Pirate faction?! Remain where you are, agents of the Imperial Security Bureau are being dispatched to your location. 🤣

Infamous M101. Such a pain to see visually, such a low surface brightness that even with a large reflector under dark skies I couldn't see it. Not even in my peripheral vision with the higher sensitivity.

Feel free to do something, threaten withholding taxes from the Feds, throw the word secession around. You represent the richest state in the union, use that pull and authority, take a more assertive stand against the Felon In Chief. Please.

There was a stay on the order. The national guard will remain under Trump's authority for now.

Can't wait to see what action you will take against that.

Hot news indeed. 🤣

Well, half-won. Can't sue the Marines out of LA who answer only to the CinC.

Bleeding heart leftist actually, who's tired of impotent Dems making token gestures against a tin pot dictator.

Why do people think Gavin is so great? His response to Trump and ICE in LA is laughable. A governor who's only response to a power usurping President is to ...sue him ...isn't Presidential by a longshot.

You'd think the NHL leadership had a concussion considering how horrifyingly awful the officiating is.

A reminder that our planet was born in fire. 🔥

How petty can Drump get?

Time to hold back taxes from the federal government and/or start tossing the subject of secession around.

What? Did Newsom finally find some of his backbone? Five months too late, but whatever, at least he's calling Trump out at last.

I’m not completely convinced this isn’t all political theatre by both of them, mocking all of us who think this is a real feud.

The end of that story is a bit of a shock. Released on bail? After a violent assault like that?

The fact that a troll is the richest person in the world says a lot about our system. Primarily that it's completely busted and lopsided.

Spectacular screenshot. o7 I've always wondered how cool it would be to have a daylight picnic beneath a pitch black sky.

On my way, gorgeous. 😍

Next up, the Trump administration replaces all pilots with amateurs. The resulting plane crashes will be blamed on DEI.

Ow.

I remember those playoffs for when Fleury fumbled the puck to give the Habs an easy goal against the Golden Knights. IIRC Fleury was devastated by his rookie-level screwup & was benched for the rest of the series. However the damage had been done and the Habs would win the series.

It's the administration's defining characteristic. Well, that and cruelty.

America has turned into the Ferengi Alliance, though I don't even think the Ferengi would abandon science this badly.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, what a massacre. Hopefully disgruntled engineers and scientists can seek employment in other countries that aren't embracing stupidity as the US is.

The effects sequence when the monster tries to penetrate the ship’s forcefield is still very impressive to this day.

I also like the homage to Admiral Kirk’s uniform in STTMP.
