I think you’re confusing InSight with Curiosity, which as a rover can position itself to take advantage of Martian winds for cleaning itself.

That’s definitely the Returns suit, with some new armor above the symbol.

When I first saw this announcement, I just assumed that United will take delivery of their first Overture sometime around the year 20-never.

Interestingly enough, I’ve met colorblind people and have never asked them about traffic lights. I’ve asked them if they’re red/green, blue/yellow, or completely colorblind (I took a class on vision and perception in college so remember a tiny bit about colorblindness), but I think that tends to be where my questions…

Thanks! Very few things will set me off but goddamn that’s one I’ve been hearing for like 35 years and it’s really annoying.

I’m white and I don’t align with the patriarchy, so you are right that it’s not about me. Yet, misogyny is something all women must put up with and the idea that white women are just all about ’tears and victimhood’ plays right into the hands of the patriarchy and our misogynistic culture. So then it is about me,…

It was designed for a 23 month mission. It was designed to make sure it would make it 23 months. Not that it would absolutely run for 106+ months.

But seriously, why isn’t there a little brush attachment for that arm?

My thoughts as well. Why not just have a brush/wiper that can go around and clean it off? You would think that if your only power source relies on it being clean and you know you’re going to be stumbling around on a windy/dusty surface, that keeping it clean might be worth a couple of extra pounds. I am no big city…

Please don’t use that, it’s offensive to us actual color blind folks.  It’s fucking annoying to get asked that by like every single person who finds out that you’re color blind.

They probably did look at that but shedding weight on these things is a premium so the mechanism and parts for something like this along with the benefits it would provide were probably “weighed” against other parts of the lander.  

Shit like this has been going on a lot longer than Trump having a large effect on politics across the nation.

The DA should lose his job and his license. His position and directive does not allow for due process and full access to the court for those charged and represented by a particular attorney. That alone is cause for disbarment.

It’s like half preppy, half Bond henchman.

This. And of course, his colleague speaking out against racism is unprofessional. What a fucking joke.

Part of being a lawyer is setting aside your own opinions and feelings because each client has a right to vigorous representation whether you agree with them or not.

“It’s truly peak whiteness that ol’ boy did the exact thing that Raiford criticised him for doing as a response to his criticism.”

The patriarchy can only remain in control as long as women are pitted against each other. 

Someone named Sutton on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has a sloppy take on race that gets progressively worse the more she expounds on the subject? That has to be on the Bingo card somewhere.

At what point does this hatred of white women become like giving people a green light for misogyny (toward white women) though? I hate vapid, awful people, and I hate that too many white women are conditioned to be vapid and awful. Yet, too many people out there will delight at the opportunity to be the misogynists…
