His abort videos are a lot of fun to watch, and this is the most extreme.

Everyone forgets that Picard was a rabble-rouser in his youth, nearly being killed in a fight over a bar game. A fight he almost won despite being outnumbered and without his saber....

One frustrating element of space history is how even well documented programs can have gaps in the record that result in erroneous entries that have been widely circulated. As an example of this, I would like to explore from the shuttle program "STA-096". 1/

There are times when I imagine a vacation doing nothing but digging into archives hunting down answers to specific questions about the shuttle program, because I know the common answers are wrong & the right answers are elusive.
This is funny if you know my day job.

Spent quite a while going through this thread and all the replies and I am once again not surprised that not a single person pointed out that if the Internet right-wingers really cared about winning wars, they'd look to the greatest general of the 21st century:

What exactly is it about internet right-wingers that make them ride so hard for countries that go 0-1 in wars.
Nazi Germany. Confederacy. Rhodesia.
I mean Mussolini at least beat Ethiopia. He had a .500 batting average, and it’s like that makes them all allergic to him.

I keep reading that ICE "deported" a two year old Citizen. I don't think that is the correct word. I think the proper word is EXILED. They EXILED A CITIZEN.
