Running errands before going to work (at 2 pm because the Air Force hates me), and I get all the ingredients for Kenji Lopez-Alt's French Melt sandwich and his egg salad sandwich. Except eggs. Because I am smrat. Well, no egg salad today.

My base and the beginning of an underground base in #PlanetCrafter (Skeo moon). Not sure how useful the underground base is, but it's cool that the devs keep putting out free extras.

I liked how my skyway on Toxicity, so once that planet was done, I popped over to Prime and built something similar. 3x3 stack for the production zone, and then three rounded habs to act as the hub for the domes that will extend out for creating tree bark and other bio stuff.

I have now hit "Complete Terraformation" on four planets or moons in #PlanetCrafter and am beginning the final moon, Aqualis. Just for fun, I put together this little collage of the first four bases. As you can see, the "pave the canyon" project on Prime continues.
Four panels of alien worlds. Each shows a domed structure and other technology, as well as trees and some water.

The imaginary "organization" Antifa is collaborating with the even MORE imaginary homeless industrial complex to conduct some antifas and perform some homelesses. These people are deeply disturbed.
A post from Turning Point USA (TPUSA):
Watch chloeshow outlines how ANTIFA and the homeless industrial complex are working hand in hand during a roundtable event with President Trump and members of his cabinet at the White House.

"In many cases, the homeless industrial complex is running cover for ANTIFA. ANTIFA is benefitting from American tax dollars, and they're essentially being used as the muscle."

Among the problems with the anti-trans obsession among our current government (I'm in Texas, so amplified), is that most of the proscriptions they are trying to implement will also affect non-trans people. "No pronouns!" Good luck speaking like a human. (1/3)
