Time for some more retro-futurist eye candy in lieu of intellectual content, because, well, I don’t want to leave it too long between posts here and I can’t at this particular moment in time think of anything intelligent to write.

Ah, right. Thanks. Often it’s impossible to track down where these pictures originate.
