An analysis of Musk's Starship, suggesting huge flaws in its concept, design, and testing plan.

"The entire project is optimized to fleece as much money from the US taxpayer as possible, and as such, that is all it will ever do."

San Francisco GD 60 T-shirt ideas.

As tales of sky high ticket resales hit the media. As, whatever other BS is going on, and by BS I do not mean "Billy Strings", one ponders what would be a good T-shirt for this event.

"I am here for the shit show, the rest is gravy" comes to mind.

Or..

"Help us Uncle BoBo, even though you are dead, you are still our only hope"

Jesus.

The kids are all right.

I’m a huge Ren fan. This is such a fantastic vibe.

DOGE violated the law when it canceled grants authorized by Congress and awarded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. The Authors Guild is suing, and if your grant was canceled, you may be part of the class.

I firmly believe Garcia is dead. El Salvador has no incentive to keep him alive.

This is really bad.

I pray that I'm wrong and he is returned.

Sigh

@DemocracyMattersALot

What incentive does El Salvador to keep anyone sent to them alive?

They won't return him because they can't, I believe he has been executed.

It would be great to be wrong, Sigh

My uncle, who invests,
says don’t worry
the markets will recover,
he says we should all learn
from the pandemic:
the markets suffered
but the markets recovered,
and I suppose he is right,
but what I learned
from this pandemic
is that the markets recover
but many people never do.

Social Security retirement wiped out.
401(k) savings wiped out.

Ask again what they mean today and who they’re talking about when they say “Liberation Day”.

Today I join with >1900 members of the US National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine signing this letter, as individuals, decrying the assault on #science by the GOP and Trump administration.

The GOP aren't just destroying the parts of government that work for people, they're weaponizing what is left against law, order, and civil rights.
