good lord. damn. wow. whoa. holy cow.

I thought this was gonna be a wash when I got out of the house and saw the cloud cover. I was halfway considering pivoting to a long lens pad shot and I am SO glad I didn't.

THERE'S FUCKING ROCKET LAUNCH GODRAYS IN THIS LOOK AT THAT HOLY SHIT

AND THE FULL MOON BATHING THE CLOUDS IN LIGHT

I also got to share the experience with a school group of elementary schoolers from eastern NC who I learned are going to have their project sent to the ISS on November, and that makes tonight all the sweeter. I sent them this photo before I even sent it to y'all here, because that's so rad. told the chaperones and staff to get back in touch after their stuff launches and I'd get them whatever picture I get of that launch as well.

this one fuckin ruled, holy shit.

I've also immediately put this one up for viewing and purchase on my photo site. if you saw my post on my personal today, you'd probably be aware that I'd appreciate a sale or two now more than ever, I'm in a real tight financial spot, so if this one (or anything else on there!) speaks to you, I'd say go for it.

see y'all when I'm done with the bike ride home, and maybe after I ride this good mood a little longer.

Why are they always going to the archive.org archive of the taken-down github repository and downloading the latest release?

Why are they always checking out books from their local library or the internet archive library, downloading the acsm file, and then doing

cd Downloads
chmod +x ./knock-1.3.1-x86_64-linux
./knock-1.3.1-x86_64-linux   whatever_cool_book.acsm

and then immediately returning the eBook to the library so other library patrons can enjoy the eBook????

Why are the hottest girls even hypothetically then loading the DRM-stripped ePub into their Nintendo DS emulator with their favorite homebrew ePub reader because there are no good ePub readers on linux??????? ;-;

And then why are the nerdiest among them always downloading the archived source code and building it from source with nix???

I just really don't get women anymore
