I love taking my FC deep into the black. Just gotta pay my squad mates to load excess fuel and I’m good to go!

Yes, as of now, you cannot destroy another player’s fleet carrier.

My upkeep costs are ~$15,000,000 a week, which is a good chunk of money but not too much of a hassle.

Elite Dangerous! Form a squad w ur mates, and work towards a common goal of colonizing a solar system.

You’ve got a lot of learning to do if you pick that game up, but it is excellent.

Elite Dangerous: the grail is the Fleet Carrier. Spent 7 years of non-grindy playtime saving up for mine.

There is only one artist I listen to, that being Aleksi Perälä.

Colundi is an alternative tuning scale, not a genre of music. There are other artists out there making music with Colundi frequencies, but Perälä is the pioneer.

If you like jungle drums and sonic experimentation, check out his Midnight Sun project.

If you like acid techno, check out his Northern Lights project under the Ovuca namesake.

If you like ambient techno, check out the Colundi Sequence.

If you like breakbeat-fueled IDM, check out Sunshine, Starlight, and Moonshine.

He has lots more music, but I haven’t listened to it yet.

Not quite a suitable answer, but I concocted the saying “stop negatizing”. My parents then used the term against me throughout my childhood when I would pout or mope around.

I quite like the saying.

It’s good work music; I listen to it all day every day at my job.If you’re actually interested, I will gladly gush about it!

Nope! I listened to rap and metal when I was in school. Now, I listen only to Colundi.

Thanks for reminding me. :(

We’d better get to work!

It frustrates me that nobody has attempted construction of a Coriolis station yet. They are so prolific throughout science fiction and theoretical scientific literature, and they have been prolific for ages.

Detractors of Coriolis stations will usually say that the scale required for the optimal 1G is not feasible, but the physics behind the idea are more or less sound.

We have the technology to build one, it’s just a matter of profitability. Nobody wants to burn their trillions on a moonshot.

So I’m exposing my ignorance here, but I have a question.

Apart from MTG’s association, how am I to make the distinction between a “real” bill and a “statement “ bill?

I understand what you’re saying, and have been persuaded by your latest comment; I’m just hung up on that “just a statement bill” thing.

E: I guess it’s literally as simple as “MTG is such a joke that her bills will never pass”.

Yeah, it’s amazing nobody in this pedantic thread mentioned that awful tweet. That tweet reframes the whole argument, if you ask me.

You make an important distinction, but by voting against the statement AOC is still saying “I don’t like the idea of defunding Israel’s Iron Dome”.

Is that not something to be frustrated with?

We have virtually no progressive politicians in the US. The ones that are progressive inevitably concede to safe and exhausted liberal ideologies, and this further proves that point.

Hurrr durrr horseshoe theory

Any substantive cut on Israel’s funding needs to be made if it is introduced. I literally don’t care what they’re defunding or who introduced the bill; the less my taxpayer dollars go to genocidal psychos, the better. End of story.

Um… what the fuck. This is literally how I was initially exposed to Coldplay.

Out of touch, suburban mom driving kids around on errands and dropping them off at their extracurriculars.

Yeah probably not. Instagram has a pretty big racism and bigotry and anti-intellectualism problem. The average user over there does not know what imperialism means, to my eyes.

This is Instagram.

I know, I wish I didn’t know, too.

Hasn’t this been known for some time? Perhaps I’m confusing these spiders with ones that simply form wind sails.
