It’s only been occupied for a few years vs ISS which is pushing thirty. It’ll look messy soon enough.

guy said, β€œDo you like Marx?”

I said, β€œI haven’t met him.”

Guy said, β€œNo, no, he’s dead.”

β€œWow, what happened?”

β€œNo, no, he died long ago.”

I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, β€œWhy are you asking me if he died long ago?” 

β€œNo, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.” 

I said, β€œSounds amazing.”

I’m giving you a sense of how naΓ―ve I was. After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx.

BS: The FBI.

MM: The FBI. Then, of course, I took a class on Marx. Couldn’t just get Marx out of the library. But,

YouTube video by Technology Connections I was right about dishwasher pods, and now I can prove it

Folks, I have a new video today where I'm very excited to announce a new dishwasher powder on the market.

Why am I so excited? Because it's vindicated every single one of my detergent opinions.

A confidential manifesto lays out a billionaire's sweeping new vision for NASA The former, and possibly future, nominee for the space agency said he did not intend for the document’s public release.

I remember all of the hype around Isaacman being the one who would "save NASA" at the time.

Turns out his plan was the plan put forward by the Trump admin OMB

You know, the one that was designed around absolutely gutting NASA science and exploration programs?
