it's extra frustrating as well if they do the whole "oh we ruined Earth/our home planet so we have to build a ship to go somewhere else instead" schtick. unless Earth has been blown up by the death star or something, what's stopping you from just putting your habitats on Earth.

- the materials to build more habitats. small airless rocks are probably way more common than habitable planets anyway so you might not have to go as far and could have a shorter journey since there's way more options available.
(you can also just stay at home and build habitats there too)

i don't like it when sci-fi media has people spending years or decades living in a spaceship travelling to some faraway habitable planet that is supposedly the only place they can live on. you're clearly capable of living in a habitat for extended periods of time, why not instead go somewhere with -

point of clarity: "epstein class" is the new name for the entire ruling/billionaire class, it is not a subset of them. they are all complicit, and their class interests are entirely wrapped up in being able to own children that they can rape.

The response when progressive policies that help millions of people are proposed...
"How will you pay for it?"
The response when the richest 1% ask for tax cuts, or banks ask for bailouts, or defense contractors ask for more contracts...
"How much do you need?"
It doesn't have to be this way.

Anti-Trans Democrats Blown Out In North Carolina Primary Election
Anti-trans Democrat Nasif Majeed lost to Veleria Levy, who ran on a pro-LGBTQ+ platform. Other conservative Democrats lost as well on primary day.
1. In yesterday's primary elections, anti-transgender Democrats found out the hard way why you don't throw transgender people under the bus.
Two anti-trans dems lost their primaries, including one that cast the deciding veto override vote, in blowouts.

Itβs funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim βadult illustrationsβ is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They donβt have an answer.

2D digital illustration. On the left is a person with black hair tied into a ponytail wearing orange glasses, a brown t-shirtm, and black shorts. They're sat cross-legged with their head resting in their hands. They look disinterested. Behind them is a brain interface AR halo.
In the middle is a large ceramic pot decorated with many tiny blue/indigo five-pointed stars. In the pot is a bizarre bulbous greyish growth resembling small spherical blobs sprouting off of larger spheres, down into the pot. Long strands dangle from the smallest blobs.
On the right a gloved hand is holding one of these smaller blobs which has had a corner cut out of it, revealing its fairly featureless interior.
Bulb Coral (actually a type of fungus) is a medicinal GMO found throughout the Solar System, its main produce is one of the key ingredients in space osteoporosis medicine, which allows folks to spend long periods of time in zero or partial gravity without suffering irreversible skeletal damage.

Those on Luna also appreciate it for its visual similarity to their home's grey surface, while many Kuiper belt windrider cultures speak of the symbiotic relationship between a ship's crew feeding their leftover food and other organic waste to the Bulb Corals, who in return give them their medicine.

This artwork depicts crescent Jupiter and Ganymede, both featuring their auroras. On Ganymede (foreground), the auroras take shape of dim bands at ~30 degrees north and south glowing reddish from excited oxygen in its thin exosphere. On Jupiter (background), the auroras are close to the poles and are pink in colour, emitted by excited hydrogen. A minor moon, Amalthea, can be seen as a small yellowish dot located on Jupiter's disc.
Ganymede is the only moon in the Solar System with an intrinsic magnetic field. This produces auroral rings as diverted energetic particles interact with oxygen in its exosphere. Its parent planet, Jupiter, also has auroras.

PSA for Discord's new age verification!
If you get hit by it and refuse to give them any ID or face scans as you should, here's a way to just... bypass it.
Go to Settings - Family Centre and then just enter a date of birth that's 18+
It's really that simple. Give them nothing.

The ultraviolet aurorae on Ganymede, based on Junoβs close-up observations from 7th July 2021. As Juno flew by Ganymede at high speed, its UV spectrograph could only acquire narrow strips, combined here to display the overall shape of the aurora Image: NASA/JPL-Caltech/SwRI/UVS/ULiΓ¨ge/Gusbin/Bonfond

Nice glow up: Using data from NASA's Juno mission, scientists from the Laboratory of Atmospheric and Planetary Physics (LPAP) have observed fine details in the auroras on Jupiter's giant moon Ganymede for the first time. missionjuno.swri.edu/news/univers...

Doodle depicting a woman in some cramped spaceship interior in zero-g. She's drinking out of some pouch of liquid and is thinking to herself "This tea tastes like shit...". At the top is a date that reads "02/02/2656". To the left is some text that reads "Reading a paper she co-authored in that details more experimental proof in strong support of Persimmon-theory, which describes how general relativity and quantum field theory can be reconciled". Beneath is another panel depicting a long spindly spacecraft. Underneath this panel reads "A 2-month trip riding the solar wind at 500,000 m/s from Saturn to Uranus."
