Maybe they'll find life on Mars and the Lochness Monster while there.

Addendum: it will play and send back recorded radio waves to Earth when on the near side of the moon, so it's a cycle of scoop-n-spew.

It will probably only listen when on the far side and wait out the rest.

Aliens should play some Pink Floyd to mess with us.

Human behavior is unpredictable under such circumstances. The instinct may be to cover it up.

there is a mechanical block requiring you to lift the switches before operating them.

I thought some believe the lift-lock was missing on some planes due to a factory snafu or something. Boeing sent a bulletin out about it, but it was perhaps ignored.

Illegals are the New Jews for bigots like you

Yes because the disaster response by the feds pre Trump was brilliant. Just ask North Carolina, or the folks in Florida who were BY POLICY ignored because they had a Trump sign in their yard?

Since hair splitting is clearly your thing, the 1938 introduction of Superman has Clark Kent at age about 34.

That would put his adoption around 1902 or earlier, when the extant rules would clearly have made his adoption fully legal and him a citizen.

I guess that explains how we got a mandated one size fits all COVID vaccine policy.

Yip, most the "winning" in the USA trickles up, while N. Europe has better safety nets & health, better college funding, and more vacation.

Both Denmark and France are socialist-leaning countries. I didn't think the gov't would get away with increasing the retirement age.

Right-wing parties have been winning in EU of late, often fueled by anti-Muslim boogymanning, perhaps borrowing rhetoric from our Tinted One by exaggerating and highlighting crime or terrorist events*. I wonder when the anti-Muslim fervor eventually dies down if the leftist parties will adjust the retirement age back down.

* EU desperately need immigrants to keep their population from declining too quickly. They should help Muslims assimilate instead of demonizing them by cherry-picking events.

Well, yes ... you are going to be replaced, in the long run, by those you allow to live among you who have more children than you.

That's just ... math. (Or "science" if you prefer.)

Now, if you'd rather that be done by the feisty followers of a certain Mo, well, okay ... but I don't think you are going to like that culture or politics either.
