The level of ignorance and stupidity running rampant in this country is so high that if CNN said the Jupiter explosion will cause Earth’s ocean to rise and was caused by Trump-style capitalism, a full 40% of Americans would believe it.

Thank You for deliverance, Lord.

They were aiming for Io but missed. The Ionians are probably thanking their lucky stars.

Hi.

To the untrained eye, that explosion looked massive.

Maybe 200 megatons or more.

Rattled some alien’s cage it did. Probably a Uranian?

5.56mm
