Heads Up - 13MAR Lunar Eclipse
« on: February 24, 2025, 11:47:00 AM »
Total lunar eclipse on 13MAR. Visible to everybody in freedomland. Should be a good time of the year for my AO. Not guaranteed, but less likely to be overcast.

Only visible in areas that voted for Trump, just like the 2018 solar eclipse was primarily visible in MAGA country.

MAGA unto others as you would have them MAGA unto you!

I was fishing for a humorous way the lefties could blame  it on Trump, but K Framw kinda covered it all.  After all,Trump is cutting everything else...

Ben, where is this "Freedomland" of which you speak?   If I say it three times will it pop into existence?

You've always been in Freedomland, Dorterry!

You just have to rack your AR-15 three times and say "This is MAGA country!"

This is the way. Doing the Musk salute three times is an acceptable alternative.

Hadda look up Musk Salute.  I swear, some uh them "lefties" actually try to look stupid.

That's a normal "speechifyin'" gesture of emphasis, disunirregardless of the speaker's actual orientation.  Calling it a Nazi Salute indicates how brainlocked most of "leftists'" perceptions are, in my lowercased opinion.   As opposed to my Uppercased Opinion, where I use the same Gesture.

   

(^ Billy Graham, but not the best example.)

   

(^ Another Nazi.)

   

( 'Nuff said.  Wouldn't want to destroy "lefties'" preconceived notions.)

Typical APS thread drift - from lunar eclipse to nazis!
Trump won in 2016. And again in 2024. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

Frankly, I regard that characteristic of APS as one of its most attractive features.  It proves that we are not brainlocked.

And to my mind, being "scatterbrained" was always a good indicator of facile neural connections in one's brain.  But like with everything else, "balance" is everything.

The Moon and Nazis.

The connection is known and strong.

Oh, Hitler's use of astrology tickled my brain for a second, but I let it go.

Most amazing thing about that movie is that they made a sequel.

That's not that surprising considering that we're now up to what, Sharknado 23?
