Any new entrant to provide a human lunar landing system for Artemis would have to pull off a successful development effort within 5 years — a feat last accomplished for crewed spacecraft by project Gemini in 1965:

Death Star

A very offline cousin sent this to fam group chat. This story is breaking containment.

This "agreement" is an assault on California sovereignty. There are suggesting some UCLA pushback, but that UCLA was in any way NEGOTIATING here and not telling the Trump Administration to take a hike is shocking.

If you were a lawyer advising this, quit your job and never practice law again.

Wait, this agreement requires *UCLA* to pay A BILLION DOLLARS TO DONALD TRUMP???

(I mean, yes, technically the "United States" but it's the United States that's supposed to be paying UCLA with all the grants that Trump froze!!!)

F.D.A. Approves New Menopause Drug

The FDA has approved elinzanetant, a new drug for menopausal hot flashes and night sweats that may also help with menopause-related sleep problems. Significant news for patients who can't take estrogen; nonhormonal treatments have been very limited.

We can sell chunks of the ballroom like they did with the Berlin Wall back in 89.

Why Trump would be perfect for an honorary U-M doctoral degree Awarding Trump an honorary doctoral degree would be an opportunity to recognize the long way the University has walked in less than two years. U-M juniors may still remember times when the campus code...

@umich.edu faculty call for an honorary degree for Trump

and right on queue we move from trying to ratfuck Mamdani out of being elected to trying to sabotage his mayorship before it gets started

When dressing up as a Nazi for Halloween is even remotely acceptable then you know as a country we have lost the plot.

We can never normalize this:

President John F Kennedy in the Oval Office. He appears to be with some kids in Halloween costumes. He's sitting at his desk. There are green colored curtains behind him, as well as small model ships.

George HW Bush at his desk in the Oval office. There's a single paining on the wall and a bunch of family photos behind him.

President Reagan at his desk in the Oval Office. There are four paintings on the wall, a grandfather clock, and some dark wood chairs.

President Trump in the Oval Office. The wall is crowded with paintings in elaborate gilded frames and random gold things on the wall. The fireplace is full of gold ornaments.

we are witnessing a genuine decline in the taste of american elites

I assumed that second quote was satire, or at least a paraphrase. It’s not. The thug trash said that.

Looking forward to Trump's works being relegated to damnatio memoriae after he is gone.

All I want this Halloween is for the corpses of the Radical Republicans of the 19th Century to rise from their graves and cleanse this country.

The carceral state is generally brutal and evil in the way it treats the human beings it cages, but it’s fine to point out when there are bursts of unusually concentrated or vigorous evil and use it to get people to care.

Not by any means an expert on Canada, just fascinated by how other democracies work compared to us...

It's definitely nice to have Federal Supremacy, but also, isn't Canada a little different in Provinces in the Confederation having significant powers? E.g., immigration policy is partially the purview of Provinces, there can be interprovincial tariffs, and then there's that Notwithstanding Clause.

Amazing thread in which Grok confidently, repeatedly insists that a photo of the U.S. Capitol is actually a photo of Tren de Aragua members.

"Unmask," you say?

This is disturbing. The military should not be paid for by an undisclosed private donor.

>Trump says private donor gave $130 million to cover military pay during shutdown

ah but i was told the administration would be good on antitrust

When Trump hears what Ronald Reagan said about immigrants he’s going to have DOJ arrest him for mortgage fraud.

We’re going to need a shitload of quicklime

“Although I spent many of my formative years living in the White House, I always knew it wasn’t my house. It was my home, absolutely, but not my house. The White House belongs to the American people, and that’s why we call it the People’s House.” www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

A couple of weeks ago, Trump struggled with a broken umbrella as he boarded Air Force One.

Let me tell you how we got to this point — and the tragic downfall of the noble umbrella. 🧵

In case you think this is a joke

Elon Musk couldn’t figure out how to make a pop tart without hurting himself

The man underneath all these agents yells for "aire" dozens of times. "Sólo necesito aire" (I only need air), and what sounds to me like "muriendo" (dying), as the woman in the car screams "ayudame" (help me) over and over.

As long as you don’t use an auto pen, it’s okay to have no idea whom you’re pardoning.

Federal agents detain Little Village high school student, deploy tear gas in faceoff with protesters Feds wearing military-style camouflage gear and gas masks were seen tear-gassing and pepper-spraying protesters during the confrontation near a discount mall.

The Sun-Times is reporting Border Patrol took at least two teenage boys today when they hit Little Village, again.

One is said to be a 16-year old student, U.S. citizen, and student at Benito Juarez Community Academy.
