The space x starlink sattelites were cruising our skies here the other night. Looked like they were coming down. To be fair, i thought it was just another #firebenning banner flying in the sky :noidea:

We saw this around the Seattle area the other night. Weird because a) there was a large cone shaped much dimmer and massively larger (with the largest part of the cone closest to the satellite) light formation "following" the satellite lights. It was weird because it was at a 45 degree (or so) angle from the satellite lights' path, and b) the satellite lights themselves really looked like they were falling straight down, and not following a curvature during the Earth's rotation.

I'm sure there is an explanation but I can't really figure it all out. Maybe the light cone was a unrelated event? I know logically that the satellite "falling" illusion was just the Earth rotating but to my knowledge I still haven't seen such events appear like that. Maybe I have seen this many times and just didn't realize and understand it?

CSB time: aka, my best dad move ever.


One clear Christmas eve, my cousins were over. Our daughters were about 6 or 7 years old
We are really building up the santa thing, with norad tracker on the TV and everything - the kids are getting pumped.

now... I subscribe to "spot the station" texts, which tells you exactly when and where the ISS is visible from your area.
i get a message something like: 7:43PM visible 6 minutes max height 59*, appears 16* above W, disappears 10* above ENE. Very specific.
That motherfucker is moving FAST. Takes about 93 minutes to circle the globe.

so 7:41 i take the girls outside, telling them "every now and then, when the air is just right, you can see....."
when this bright light comes over the horizon, i ask "what do you think that is?" I've never seen kids so astounded.
My cousin was second guessing things as well, as i didn't tell him the plan in advance.



that may or may not have been the same year we forgot to get stocking stuffers in advance, so headed to the 7-11 at 10:30 to get junk food, lottery tickets, key chains, and whatever else wasn't cigarette related.

Not like the US isn't guilty of letting space junk roam around and fall back to earth whenever.

Anyway there is around 71% chance of it hitting water.

So maybe it will hit some Vlogger who has taken a couple years off work to sail around the world? ;)

...VERY different kind of fuck around find out.

I don’t know which is more ridiculous... the fact that the former President called a horse “a junky” or that the guy who saw a pandemic kill a half million Americans on his watch thinks that one horse having too many steroids is a sign of the country being off course.

Meh, just call Trump a horse's ass and leave it at that.

Speaking of a horse's ass (although Woolery is sneaky because he does sprinkle a little truth into his tweet).

So basically Woolery is telling us that Cary Grant, Tony Curtis and Joan Crawford HAVE been in Cliff Clavin's kitchen? Well I'll be damned!!

So constant denials is the only way you can tell someone is lying?

When is Chuck Wooolery going to address the rumors that he provided the young men for Jeffrey Dahmer?

adderall addict calls the horse what?
Good thing he doesn't pay attention to his kids (other than the one he wants to fuck), or he might be a tad disappointed in don jr's cocaine consumption.



but now i have this image of a horse at an AA Meeting

- Hi, my name is Medina, and i'm an addict.
- Hi Medina
- I've been clean for three weeks, now *scraches horse-elbow*
- *applause*
- it got bad though, man. I never thought I'd be sucking dick for betamethasone behind the 7-11, those were some dark years.
- *crown nods knowingly* Stay strong medina! You're in a safe place here.
*applause*

This is what bothers me. This horse is bad news and is not changed at all, its just upset it was caught. Now it will go on it's redemption tour, cry big fake tears, and people will sympathize. You can't fool me Medina Spirit!
