Gosh, you’re right. I was already primed to hate her. By her and her husband’s repeated statements that people I love should not exist.

I genuinely believe that enforced decorum benefits the powerful. “I get to do whatever I want without consequence but you’re terrible for saying something mean to me” is a thing an oppressor says.

It’s always cool to kick a nazi in the balls.

Jesus, man. The false equivalency is just so terrible.

The devil never asked for an advocate, and those nazi wannabes didn’t either. You don’t have to defend them, especially with language they’d laugh at.

It is not okay to make fun of someone for something they had no influence over. Their height, or race, or how rich or poor they grew up.

It is 100% okay to make fun of someone for their terrible decisions. Like wearing skintight leather pants to your late husband’s funeral where you publicly got to like first base with the vice president and sold merch.

It takes a while to go from orbital insertion to operational orbit, but that would be the last 40ish launches worth of satellites working their way up.

Maybe a good fraction of them are parked as on-orbit backups?

That’s what I’m using! It’s great. Definitely has that Apollo feel.

I know what you’re saying, but even one of them going off near a target would result in unimaginable suffering, and probably trigger an escalation from there.

Your monk can catch arrows now? Don’t stop shooting them. Shoot them more.
