@@davidmurphy1207 Either that or some braindead morons would take offense to one of their news stories and try to shut them down for being something-ist. Y'know, cause we live in a time where satirical jokes can get someone imprisoned if its too offensive.

I heard “the challenger memorial” and was forced to check how old this video was to see if it was a joke about how slow Congress is (like the internet explorer memes), or if this is an old video…. I declare it to be “both” now.

Human progress is amazing. What was science fiction just 13 years ago, is now a reality. The Onion is my favorite scifi!

no it should be changed to say Challenger Memorial Statue Act of 2023 in the bill title so its more up-to-date and modern
