I bet those women working in Amazon fulfilment centers will be inspired by this as they work with a full bladder for fear of losing their jobs if they take too many bathroom breaks.
Katy Perry was in space longer than those women are allowed to leave for piss breaks. Inspiring! /s
The first ‘female-only crew’ in space is technically Valentina Tereshkova (she went alone). Not these women.
Evil Russian Communist so she doesn’t count
Communists aren’t evil. That stinks of red scare propaganda. Though apparently she did vote for the Ukrainian invasion, which sucks. And no, that doesn’t devalue the achievements of the Soviet Space program. It does count.
Also she actually had to do some work. Where’s the fun in that?

Oops, all ads
she went with jeff bozo’s fiance. they basically polluted the fuck out the planet for no gain other than the egos of few ultra wealthy twats.
very inspiring to anyone who has $500,000 to ride a dick-shaped rocket to the outter atmoshphere instead of going to disney landDisney has increased their prices so much, that only rich people can afford it anymore. The really rich pay for private tours and special access. So what do they have to do to show that they are even better than the “average” rich person?
Go to space.
I hope this becomes the new staus symbol of the wealthy, and they start shooting up larger and larger tourist rockets, until one explodes and wipes out 100 Sociopathic Oligarchs at once.
Are you guy caring after pollution now after encouraging people to burn electric cars for months
Really now
no and any sane person should agree with you. anyone who damages a random person car just because its brand is psychopathic and evil pos. I never even scratch someone’s else door in tiny parking lots because I wouldn’t like it to happen to me. You remember when conservatives boycotted the shit out of budlight and started shooting it and wasting it? Yeah that’s stupid too. I get what the boycotts accomplish but wasting something you already have is a negative. now imagine if they went out and destroyed/shoot someone’s else beers who just bought it in his shopping cart? scummy hurtful shit no sane person disagrees
Celebrating 5 women giggling as they ride around in a rich man’s vehicle while the rest of the world burns is the perfect 2025 moment. I’m reeling from the fact that their “motto” was “taking up space!”

Trump is over 35 and a citizen. He’s qualified. I know you want a female president just to have one.
Kamala was installed without a primary, which I know isn’t necessary per the DNC rules, but apparently that mattered. And after admitting Biden isn’t fit to run while Biden himself was determined to run, wasn’t a good look.
DNC fucked your party over. It was a shit show for everyone. We’re ready for the RIGHT female president. Not just a president just because they are female.
May I add, that Tulsi lasted longer in the 2020 primary than Kamala. What if it was Tulsi vs Trump? That would have been interesting to watch. (2020)
Perhaps the DNC will be better prepared in 2028 with a viable candidate.

I gotta ask the “America is too misogynistic to elect a woman” crowd how Tammy Baldwin, Gretchen Witmer, Kristen Sinema, and Jodi Ernst were winning all those Trump states.
Hell, imagine if Witmer had run in the 2024 Dem Primary. She was a solid contender and she clearly has a reputation and platform that Midwesterners vibe with. She’s not a fringe radical BernieBro, so Wall Street can stomach her. But she’s also not a lightning rod like Hillary.
If you don’t like Witmer, consider that Elizabeth Warren and Amy Klobacher both significantly outperformed Harris during the 2020 primary.
All of them were fundamentally stronger candidates. But none of them were “in line” thanks to the whims of the 2020 Biden VP selection committee.
Crazy that Biden ran virtually unchallenged, then dumped the whole campaign in Harris’s lap after a bad debate performance.
I’m sure anyone but Harris, Clinton and Biden would’ve sufficed. I would have voted for Ernst, always thought military experience should be a prerequisite for presidency to thin out the billionaires.

Glances nervously at Tulsi Gabbard and Marianna Williamson
Well, maybe…
always thought military experience should be a prerequisite for presidency to thin out the billionaires
The rich guy vanity campaigns are certainly annoying. But I see an immediate moral hazard in letting the military have a monopoly on presidential candidates.
And lots of military guys - Micheal Flynn, David Paetreus, Pete Hegseth - are demonstrably fucking awful. Idk if you improve the field this way.
Indeed it’s like they can’t even acknowledge it’s already proven that voters don’t give a shit if the candidate is a woman or not. We have research and studies on that…
If there is complain, that ain’t the one
It’s funny you think there will be a 2028 election.
The spectacle of election isn’t going away any time soon.
I found that this candidate’s campaign made a mistake. See? They jaywalked to reach their stage for a rally.
Now, raise your hand if you actually find that mistake to be important. That is an important and personal decision. By any normal standards, every candidate in every election has made mistakes. Just that the mistakes of the opponent were rape, insurrection, and repeated business failures.
Campaigns are short in some other countries; people aren’t often helped by getting signals about someone 8 months before elections.
In short, I accept basic adult criticism of Kamala, but not nearly enough to forgive people who voted against her. Yes, AIPAC has staggering influence in US politics, and sadly we couldn’t fix that with an election.
The right candidate for the DMC probably ain’t the candidate for you and me

Serious question: I Blue Origin actually doing anything else but celebrity joy-rides? If not, this has to be the most grotesque waste of resources I can think of.
They haven’t contributed to spaceflight advancement in truly innovative ways. At least SpaceX manages to catch some of their rockets when falling back to Earth. Blue Origin’s only claim to fame is that it’s a slightly more advanced vomit comet, which we’ve had for decades at this point.
vomit comet
I’m gonna pirate this.
It’s the old nickname for an airplane that basically flies up high, then nosedives for a while. They originally set it up so astronauts could train in free-fall (since they’re, y’know, falling for a few minutes), though it seems like you can just hire them for whatever now. OK Go did a music video featuring a ride: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWGJA9i18Co
They also filmed some of the zero-g scenes for Apollo 13 in the Vomit Comet.
It’s a bucket list item of mine to fly on and folks reaction to the name is never not funny
Their first orbital rocket, New Glenn, had its inaugural flight earlier this year. IIRC, it performed rather well in the “launch to orbit” aspect, but they lost the booster as it was coming back to land on a drone ship. It’ll take them time to iron out the kinks, but as long as they don’t scrap the project, I don’t see why it couldn’t become a contender in heavy lift.

So in about 30 years at their current peace?
Suppose we’ll see. Not unusual to have a long gap between the early launches, lots of data to analyze for the first time. Was 8 months between the first and second launch of Ariane 6, for example.
At this point they seem like joy rides. To start I remember them claiming they were using the data from New Shepard to learn how to best control and land the much larger and more expensive New Glenn rocket, which made sense. It’s not like SpaceX is going to share how they manage to nail the landings so repeatedly, it’s the secret to their success.
Of course, they want Women In Space to be billboards, pretty things to look at and nothing more. Women are for procreation and decoration in their world.
What would Katy Perry going to space even inspire girls to do? Get popular writing queer-bait songs and release mediocre pop albums? Become a dark horse? Look at that girls, if you can write mid-tier songs and wear skimpy outfits you too someday can become a passenger on a billionaire’s cock rocket!
I encourage anyone who doesn’t already know who Max Martin is, to google him. He is a sweedish producer and songwriter. He has written a staggering amount of pop hits from 2000 on and a massive chunk of Katy Perry’s most well known songs. This girl boss owes her success to a man.

for 10 full minutes, no less
It’s just more about letting your entire career be dictated by men even down to the “queerbait” as a very generic pop diva that’s truly uninspiring to women (and everyone in general if I’m honest). She’s a plant and it’s beyond obvious.
Which is why it makes it all so cringe.
Sounds like a fun ride, but there was no orbit, nor were they flying the ship. I feel more inspired by the women who have went into orbit far above the Karman line and have flown spacecraft.
They also removed the comic they hosted about women astronauts…
Can you post it here?

Great, now we’ll get shitty pop music based on "4 minutes in space"™
I’ve looked back at the Earth, it’s quite a view.
A new height for me to look down on you,
I’m the Queen of space and you are a peasant.
Stuck to the ground, it’s so unpleasant.I’ve been to space and I’m better than you,
I’ve been to space and I’m better than you,
I’ve been to space and I’m better than you,
I’ve been to space and I’m better than you.“I’ve been to space and fucked Legolas too.”
And also a MAGA Rapist.
written by 50 producers, focus tested over 100 iterations, lip synced to when “performed” live, and scores a bajillion dollars.
And people hate AI for some reason. Obviously this shit will be overflowing with "SoulTM "
Pop music is ai v0
Corporations are slow AI that runs on people and paper. Not my original take - it was a term even before the LLM bubble.
I don’t understand why Katy Perry. Janelle Monáe has songs about space, has talked about wanting to go to space, and is a competent musician. If you are doing this stunt, why do you want the “artist” behind E.T.?
It feels like a weird attempt to do some fake “girl power” feminism to distract from the fact that NASA is seriously purging female employees, probably going to retool Artemis to not focus on female astronauts as part of this anti-DEI program - while at the same time this kind of news story puts the reactionary chodes into overdrive, because this is presented as a “feminist” action. (And like no - this is tourism. It’s almost gross to brag about having an “all female crew” when this is just a tourist stunt. If you wanted to do a badass “first all female crew since the Soviets!” thing, then maybe show off women doing science?)
Like it’s Bezos wife, and a couple of women with industry credentials. The engineers I met who were working on Psyche would deserve that opportunity and might benefit from it - this is no different than someone “climbing Everest” on the back of a Sherpa.
Two things can be shit at the same time. Still more human input than suno ai slop
not really. I’d prefer listening to Pho Que by dadabots over any manufactured pop stuff anyday.
Maybe I joined at a bad time but this shit is probably the worst amalgamation of sounds I heard since middle school.
There is currently no pop song worse than this shit.
No, it’s meant to be like that. It’s mathcore mixed with saxophones and smooth jazz.
It’s an aquired taste for sure, but if you like stuff like that (Shining, estradasphere, john zorn) it’s cool.
EDIT : The idea is that you can make some pretty cool stuff with AI,and if you dislike that example, similar things made without AI will also be stuff you dislike.
EDIT2 :
Maybe I joined at a bad time
thanks for having a bit of leniancy, honestly. Your assessment on it being horrid is a valid opinion to have.
Well I now gave shining a listen and tbh, while it isn’t my jam, it sounds like music.
Pho Queue did not sound experimental to me, it was dissonant. Not in a good way, in an “I don’t know what the fuck im doing” kind of way. Shining sounds good because they know what they are doing. What kind of principles they violate. An AI has no idea what these principles even are.
In the end, we won’t agree here. I think that AI fundamentally lacks the one thing Music has: A miniscule amount of thought. Even the worst pop slop follows certain principles because they just work in some way.
And it will win a Grammy for “Song of the Year.”
We’ve come a long way from that woke song “We Are The World.”
“…Astrology…”
In fairness to Katy Perry, it’s not her fault women at NASA are getting sacked and deleted from history.
or is it? if you contribute to the vapidness of american culture, did you improve our society?
or is it?
No
