Always has been.
A rat done bit my sister Nell
With whitey on the moon
Her face and arms began to swell
And whitey's on the moon
I can't pay no doctor bills
But whitey's on the moon
Ten years from now I'll be payin' still
While whitey's on the moon
The man just upped my rent last night
Cause whitey's on the moon
No hot water, no toilets, no lights
But whitey's on the moon
I wonder why he's upping me?
Cause whitey's on the moon?
Well I was already giving him fifty a week
With whitey on the moon
Taxes taking my whole damn check
Junkies making me a nervous wreck
The price of food is going up
And as if all that shit wasn't enough:
A rat done bit my sister Nell
With whitey on the moon
Her face and arm began to swell
And whitey's on the moon
Was all that money I made last year
For whitey on the moon?
How come I ain't got no money here?
Hmm! Whitey's on the moon
Y'know I just 'bout had my fill
Of whitey on the moon
I think I'll send these doctor bills
Airmail special
To whitey on the moon.

Honestly I don't mind... as long as they stay there.
They're planning to come back 😑
Well plans.... Don't always go.... According to plan...
If rich people want to pay millions to die, I know a great deal on a submarine trip...
Ooooffff

The best comment yet in this post.
On a brighter note, I'm pretty sure Katy Perry's boobs would look absolutely fantastic in zero gravity.
Breast tissue gets more swollen in microgravity because there's less down in your legs.
🤷 I'm a big space and boobs fan.
You missed the chance for making it a dad joke "on a lighter note" "in zero gravity."
You know, because things weigh less at suborbital heights.
...I'll show myself out.
strong Elysium vibes
Fuck these cunts.
You wish
Hopefully goes like the challenger
I hope nothing bad happens...
Hope it explodes.
I miss these links! Loved them so much before coming over from The Borg to Lemmy. Thank you.
Hope they have a stellar takeoff

I hope it blows up
