Alyssa Carson (born March 10, 2001) is an American space enthusiast who has attended numerous space camps and has visited every NASA visitor center.[1] She has been profiled by a variety of news outlets, public interest publications, and interview shows as an unofficial astronaut-in-training.

[...]

While frequently described by the media as an "astronaut in training",[20][10] Carson is not affiliated with any national space program.[21][22] NASA has publicly stated that the organization "has no official ties to Alyssa Carson",[22] and separately that "although Ms. Carson uses ‘NASA' in her website name and Twitter and Instagram handles, we’re not affiliated at all."[23] In 2019 Newsweek corrected a headline that had implied that Carson's training was affiliated with NASA.[9] Snopes.com also has dedicated a page to clarify such claims, which says: "Carson is not in training with—or being prepped by—NASA to become an astronaut, or to take part in the first human mission to Mars."[24]

I need one of these for myself. I know hella rocks and will probably be the lead of the smithsonian or something if I become a geologist someday.

edit: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alyssa-carson-87b874152 Can someone with a Linkedin account confirm that she doesn't actually have any work experience whatsoever? I think that part might be hidden for me but I only see bullshit awards, her own org about wanting to be an astronaut when she grows up, volunteering one day per year at space camp, and inspirational articles from 2018 about how she wants to be an astronaut when she wants to grow up. There's no "internship at [legitimate company]" which is a required class for any BS degree at my university.

The 45+ crowd will vote for him because they support isn'treal and are afraid of Drumpf but I think we're going to see a massive drop out of young voters. Probably too with the people who already don't vote to begin with, namely service workers who are fucked over either way with D's and R's.

And here I thought Biden was going to win in November, time to eat crow.

articleSpeaking in Riyadh, UK foreign secretary Cameron says there is a “generous” offer of a sustained 40-day ceasefire in Gaza, in exchange for the release of captives.

“The current proposal before Hamas includes the release of potentially thousands of Palestinian prisoners,” he says.

“I hope Hamas accepts the proposal in front of them,” he adds, saying that the war won’t end until all the captives are released.

Cameron also says that the Hamas leadership and those responsible for the October 7 attack need to leave Gaza in order “to have a political horizon for a two-state solution”.

Hamas has repeatedly said that it wants a permanent end to the fighting, which has killed more than 34,000 Palestinians.

"Generous"

Anything but a permanent ceasefire is meaningless.

"U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris demanded Hamas agree to an immediate six-week ceasefire while urging Israel to do more to boost aid deliveries to Gaza. “"

40 days isn't even the shitty six week ceasefire which Kamala was talking about.

I'm seeing so much deflection from liberals when it comes to Biden's and democrat's support and enabling of genocide. Just basic criticism of Biden's support of Israel is met with "Trump would be worse" which basically means we should actively support the current genocidal maniac in power and deflect from any criticism of his support, thus enabling the genocide. It's pretty pathetic that's the only counter argument they have, that he is worse than Trump, but the logic of it doesn't even make sense.

Like I understand these people don't actually care about the genocide and that it's just a bad look or whatever which means they need to punch down even harder on any criticism. They see the obvious criticism and how people are disgusted with him and other democrats and are afraid that will loose them votes. They see 20% non-committed in the Minnesota primary for example where party loyalists are saying they would rather not vote for anyone than him, and it scares them. Those votes come from party loyalists and these are the people who is suppose to convince others to vote for Biden, and they can't even muster enough to do it themselves.

So I have some advice for liberals who want Biden to win. Stop deflecting and start demanding and protesting for an end to democratic support of genocide. Even if you don't actually give a shit about the genocide, more and more people are going to die, more and more horrific mass graves are going to be uncovered. Until the election it's only going to get worse not better. More and more people are going to be disgusted with the idea of voting for him. So do yourself, and everyone else, a favor and stop deflecting any criticism of Biden's genocide.
