What’s Up: April 2025 Skywatching Tips from NASA [NASA]
What’s up, everybody! It’s Monday April 14th, 2025. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. Many of you were able to watch WARFARE over the weekend. How was it? Did you like it? I heard a lot of great reviews. I’ll do my best to watch it this weekend if possible. We are about a month away from my birthday, which means JUSTICE in concert in SF, and the release of JDM the videogame for Steam on PC. As always, Trump is going rampant and I disagree with his work, if you’d like to know what spiel I’d like to say, just refer to first and foremost Michael Moore, Keith Olbermann, Mehdi Hasan, Jon Stewart, John Oliver, Christiane Amanpour, Erin Burnett, Anderson Cooper, Fareed Zakaria and of course, Bill Maher whom, as you all know, does not believe in God, and if we do not remove Trump asap, surely we understand his point of view. Check out the Main Justice podcast from MSNBC. Save us, Optimus Prime. #TrumpNightmareSeason2
