And here are some shots I took of SLS during its wet dress rehearsal earlier in 2022

On this day in 2022, after several attempts, Artemis I finally flew. I was fortunate enough to be able to see it from the lawn behind the Atlantis exhibit building at KSC. It was incredible

Thank you! Super happy to be back here

Yeah I moved to Broomfield last Dec. 3 years of Florida was enough.

One part of me is like oh pretty and the other part is oh god I hope my satellites are ok.

I've had both my Nikon D850 and my Hasselblad X2D 100 out tonight and with how good the shots were looking from my iphone, I can't wait to see how those other cameras turned out

Looking real good in Broomfield CO!

Every year on Veteran's Day, vets post badass pictures of themselves doing badass things. I was not a badass, I was a Air Force space nerd. So here's a picture of me with a hula hoop singing Rebecca Black's Friday while attending Airman Leadership school in 2011

I just started a rewatch of Stargate Universe and I had forgotten how much I had actually enjoyed this show. Too bad it didn't last longer. More Stargate of any kind would be great

I'm unreasonably excited by the fact that it includes Spot

Trump is going to be losing his absolute shit tonight on social media.

Love to see it.

100%

I have so much respect for the AFRC & NOAA folks doing the Hurricane Hunters mission. They're all insane, but what they do is so important.

You can't see it in this screen shot, but opening up the email gets you a bunch of angry emoji's and a couple of "fuck you"s for flavor.

Screenshot of spam mail with some verbal abuse thrown in

Watching the evolution of spam mail over the years has been interesting as new tactics have been attempted, but the latest trash I've been getting that basically amounts to verbal abuse is really weird.

It does my heart good to see the Yankees getting the shit kicked out of them.

Oh cool, I just read that SECDEF said they are going to loosen the ROE. So thats another thing. He wants to commit war crimes

Fuck every last one of these assholes.

Yes the military should have standards and yes members should adhere to those standards. But things like saying a shaving waiver or different PT standards for women than men makes our military less lethal is nonsense.

Oh and lets not forget Trump saying he wants to use US cities as training grounds for the military.

I suspect that this will do more to harm readiness. The military will become worse at performing its mission. Not better.

Everything I've heard of about the big DoD meeting today sounds like the exact kind of horseshit you would expect some dipshit Maj to say.

Breaking News: In a surprising turn of events it appears the military has been deployed to Portland, Maine.

The White House has released a statement from the President as follows:

“What the fuck do you mean there’s two of them? That’s stupid. You’re stupid.”

And now the orange draft dodger will be attending too.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm going to guess that the group of generals, admirals, and their senior enlisted advisors probably know a fuckton more about the "warrior ethos" than some mediocre O-4.

Yeah that's been kind of my vibe from them since my interactions with them.

I was interviewing for a job at Sierra once. Things looked promising but then they hit a hiring freeze and never got back to me. Starting to look to me like I may have dodged a bullet there.
