Two nervous girls as the storm approaches Des Moines.

Nice to see Echostar push back on the FCC's "arbitrary and capricious" decision to grant the SpaceX request for a waiver of the OOBE limit. $ASTS 🥊 www.fcc.gov/ecfs/documen...

Sharing some AMAZING $ASTS Infographics from @paul44250784.bsky.social! 🫡Please review and share with others!

So of course, less than a month after I decided to retire early so I could travel while I still had health and ability, I started having hip problems and can barely walk. MRI tomorrow. Trip to Amsterdam later this month has been canceled. UGH.

Today is the 60th anniversary of the Selma race riot known as "Bloody Sunday". I was in high school in the late 70's and it still pisses me off to this day that we were never taught about it.

Maybe Musk should spend more of his time paying attention to his SpaceX rockets and less time plotting to destroy our economy.

on the bigger picture

When no other reply is accurate.

Snowstorms started hitting differently the year I went to the garage and there was a snow shovel hanging on the wall where my sled used to be.

I would seriously give my life savings ($328) to see Trump rolling his eyes at this half-time show!

Every time the Eagles score, Taylor Swift glares at Kelce and writes another song.

We have an unspoken contest in our neighborhood who will be the last to crumble and shut 'em off. It's now February 7th, and there are four of us left. 5th one took his down last weekend. Seriously considering the permanent lights that you can change color with the seasons....

I called this masterpiece "Conflict of Interest"

Ketchup On Walls Alert: HIGH

True Fact: I am still using the CompuServe mouse pad that came with my 2400 Baud modem in 1986.

As we all know, encryption is a big deal in cybersecurity. I shall henceforth refer to grinding my coffee beans as "Encrypting the Beans"

Awww... I just noticed some people from work are following me so now I can't complain about work. (maybe) Lol next post will be about work.

Welcome to Iowa.

People from states with nice roads may never understand what it's like hitting a pothole so hard that your soul leaves your body for a moment and you feel an obligation to audibly apologize to your car.

Yes, I bought a new labeler.

Remember starting in 2017 we used to all wake up every morning and think "OMG what has that orange fuckhead done overnight THIS time?". Well, those days are back.

I see the rambling, nonsensical spewing has already started.

"If we can't get along, we ought to be apart. And I wonder where'd you get that cold, cold heart..." - John Anderson (I shot this pic at sunrise. It's 2F degrees in Iowa)

Absolutely awesome. Looking forward to New Glenn launch because if all goes well, later this year it will carry AST Spacemobile satellites into LEO!

ME: Pays off car loan (YAY!) CREDIT SCORE: I'll drop you 18 points, Todd. ME ... CREDIT SCORE: BOOYAH, SUCKER!

One of the weird things about being recently single is having to put fitted sheets on a king-sized bed by myself. Please enjoy this haiku I have written to commemorate the experience: sheets on cats on sheets what the hell is happening I'll sleep on the floor

Hurricanes? Meh Tornadoes? Eh. Blizzards? Whatever. Want to know what scares the shit out of me? Before I go to bed tonight I have to put fitted sheets on a king size bed all by myself.

Okay hear me out. A reboot TV show about a doctor who doesn't actually have a degree but did his own research on YouTube. I'll call it Marcus Welby, WebMD. Yes? No?

Haven't heard much from Mike Pence these days.

If you’re cold, they’re cold. Bring your TV inside.

One of my Samoyeds insists on going out in the snow. She fell asleep and is getting covered with it.

Heads up, central Iowa.

$ASTS Files a semi-annual report with the FCC on Jan 2nd. In the final stages of executing an agreement to protect Optical and Radio telescopes. Excellent! Click link twice to see the filing. licensing.fcc.gov/myibfs/downl...
