@erik_wt @GlowplugvRay @VividProwess Hint: If you don't want your living area destroyed, don't invade the larger neighbor, rape and kill 1500 civilians, kidnap 300 and then refuse to negotiate in good faith

@GlowplugvRay @VividProwess Israel should pay for reconstruction of Gaza: if you break it, you pay it.

@WilliamShatner @ecoflixofficial If all of the money goes to the NGO, then what's paying the expenses of the streaming service itself?
English

One of my neighbors started @ecoflixofficial: the first not-for-profit streaming site. So I figured I would tell you about it.
Imagine a subscription channel where your monthly fee goes directly to helping the animals that you are watching.
You can join the first not-for-profit streaming channel dedicated to saving animals and the planet. 100% of your membership fees go to an NGO chosen by you! Via their programming, Ecoflix's primary goal is to educate, inspire and support meaningful actions which will deliver a tangible, measurable difference to help save animals and restore the planet.
At the same time, they aim to become the most trusted, ‘go-to’ media source for information, science and inspiration on climate change, whilst performing a crucially active role in saving animals and stabilizing the planet. You can join from just $3.99/month. watch.ecoflix.com.

@HellaMista @NASASpaceflight They aren't pilots, they are passengers on that POS

And there's the Starliner update. No new launch date:
NASA: "NASA, Boeing, and ULA are forgoing the Saturday, May 25 launch attempt for NASA’s Boeing Crew Flight Test. The team has been in meetings for two consecutive days, assessing flight rationale, system performance, and redundancy. There is still forward work in these areas, and the next possible launch opportunity is still being discussed.
NASA will share more details once we have a clearer path forward."

Please tell me this hot garbage was written by AI. It has to be, either that or someone did not do any research...

@SciGuySpace It's a great rocket, but way too expensive given the alternatives available today

I've got a guilty secret that I can now share—I loved the Delta IV Heavy rocket.

Five days after Menlo-Atherton High School’s @TheMAChronicle filed their copyright claims against me, the #KillingAmerica trailer remains down from @Vimeo and @YouTube. And since Friday, the full film remains down on both sites. In addition, the Chronicle has not retracted their cease and desist letter sent to me last Tuesday.
Posted below are two screenshots of @TheMAChronicle’s explanation, after the fact, trying to explain away their actions.
Two takeaways here.
1) They make no mention of the Fair Use doctrine which allows copyrighted footage to be used without permission. YouTube explicitly asks one to consider Fair Use before filing a DCMA claim. M-A Chronicle claims to provide “objective coverage” but they can’t even do that here. Their omission of Fair Use is intentional and misleads the public. As journalists, they know better but chose activism over their duty.
2) The Chronicle states in the below post that their editorial board “made this decision without communicating with or being influenced by M-A administration.” Who is the editorial board? Students? Minors who are not legally allowed to file claims? Why didn’t the journalist teacher advisor, John McBlair, fulfill his educational responsibilities here re Fair Use?
This is a clear attempt by the administration to distance itself from this issue. But the fact is that the administration and district are responsible for this publicly funded paper. Now that the administration and the district — which has activists throughout who were exposed in my film — know about the actions of the minors why haven’t they taken any actions to retract the false claims against me? Remember, minors cannot legally file such claims and minors are not the copyright holders of said publicly funded materials.
The district’s School Board led the charge to remove the honors classes over the past 8 years. The principal of M-A High, Karl Losekoot, slammed the film without seeing it. And on. These people are not without severe biases and their motivation to stop this film is more than clear.
But I will not change one frame of this film and will continue to fight to expose the full rot within this district and school.

@Hebro_Steele @YouTube You do know you can appeal the takedown? Theoretically, they should reinstate it while investigating
English

What happens when you try to tell the truth in a world invested in ideological lies?
This AM, I received an email from @YouTube: “We received a copyright removal request for your video (#KillingAmerica). Based on applicable copyright law, we removed your video from YouTube.”

Great way to see near-realtime earthquakes:

@SciGuySpace @blueorigin Looks more like advertising than real progress. These images almost look like they came out of a 90's SF book

This is some remarkable transparency from @blueorigin. Great to see.

Bittersweet. But man is it cool to see it like this.

A new dawn for Endeavour 🚀🌅 Today, the Science Center reached a major milestone toward its future ready-to-launch display of Endeavour with the successful lift of the orbiter. This marks the first time this process has been accomplished outside of a NASA or Air Force facility.

@odinwondering @DJSnM Because landing on the moon is extremely hard. Japan is only the 5th country to do so, there have been countless other attempts to do so, with many failures

@CathyCa80116006 @JaninaDill continuted: So, since Israel didn't want to be there, and the Gazans didn't want Israel there, and Egypt refuses to open it's border, somehow it's still Israel's fault? Israel gave them exactly what they were asking for
English

@JaninaDill Remember why they are trapped. Egypt refuses to open its border. Every Arab/Muslim apologist insists that encouraging refugees to temporarily leave Gaza is tantamount to abandoning the "right to return" and a second Nakba. In every other war situation, refugees flee to another
English

"In no other war we can think of in this century have civilians been so trapped, without any avenue or option to escape to save themselves and their children."
