tfw you’re at work and the Artemis 2 crew is coming right at ya #nasa
Photo taken through a glass door at NASA's Johnson Space Center, looking into a lobby beneath an 'External Relations' sign. The four Artemis 2 crewmembers, in blue NASA flight suits, walk toward the camera, passing a black sign reading 'Teague Auditorium & Lobby.' NASA meatball logos are visible on the glass doors behind them.

My concern is that it’s being rolled out too fast without proper training. They’re notoriously bad at math, but this isn’t being communicated effectively. People will use them assuming they’re no different than a calculator. This will introduce errors that additional errors will be built upon.

The Artemis II crew, wearing blue NASA flight suits, walk through the External Relations lobby entrance at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, passing beneath NASA logos on the glass doors.

Two-panel image. Top panel shows the Death Star firing a bright green laser beam at Alderaan, causing a fiery explosion in space against a red and black starfield. Bottom panel shows a scene from Star Wars: Tarkin stands beside Leia, who looks down anxiously, while Vader stands behind her. Overlaid text reads, “It’s ok. The DOW is over 50,000.”

Six days ago federal officers murdered a man in the streets of Minneapolis and we still don't know their identities. Is there any modern precedent for this?

Thimerosal is approved by the US FDA for use as a medical preservative and remains approved for use in medical therapeutics in the United States. To this day, no study has ever indicated any harm from this thimerosal use.

First, journalists who step one foot over the line are targeted. Then scrutiny fades—and power operates in the dark. The real question isn’t “Did Don Lemon trespass?” It’s: why is the government working this hard to handcuff reporters?

Well you recently pardoned a fuck ton of insurrectionists and then hired them as part of DHS - during a hiring freeze in the federal government - that you put into place - so I’m not sure why you seem to view that term as a negative here.

This happened today. I’m conflicted working for the government considering the government just shot a mom in the face. I get it’s two different agencies & when I started it was a different administration but the fact that this anniversary coincided with this fucking awful…just…awful…god awful thing…
A certificate from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration titled ‘Ten Year Service Award.’ The NASA seal appears at the top center. The certificate is presented to Holly [last name obscured] in recognition of faithful service to NASA and the U.S. government. A small boxed NASA lapel pin is displayed to the left of the certificate. The date reads November 16, 2025, and it is signed by the Acting Administrator of NASA

Elon Musk was always one of those men - for like 15 years - who I did not want to be alone with. I didn’t like him, I didn’t like his fanboys, it all made me uncomfortable and creeped me out & I couldn’t explain it. And everyone told me I was wrong or weird or whatever. Honestly…I wish I had been.

But personally for me the reason I have one - the MEDICAL reasons I have one, not just strictly for birth control (though that would be fine on its own) make it almost a necessity. It’s the only thing that’s regulated my very heavy cycle and the severe PMS along with it. It’s like magic-poof-gone!

We don’t know if IUD’s are covered That means before Jan 1, we need to get an appt w a doctor as an established patient for a procedure that’s 1) Covered 2) Legal That is the world women are living in. I’m not due for this appointment & IUD removal/insertion isn’t pleasant-it’s awkward & painful
