After Crew-5βs departure, the Exp 68 crew worked on immune system studies and space botany, and Crew-6, the newest station residents, also had time to adjust to life in space.https://go.nasa.gov/3mJoiSV

"Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones.
But no.
Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed.
Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die.
You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food.
You are meat for prowling beasts.
No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal.
A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery.
Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said."
We are at our best when we serve others.
Be civilized.

D.Trump was a ruthless criminal during all of his adult life who became a politicized mafia boss. Accordingly, he acted in the White House and the huge damage he inflicted on the country shows up: SVB collaps, Ohio train catastrophe + others, tax breaks for him and rhe rich, etc.
Knowing who Trump was or is, many US citizens voted for him in 2020 and still support him voluntarily! There are many explanations out there, but still for me unbelievable. Longing for fascism?

Tucker's Ex-Producer: Fox Viewers Are A Bunch Of 'Cousin F*ckers' https://crooksandliars.com/2023/03/tuckers-ex-producer-fox-viewers-are-bunch?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon
I think I can say my little guy was all of us who observe daylight savings this morning. After being woke up he cried heart wrenching sobs that he was too tired to go to school. This proceeded to a tantrum about how stupid daylight savings is. Finally he simply refused and got back in his bed. You're my hero little dude.
Iβm finding it hilarious that Picard is constantly trying to palm off his Chateau Picard and no one seems to want it.
Can you really host a technology and culture festival in a fascist state like Texas?
#SXSW is the past, go to Berlin or something, somewhere women can get healthcare without the Police being called
As RuPaul stated, βA social media post has never been as powerful as a registered vote.β So, we have our marching orders. We canβt sit back and watch our trans brothers and sisters and favorite drag artists be attacked by right-wing conservatives. We must use our civic duty and vote these bigots out of office. Check out the organizations below for more ways to support. π³οΈββ§οΈπ³οΈβπ

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
