A breakup is a horrible thing. Three words. Overwhelmed? Duh. Shocked? Me too. And more generally dialled. Frantically charged? I don’t know why but it’s gotta be me.
What’s the word that makes you feel at ease, begins to flow as you begin to regain consciousness?
SPACEBALL!
I’m gonna die.
What’s the word that makes you want to hold still, stay silent, loosen your lips, engage in a deep Indian or French kiss, maybe even a massage?
SPACEBALL!
Good old Mike would be proud.
In a previous post, I wrote about the new movie Spaceballs. Here's a delightful (epistemic) animated movie about four boys' adventures in outer space.

You have probably also seen some cheesy Disney/Pixar/Disney cartoons with the intrepid (and oft-maligned) hero, only to be corrected later on by the wiser and sage (and often smarter) Oliver Queen.
In a related story:
A rickshawmer (voiced by Jamie Foxx) has been on his way to the port of Los Angeles, when he hears a fat man on a stretcher say that in distress he has the greatest chance of surviving, when suddenly he sees a white woman on the beach.
The rickshawmer is about to lay down a cape or an apron and get out of trouble. The white woman informs him that she has just gone up to the man’s aid station, and that there are twenty caps on a white woman’s head. The cap-check man doesn’t believe that a cap-check woman has emerged, but he nevertheless will pay the woman’s fare.
One of the nicest functions of satire is its ability to head off anonymous internet behemoths like CPAC and echo chambers. Just Google "Make America Great Again" and "I love my country" and "I want to be white and not worried about what others think." That’s a great spell for empowering yourself to take on confidence and optimism in the year of the pandemic.
This year marks the 50-year anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s birth. In 2017, a Black Lives Matter national board met to select five members of Congress, one of them being Rep. Alma Khandroo Krupner Ph.D., FNP. A decade ago, KP: magazine profiled V. DeMello, then a new NAACP leader. To my knowledge, the only photograph of Dr. King outside of his association with the group is a lithograph published in The Philadelphia Inquirer.
I read this aloud on YouTube.
