At the Space Settlement Summit a few weeks ago, I pointed out that there are some people who will oppose space settlement not because of the cost, but because they think that humanity is an infestation that must not be allowed to spread beyond the planet of its birth. Here’s a good example (for anyone who was a fan of Momoa before).

The Deep State (AKA The Creep State)
It has the sadz, and that’s a good thing.
Anti-semitism
Bari Weiss writes about its rise in the West.
Climate Alarmism
How it hurts us all.
Frightening kids with this unscientific nonsense is one more form of child abuse in government schools. And Greta T is the poster child for it.
[Update a while later]
The UN’s “woke” climate-change propaganda is an insult to science.

Sorry, just noticed that the last link is behind a paywall.
Totalitarians
Fans of Fauxcahontas and Bernie think that people should be jailed for “offensive” speech.
Yes, I’m as shocked as you are.
The War On History
Understanding its leftist roots.
Gratitude
I know that posting has been light, but this is the first real vacation we’ve had in a while. We’re in a vacation rental up above Estes Park, within walking distance of the park boundary of Rocky Mountain National Park. We’ve been pretty much house bound since the storm, but it’s OK, because it’s a very nice house, and we do have an all-wheel machine to go down the mountain into town if we want to.
Here is the view from one of the balconies.
That’s the continental divide, inside the park. I think that the pointy mountain to the right is Long’s Peak, the furthest-north fourteener.
But I want to give thanks for my health, which considering all the wear and tear of decades, is still pretty good. My back is slowly recovering, and I’ll probably be back to normal by next week. I’m also grateful to live in what I think is still the greatest country on the planet, warts and all, and despite the desires of some to “fundamentally transform it.”
I’m also grateful for my readers, and all of my friends in the space industry, and the ability to start to accelerate our progress in opening the solar system to humanity in the coming years.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Trumps “Progressive” Allies
Despite all their sound and fury, they actually act as though they want more Trump.
Clinton Impeachment History
For those too young, or too ignorant at the time due to the Democrat operatives with bylines, I did a Twitter thread.
Boeing
How and when the company started its downhill slide. I always thought the move to Chicago was a bad idea.
