I read it over 40 years ago, before I developed an allergy to Heinlein’s libertarian streak.
he does have some interesting ideas about ...civic equity.
but i was more interested in the M.I. suits. i wanted one so bad...i guess i just wanted to be iron man, but get to kill a lot of alien bugs too

what a load of horseshit...follow our religious dogma or you can't interview our banana republic leader, it would make him look bad at home where we're doing really stupid hateful shit to women right now...
she should have agreed to wear it, then removed it the second the cameras started...let him walk off the set and have to explain why
You have to remember, their men go wild with lust if they see a woman without a scarf.

There's another planet in our solar system that's been identified by rotations of our planets not exactly in proper rotation. It's gravity is pulling all planets albeit small but noticeable. Are you familiar with this and how long do you think it will take to identify this mystery planet?

Well, there goes the weekend!

Nova Scotia Fire/Emergency/Info
September 19 at 1:09 PM ·
Hurricane Fiona is expected to impact the Maritime provinces Friday and through the weekend - the most severe conditions are expected over Nova Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador.
Every six hours, hurricane Fiona is projected to track closer and closer to the province.
Even if Fiona doesn’t make landfall on Nova Scotia, a cold front from the Pacific is expected to pull Fiona even closer to Nova Scotia.
If Fiona merges with this cold front, we can expect her to intensify even more before arriving, produce more rain and create a larger wind field nearing/ranging 1000 square kilometres. That means Fiona will become “post-tropical.”
Exact rainfall amounts, wind speed and wind direction remain unknown at this time. However, gusts of 150km/h or greater are not off the table - and rainfall totals in excess of 150mm are possible.
Fiona is expected to arrive as a weak category 3 hurricane, or a strong category 2 hurricane.
If this trend continues, this could be the strongest hurricane Nova Scotia has seen in history.
Storm surge will be a major threat, 30-40ft waves over some areas of Nova Scotia.
We urge residents to monitor closely.
