Shatner in space.
Great to see him in space.
28 million for 11 mins. Waste of money that could be better spent here on earth.

Go back to Russia, Trotsky!
But, no, having celebrities and billionaires do this shit takes all the shine off going into space.

Re: Shatner in space.
Well I could've bought a new house with that money. And spent much longer than 11 minutes living in it. I could've even thought about sending a little bit of it to a charity or something. Not too much because obviously charity begins at home.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 6:21amGo back to Russia, Trotsky!

Re: Shatner in space.
I heard that comment on the news as well and my first thought was how out of touch rich people are to think "everybody needs to do this". Quite a few people can't afford simple housing and food, a trip in to outer space is the last thing they really need to do.Low Down Low wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 7:59amShatner: "Everybody in the world needs to do this...

Re: Shatner in space.
I also read this in a news article. Touching that some peoples idea of fighting inequality consists of ensuring poor people also get to go to space and gawp at earth for 5 minutes before, presumably, returning to their lives of subsistence and toil:Sparky wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 9:21amI heard that comment on the news as well and my first thought was how out of touch rich people are to think "everybody needs to do this".

One nonprofit, called Space For Humanity, is trying to raise money to sponsor space trips for people from all over the world who might otherwise never be able to afford them.

Given Captain Kirk's proclivities, it's a nice reversal.

Re: Shatner in space.
I know I've posted this in here before, but for those who are maybe newer to the board:
My parents were in the furniture business. Shatner was in town with his now deceased wife (the one who “accidentally drowned”) for a horse show. They were staying at a hotel next to the store and ended up buying a bunch of furniture. When discussing logistics of shipping the furniture, my dad said “maybe we could beam it to you.”
THE SHAT WAS NOT AMUSED.

In case you've never heard/read it, Wil Wheaton's encounter with Shat is legendary: http://wilwheaton.net/2021/03/the-willi ... ner-story/JennyB wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 10:00amI know I've posted this in here before, but for those who are maybe newer to the board:

Wow, what a dick. I would love to have been a fly on the wall when Rodenberry read him the riot act. I love how everyone rallied around him. Nimoy would never have acted like that.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 10:03amIn case you've never heard/read it, Wil Wheaton's encounter with Shat is legendary: http://wilwheaton.net/2021/03/the-willi ... ner-story/JennyB wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 10:00amI know I've posted this in here before, but for those who are maybe newer to the board:

My understanding is that Jimmy Doohan was the only other dickhead that could rival Shatner.JennyB wrote: ↑14 Oct 2021, 10:17amWow, what a dick.
