A bill in Arkansas would ban gender affirming HAIRCUTS for transgender youth.
HAIRCUTS.
This is a straight up North Korea state sanctioned hairstyle proposed law for youth.
I've said a few times I don't think Musk is ever going to make it to Mars. It's always been more gut than technical knowledge, but the technical isn't refuting me yet.

A photo of the total lunar eclipse from March 2025 as viewed from the gooseโs acre, a bar in the Woodlands, Texas next to the LPC venue. To the right, you can see a small moon off in the distance, which is partially covered by a red shadow. The moon looms in a deep blue sky. To the left, you can see the brick faรงade at the front of the bar and the green sign that displays the name of the bar, the gooseโs acre, bistro and Irish pub.

America is deeply unprofitable, far away from breaking even and if outsiders stop lending us money, we will go bankrupt. So, in case you didn't know better, if you are still wishing DOGE to fail, you are wishing for America to default.
โAmerica is deeply unprofitableโ itโs a country not a B2B startup you fucking dweeb

Iโd probably be out of a job.
Successful ongoing missions would be turned off.
Future missions would be axed.
Some research centers (NASA & non-NASA) would likely dissolve.

What would Deimos look like to an astronaut in space around Mars? None of Hera's instruments are equivalent to the naked human eye, but here is the science team's first attempt. The 'saddle' between two peaks of Deimos shows up as a shadow

Hera, ESA's planetary defense spacecraft heading to the asteroid Dimorphos (the one DART smashed into), flew by Mars yesterday for a gravity assist and to test its cameras.
It took images of Mars and the moon Deimos up close.
AND THEY ARE AMAZING ๐คฉ
I'm unfortunately guilty of this ๐ญ
