56 years after the first human moon landing, every post about it draws hordes of deniers.
They think they’re smart and skeptical, but are in fact aggressively gullible, and dumber than the moon rocks astronauts collected.
It’s depressing to see, but I have to hope they are just a vocal minority.

And there you have it. President Biden's 'open border' is a lie. He just deported people without circus-like spectacle, masked thugs, defying court orders, or fascism.

Finally finished a long-term project. A French Medieval army in 28mm for use with DBA rules. Figs from Foundry, Perry, Essex, and Front Rank.

First new DBA army in a while. Late Spanish Medieval (1495-1503) in 15mm. This is the Spanish Army in Italy & other places following the reforms of Gonzola de Cordoba. Pike & heavy cavalry now fight in close order, with foot supported by swordsmen & arquebusiers, and mounted men at arms by light cav

In Tokyo, & possibly other cities, you can't buy a car unless you have a parking space within a few hundred metres of your home. Hence only 1 home in 3 has a car, & parking spaces are often really small.
So they design cities and transport systems where you do not need to own a car to survive.

This post is unfair to Herbert Hoover, who was dead wrong economically, but was a man of intelligence and integrity. Trump is neither and has no excuse for his economic sabotage.
