Where are y'all streaming #IFT11? I like ErryDayAstro's videos but I just want callouts + discussion/commentary like the old SpaceX streams without his screaming.

Get rid of the fascist in your head and live like a citizen of a free country.

Billionaires aren't the reason rent is so expensive and you need a $30k car just to function in society. They're not the reason there is poverty. Is much closer to home than that

It's amazing how hard it is for people to understand that it is $/acre instead of just total $ that is important.
