because words mean things. For example, you’re not an engineer nor are you engineering if you cut a straw shorter to fit your cup better.

Yuri Gagarin was a highly accomplished person, in the field, and the first person in space

Katy Perry didn’t even go to space, they didn’t leave the atmosphere… they didn’t orbit, they only experienced weightlessness from falling….

and more importantly, while our government is erasing records of actual women astronauts who spent days and months in orbit
extremely talented and educated women who risked their lives… purging those records and calling it DEI, it’s extremely insulting to pretend like Katy Perry should be an inspiration for women as a woman astronaut….

she’s a talented musician… i mean, i don’t like her music… but she should be inspiring with that. She’s not an astronaut because she took the hundredth ride on an autopilot near-space tourist ship for 11 minutes….

btw, this is the information age… nerds rule the world… everything you’ve ever touched has been made by nerds and you’ll just be dependent on nerds’ creations for the rest of your life.

nerd is no longer an insult. it’s a badge of honor.
