These are hard times, and more are coming. And I don’t exactly remember the quote, but it’s along the lines of:

“When a run-away team of horses is headed off a cliff, the driver can sometime be seen encouraging them on, presumably, since he knows he cannot stop them, he at least feels some sense of control over the situation.”

I hope you’ve made it out of russia, things are getting nuts there. I wouldn’t even be in georgia now if I was you.

Best turrets in space, gotta give them that.

Given the ballooning costs of the program, a helium leak is fitting.

Hope everyone was okay, the article doesn’t talk about injuries.

Suck it, earth!

Real estate agents love the homeless.

I was shopping printers earlier, and reddit-based results had clear paid comments.

Next week we find out russia has their missile cpu problem “mysteriously solved”

Are you telling me The AntiCommie Paratrooper Death Squad isn’t real?

That’s horrible… what can I do to help them get off facebook?

Batteries and salt water mix poorly, so I’m concerned about that aspect for crew safety. I would actually be glad if they limited battery size, hoping to augment with solar, to reduce that hazzard.

I bet that cargo ship can only kill two, maybe 3 pedestrians on a good day. 250 american pickups could do that in an afternoon.
