They don’t wear badges. They don’t answer questions. The last thing you see before the blindfold comes down is the dull reflection of your own face in the car window, disappearing into the dark.
Ok then, seeking recs for other graphic novels depicting women and people of color in space (or science or deep sea exploration or...) because after going to the space museum with her Cub Scout pack my 6 year old is all about space and these would have been perfect for her!
Good one! An email letter from POTUS Joe Biden today asking for $ for the DNC pissed me off. Maybe that's not fair. No doubt the DNC thinks to fight billionaire Musk et al they need to solicit more $ from 'everyone'
But it made me remember Professor Bernardo de la Paz:
“The power to tax, once conceded, has no limits; it continues until it destroys. I was not joking when I told them to dig into their own pouches. It may not be possible to do away with government
– sometimes I think that government is an inescapable disease of human beings. But it may be possible to keep it small and starved and inoffensive – and can you think of a better way than by requiring the governors themselves to pay the costs of their antisocial hobby?”
I should add though that I don't really agree that our government should be kept small and starved. When it works the way I think it should, always pursuing the goal of Freedom and Justice for all, then it's worth the costs of taxation - as long as taxation isn't in itself unjust.
I roll my eyes whenever a conservative whines about Star Trek, Star Wars, or really ANY science fiction "going woke."
Science fiction has ALWAYS been "woke." Either it shows a utopia caused by equity, or a dystopia caused by what we recognize as the extreme application of conservative ideology.
I can’t tell whether they hate that they’re black or they’re women. Or maybe both?
Regardless they’re ruining an entire generation of little girl and black kid dreamers who want to be astronauts. This administration would tell them they can’t and to not bother. Fuckers.
I love how they think it’s 1940 and that taking things off the internet makes it go away forever. Bitch, have you heard of hard drives?! We’ll put this shit back on when they’re dead. #internetisforever
Of course because we are grooming you boys to be astronauts. Oh wait, girl astro nots. Let’s spend billions on chasing this idiotic idea down the path and then tell the public how much was save by not publishing a comic book.
Dear NASA please send the first orange 'man' (I use the word man loosely here) into space. Preferably in one of those exploding 'Space x' rockets. Don't be woke and excuse any losers claiming to have spurs though.
You know… I’ve had a script about women in astronomy and space for a few years now. Maybe I should illustrate it. Hadn’t thought about it before now. 🤔

I used to hold NASA in the highest regards
Now? Pfff!

It’s us or them, folks. If they haven’t figured it out by now they are just lying when they say they aren’t racist pieces of Nazi shit.
