    1st time in the lion kingdom's lifetime when the view of the moon also included humans traveling between here & there.  This is how it's always going to be as more & more humans travel to the moon.   The view we knew all our lives of the moon as a lifeless place is going away. Lions thought the moon program was a joke when Trump unveiled it in 2017. It was just a political stunt to have a moon landing during his 4 year term, with no chance of happening in time. Who knew a trip around the moon would actually happen & his re-election would line up with it, as if the 4 intervening years were all planned.      Everyone who ever lived is looking mighty small in the window.  Pondered if they're using any cameras better than a phone at all.   2 more shots on the night before the flyby.  These shots won't be possible after the highrises are finished.  Another shot from near the path might still be possible.  Bein...

   Surprised the marriage rate was as sky high as shown, but this was specifically the city proper & counting gays.  Typically, we're told it's 30% & lower for men who aren't a prime candidate doctor/lawyer/executive.  For low status male employees, dating was not something anyone did.  We see a spike in divorces at age 40 & again at age 55 for men, owing to promiscuity in that group while the women stay committed to a single partner until age 60.    Beef + minced onion + yellow death. Beef meatballs meet all the lion kingdom's beef needs without the price of ground beef.  New burger place opened next to Targ & when the smell hits the mane, it's a beef emergency.   The lion kingdom's last hope  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   As bad as things are, there's apparently not much left of the latest ayatollah. https://themedialine.org...

 The lion kingdom began All Is Lost after running out of gootube videos to watch.       Pondered how he ran into a navigational hazard with enough force to breech the hull, while he was sleeping.  He would have had to be going pretty fast, relative to a drifting container & it would have more likely hit the bow.  A bow strike might have been fatal.  According to the internet, it's not safe to sleep in the open ocean.  You need to watch for other boats or have radar at minimum.  Of course, another container could have been just below the water.    It was actually a fiberglass hull.  It was also shown that the container had nothing of value that could have helped him survive.  If the container had a big hole, it should have already sunk though.  At least the breech was above the waterline.    Spoiler: the repair actually held until the deck got breached in another spot & overturned in a storm....

 Out of a desire for more mane creatures, the Dark Crystal prequel series ended up on the hard drive.   The head mane creature didn't arrive until episode 4,  19:36.  Mane creatures now have the power to teleport.  They look more assertive.  Skimming though it, it seems to be highly millennialized.  The edginess of the 80's version is gone.  Dialog is canned & recycled.   The muppet show style flapping motion is gone, probably because they had better robotics.  Facial expressions were richer than the movie.       Mane creature came back in episode 6.        Then another mane creature shows up in episode 7, 7:32.  They're in every episode from then on, but only 2 are in this series.  They now coexist with the vulture creatures in different hideouts instead of a mane creature congregation.  It seems a mane creature must die in every story arc, in order to save someone from a vultur...

   Lesbian hottie alert.  All the good ones are lesbians.     Extra salty in the last month ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   https://www.nbcnews.com/world/europe/kitkat-candy-bars-stolen-en-route-italy-poland-nestle-says-rcna265621?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us   Nothing stops The Mane.       Ayatollah Khamani handed the lion kingdom its ass today, in 92F.  It was pretty hot for the speeds, but the glucose issue also struck again.  Glucose management is becoming a big deal.  The next step might be measuring blood glucose when the long efforts fall over.  A similar event happened after previously feeding the mane ice cream during a long effort in heat.  Ice cream, long efforts & heat are the pattern.  It previously was blamed on lactose intolerance blocking fluid uptake & previously assumed to be an electrolyte shortage...
