I'm surprised Ron Johnson wasn't chosen. I hope Nancy kicks gym sock to the curb. Do not want to listen to him scream during these hearings about something completely unrelated

I am a space/Star Trek nerd and am generally really stoked about missions in space, but this billionaire space race in the middle of a pandemic and with all the social issues we have is really fucking annoying.

Sorry Sean. Too little, too late. Reminds me of the robber barons trying to assauge their guilt by building libraries, hospitals, and universities.

Bezo's rocket looks like a dick. How appropriate.

Bezos and crew returned safely. I've always been a strong advocate of the space program, so for me all endeavors are exciting and a step into the future.

I’m ignoring the news for now because it’s been nothing but the billionaire space race

I just can’t get behind the billionaires’ space penis measuring contest. Especially since people like Bezos don’t want to pay their employees livable wages or even livable working conditions.

They Daily Show had a meme that said Bezos was in space for 5 minutes, which is the amount of breaktime his employees get for a 16 hour day.
so yeah.

I can't get it up to be excited about rich guys going to space. We have the technology to get to space. They aren't actually breaking any new ground here aside from playing astronaut.
It still won't be accessible to regular folks. Not to mention regular folks are starving to death in our own country while the news pundits celebrate egregious displays of wealth.

As if billionaires needed a reason to look even more out of touch with the rest of the world. The space stuff is disgusting to me.

Pretty sure those taxes alone could house the entire house less population in the US. Assholes. So many jumbled words about this and I mainly want to throw things or cry. I would LOVE to be able to design & build affordable homes - basically I want to be my own Habitat for Humanity, amongst a whole host of other things, because of previously discussed mid-life crisis.

Tom Brady can take a long walk off a short pier, but I enjoy thinking about DJT watching that clip.
