    China should just fly around the ISS doing flips and shit. Like, they need to bring a skateboard and do a space walk with it. Just stunt on the US as hard as possible

      I think 2 years is considered the safe lifetime limit for being in space. Not sure how doing it all at once affects things.

        The ISS is a giant disappointment, but I always take comfort that the first person in space, Yuri Gagrin, was born on a collective farm. The first person up there was a worker, and that means the universe to me

      Hmm, I hadn’t even thought about their compensation. How are they paid anyway? Is it an annual salary or contractual pay per mission? I wonder if all of this counts as overtime.

      After returning would they bother to buy one book at a discounted price, if they had unlimited money to purchase things?

    Government contracting in the US is like if you need a $3 can opener but you are only allowed to order from Acme Corp and they send you a sledgehammer with a stick of dynamite attached to the end along with a $500 invoice

    And then you are like yes good job this is exactly what I need and pay immediately then go on to see what else is in the catalog

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
