I’m actually reading an article about this. The earlier space suits were created for space walks for up to eight hours. The Bezos ship is more for 15 minute tourism.

Another reason to be disappointed in America’s past. Neil Armstrong’s spacesuit wasn’t very flattering.

We got new laundry machines in the building and you can use them with an app on your phone, and my mom got so confused. I recently went on Facebook and asked everyone if I’m going to turn into my mother if I don’t learn something about ChatGPT. I’ve never used it. I think they said yes.

“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.”

Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire” a list of everything that I idolized that eventually became a total mess: Woody Allen, OJ Simpson, J.K. Rowling, Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby, Breyer’s Ice Cream (they have to label it frozen dairy treat), Mel Gibson, Roseanne Barr, the Internet, the USA.

Yes, first term seemed more about appealing to lowest common denominator, more from Trump’s chaotic mind. This seems outlined by others.

Don’t want to fall into the conspiracy trap, but the more you read about Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and all these right wing fascist billionaires, what’s going on seems clearer. There’s a much more of an organized plan of destruction than Trump’s last presidency.

America, 2027. No jobs. No reputation. Measles killing thousands.

All 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 33 Senate seats will be up for grabs in 2026. It is essential that everyone, including Republicans who care about America, vote against MAGA.

Reporting to social media that I’m going to take a nap for a half hour, and then, when I wake up, I’m not going to think about the depressing state of this country for 24 hours and do something else.

It’s a weird when the Republicans are now basically agreeing with what far left groups with financial ties to Russia and China have been saying for years - that Ukraine and NATO are really the bad guys in opposing Putin. You should set up a dating site so you can meet each other over drinks.

Can’t run away from us too easily!

My mother and I collaborating on a photo a half hour after we heard an anti-vaxxer was the new health secretary. She has the flu but agreed anyway. She remembers life before vaccines, and thinks this is crazy.

We need a Constitutional amendment to make us the 11th province of Canada so they can run us.

I’m really the ideal person to do the beta because I’m both excited by it and slow to change. If I don’t understand it, half of the world won’t either.

I assume they are rushing it out because we are all pissed at Meta, but maybe they’re not sure what people want yet.

Those underage at the time are probably now running YouTube.

I think this is in flashes. But unclear.

It’s a bit confusing at the moment but yeah, it more seems like just a grabbing of all the photos on Bluesky. But it may be my incompetence than them.

Like I see your photo of the black veil, on flashes, even if you are not there yet. I think. So far, it just seems like a section of photos from Bluesky. Maybe they haven’t made it into a separate app yet.

I think so, so it’s a bit confusing right now. Because you’re not sure where you are posting.

I know in the scheme of things it’s not very important, but trying to follow friends on ten different platforms gets depressing.

Still unclear how it work, if separate from Bluesky. But I know it’s beta.

Testing flashes app, I think.

Operator, can I speak to the writers of the U.S. Constitution? I’ll hold. Thank you.

We used to watch the news every morning together. Now we can’t because it ruins our day.

I’ve never seen so many strangers in New York talking with each other since the blizzard of ‘96!

Roll call from around the country. What is the lowest price you can find for eggs in your local supermarket?

Queens: store brand: $8

I know people who voted for Trump because they don’t like Democrats. I know they aren’t cruel people, and I hope they will speak out to remind the administration that dehumanization of others is unacceptable. You don’t have to suck up to everything. Democrats never do that when their choice wins.

Maybe also never used alt/text because I’m such a small entity, I would have no idea if anyone in my circle needed it unless they told me.

Using alt-text for the first time, at someone’s suggestion. I never use it on Instagram because it takes away from the character limit.
