Not only that, now Homer Simpson's control room appears less sophisticated...

I have but a few favorite references; yet those cover a wide range of topics. My recall and imagination do the rest.

Apparently radiation does not go through white cotton fabric lol. that and lead underpants.
Seems to be a nuclear thing to wear white for everything, on the subs (maintenance) we had to wear white overalls, a white jacket, white overshoes and white cotton gloves. we looked like albino umperlumpers. I did find out that Rolls Royce dont have a sense of humour, they guy i was working with took a mouthful of welding purge gas and did the full Donald Duck thing. not even a flicker - me i was dying with laughter. Best job in the world, i never had so many bacon rolls in all my life. Before i offend the vegans i had better mention that they also do vegan bacon. Why anyone who hates the idea of meat in its entirity would want a substitute, beats me. The slice of bacon comes from cutting a slice off a lump of pork - the animal cruility bit. So then the sustitute would look like a butchered piece of meat, just saying.

The picture looks like it came from the set of the very first Star Trek, it must have been stored in area 51 with the stage set from the moon landing.

re: thread hack.
Think of it as a commercial, interactive TV.
The new-age concept humans are supposed to not consume meat, is partially an act of shaming, that others are less humane or sensitive. Not really any different than revisionists of history etc. Never has a good case for such thinking, like obliterating physical objects alters history, been presented. Or an argument forgetting history keeps events from recurring. Everyone can think of something that should never happen again.
Vegans.
When it comes up, I ask what type of teeth certain creatures have. A lion (carnivore) for example versus a hippo, or cow (herbivore). Lions are pointed and a few molars, the others are nearly all molars. So, what humans have; a combination, just like any omnivore.
At same time, one theory holds our varied blood types are based on diets consumed over the eons. So, for example central Africa was heavily game animals and little farming, much like native southwest America, where far northern latitudes had pellagic sources. Some how migration appears to have added particulars. A good part of DNA ancestry results seems to support that.
Now, back to our regular programming..........
