@Nonya_Bidniss @sundogplanets No one is stopping us. (please change that)
@Epic_Null @Nonya_Bidniss @sundogplanets Exactly this.
Epstein kiddie-fuckers get away with it because no one stops them.
Space-destroying tech-bros get away with it because no one stops them.
Why is that?

Reflect Orbital wants to destroy the night sky to deliver "sunlight as a service". SpaceX wants to destroy Low Earth Orbit to launch one million "AI datacentres"
The only way to formally protest these two ideas is to file a comment with the US FCC, which is horribly complicated, but the American Astronomical Society has detailed instructions posted here: https://aas.org/posts/advocacy/2026/02/how-submit-comments-satellite-applications-fcc
Comments due March 6 for SpaceX and March 9 for Reflect Orbital. Write! Write! Write!
At first I had read the company's name as Rectal Orbit.

@sundogplanets that sounds like something that would’ve sounded so far-fetched it’s cartoonish if it was a thing in a scifi story a few years ago. It sounds like something that would still be if it appeared in a scifi story today. I hate this timeline. Dystopian media should not be an instruction manual.
@enby_of_the_apocalypse @sundogplanets yeah
A giant mirror for “sunlight as a service” is one of those things that sounds great if you’re an executive who likes science fiction and has been hot boxing Silicon Valley narratives for the last twenty years.
But to anyone who reads science fiction and actually gets the underlying themes rather than just “cool tech bro”, the only way I can describe this is a horrifying plan straight out of an Austin Powers movie.

@enby_of_the_apocalypse @sundogplanets in fact, oh gods, this bears great similarity to “Who Shot Mr Burns” from the Simpsons.
That show was meant to be a joke, people! A joke!

@sundogplanets Maybe @georgetakei is also interested in our night sky and could help to spread this important information?

@grumble209 @Nonya_Bidniss @sundogplanets Systemic issues that started well before my birth and have proven to take shape in ways completely unlike my perception multiple times.

@mms I spend less time in the toilet than in the kitchen. Does it mean that what I produce in the toilet is better than what I produce in the kitchen?

@_elena ergh, I hope you're okay regardless. It's 100% not fun to receive these things.

@sturmsucht I would have expected nothing less 😂

@_elena the amount of "actually" reply guys is insane.

@donamasta some people reported it may be a problem with ad blockers. Even I cannot play it in my browser Vivaldi 🤷♀️ now, it would have never been my choice to run ads on it... and I'm so curious what they may be. Of course I'm not touching a penny
