On this day in 1964, production began on the original pilot episode, "The Cage." Which makes this the 60th anniversary of Star Trek going woke.
ALT Majel Barrett as the first officer of the USS Enterprise, Leonard Nimoy as Mr. Spock, and...I don't know, Shermie from "Peanuts?"

On January 20, the Trump White House will advise all U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public water. Fluoride is an industrial waste associated with arthritis, bone fractures, bone cancer, IQ loss, neurodevelopmental disorders, and thyroid disease. President @realDonaldTrump and First Lady @MELANIATRUMP want to Make America Healthy Again. @michaelpconnett

Finally, the only chef cameo I want to see on The Bear S4 is J.K. Simmons' character from "Up in the Air."
