I see this more as a loss of support for Trump, just like the many Republican endorsements for Harris. It doesn’t change Stein’s chances either way, and who supports someone is more a sign of how that person leans, not the candidate.
What will be interesting (but again, inconsequential) is how Stein will treat this. Ignore? Simple thanks? A rally to try and pull more of those who would follow him? (I think some will see where I’m going there)
It was a long drawn out “both sides” comment.
I agree, although I wish we’d just say any US citizen. Trump is just a former President, he’s hardly special.
I’ve lately been watching some radio shows on the BBC, and it’s wild to see the same things happening over there. I don’t know if it’s just how modern society has become or if it spread from us or them, but take away the British accents and the names and policies, and it’s the same insanity. What the hell is wrong with people?
You got downvotes, but I get your point. We still have scars from Reaganomics and other crimes.
Always vote like your vote will make a difference. It might, especially local races. If we accidentally turn the election into a sweep by everyone voting, oh well.
Watching it was incredible, however not surprising. This is just an evolution of what SpaceX has gotten good at. They’re “just” changed the point where it stops, with less stress on the rocket and less parts to fail (the landing gear). I know there’s a lot of complexity behind it working, this isn’t downplaying the effort. It’s applauding how they’re slowly making reusable rockets common.
That’s not what I remember from Close Encounters, but it’s been a while and maybe saucer flying regulations have changed since then.
Depends on if they’re signalling to land or not. Do they have hazards on or are already on descent? Since the responsible thing as a driver is to avoid any conflicts where I can, I’d give way being an unusual event, just like I’d let someone cut across lanes to get to an exit. They’re at fault and the anomaly, but if I can keep from being part of an accident I’ll do it. Trying to be dominant on the roadways at all costs is what causes many of the accidents.
I’d just treat it as an aircraft that is making an emergency landing, and not try and hold my lane because I have the right of way. That won’t end well for anyone.
If Trump says the sky is blue, better look up and see for yourself.
From the perspective of a kid in the 70s, I thought for sure some level of space colonization, whether it be a Moon colony or O’Neill type settlements. Along with that would be moving industry into space to tap unlimited resources and allow the Earth to heal.
It always was. Sometimes that’s stronger than other times.
The polls and the media stories are tied. People will lose interest if it isn’t shown as a close race til the end. But the point you mean is valid - this shouldn’t even be a contest, and yet here we are once again, this time with historical evidence of a bad choice and many will repeat the actions anyway.
Will it actually be 50%? I doubt it, if there is large voter turnout and there isn’t various methods of tampering with votes. Hopefully the first will drown out the planned second, as they will try and cheat the system, as it’s the only thing they’ve got.

Thank you Jimmy Carter.
Trade Florida for North Carolina and She for He. Oh, hi, Mark! (Robinson)
Only he didn’t try to block it, he just didn’t bother voting because he doesn’t give a shit about his state’s people.
I see the problem, but I doubt many would. No easy fix, but you could go two directions. Replace the one wrong shape and rearrange them, or just replace one of the open circles with a solid and rearrange them to represent an eclipse (with solid on the outside, hollow in the middle.
I get how an astronomy fan would get annoyed. I’ve gotten gifts before that have had a slight inaccuracy to it, so small I didn’t even catch it the first time I saw it. And now I can’t unsee it. I still appreciated them though. And yes, I had in a few instances considered if I could fix the issue, but sometimes it’s better to just accept it as is. Nothing is perfect, after all.
Like your grandparents.
You know the many uplifting videos of past Presidents when something unusual happens in their gatherings? This is the antithesis of those, and shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone. He’s said as much before, he doesn’t care about people, and he definitely isn’t what Mr. Rogers would refer to as a “helper”.
