1. China rocket?

Who wrote this, trump? How about the Chinese rocket? Maybe I'm a little sensitive, but trump-speak has Asian people getting attacked.

9. Kim Sherrell wrote the tweet; the Independent (UK) wrote the article

Kim Sherrell is the founder of ARTWALK and a producer at INTERTHEORY known for DIG TWO GRAVES (Netflix) and STAFF ROOM (Comedy Central UK).

Ms. Sherrell holds a master’s degree in Arts & Letters from Southern Oregon University and has taught courses in art, graphic design, film production and animation.

You'd have thought that degree and a teaching position would have encouraged good grammar. Oh well. As for the Independent, it's most likely an anonymous sub-editor who wrote the headline.

4. Here I've been imagining the west might be more in (extremely remote) danger,

but apparently the west and midwest are out of it, while some possible reentry points cross over southern and east coast states. Also very remote of course. Just to be extra cautious in case fragments break apart over our part of the nation, though, we'll sleep under our bed tonight, at least early on.

Yes, I heard "China rocket", and it made me want to go punch the nearest asian person.

If they had but said "Chinese rocket instead, I would have thought "Oh, I'm not supposed to attack asians this time? Got it!"

Like most DU threads it would seem, reading DUmmie posts risks lowering your IQ by at least 10 points.

Remember how they mocked the Space Force President Trump when he rolled it out in 2018...?

Much as DUpipo would love to pin the impending rocket booster crash on the US and Trump, it was launched by the Chinese government, and Xi did it.

Unless I missed it ...

It hasn't crashed yet, has it?

Have been barfing up this morning watching/listening to Chris Wallace & now Chuck Todd's "Meet The (lying) Press."

Really just want to hear Fauci himself, lie his derriere off!

they've also been spending their days wishing it would crash on Trump's property and end him. It's a pretty sick bunch for sure

22. Someone got through to the Independent - they've changed to "Chinese rocket" (nt)

God only knows how many asian lives were saved.

See what happens when a Country doesn't develop their own technology? 

It's way too early in China's space-program for an orbital-blunder like this.  Embarrassing.  They have 10-or-11 more launches scheduled.  They detached the booster without 'turning-off' the gyroscopes.  It tried to achieve its own orbit with zero power.

Yeah, but you gotta give them credit for excelling in spreading a deadly virus and creating a global pandemic
