I was inquired of my sports-treasures collections IQ in my Homeland-Jersey station/haven, a suburbia town of symbolism (Echelon), where the inquirer, a cyber-communicator who hacked into my secret e-portal(s), claiming s/he was some Martian spy of Earth-realm civilization, casting me of all people, as a capitalism-race arms diplomat of my Selfie-age of fanfare/lifestyle linked social activity for the Ego (damn).

ALIEN: You've a special Detroit-city QB-trophy item (football card) of value(s).

ME: Are you making me some diplomat for sports-culture luxury for the Ego?

ALIEN: Are you denying your Thanksgiving-TV football culture is a vanity?

ME: You claim you're a hiding/spying Martian inquiring of my Earth-world.

ALIEN: In deeds I am, Earth-prince; and I'm the stuff of your sci-fi cinema image!

ME: Well, my Lions-QB rookie-football card of Lombardi-premonition is good IQ.

ALIEN: We shall see...for that entails the width of my examination here/now.

ME: Facebook-like?

Friends, there I was, in my suburbia haven-pocket, thinking (fondly now!) of my Thanskgiving-TV culture Detroit-city QB-card of Super Bowl premonitions value for social media/activity and superstitions of the capitalism-race variety for education/class; and this alien was inquiring of all my world's thermals in Earth-realm (damn).

ALIEN: Are you a subscriber of some world-cable/digital/net provider company?
ME: Of course...I'm a typical Western (American Homeland) citizen-resident.

ALIEN: Patriot.

ME: Of course, alien; but I'm doubting your Martian stance/origin/position now!

ALIEN: I assure you my inquiry concerns capitalism-race image sovereignty for IQ.

ME: With an implication for invasion intent for terrorism/colonialism hype, eh?

ALIEN: Of course, Earth-prince.

ME: Well, this football-QB (rookie!) card has Super Bowl premonitions value, ok.

ALIEN: It's a reflection of a Thanksgiving-TV football culture hospitality town.

ME: Detroit's featured annually in a Thanksgiving football image for record.

ALIEN: American charm?

ME: Earthling magnet, mystery-inquirer (ha).

The alien ran down his/her special list of Earthling society trend and capitalism-race arms linked troubles of the heart and worries of our species, including 9/11 and the Coronavirus, 21st-Century 'troubles' of the Ego and the consciousness (ok). I explained my Echelon-haven of sports-fanfare comment and lifestyle reflecting the luxury-happiness of the cool possession of my Thanksgiving-TV football culture 'trophy' item, my Detroit-city QB-rookie card of great immortal hospitality value, certainly cleared my human species of any invasion/colonialism threat to the spirit(s). Well, the alien conceded I held this football card possession in my brain as a special conscious illusion of the finery of sportsmanship and social media commentary for competition jam (hmmm). I promised the mystery-inquirer that I'd cast the Thanksgiving-town football trophy image, my Detroit rookie-QB sports trade-card of Lombardi-premonitions adjective in the West, in a special superstitions tale of how possession can yield a shadow-line for medicine for Earthling woes of the destroyer variety. I pleased the alien and afforded my capitalism society a special thermal cinema for leave (for leviathan/uncertainty).
