Only slightly offtopic. Uploaded GIFs that loop once and stop are turned into loop forever images. Can we find a workaround? #Mastodon
@davidaugust I only recently found out that my husband of 12 years didn't realize that I constantly quote this episode (or, if we're being honest, the Orbital song based on this episode).
I guess I don't sound like Michael Dorn.
You mean we could have seen this meme a dozen times before?
A dozen, a hundred? It's impossible to tell.
@davidaugust There is the theory of the MΓΆbius: a twist in the fabric of space where time becomes a loop.
Time becomes a loop.
Time becomes a loop.
Time becomes a loop.
Time becomes a loop.
Damn it, whereβd I put that Orbital CD?
@davidaugust Doctor Who did it in 1980, but it was long enough that this Tumblr post had to break it into ten five-second GIFs!

@yesterzine @davidaugust
Is that perhaps a Red Dwarf reference?
Iβve only seen bits and pieces of it, although Iβve always wanted to watch it in full.
Come to think of it, I want to rewatch Blakeβs 7 as well as I remember being traumatised by the finale as a child. π

But its not a .GIF, its an .mp4!
@davidaugust
so its is sort-a like whats happening in the #USA right now.
#conservatives took over in 1980-1992, huge #economic mess.
#liberals cleaned it up in the 1992-2000
conservatives took over in 2000-2008, huge eco mess.
liberals cleaned it up 2008-2016
conservatives took over in 2016-2020, messed it up again
liberals cleaned up some of it 2020-2024
now conservatives are messing it up again by destroying the actual systems that we use, #healthCare, #education #environment.
Being trapped in a GIF is pure Rick Sanchez
