Congratulations. Santa Claus will be by shortly to deliver your cookie.

“We home school on our dime, I don’t celebrate regular holidays and am self employed, so no, and I don’t use the medical care system and actually take care of my own body. So I will not thank any liberals thank you very much.”

So do the Amish. And yet the Amish manage to be devout without acting like holier-than-thou…

And for the privilege of making less money, research scientists now get to be called shills and liars and sell-outs and ‘fake news’ for their troubles. Glamorous AND profitable.

(astrophysicist-in-training, wondering why the hell I’m bothering bankrupting myself with student loan debt for an education when I could…

“The fatal flaw in this “release the hounds” move is that anyone offering a professional opinion is doing so on hearsay (i.e. what the press chooses to present), not on firsthand knowledge of the facts.”

Yeah, that’s part of the reason they banned the practice in the first place. Doctors in general aren’t supposed to…

“Again, I appreciate the author allowing for comment on his highly one sided opinion piece composed of typical media opinion based, fact deprived content.”

Oh. Okay. Let’s hear some fact-based content then. Fact: a closed investigation in-progress hasn’t released any evidence that meets your criteria as proof of…

And indeed some of us were demanding his tax returns precisely *because* we suspected there might be some shady Russia connections in there, given his campaign-long blowjob of Putin. This before the evidence of Russian-linked hacking attempts of several States, back when Drumpf was still shrieking about ‘the system…

So they run the base the same way we run our military bases in Japan and South Korea and such? Okay, that’s what I was wondering. I thought they just operated the launches, but not the entire base.

It’s not Russia’s security that is responsible, is it, if the shuttle’s in Kazakhstan? Or do they also provide security as part of their leasing agreement?

Three times the loser, eh dickshitter?

Every time I see a WWJD sticker, I answer outloud, “I picture him in a ‘Cuda, myself.”

One, you’ve got no call whatsoever calling my objectivity *anything* when in the same breath you wag your self-righteous finger at me for supporting Obama. That’s an *assumption* that you couldn’t possibly have gleaned from anything *I* have said, as it has exactly zero foundation in reality and really says more…

He talks in complete sentences, so that’s true.

I’m not only referring to the executive order, I’m including the budget proposals that include a bit more NASA funding amidst the savage cuts to the EPA, the State Department, ect.

Toy Story was about him, though. It *did* contain a Mister Potato Head, after all.

My expectations are independent of his failure to meet them.

It baffles me that someone can be unfamiliar with the line even if they never saw the movie. He should have picked it up by pure osmosis alone, the reference has been all over the place since it was released, and TV was *saturated* with it for a while there. I mean, even I know “the one who knocks,” even though I…

It’s true that Obama axed Orion early on, and that’s why we didn’t have a Shuttle replacement ready when the fleet was grounded. That said, he did reinstate it, and NASA not only had plans to return to space, but had already set aside the budget necessary for a return to the Moon before Trump took office. This is a…

“Also, that a person with one bad idea can’t tell the truth about another thing.”

There’s absolutely no way this is the *only* bad idea this guy has, it’s perfectly reasonable to infer from this example that there is a long series of progressively more batshit ideas that came before this one. You don’t live a sane and…

On the D&D character sheets, “wisdom” and “intelligence” are two different stat blocks :) Also, betting that he’s got negatives in both, and has penciled-in ‘999' into each one without his DM’s approval.

I believe, and I quote, that “makes [him] smart.” So, Amazon must be far smarter than he is, considering they earn far more each year than he does.
