These are my people.

You had me at "The Eurythmics".

Beautiful kitty!

Personal opinion: Reading this thread should constitute partial completion of annual training for those in the IC (especially NSA).

"Some people characterize this as a backdoor to surveil Person B."
That's called "reverse targetting", & is explicitly illegal.

A white garment with some kind of food stain. Humiliating.

A pair of dirty hands rest on a car engine. Rough, tough, cool.

Here is an easy solution:

Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves.

Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled.

Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.

Okay, I have to ask: Do you mean "lift" as in "shoes with high heels", "the Uber alternative (Lyft)", or "the British term for elevator"? 🤔

Rice pilaf. Never cheat yourself.

About halfway through the "saveitforparts" guy video on trying to listen to #Artemis comms, he thanks many groups and people.
Except for the flat earthers. "Some folks should not be allowed on the internet."
This guy is my new favorite! LOL!

Oh, F*#! NO!

Watching a video by the "saveitforparts" guy. He's talking about using a castoff dish and homebrew antenna to listen in on Artemis.
Then he apologizes for calling it "Inspiration", not "Integrity".

Dude, you are not wrong when you call it "Inspiration".

Like, at all.

Antonov An-124 Ruslan - Wikipedia

It's a F-35 with the undercarriage of an An-124 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonov...)
As God intended.

Artemis's distance was changing pretty slowly for a couple of hours around apogee, during which the ISS was whizzing around the Earth. It turns out that 43 min earlier at 2221 UTC Apr 6, when ISS was passing over Kansas City, the ISS crew and the Artemis 2 crew were a record 419578 km apart.

There's an old Russian saying from Soviet times, stating, "There's no izvestia in Pravda, and no pravda in Izvestia." In Russian, "izvestia" means "news" and "pravda" means "truth". Both were the names of major Soviet "news" publications.
The same can be said of "Truth Social".

"Woke from a dream"? Or just finished a session of GTA?

Zoomed in picture of a tree trunk above head height. A squirrel, clinging to the tree, is staring at the camera.

Here's a sciuridae with a face that says, "You looking at me?"

It was for this reason that I used to hammer into my students, "All RF is FM" (where "FM" = "f***ing magic").

Buddy just texted, "3 dudes with selfie sticks circling the capsule and calling it a 'hazard assessment.'" #Integrity

Seems unnecessary to wait for direct communication to be established between Integrity crew and rescue crew, if it's not working properly. Just knock.

Even a FRS just tucked away, if it's possible.

Me right now reading everyone's reactions to #Integrity, "YOU get a like! And YOU get a like! EVERYONE GETS A LIKE!"

The image of Wiseman and Glover sitting next to each other is great because, fairly regularly, you see the two of them doing fist bumps.

Image of two seated astronauts from the perspective of a camera above their heads and in between them. The top of the screen shows three computer screens. Each screen is surrounded by buttons.

Just like the "p" in "pool". (Stolen from Benny Hill, who followed this with, "Think about it...")

CORRECTION: They're NOT touchscreens, just screens.
Still, pretty much everyone can STILL relate.

Both Reid Wiseman and Victor Glover are using their shirtsleeves to clean off the touchscreens in #Integrity.
I think pretty much everyone can relate.

My favorite lunar landing conspiracy theory is that NASA hired Stanley Kubrick to film it, but he insisted in filming on location.

I'm gonna throw in a big "Thank you!" to both Spain and Australia for hosting two of NASA's three Deep Space Network sites. This is the first time in 50+ years that that network has tracked crewed missions, and they pulled it off flawlessly!
