Am currently watching Episode 2 of STD. And it may not be canon to TOS, but maybe canon to the reboot movie?

But it is fun, so far.

So far, i am interested. So far, STD is.... fascinating.

Internet patriots! Are you as tired as I am of the very shameful display of disloyalty that the NFL has become? This has nothing to do with race or anything else. The issue of NFL kneeling has nothing to do with race. It has to do with respect for our country, our anthem, and our flag. Major League Baseball has a better moral character, a deeper concern for mankind, and a spirit of charity. It's alternative sports, without all the Black Identity Extremists, the BIE. And for the first time ever, the World Series is coming to the Internet, on YouTube TV. Tune in to Fox or YouTube TV on Tuesday, October 24, 2017 at 8:09 p.m. Eastern for game 1, the Houston Astros going up against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers used to play in my home town, in New York City. I was the best baseball player in New York when I was young. Said to be the best baseball player in the state of New York. Ask coach Ted Dobias. He said I'm the best he ever coached. I always knew I was good. I was always good at it. I was always the best athlete. Always the best player. Not only baseball, but every other sport too. Everybody wanted me to be a baseball player. But I also knew that it was very limited, because in those days you couldn't even make a lot of money playing baseball. But I was good at other things too. I was good at wrestling. I was really good at football. I was always good at sports. I was always the best at sports. So I know what I'm talking about when I tell you, it's going to be great. Tune in to the World Series. And tune out the NFL. Switch to baseball, and our country will win. We’re going to win. We’re going to win so much, you’re going to be so sick and tired of winning, you’re going to come to me and go "Please, please, we can’t win any more." You’ve heard this one. You’ll say "Please, Mr. President, we beg you sir, we don’t want to win any more. It’s too much. It’s not fair to everybody else." And I’m going to say "I’m sorry, but we’re going to keep winning, winning, winning." Let's Make America Great Again! 🇺🇸

The failing @NFL has decided that it will not force players to stand for the playing of our National Anthem. Total disrespect for our great country! If you stand for our Flag, Anthem and Country, sign my petition. www.gop.com/stand-for-anthem-petition 🇺🇸

The strangest dream that i can remember that woke me up laughing went like this:

I took a glass and filled it with water
I took a tampon by the string and dipped it in the water, then dipped it in cocaine.
Then i dipped the tampon into the water.

In my dream i said, "I've invented coca-cola!" and started laughing. Woke up laughing and had a great day after that.

I need a few more dreams like that, i tell you what!

It's October 19. Big and historic day -- and big week -- ahead for our stock markets! Stocks going 📈up tremendously! A bull market the likes of which this world has never seen. Blowing through many, many milestones. Great, great things happening on #WallStreet. Get ready for the Dow to go to 24,000 and more!💸 #Dow24K#MAGA pic.twitter.com/GQ5f2eVvEI 🇺🇸

There's a big rally coming up for white folks and select supporters & allies. It's TODAY, Thursday the 19th at the Phillips Center for Performing Arts, on the University of Florida campus. 3201 Hull Road in Gainesville. @RichardBSpencer, President of the National Policy Institute, CEO of Washington Summit Publishers and founder of Alternative Right, will be speaking. http://www.alligator.org/news/article_e86f4a88-b2b6-11e7-8c07-3fce95cf484b.html

@ThatEliMosley, Leader of Identity Evropa and Mike Enoch of The Right Stuff and The Daily Shoah will also be speaking.

You'll need a ticket to get in. Unfortunately there are plans by "anti-fascists/anti-racists/liberals/social democrats" to sabotage. A lot of liberal bars said they would trade free beer for tickets, and give those tickets to very bad and disruptive people. So the tickets will be given out outside the Phillips Center, around 1:00-1:30 on the day of the event. The National Policy Institute wants this to be a safe space for white people. Meaning it's going to be selective so the tickets only go to white and white-supportive people. @CameronVPadgett (a young man who is a student) explains it in a video. pic.twitter.com/PNCSDRl5eo

Governor Rick Scott made a very smart move. He declared a state of emergency. Trust me, it isn't an emergency. It's so rules & regulations won't apply, so we can have law & order. Like Cameron says, it's "just a formality." So law enforcement can stop any sabotage.

"The emergency declaration — requested by Alachua County Sheriff Sadie Darnell — allows state agencies to suspend rules and regulations, the Tampa Bay Times reported. Scott also activated gubernatorial authority to spend surplus money when he deems it necessary." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2017/10/16/state-emergency-declared-in-florida-county-ahead-richard-spencer-speech.html

"Okay so basically: this means the cops are going to be allowed to do whatever they want." https://dailystormer.ai/wat-florida-governor-declares-state-of-emergency-five-days-ahead-of-richard-spencer-event/

This is a reminder for me (or you) to check back in a week, assuming it is overshadowed by other news:

The JFK Document Dump Could Be a Fiasco

Trump, no stranger to conspiracy theories, including totally unsubstantiated theories about a link between Ted Cruz’s father and JFK’s death, has not yet revealed his plans for the documents. His friend and political adviser Roger Stone, the Republican consultant who is the author of a book claiming that President Lyndon Johnson was the mastermind of the Kennedy assassination, said last week that he has been informed authoritatively that the CIA is urging Trump to delay the release of some of the JFK documents for another 25 years. “They must reflect badly on the CIA even though virtually everyone involved is long dead,” Stone said in a statement on his website.

The CIA has not confirmed or denied reports that it has appealed to Trump to block the release of some of the files on grounds that the documents might still somehow endanger national security if made public. In a cryptic statement last week, the spy agency said only that it “continues to engage in the process to determine the appropriate next steps with respect to any previously unreleased CIA information.”

As it stands now, the document release this month will be a logistical nightmare, with the public suddenly flooded with a huge online library of documents—tens of thousands in total—that will be, at first, mostly incomprehensible even to experienced students of the assassination. The National Archives, abandoning its plans to release the documents in batches over the course of several months, said this week that it will instead release everything at once—all on the same day—sometime between now and the deadline on October 26.

I'd sub but it's pre-news again.

Big, big win against ISIS today! My guys conquered Raqqa, the capital of ISIS. And killed the White Widow, a MAJOR British terrorist who was on my kill list. Killed Sally Jones, I call her the White Widow. "Zapped" her while she was fleeing from Raqqa. A huge, huge victory. Which you can read about from Fox News. But the Dem #MSM doesn't want you to hear about it. Fiction writers at @NBCNews, @CBSNews, @ABC and @CNN won't tell you. And Dems running Internet sites don't want you to know.
