random can of disappointment.

The Artemis II crew captured an impressive image of the Earth from 41,000 miles away this morning.

I never really thought about it before but busses are one of the safest ways to commute to work I can imagine. I’m not ever worried when I take the train but if I had to pick which I’d feel more safe on it would be the bus.

I used to travel between towns late at night when I was a teenager/young adult woman and it would be straight up cozy and a nice way to end my day.

That really happened, in the US. Only instead of the villain being an evil cartoon posing as a judge, the villain was General Motors and Ford and all the big car companies. They bought public transit lines and dismantled them. They lobbied congress to fund the interstate highway system and they CONTINUE to lobby the us govt to keep trains and public transit from having any money, while making sure the roads get lots of it. They are responsible not only for the dismantling of public transit but also the public's perception that public transit is bad and even dangerous.

this is the Phoenix zoo, she's got plenty of outdoor space 👍

So it's plausible that the Pokémon that normally can't natively be found in Kanto were not originally stored in the PC in Kanto, they were stored by a trainer in their home region but the computer sensed a suitable environment in Kanto and yeeted them there first.

(Which has to suck assuming humanity hasn't spent multiple generations in space. Like clearly this was NOT anyone's first priority and it shouldn't have been but can you imagine finally returning to Paldea ready to reunite with your beloved Happiny and it's not there because it's moved into the wreckage of the SS Anne?)

Thus we can also conclude that for Kanto Pokémon that aren't in the game, such as Goldeen or Beedrill, the environment was, for whatever reason, so fucked that it was beyond Ditto's ability to make a suitable habitat.

But according to the game humanity, with a few exceptions, wouldn't be able to bring their Pokémon to space.

The reason according to the college is that they want to sell the building to fix the school's budget; they also claim the wood tech college has a severe budget deficit, but they've failed to follow through on any promises to try to fix that (including hiring a permanent dean, so the school has someone to advocate for them... which they haven't had in at least a decade).

The reason according to some students & staff is that Seattle College's VP has a grudge against the lead carpentry instructor & has been trying to get her program shut down for years to get rid of her.

Students are trying to make some noise about it, in hopes that the college backs down and they can work towards the long-term fixes Seattle College keeps failing to follow through on.

If you can sign this little petition & share this around, it'd help the school out a ton!

It shows the school they're going to get pushback, which has changed their mind about this in the past.

It would be really cool if we could help get this to 1k!

There are less than 200 students at the wood tech college, so makes a really big impact when anyone else signs and shows that people outside of just students really care about this.
