An interesting piece by Michelle Hanlon. This is a corollary with space property right. If some places are off limits, it implies that most others are not.

Panera is the latest to discover that giving away free stuff isn’t a sustainable business model.

RIP to that rarest of birds: An honest and non-corrupt Democrat.
Space Solar Power
I wonder how serious this Chinese plan is? It looks like a traditional GEO concept. They have an advantage over us for this, in that they won’t have envirowackos to stop them.
NASA’s Return-To-The-Moon Plans
Eric Berger has the details. It’s clearly an effort to continue to justify the Gateway, which in turn has become required to justify the Shelby Launch System. If/when Starship lands on the moon, or even orbits it, all of this will be moot.
How Dumb Is AOC?
I think she pegs the meter. As Sarah Hoyt notes, blondes are telling jokes about her.

The rebirth of socialism: Where it came from, and how to stop it.
[Late-morning update]
I suspect that AOC will be successfully primaried after this latest jamming of both feet in her mouth. She just cost her constituents a lot of jobs.
[Noon update]
The worms are starting to turn on her.

Beware the metastasis of the Deep State.
People need to go to jail over this. No one elected any of them.

L. Neil Smith has a modest proposal on Second Amendment rights.
Careful With Your Drafts
This story reminds me of about thirty years ago, when I was pulling an all-nighter at Rockwell to finish a major deliverable to the Air Force on a study contract on launch systems. PCs were a relatively new thing in the workplace then (at least that one–I’d been one of the forcing functions to get them), and I accidentally munged a file on a floppy, apparently the only copy of it. Fortunately, I had a printout of the pages that I could insert into the document, but it had one section in it that contained the phrase “[Go ask [name of one of my colleagues]].” There was no way I was going to retype the whole thing — I had too much else to do to finish it, and I ended up just inserting the page as is (in a document of several hundred pages). I figured it would be an interesting test to see if anyone actually read these things. I never heard a word from the Air Force about it.
