Seems like a helluva Mars plan. I'm all for it.

My only addition is that we'd stop shipping the supplies and cut the comms once they're up there.

Impeachment with no possibility of conviction isn't productive. His previous 2 aquittals just made him bolder.

And if we make impeachment routine, they'll lose their meaning. We need to hold out for one that will stick, which probably means waiting until at least 2027. And that sucks. A lot.

He also announced in the meeting that they won't be facilitating the return of an illegally-extradited man despite the Supreme Court's unanimous order to do so.

The CollegeHumor skit this image is from is one of my all-time favorites. It was the first time I laughed my ass off regarding 9/11.

Sharpen the pencil and create a bunch of tiny shavings then put them in a pure O² environment. They'll light up real fast.

Tbe Apollo 1 fire spread so quickly because in a pure O² environment fucking velcro was super flammable.

I get it, I'm on Lemmy and religious people, vehicle owners, and anyone who didn't use Linux is bad on your eyes or whatever.

But if my free practice of my faith that doesn't interfere with my professional or social obligations offends you, you can go right ahead and fuck off because I'm allowed to be as offensive towards you as I want so long as I don't try to control your life.

This bullshit is why you assholes never achieve shit. If someone doesn't perfectly fit your ideals, you dismiss them when you should see that they're your ally on everything that actually matters.

If you decide that everyone is your enemy, you end up being correct.

My job is working in government. I also happen to be Christian.

But at church I'm not a government employee, and at work I'm not a Christian, because one has nothing to do with the other. Separation of church and state is good for both institutions.

JJ Abrams aimed the camera.

If it is, it's not my fault.

If it was, I didn't mean it.

If I did... You deserved it.

I dread calls at work more than anything in life.

Just send a fucking email.

Colby was a made-up story. The victim of this incident is a real, human person.

There goes all our bragging about humanity's physical superpower being endurance.

Yeah. At least Colby and the Jolly Ranchers didn't involve harassment of an innocent person.

Importantly, they replaced the lower Court's order to "effectuate" his return with "facilitate" and defined "facilitate" as to remove any barriers to his return on the US side.

So the ruling is actually "Don't prevent the government from which he was fleeing and that is now holding him prisoner in a labor camp from flying him back to the US for asylum."

Like 1986?

Because in the 90s population ads were REALLY bad. You'd open a page and 30 new windows would open up with ads, and closing each one caused 3 more to open, and you eventually just had to turn off the fucking computer.

And this was on dial-up, so they also destroyed your bandwidth.

That would make building a $2500 iPhone in the US even more difficult.

Because of the child laborers making 85 cents an hour?

Well at least there's not a fuckton of methane hydrates on the ocean floor that are now releasing a greenhouse gas 30 times more potent than CO2 refrom the ocean floor as the water gets warmer. And that isn't a self-feeding loop that means it's probably too late to save ourselves now.

Because that would be bad.

Name a job where interrupting a CEO's presentation in public wouldn't be a terminable offense. What employee handbook says "If you've exhausted all other internal channels and are unhappy with the company's direction, just call out the boss in front of thousands of people and there won't be consequences."

If your company is that evil and unsettling to change, you call them out and resign. Calling them out but still wanting to be paid is saying you're okay with taking blood money as long as you're saying it's bad.

I mean it's not like he went on Truth Social shortly before he announced the pause and told people it was a good time to buy stocks or anything... right?
