My son has left McLaren after 9 years and he starts at Astra on the 28th Feb. :)

His job is to refine telemetry and launch systems.
If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Sort of. His job is to automate the telemetry systems which is one of the things he did at McLaren as a system engineer.

I thought this was going to be a joke about a Trump supporter.

Are there still any left? All posts the I see about Trump on social media nowadays are from liberals. It seems to me that they miss Trump more than the conservatives.
We don't miss Trump.

And, he never left. He is not in the White House, hallelujah, but he is still slithering around in the Garden.

They ought to grow abnormally large venus fly traps in the white house garden that are specifically for Donald Trump.  :snicker1:

Walkthroughs, Jacksepticeye, Steph0Sims, Elvis the Alien, Timmy's Takeout, Boffy, and unboxing videos on YouTube make me cheerful even though I despise how it has become a dehumanizing platform shadowbanning honest journalists in favor of cut-throat elites. Demonitization is censorship to benefit YouTube's biased advertisements that give off an unrealistically false sense of security. What makes me cheerful is the people trying to fight against this dehumanization of content creators.

Listening to fun music on the Pandora radio app makes me cheerful.

Experimenting makes me cheerful when I am trying new things.

Having a nap or sleeping will make me feel cheer because it lets my mind wonder. I like dreaming about flying, swimming, travelling to different planets, being god, and so forth without worrying about my flawed human nature that has limitations.

Forget the flowers, they need to let a bunch of Honey badgers run free all over the White House lawn.

Are you asking me why I don't tell everyone what I really think?

The last time I did that, it didn't go too well.


:secrets1: I defended rap music.

:grin:

But I like it here, for some strange reason.
