This is only if you assume you want to return to earth in any reasonable timeframe

If you wait long enough, all orbits are unstable

The moons orbit isnt decaying in that direction, if you just sat on the moon and waited you'd (given a long enough time frame) actually end up further from the earth than when you started.

Yeah it's kind of cool that we get to live in the single era in Earth's history in which the moon perfectly eclipses the sun.

Nah, the “baristas are bourgeois” thing was coming from legit tankies. The “it’s ableist to expect writers to read” was coming from a very left writer who is a trans man with a disability, who was later doxxed as working for Lockheed Martin, a defense contractor in the US, so there was further discourse on that.

I haven’t seen anybody on the left defending Taytay’s private plane usage, but Twitter is a big place with lots of dumb opinions, so it’s possible that also happened for real.

trans writer posting about how "you have to read to be able to write stories" is ableist, people found out they work for loving Lockheed Martin making baby seeking missiles or whatever.

Private planes have gotta be one of the biggest perks of being super rich, anyone who thinks "oh I would never" is deluding themselves. We should absolutely tax them at like 500% or something though.

Did remind me of this great moment though

I've been on plenty of lovely flights. I'd just never leave the room with the candy wall and sit there waiting for a friend, any friend, to come visit. God why am I so rich but still so alone?
