And now another completely random observation and my examination of my original-work code-pattern BECAUSE of this random observation

I'm checking in on the NASA page and I'm suddenly struck with a sense of relief, relief that I'm not the target of mindless-drones, those groupies that surround Elon Musk and other lameoids, such as that guy
You mindless-drones don't actually listen to what they say
And what they say is not their own words
They speak only the original ideas of others, claiming as their own, which they're incapable of producing on their own

"The Changing of the Guard"
Season 3 Episode 37
Aired Jun 01, 1962 on CBS
Quotes
Professor Fowler: They all come and go like ghosts. Faces, names, smiles, the funny things they said or the sad things, or the poignant ones. I gave them nothing. I gave them nothing at all. Poetry that left their minds the minute they themselves left. Aged slogans that were out of date when I taught them. quotations dear to me that were meaningless to them. I was a failure, Mrs. Landers, an abject, miserable failure. I walked from class to class an old relic, teaching by rote to unhearing ears, unwilling heads. I was an abject dismal failure--I moved nobody. I motivated nobody. I left no imprint on anybody. Now, where do you suppose I ever got the idea that I was accomplishing anything?
"Requiem For Methuselah" [ Star Trek ]
Original Airdate: 14 Feb, 1969
(from internet transcript)
SPOCK: We have discovered what he is, Captain.
FLINT: If you leave, the curious would follow, the foolish, the meddlers, the officials, the seekers. My privacy was my own. Its invasion be on your head.
SPOCK: We can remain silent.
FLINT: The disaster of intervention, Spock. I've known it. I will not risk it.
KIRK: Kirk to Enterprise.
(We see Flint press a button, and the Enterprise disappear from its orbit)
KIRK: Clear out of the area. Inform Starfleet Command. Enterprise? Scotty?
FLINT: They cannot answer, Captain.
(A model Enterprise appears on a table. Kirk peers in through the viewscreen to see everyone stationary)
KIRK: My crew.
FLINT: The test of power. You had no chance. It is time for you to join your crew.
KIRK: You'd wipe out four hundred lives? Why?
FLINT: I have seen a hundred billion fall. I know death better than any man. I have tossed enemies into his grasp. And I know mercy. Your crew is not dead, but suspended.
KIRK: Worse than dead! Restore them. Restore my ship!
FLINT: In time. A thousand, two thousand years. You will know the future, Captain Kirk.
MCCOY: You have been such men. You've known and created such beauty. You've watched your race evolve from cruelty and barbarism throughout your enormous life, and yet now you would do this to us?
