Stop Turning The Other Cheek
Yes.
We normal people have to recognize that these people hate us and want us dead. Kamala said that her ideology is that “everyone ends up at the same place.” That is the creed of the communists always, only way for that to happen is for that place to be the grave. We have to take them seriously.
Rights For Rocks
Presumably, these rights would apply to space rocks as well. Let me be the first to represent them: I declare their right to be made useful.
That’s A Shame
Amazon is losing billions on Alexa.
Commercial Space Conundrum
How does NASA get more competition against SpaceX?
Challenger
Jeff Foust reviews what looks to be an interesting new book on NASA’s safety culture.
The Weirdest Generation
Why Zoomers won’t show their feet.
To be fair, the Internet and porn have created a lot of social dysfunction, including terrible sex (at least for women, but probably men as well).
The Democrat Party
This is the end of it as we know it.
[Update a few minutes later]
Meet the new boss, same as the old.

Biden passes the torch. On a speakerphone.
The New Girl Disorder
Why women are the new campus radicals.
Well, it’s because women are now dominating academia.
My Current Travails
I missed my 7AM flight to LA from Vegas this morning, because I’m a dumbass, and went to the wrong concourse, and by the time I figured it out, it was too late to get to the right one (Note to self: in the future, look at your boarding pass). They put me on standby for the next flight that was scheduled for 1130 (and all flights are 100% full, because they’re still trying to recover from the CRWD update that had the same effect as a cyberattack). At 10, they rescheduled the flight for 1936. So I’ve now been here for ten hours, with a couple to go before I board. If I board. If not, I’ll go back to the hotel I’ve been staying and try for the 7AM flight tomorrow that I missed today.
So how’s your day going? Besides Biden ending his campaign. Or someone writing a letter ostensibly from him saying that he’s ending his campaign, without really explaining why. I wonder if he knows that he’s ending his campaign? Anyway, as Joe would say, anyway.
Thoughts from Mark Steyn.
[Monday-evening update]
Sorry for the lack of update. Yes, I caught a (slightly) earlier flight and got home last night.
