I was wondering if this would happen. Now I know. 😒

I hate this comic. Too real. 😭

Who dis?

Haha! This was a most unexpected response. 😂

Now excuse me while I scour the interwebs for images of the majestic animal crackers. I think I have an idea of how we might change the course of world events with them.

How dare you. This should have a NSFW tag.

Premium or off-brand animal crackers?

Purple stuff is Jesus juice.

I want that purple stuff.

sighs yes… this.

ignorance is bliss being set on effing fire!

M’kay, Mr. Pope. Nothing ironic or hypocritical about this statement at all…

I did some reading on this. Looks like the UN 1967 Outer Space Treaty and the 1972 Liability Convention define the “launching state” as being liable for damage caused by space objects, both on Earth and in outer space. Off the latter:

In 1978, the crash of the nuclear-powered Soviet satellite Kosmos 954 in Canadian territory led to the only claim filed under the convention.

Anyway, for the US, the FAA requires companies to carry liability insurance for potential damages caused by their launches. U.S. law caps the company’s liability. The government may cover damages exceeding this cap, but only up to a certain amount.

Basically, SpaceX would likely be responsible for initial claims up to their insurance limits. Beyond that, the U.S. government would step in. Considering how wealthy Mr Musk is, I don’t think taxpayers should be paying a dime to clean a his mess… but the US government is contracting SpaceX.

Why would the taxpayers be liable?

But to what end? Would SpaceX be found liable for anything? Would any penalty matter?

Only if they are snakes.

More than 120,000 when including death from disease and malnutrition (see https://truthout.org/articles/us-health-workers-back-from-gaza-estimate-death-toll-is-at-least-119000/)

I see. Very unfortunate. Racism is complicated and more deeply rooted the most will realize and accept. What he said isn’t okay and never will be. I hope he’s grown since then and made amends for his mistakes.

Why no Kramer?
