@astro_jaz I went through every moon name in the solar system when thinking about my new dog, and they all would make *terrible* pet names.
" Come, Epimetheus."
Yesterday, neighbor came over and offered me a pot of lemons. I accepted, absolutely! But somehow, for some fucking reason she got all bent out of shape when I complained about the attached leaves.
WTF? Should I accept her peddling her unwanted leaves?
@DHeartsurgeon It's so funny, I wake up every day miserable, tired and listless, but by the end of the day I'm engaged, spirited and contributing. Maybe schedule your surgeries in the afternoon???
I'm in a position completely immune from Trump, Biden, or Harris. Or Bush. I've a job delivering electricity...and regardless of my constituents' political affiliation, they're gonna want power. Good news is we're delivering IBR power going forward, same as Texas.
So looking forward to sending humans to destinations 4, 5, 60 generations out into space. They will be *required* to reproduce to get there and return. I don't think it's at all possible because of our genetics, but possible.
I think we're just an attempt. But we SHOULD TRY.
@CookieCat34@curiosityonx Although they probably didn't know the difference in distance between obelisks down to the inch, they probably did know it down to the hectometer if you forgive my unit mixing. From that, distance to sun can be determined.
@CookieCat34@curiosityonx I *think,* by being measured on the same day, the variation of speed around our elliptical orbit would be [nearly completely] eliminated by virtue of their differences in geography. Say on the same day the shadow at Station A is 24.56 inches and Station B is 24.37 inches. 2/
@astro_jaz F1 rocket engine display in New Mexico. I'm looking for a good resource that will explain every valve, lever, tube, Cannon plug and hose on this device!
@astro_jaz Sagan and Roddenberry both tried to provide a way via entertainment to address the largest human issues we ever experience. The 1960s and 70s shows and documentaries captured that, but boy are they dated!
@srecobo Test and record all women's human chorionic gonadotropin levels when they leave the state by, foot, auto, train or aeroplane, and if they return with non-detectable levels if they left with high levels, then they shall be charged by Idaho with de-facto murder.
@SundaeDivine@ericc56 Yep. We did just fine under Trump 1 as we did under Bush, and Obama, and Biden.
We wanted different, but most citizens didn't.
I'll go to work every day in 2026 and 2027, same as I did in every years past. All of us non-women will survive.
@jefferinc@astro_jaz I'm the end, you're correct. I did just as well living under Trump 1 and I did Biden and Obama and Bush. Trump 2 is only 1,457 days, we'll live fine, too. Even if I am thoroughly disappointed with all my fellow citizens.
@srecobo @jdabre11 @realScottMH This was my take on my recent visit to EL Paso and New Mexico. It was clear that US Mexicans were quite on board Trump.
@lanerichard75@VoteHarrisOut@ChairmanWhatley I've already forgotten them. Jon Schaffer, who admitted his guilt very early, was sentenced last week to probation.
Those who chose to face trial and lost, well, they faced trial. And lost. Did stupid fucking things without conceding.
