* Social Security arrived on time this month. Yay!
My ankle popped out on it's own randomly Friday night, which made everything harder. It seemed solid today, so we went out for starts and groceries. I used the riding tying at the supermarket, which is good, as I hadn't been home 5minutes before it popped out again, much worse this time, as every time I get it back in it pops out again, so the pain is much worse and everything is very much uphill both ways.
Sigh. Bodies are Hard.
The second, much larger bureaucracy packet came today, the one I was expecting. I simply wasn't up to it on top of everything tonight, so it is officially a Sunday problem.
I have the dentist early Thursday. I can likely combine tasks as far as delivery, even though they aren't the same part of town.
* Dispatches from the grocery store:
Mid-April, I went to the discount grocery store, and instead of the Chinese vegetarian pot stickers, they had Japanese and Korean ones. This is the first sign I really noticed.
5/3/25: There weren't any gaps on the shelves, but things were missing, and I don't just mean foreign made things, which started me playing a game where I tried to work out what ingredient led to the disappearance, from my best guess at what the thing was made of. Me: let's see, the three main ingredients of this should be US sourcable so, what seasoni- Oh right, ginger. Bet it's the ginger.

- 2.19: A Private Little War. CW: Lots of Rape in theis one
This one has a lot of noble savage tropes that have not aged well. Things that are unfortuneately still relevent: It's both about the ravages that introducing guns into societies that don't have them cause, and the way super powers wage proxy wars and the losers are always the innocent civilians in the places this happens.
Kirk gets snappish with the crew, and admits it's because he's worried about Spok, who was shot.
Kirk breaks Star Fleet orders to try to accertain if the Klingons broke the treaty and are medling, which, of course they are.
Kirk gets poisoned and they have to get help fro Kirk's local friends from 13 years ago. The friend's wife is a witch and also wants them to adopt guns and violence. She's using aphrodisac plants to control him, which is basically rape. They also darkened the actressess' skin and are doing a whole sexualize, exoticised racist trope. This is... also seriously problematic. Given fifty plus years of film deterioration, it's hard to tell if we're all the way into brownface territory, but if not they are edging close. Anyway, she spots McCoy using a phaser to heat rocks and understandably wants one.
The costuming in this one is extra bad even by Trek standards, distractingly so. I do not blame the costumers, but the budget.
Spocks doing the healing meditation thing; nurse Chapel holds his hand, not knowing he'll remember. Meanwhile, rapey seductress witch character heals Kirk with her powers and now she owns him.
So the Klingons are gradually ungrading the weapons and also encouraging bloodlust and the rape of captives. Charming. McCoy and Kirk find proof of interference.
Spock tells Chappel to hit him. She eventually gives in and doews to save his life. Scotty loses his shit and grabs her, but the Doctor shows up to slap him some more, so all's well there.
Kirk teaches the villagers to use guns. Mccoy loses his shit for understandable reasons. Really there are no good ethical options. In the arguement tyhey refrerence the wars in Vietnam without calling them that. The balance of power/proxy war bit here would have been completely clear to the first audience.
The Witch uses the aphrodesiac herbs on Kirk to rape him. His friend sees and consoders shooting, but doesn't. Because Kirk is drugged he doesn't respond fast enough to the venomous beast attack and has to use his phasor to save the witch.
She bops him on the head, steals the phasor, and tries to switch sides. They attempt a gang rape. The others show up to rescue her. The rapists kill the woman for "tricking" them. A fight ensues. The pacifist friend betrays his pricinples. Kirk orders a hundred flintlocks. The Klingons and the Feds have completely fucked up a planet's worth of cultures.

- 2.19: A Private Little War. CW: Lots of Rape in theis one
This one has a lot of noble savage tropes that have not aged well. Things that are unfortuneately still relevent: It's both about the ravages that introducing guns into societies that don't have them cause, and the way super powers wage proxy wars and the losers are always the innocent civilians in the places this happens.
Kirk gets snappish with the crew, and admits it's because he's worried about Spok, who was shot.
Kirk breaks Star Fleet orders to try to accertain if the Klingons broke the treaty and are medling, which, of course they are.
Kirk gets poisoned and they have to get help fro Kirk's local friends from 13 years ago. The friend's wife is a witch and also wants them to adopt guns and violence. She's using aphrodisac plants to control him, which is basically rape. They also darkened the actressess' skin and are doing a whole sexualize, exoticised racist trope. This is... also seriously problematic. Given fifty plus years of film deterioration, it's hard to tell if we're all the way into brownface territory, but if not they are edging close. Anyway, she spots McCoy using a phaser to heat rocks and understandably wants one.
The costuming in this one is extra bad even by Trek standards, distractingly so. I do not blame the costumers, but the budget.
Spocks doing the healing meditation thing; nurse Chapel holds his hand, not knowing he'll remember. Meanwhile, rapey seductress witch character heals Kirk with her powers and now she owns him.
So the Klingons are gradually ungrading the weapons and also encouraging bloodlust and the rape of captives. Charming. McCoy and Kirk find proof of interference.
Spock tells Chappel to hit him. She eventually gives in and doews to save his life. Scotty loses his shit and grabs her, but the Doctor shows up to slap him some more, so all's well there.
Kirk teaches the villagers to use guns. Mccoy loses his shit for understandable reasons. Really there are no good ethical options. In the arguement tyhey refrerence the wars in Vietnam without calling them that. The balance of power/proxy war bit here would have been completely clear to the first audience.
The Witch uses the aphrodesiac herbs on Kirk to rape him. His friend sees and consoders shooting, but doesn't. Because Kirk is drugged he doesn't respond fast enough to the venomous beast attack and has to use his phasor to save the witch.
She bops him on the head, steals the phasor, and tries to switch sides. They attempt a gang rape. The others show up to rescue her. The rapists kill the woman for "tricking" them. A fight ensues. The pacifist friend betrays his pricinples. Kirk orders a hundred flintlocks. The Klingons and the Feds have completely fucked up a planet's worth of cultures.
