Breaking: NASA announces plans to get really close to having a plan to have a budget for maybe going to the Moon by 2024, within a few weeks ago
This is genuinely comical: NASA's plan to get back to the Moon in 5 years instead of 9 is to "emphasize getting things done quickly" and "get those boots on the Moon as soon as possible."
What about spacesuits? Well, once we figure out, uh, what the astronauts are going to be doing on the Moon, we'll uh "probably develop a suit to move forward in that direction."

I have some questions about this article. The El Paso massacre "has revived debate about the limits of free speech, protected by the First Amendment in the United States."

Who's reviving it, aside from this article itself? The article offers no examples. nytimes.com/2019/08/06/wor…
Question two: The article talks at great length about precedents for legal restrictions on free speech. What is the case for how any of these might have stopped the El Paso massacre? Again, no attempt to address this.
Is the idea that if it had been illegal for the El Paso shooter to publish his racist manifesto, that might have prevented the shooting? That's outlandish.

In case you're wondering why some people think scientism is a real ideology — not an innocent uninterest in life as experienced by human beings, but a quest to find meaning in depriving others of it.
After an atrocity in Rationalia, all persons are required to consult actuarial tables before issuing their souls permission to shudder.
Guys, Neil was just trying to be helpful. He thought everybody was mad because we just didn't have the information that people also die of things other than mass shootings. But he miscalculated his human psychology formula. So sorry! facebook.com/notes/neil-deg…

It's hard to know if it's more remarkable that the Dayton police were able to take out the shooter so quickly ⁠— less than a minute, according to reports ⁠— or that he was nonetheless able to kill and injure so many in in that time.
"More good guys with guns" is not unreasonable as one among many parts of a national response, but this sure shows its limits.
At the press conference, Dayton PD says they took out the shooter within 30 seconds of the first shot. 37 people in 30 seconds. This is... incredible if true.

#BREAKING Trump and Kim summit over
Trump: nobody knows how it will turn out but it is a historic day, quick notice no one saw this coming, in speaking with President Moon, often times he said the meeting itself is historic and there's something to that.
Trump: So we have agreed to have teams set up (refers to Pompeo, Biegun) & what's going to happen is over the next two or three weeks, the teams are going to start working to see whether they can do something. Pretty big stuff, complicated, but not as complicated as people think.

#BREAKING Burnaby RCMP have descended on Camp Cloud and begun arresting protesters. Soon after this video was taken police told me and one other member of the media to leave the area and threatened us with arrest. #bcpoli #cdnpoli
Dozens of cops pulled up suddenly shortly after 5 am and began arresting everyone in sight. Two have been taken away on sitting stretchers. Seemingly for resisting arrest. #CampCloud #TransMountain #bcpoli #cdnpoli
A small gathering of supporters is watching on as police clear Camp Cloud. At least four arrests have been made.
