Integrity called down describing the view they just got out two windows seeing the Moon in one, and Earth, about a quarter the size of the moon, out another window. Houston responded with "Amaze. Amaze. Amaze." Hope Andy Weir was listening.
Screen grab of the inside of the Orion space capsule Integrity showing a jar of Nutella weightlessly floating by with astronauts in the background.
Did anybody else catch this cameo about 248,000 miles from Earth?
The “they’re too old now” argument was strong (sorry!) but an animated series is intriguing! www.instagram.com/reel/DV6Js56...
Crazy idea- maybe we could ease the concerns about the world’s oil supply if we were heavily investing in alternative, renewable energy sources right here in the US. Surely a president who wants America not to rely on other countries for anything would support that, right? Right?
He’s a lumberjack, and he’s okay. He works all night and he howls all day…
Might be that one of those Canadian wolf birds takes it. Better invade to get it back.
Come see “On Tuesday” at The Burren! But not on Tuesday! Show is Saturday, April 4th, 2pm. tickets.24hourmusic.com/eventperform...
A screenshot of text reading: The internal memo also said the "political tumult" in the United States was good timing for the feature's release. NYT quoting from the document out of Meta's Reality Labs: "We will launch during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns."
How would you like your location reported to Meta/Facebook whenever somebody wearing their glasses sees you (without your consent)? Well if Meta decides to roll out their “Name Tag” feature, this future could be yours! Do they know how skeevy this is? You bet!
I’m sure you know this, people of #Denmark, but the guy in charge doesn’t speak for all of us. We respect you, we honor your self-determination, and speaking personally, I had a lovely time when I visited the beautiful city of Copenhagen years ago.
However you view the government shutdown, POTUS has the power to alleviate suffering of families who cannot afford to eat, and he chose not to. He chose cruelty. And the partial funding of SNAP that is there is only because a court ordered it.
“Silence will certainly save us. Authoritarianism is like measles: Ignore it and it will go away. I have this guidance straight from Secretary Kennedy.”
Sure, it takes a process of billions of years that spans the cosmos for the nuclear fusion process inside stars to create the preponderance of elements we have today. But what if we light some on fire and blow them up? That'd be cool!
So folks in the US worry about what chips made in China might secretly do since the Chinese government has sway over the chip makers. Now, a US government that is leaning heavily fascist is taking a stake in Intel. Do you trust it not to put spyware in to monitor, say, your speech? I know I don’t.
Next Arlington Astronomy Night is Saturday (August 2nd) - we'll be looking at the Moon! Now there's a Facebook event for it. Wow! www.facebook.com/share/1AuyhU...
From one father who wasn’t sure he’d ever be one to another, happy Father’s Day! And likewise to those who haven’t been as lucky, I haven’t forgotten how that feels.
There’s nothing they won’t stoop to
I have this strange desire to go to Montreal and eat here… can’t really say why…
I have been sick for a week and I just read about "something going around" in a subreddit, which I guess is how I get my information now that the CDC is officially spending the next four years determining when and how microscopes became gay.
I hear trump is going to the Vatican this weekend. Well, I can finally think of one felon/rapist who actually should not be allowed back into the country.
Seems like trying to check out is still crashing though.
Hope you had a lovely day!

When you hear stories about people being detained for “reasons”, these are not isolated events. This is a pattern and it is happening over and over. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025.... Who will be next? You? Me?
I’m impressed by his honesty about his first term: “Unfortunately in recent years, a corrupt group of hacks and radicals within the ranks of the American government obliterated the trust and good will built up over generations,” Mr. Trump told an audience of supporters and law enforcement officials.
How do you clasp shut an Eelfinn bracelet? Iron to bind!
Happy Purim to those who celebrate…
My apologies to the rest of North America (and everywhere else too). It’s small comfort that a lot of us are strongly opposed to what is happening given that as a nation we voted for this imbecile. But a lot of us didn’t. 🇨🇦 🇺🇦
