Welp, this is not good:

It would be extremely ironic if he Oscar Wilde’d himself because he thought there was nothing of value he could learn from a gay man.

In unfortunate news, one of the missions I work on, NASA TRACERS, is on the chopping block in the budget proposed by Trump and Vought.

A functional pair of sats that would just outright be shut off because the current federal government is anti science and anti exploration.

Fuuuucccckkkk yes.

Putting strict limits on the definition of treason and significant requirements for its proof was one of the smartest things the Founders did.

The WHCD is the most corrupt event in Washington, every year (including when Dems are in the White House).

That says something.

Any journalists who show-up for this event are saying they're ok with fascism.

Unless they all get up and walk out in unison.

This is just fucking gross.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

Excellent!

A pox on all Verstappens.

There have always been those from Baude.

Once again, President Trump is weaponizing the Justice Department in an attempt to sabotage our democratic process and turn it into his own personal agency to interfere in state elections. This request is as absurd as it is baseless.

Somewhere Bismarck is looking down in confusion as Germany projects power by sending 4,000 pensioners, 12 buffet stations and a TUI loyalty program through the Strait of Hormuz

Have always liked Brown.

Oof, this is disturbing and worth a read:

Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).

Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.

And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.

Remember this.

An official NASA portrait of astronaut Sunita Williams wearing a full white Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit. The bulky suit displays an American flag patch on the left shoulder, a mission patch on the right, and various controls on the chest pack; she holds the gold-visored helmet. With long dark hair framing her smiling face, she poses confidently in front of a large draped American flag against a cloudy Earth-toned backdrop, symbolizing American space exploration.

A color photograph of NASA astronaut Sunita Williams captured mid-stride running on a treadmill in zero gravity, secured by a white harness and bungee cords attached to her waist and shoulders. She wears a navy blue sleeveless top and shorts, athletic shoes, and gray socks, with her curly dark hair floating weightlessly. The busy ISS module around her features blue handrails, equipment racks, cables, monitors, and various floating items.

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams completed the #BostonMarathon in 2007 in 4:23:46 from the International Space Station while orbiting the Earth at ~17,500 mph. First person to run a marathon in space.

She qualified for Boston on Earth with a time of 3:29:57 in the Houston Marathon.

Doesn't this cut the other way? If the Justices are operating outside of political pressure because they have life time appointments, release of their memos shouldn't affect them. That's a reason for greater transparency, not less.

Yep!

This👇🏼. AOC is the only one stating it clearly and plainly. Do I have any faith that the American people will ever elect a woman president someday? No. I hope I’m proven wrong.

V'Ger is getting tired.
