Space is the Place
Last sentence is comical. "For example, the waves given off by the cataclysmic final merger of GW150914 reached Earth after travelling over a billion light-years, as a ripple in spacetime that changed the length of a 4 km LIGO arm by a thousandth of the width of a proton, proportionally equivalent to changing the distance to the nearest star outside the Solar System by one hair's width.[37] This tiny effect from even extreme gravitational waves makes them observable on Earth only with the most sophisticated detectors." hard to grasp these numbers.

“You Will Not Replace Us” is a white supremacist slogan that became popular in early 2017, as did its acronym version, YWNRU. The slogan appeared on white supremacist flyers, banners and graffiti in a variety of places in the first six months of 2017, gaining wider attention when white supremacists used the phrase at several rallies held in Charlottesville, Virginia, culminating in the large and violent Unite the Right event in August 2017. The slogan is a reference to the popular white supremacist belief that the white race is in danger of extinction by a rising tide of non-whites who are controlled and manipulated by Jews (in fact, one variant of “You Will Not Replace Us” is “Jews Will Not Replace Us”). ...adl yes, on the number one network, by a man who makes forty million a year. It really is astonishing.

"Living next to you (usa) is in some ways like sleeping with an elephant. No matter how friendly and even-tempered is the beast, if I can call it that, one is affected by every twitch and grunt." Pierre Trudeau anyway, Ive been following the Americans since The first Iraq invasion, bush 1. early nineties. people have been predicting the end of the US since at least that time. I dont think its happening, and living beside them, we need to hope like hell it doesnt happen. anything we have that they want, under a fascist dictatorship, they will simply take, if we dont cooperate. water being no. 1 in the coming years after theyve drained the last drop from their rivers and acquifers. "The idea predates Trump’s presidential campaign. As far back as 2011, he was telling the Wall Street Journal that this was his policy for Iraq. “You heard me, I would take the oil,” he said. “I would not leave Iraq and let Iran take the oil.” And he insisted to ABC News that this did not amount to national theft."

If the following makes sense to a person, they are beyond reach: Fox news panelist Ainsley: Ainsley Earhardt on the NY Times story about Trump's $1 billion+ in business losses: "If anything, you read this and you're like 'wow, it's pretty impressive, all the things that he's done in his life.' It's beyond what most of us could ever achieve."

Houston Texas "In one of Batteau’s residences, three elderly Houstonians packed into a $300 per-month dimly lit one-room apartment, no bigger than many walk-in closets. One, a 72-year-old woman who uses a wheelchair and identified herself as “Mrs. Sarah,” said she’d been relying on bottled water since the February storm. Unable to walk, she’d been receiving water donations from friends like Flip, an elderly homeless man who lives underneath a nearby bridge and was now visiting her. Both were thirsty. Jackson promised to return with water later that afternoon. " https://www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/houston-third-ward-running-water/

wonder if Trump got involved in something with these two. we know he liked hookers. maybe they found him someone that resembled ivanka! probably from the Bill Clinton school of how to do things. centre right is not the way . https://www.alternet.org/2020/02/pete-buttigieg-is-a-wall-street-democrat-beholden-to-corporate-interests/ but Digby likes him so... "He’s very good at this and I suspect they’re going to have him out there a LOT to sell this infrastructure bill. Let’s hope so, anyway. Some people just have a gift for that sort of thing and he’s one of them. This AP profile today is obviously a beat sweetener but the fact is that Buttigieg has shown himself, so far, to be an effective team player even as his ambition emanates from him in waves. It will be interesting to see him at work."

Game 37 : Toronto
there are times when they look completely lost. in their end second to puck, or if they get there on time, cant get it out. also, do not seem to mind oponents in the crease. forwards might be more helpful. allowing two on ones, shorthanded goals. stretched out flailing at the puck with stick. not going to work that well. seem to fall apart quickly now and then.
