They say that the super book smart are a little out of touch with reality. My uncle and dad worked for NASA. They had a coworker that clipped their toenails, kept them, and munched on them like a snack. Someone also dumped in the stairwell.
I work with a guy who used to work for NASA. He makes sure to state that he’s a mathematician regularly.
I believe he referred to the confederates loss in the Civil War a “shame”, and I don’t believe has ever spoken negatively about Nazis. He really really wants to get mad at me, and then I show him that Trump is on Epstein’s list and loudly proclaim exactly what it means - Trump raped kids.
Seeing the hamsters get ground into mincemeat in his brain was interesting. I’m sure he’s already purged it, or it’s fake news, or whatever.
Yeah, actually seems like a fair bit of the people that build things for NASA live in the Deep South. And plenty of them I’m sure come up rooting for the wrong side of the Mason Dixon.
Alabama and Florida are where most of NASA is based. There’s also JPL in California, but the rockets are usually assembled in Huntsville, Alabama and, of course, take off from Cape Kennedy in Florida.
I mean, the Congresscritter is a fascist who supported DeSantis before bending the knee to Trump. As a former doctor and Marine, who had seen first hand the problems with the American medical system in general, the government response to Covid, the VA’s treatment of his supposed fellow veterans, etc.
Well, it’s too late now, but if you ever see eye protection that says “NASA approved“ it’s definitely lying (NASA doesn’t certify commercial items) and probably not protective.
