than Biden though. While I have no issue with his presidency, I do have an issue with his age. Ppl above 75 (or even 65, or whatever the local retirement age is) should not be in politics anywhere imo.
