Today in Kazakhstan, Putin once again promoted his missiles—his readiness to kill and destroy. To the thousands of missiles that have already struck Ukraine, Putin clearly wants to add thousands more. He does not want this war to end. Moreover, he seeks to prevent others from ending it. By wagging his ‘oreshnik’ now he is aiming solely to disrupt the efforts of President Trump that are sure to follow his inauguration. Putin wants to escalate the situation now to ensure that President Trump cannot succeed in bringing this war to an end. Putin is the only one responsible for this war and the only one who believes in it. His current escalation is nothing more than a strategy to exert pressure, aiming to force the U.S. president to accept Russia’s terms later. We understand all the existing threats.

@EveVavagiakis @SimonsObs So awesome! I also have questions about this random table. :)

Very literally living the dream today. @SimonsObs

@wonderartsy Needed cat ears but I didn’t have them.

No photo today, fellow Lone Maskers, it's been a rough day for me. Happy Halloween 🎃 I'd love to see your masks and/or costumes.

@wonderartsy Love this style mask! What kind is it?

Thursday Lone Masker #MaskUp #CovidIsntOver

@PlanetDr Thank you so much. I got COVID a year ago and my GP wouldn’t give it to me because I’m “young and healthy” welp. I have what I think is long covid (but he denies and says is in my head) so I really want to be able to access it if I get it again!

@JustTheLetterU I guess this doesn’t help now but I had this crazy experience last time I had covid where I only tested positive on one brand of test (cue) and on Binax, Flowflex, all did not detect it, all week. I wouldn’t have known I was even sick but I was really tired and got long covid. 😭

The reason I took test #3 on Fri is because test #2 initially looked neg, but the faint line appeared after test #3 was conducted. Does anyone know if there are true asymptomatic or false positive cases out there, or those are myths and every pos result eventually has symptoms?

Bad news: I got my very first covid+ result. Good news: Either it's a false positive, or I'm an asymptomatic case? I thought I might be the latter last night, but current I'm leaning toward the former. Tests shown: Thurs: -, Fri: 1) +, 2) likely +, 3) -; Sat: 1) -, 2) -.

@girlandkat I'm so so sorry. :( Losing a kitty is just so hard and I'm thinking of you.

I’ve just said goodbye to my beautiful cat. Fuck you, 2020.

The cat just had a big asthma attack: her regular cough that just didn’t stop, stumbling as she tried to walk away and then panting with her tongue out for about 10 minutes. She is now fine. I am now shaking. And we’re waiting for the emergency vet to open (but only I know this)

@girlandkat I'm so sorry! :(

Read this thread and folks in astro come have your voices heard!

Thank you, I need this.

Went to see some space stuff on my vacation! #JAXA

created an account to support @LegoNASAWomen by @20tauri but why does @LEGOIdeas want to know if I'm a boy or girl?
