If you're mad and find yourself yelling that you want someone launched into the Sun, take a moment, calm yourself, and remember that it takes a lot less Delta v to launch them out of the Solar System instead.
You can be mad, but that's no excuse to be inefficient with propellant.

Currently crying laughing at the fact that my gf just called James Gandolfini “Gandalf Mancini” thinking that was his actual name. I’m losing it.

Absolutely love this. I've read a lot of very clearly defensive work these past few years - like, "I can pick out exactly what Twitter thread this paragraph is responding to" kind of clear - and it's ruined so many books for me. Begging authors to stop writing to criticism.

The insouciance of people in charge of hiring or paying contractors is really galling sometimes.
I’m convinced that it comes down to them being employees who continue to collect their paychecks every two weeks whether they do their jobs or not.

I have not giggled or gasped at anything on the television in recent memory as much as I did at The Diplomat on Netflix.
