See, this is why Mike Brown's IAU-abusing anti-Pluto temper tantrum hasn't been properly trashed. Instead of united resistance, we ended up with factionalism over different definitions. Some want everything as a planet, some want dozens-to-hundreds, and some want it back to 9.

Delightful ... though I have to ask, how many planets are you declaring?

Thin, cold mountain air . . . wait, do you even believe in terrain? Why can't a gas experience gravitational confinement? Can a liquid, in your mind?

"America wants permanent daylight saving time." No, we don't. If you want to identify as a different timezone, that's on you, but don't try to force everyone else to respect your preferred timezone pronouns. Change your schedule, not the clock.

So it's just like Earth, then.

Generational ships raise serious moral issues. Later generations never chose to live their entire lives and die confined on a ship floating in space. That is a violation of free will. Roughly 16 generations would be sentenced to life in prison for no crime other than being born.

An unstoppable air leak on the ISS' Zvezda module forces permanent closure of its compartment, in turn requiring redocking of all future Russian cargo ships between two ports for cargo delivery and orbit corrections. DETAILS: russianspaceweb.com/2026.htm…

Conspiraloon reasoning never disappoints ... just add more co-conspirators! Maybe Putin's in on it, too, what with invading the country to give their parliamentary body members cover to vote in that way.

My good sir, you can always have a like, even if the circadian rhythm disruption of Downright Silly Time has affected your mind. ;-)

Ew.
If daylight saving time became permanent, here is a look at some of the latest sunrise times across the contiguous United States.

The Klingon variation is far more excessive if the Discoverse is included. Original Universe Klingons have explained variation. JJ-Verse Klingons have pointed ears and a piercing fetish. Discoverse added extra nostrils, claws, elongated skull that could melt away, et cetera.

Huhh, so this is what a supersonic sea-skimming target interception looks like (Unseen IR cam Footage from US navy). USS Philippine Sea & USS Mason engaging a GQM-163A Coyote target using AEGIS combat system and SM-2 interceptors during SWATT training in the Atlantic.

Now we learn if a lifeforce sustained by hatred can outlast the man who doesn't think of the other at all.

On this day in 1919, the US welcomed repeal of Daylight Saving Time, which had been implemented for the first time in 1918 for World War I.

Fun, but I can't quite bring myself to seriously consider it. The least realistic part was where the Imperials kept managing to hit him. Everyone knows that's impossible for them.

"suspicions as to who they might be" Aw, now. I preferred to imagine there were plenty of other folks whose grasp and vision of Trek was on that par. If you're telling me it's actually someone already known ... well, that's disappointing. It subtracts from the count.
