SpaceX bounces back with a Starship test flight that ended on a buoyant note.
Huh! I was told this rocket would never work. Never. That’s what all the good liberals said.
And that’s what they also said about SpaceX’s other rockets nearly a decade-and-a-half ago. Not a great track record, really. The funny part about doing hard things is they often fail a lot in the initial phases.
Get out there and build shit. Ignore the posers, losers, doubters and haters. That’s all you can really do.
Lord, what a voice! Loved this.
This is great. It really nails the Phil Spector-esque “wall of sound.” It even has the appropriate key change in the last 1/4 of the song. So much fun.
I don’t like this song for itself much, but from a nostalgic perspective I do. It reminds me of Riot Grrrl and when feminism was actually good. That’s back when we were all attempting to have fun, before identitarian BS took over and before men were treated like default rapists 100% of the time.
The song has all of two chords and is very repetitive, but in its own way it’s still fun. Though I won’t listen to it again.

Why do people say they feel “betrayed” when they get laid off? What is going on their heads?
I’ve only ever seen my relationship with a company as a business one. I provide labor. They pay me. I try to do good work, be honest, and deliver what I promise but I have zero emotional attachment to my role or company. It’s merely a service I provide in exchange for money. In a sense, a company subscribes to me. When they cancel the subscription I am out.
No matter how hard I try, I can’t understand the emotional component. It’s a business relationship and should remain one.
Perhaps that’s why I do well day-trading and the like.
I beat second stage obesity, reversed my pre-diabetes, and lost 100 lb!
Damn, looks like a whole different person. Amazing how hot people can be when they eat healthily and aren’t fat.
I love how much the FA types will hate her. Good for her, though.

I could probably do this and I am extremely fit. Most people wouldn’t hurt themselves, but just would not be able to do it.
It’s not dangerous, just something that maybe 0.5% of the population could actually achieve.
