@lyse believe it or not, I imagined the whole thing in my head, and kind of ROFLMAO. I am sure it was much, much less funny in real life. So, sorry! :-P

@bender@twtxt.net Hahaha, great, mission accomplished! :-D The cleanup took half an hour, that was the annoying part. But the immediate aftermath of this accident looked really funny, I thought about taking a photo for a second. However, in order to confine the damage quickly, I decided against it.

Earth’s atmosphere is an impediment to astronomical observations. Not only is cloudy weather a problem, but temperature fluctuations in the atmosphere mean that ground-based telescopes require sophisticated adaptive optics systems to see clearly. Radio telescopes aren’t bothered by clouds, but need to be built in ‘radio quiet’ locations to do their job best. ⌘ Read more

Why Republicans think it’s okay to starve poor people
Oliver Willis, Staff Writer - Daily Kos
Stephan: This is an accurate story of how it came to be that the Republicans stopped caring or having any interest in the wellbeing of voters.
