Nah. China is doing way better than nothing. Their moon base and orbital solar array plans are at least a decade ahead of anything we’re doing. And NASA’s budget cuts mean we’ll barely be able to maintain what we already have.

The 1% ouroboros

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Ouroboros?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

An ouroboros is a snake eating its own tail.

edit: Snake. Sorry, I had just woken up.

Ah, yes. Still not entirely sure how it relates to the CNSA though...

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I'm not the original commenter, but I think they might have been referring to the 1% sabotaging themselves / each other (IE eating their own metaphorical tails).

Why squished?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The image was like that when I found it.

Make sure to squish it a bit more before you repost it. It helps keeps the memes fresh

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 3 points 9 hours ago

No it will LOSE ITS JUICES.

Are those real tweets/posts/whatever? Can't really tell these days

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 day ago

The parent tweet is real, however I believe the "chad CNSA" reply is not.

Can’t really tell these days

Yeah, today definitely put my digital literacy skills to the test.

[–] raltoid@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Real, but there's a decent chance it's all for show.

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Yeah, almost certainly they're both posturing to some extent.

Oh shit. An American politician didn't stay bought?! What the fuck, right? I guess this is his first time.

I'll be watching with popcorn in hand to see how much Trump coin suddenly loses value.
