    If everyone just ignored them, then their attention-seeking stunts would be meaningless.

      You are right, but in a competitive society all criticism will be labelled as envy of the wealthy and only considered if it comes from the same social class, but to reach the same social class a person changes and becomes similar to other wealthy people.

      Anyways not all elite is the same since some just inherit and mantain some ethical values because of that, but they are a minority inside of a minority.

    Future “tourism” flights above the Kharman line should be filled with fireworks that are set off at apogee. (Inside the cabin) edit 2: (and also inside the LOX tanks)

        I just don’t get nail fashion for the last 10-15 years. Fake nails just look SO OBVIOUSLY FAKE and inhuman and thick and nasty like they have some kind of fungus. It’s just so ugly, god. I hate it. They just sit on top of the finger like some slug.

        Nah, when my woman has long, natural nails, well kept nails, nicely shaped, with a little bit of dark red nail polish or just clear polish, and you can tell the nails are natural and thin like a human and not a bird’s talon, …

        … I’m in love. Love me some natural. Heck, skip the polish if you like. And they don’t even need to be too long. I don’t mind a lady that does some manual work.

        Just fuck right the heck off with these fake ass tiny diving boards people plaster onto the edges of their hands.

    I can’t see any other use for the money that was spent on this - we can all come together in harmony and peace now that women have finally flown into low earth orbit. /s

    I’d rather she release some space meme instagram thread than inflict another album on the earthbound.

      PS my guess about the intense look is because she is experiencing “zero-G”, which allegedly feels identical to a free fall drop or that moment you crest a hill at speed and your stomach feels funny. I would probably be very uncomfortable and would struggle to appear serene or at peace while my stomach is floating inside my body

    I don’t actually mind her leading with positivity. Is it superficial? Sure. But I’m okay with the good vibes.

      This positivity produced 15 tons of CO2. 10 seconds at the price of 4 years of normal life on earth. Just for Instagram photos.

      I do. Toxic positivity is just about as bad as being an outright asshole in my opinion.

      I get that nobody likes to cope with negative emotions, negative things happening in reality, or possible negative outcomes from our actions (or inaction) but these things are a part of life and can serve as a reinforcement mechanism to help us fix things.

      Toxicly positive people keep insisting that everything is going to work out fine and sing a little song while the ship sinks. I’d rather be on board with folks that understand negative outcomes are possible or even likely, if in fact they are.

      The heart hands bullshit of toxic positivity is terrible in good times and nearly intolerable when everything is in crisis.
