So They Say Today

 It will be a day of widespread rain and storms. It begins cool and cloudy. Well, we will just have to wait and see. Rain is certainly desperately needed. Much is made of Artemis but the vehicle is not equipped to land on the moon, and the moon landing plan is complicated by the absence of a plan. You can't have a plan if you don't have a plan. Gateway? Some boondoggle involving Starship with multiple refuelings in orbit, and it has not even been demonstrated that such refueiings will even work? The whole thing looks half-assed. Starship is still a joke. Moon landings are still pie in the sky. Note how Mars got vanished, became an unperson, so to speak-- no more talk of Mars. Just as well, because it was insane. Screw manned spaceflight. One more stupid human trick. Almost all of the tricks humans can do, turn out to be stupid. I say "almost" but actually I can't think of any human trick that is not ultimately stupid, but surely there must be something.
