The pettyness of all this shit is what’s really shocking…
I’m not shocked at all. They literally said exactly what they were going to do and now they are doing it.
Learn to expect the most stupid and evil outcome of any situation from now on and preemptively fight to secure what you deem important in whatever way you can.
First Woman: NASA’s Promise for Humanity
First Woman: Expanding Our Universe
Here is copies of them if anyone is interested.
This person has them in Spanish as well https://sh.itjust.works/comment/17675694
Thank you sir. Duely downloaded and replicated for further distribution.
Cowards.
All of them. Afraid of giving anyone an equal playing field, straight afraid of women. Hold everyone down, insecure little men.
NASA is going down the drain under the new regime. If you’re interested in space exploration, shift your gaze over to the ESA or CNSA.
Soon they will just be pushing women down stairs just for fun. Such MAGAts.
Naw that might cause miscarriages, can’t be having that!
I actually think that’s their preferred method of abortion. That way they can really get out all the anger in one go.
The amount of puss-outs to the fat orange is absolutely boggling
Those were idealistic and aspirational. What we should be.
They can’t cancel the graphic novel that accurately depicts what it’s like being a woman in aerospace.
This anti-DEI measures are completely crazy.
Anti-DEI is just a newfangled way of saying white men only.
NASA is always, and in the first place a military organisation in service of the US regime.
Reaction: mixed.
Why: fruit of a poisoned tree.
Elaboration: you want art promoting good things to be sincere, because if it’s not sincere, then it’s not promoting anything, like Disney’s “kinda diversity-aimed” actions toward Star Wars ; art is sincere when it’s not pushed ; when something is promoted by an agency, it’s pushed, even if those making decisions and those making said art share the idea, the former give the latter an order and make it their job.
Context\apology: I think the same about Soviet propaganda art, it may be promoting something good sometimes, but that effect of hierarchy can be felt ; or a few recent movies made about the Armenian Genocide, all intended as a political message about, well, leaving said process unfinished and thus are not interesting as art ; or about FOSS propaganda with almost no effect, if someone remembers those videos about Linux Mint and those FOSS bloggers like Nixie Pixel, that kinda stuff.
What are you on about?
You come across as having an ugly agenda yourself.
Which specifically would that be? Surely you can explain that if you can evaluate my “agenda” as ugly.
Maybe what I wrote meant literally what I wrote. That an agenda is always ugly. People who want to fix the world via right kinds of propaganda seem to dislike that.
If you think this is bad, imagine what it portends for women astronauts.
If we survive this, we really should switch to a matriarchal society.
I’m not against the idea at all, but there are pletny of women in power at the federal level that are absolute dogshit as well.
Yes, merit is overrated. We should just get more of Giorgia Meloni, Alice Weidel and Marine Le Pen. Clearly Europe is on the right track…
Statistically, women leaders start more wars than men, so a matriarchal society signs us up for more war. The group statistically likely to start less wars is former soldiers, probably because they know the horrors.
Maybe leadership is more “content of character” than a gender issue
I look to a day when people will not be judged by the bits between their legs, but by the content of their character.
That’s the famous quote.
Women being leaders in a patriarchal society will probably behave like leaders in a patriarchal society.
One single woman in charge is not a matriarchy.
I’d love to live in a society where no particular gender held most positions of power or had more legislative influence.
Sure, but if we HAD to have a gender in charge, I’d prefer women.
And after 200 years of matriarchy, people would be saying that women are evil and we should have a patriarchy. Whoever holds the power always ends up oppressing whoever doesn’t.
Yeah, but that’s someone else’s problem as I’ll be long gone by then.
I feel like we’d exchange the Elon Musks of the world for the JK Rowlings of the world, the Ronald Reagans for the Margaret Thatchers, and the Donald Trumps for the Ayn Rands.
Fairer sex my ass
The only reason you don’t think women can be evil is because you’re too used to the idea of women as damsels to be rescued, too childish to be a threat to anyone. This is because the patriarchy hates the idea that a woman can be competent moreso than a man, even in acts of evil.
Yupes, good old “benevolent” sexism.
Prejudice, just like the Far-Right, just with different “superior” and “inferior” groups.
Historically the best criteria for selecting people to positions of power is how little they want power, not gender or race.
(Personally I think that’s because people who do not want power see it as a burden, and they do so because for them power is a great responsability towards many others - what sane individuals would ever want to be in a position were they can ruin the lives of countless people by making a mistake - and that’s exactly the kind of people you want to entrust with it, not the ones for whom power is a form of ego-stroking or even a tools for personal upside maximization)
Yupes, good old “benevolent” sexism.
God I’m reminded of anytime I watch something from the 90’s and then an asian character shows up…
It’s not that I’m racist and go into “WOKE MOBS TOOK MY WHITES AWAY!!!11111” mode
It’s that for the longest time in America, media was blatantly racist against basically everyone and in the 90’s, the cold war was over, the best electronics came from Japan, so the media was trying (and failing) to learn how to be not so asiaphobic. This didn’t mean “Don’t do stereotypes!”, this means “Do positive stereotypes”
So every show either had the one asian cast member or that one episode where the asian character showed up, and you could just HEAR the writers saying “Oh no, so he’s very proud of his heritage and is very smart, so it’s a positive thing. That makes up for his dialogue sounding like fortune cookies that have been put through google translate fifty times!”
And then you went into the 2000’s and this also became how they wrote black characters… Irwin from Billy and Mandy, Tucker from Danny Phantom, The Dino Thunder Blue Ranger, Richie from Static Sh… wait… Richie was the token white guy (In an amazing show I might add, god I should re-watch Static Shock)… Well my point still stands, they’re all the same fucking character “Oh no he’s really dorky and super smart, so it’s the exact opposite of the stereotype is the joke!”
Doing the exact opposite of the stereotype still calls attention to the stereotype, god damn it!
Miles Morales has shades of this too, but he’s nowhere near as insufferable as these characters and is far more believable as a “Black Nerd” than any of them.
Sorry, I remembered “Benevolent Racism” when you mentioned benevolent sexism, and that awakened that.
It’s really weird when the 90’s show you’re watching is based on an Asian Property and it does this nonsense, because I look at characters like “Kong Fu” from Donkey Kong Country, or the one episode of Adventures of Sonic The Hedgehog where Scratch and Grounder become “Ninja Robots” by draining the asianess from this Samurai Crane (I know samurai aren’t ninjas, but tell the show that), and I’m like… “Wow, I wonder how Shigeru Miyamoto and Yuji Naka felt if they ever saw this shit… Except fuck Yuji Naka, he’s a bit of a dick… The AoStH Episode is still fucked up though.”

as a treat
And a break! Patriarchy hurts everyone.
You can have a little patriarchy on the full moon, as a treat
Heck, yeah! I can be the Ceremonial Male at special festivals and then just chill and be normal the rest of the time.
The problem is too many won’t go for it. I recently met a guy who completely voted against his own best interests just because Kamala was born with a vagina instead of a penis. He admitted it freely, so he knowingly voted for the people who want to make people like him slaves again. It’s absolutely mind boggling.
Have you not seen tumblr? You’ll just get Elon Musk with a vagina and a hate-on for anyone capable of having a hard-on… Even if they aren’t men.
So an even more mask-off JK Rowling
I saw a Sliders episode like that and if I recall it was pretty sweet
Oh god I remember that episode. I haven’t seen it for so long that I have to see it again.
I don’t know about that. If I recall that woman got busted for hiding men at her place. They knew because the toilet seats were left up!
What’s next? Rename the Artemis program because we can’t be flying to the moon under some lady name? Probably change it to Ares, god of war and courage. That’s a very manly man name, just as the good lords Jesus and Trump intended.
Wasn’t Ares actually the name for a previous attempt at return to the moon?
The moon program in the 1960s was originally called Artemis and got renamed to Apollo for the same reasoning.
So it’ll probably get renamed to Apollo 2.
The Quickening
The Russians have simply continued the count of the Soviet Luna missions.
Change it to Donald, god of bone spurs and bigotry.
Lesser demi-god at best.
I think I missed that part in the Percy Jackson series
I’m imagining those early rocket failures where they just fall over and burst into flames.
Odds are they pick a Confederate general.
Don’t give them ideas!!
The F-47 has entered the chat.
Nicknamed The Dementia
Where can i read them now? Did anybody downloaded those comics and is willing to share them?
I have both pdf issues in english and spanish and the audiobook that they made for issue 1 and the .apk for the android app (idk how to get ios apps). I don’t know what to do with them yet. The website is available on internet archive, you can read both issues on there. For some reason issue 2 eng/sp .pdf were still on the nasa site if you have the direct link.
https://web.archive.org/web/20250301192918/https://www.nasa.gov/calliefirst/
Edit: Uploaded pdf to libgen (usr:genesis pw:upload) idk why it does that, they should get indexed on the other sites eventually.

Keith’s 23 March update: within a few hours after this was posted (over a weekend) A NASA YouTube video and an official NASA photo of two female astronauts were pulled offline. Both things had been online for several years. This is not the first time this has happened. Apparently NASA DEI Sanitation Squad is using my postings to help them delete things. Details below.
So has anybody saved the YouTube video?
yeah, it’s right in that same article.
looks like that’s the “details below” part of that paragraph.
