Yeah, that was a bad month for Brevardians on so many levels. Multiple hurricanes ripped us a new one.
My beloved maternal grandpa passed as Frances tore through. It was quite the feat that all eight of his kids and their families managed to assemble and have a proper service between storms.

20 years ago today, Hurricane Frances did a number on east-central Florida. #NASA #KSC suffered significant damage, including about 800 panels blown off the Vehicle Assembly Building, and the building where the Shuttle orbiter tiles were manufactured.
This is NASA raw footage from after Frances left.

Back-peddling MFer must not think that the OWS/BLM/Anons remember when he suddenly went dark for an inordinate length of time in the 2010s. This was during the period when the alphabet agencies were snatching activists off the streets ("V&"/vanned). That's when many believe he initially sold out. I'mma STFU now. 🤬
Hmmm. Coincidence perhaps, but wondering if this was a user who liked a reply several hours ago on their last toot made back in June. 🤔
A catbird in a crow costume maybe? 🤔

when peeps talk about 'woke' being in direct opposition to merit, let me say this:
if we lived in a meritocracy, there would be a helluva lot of white men in leadership, positions of power, decision making roles who would receive a wake up call about their mediocrity & there would be more women, peeps of colour, peeps w/ disabilities moved to the top based on their qualifications, competence, & intelligence.
woke is not in contradiction to merit based employment. it's a conduit to it.
Unless the station has gone terribly downhill since I was but a wee Capitol Beltway brat, WETA is too classy to host such an odious embarrassment.
"Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That parrot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged squawk."
Well aware of the cause & effect. It's been a constant for decades before rebranding, when public and private education were separate entities divided primarily by economic demographics. Rich families could afford to send their kids to private schools. Public schools were a given for the rest of us.
My inner child wants to know if child aliens exist, and if they like some of the same things that human children enjoy.

My actual inner child. 😄
1. Santa reaching everyone in 24 hours
2. How to make owning a pony affordable
3. How to live with a pony indoors
4. How to scare tall people
5. How to convince parents a pony makes life better for everyone

Your inner child gets all the funding required for any science research. What are we investigating? #CosoQuestions
