Reagan probably got Nancy to shove them up his ass while performing her famous BJs.

I mean, if you’re doing a full weekend of activities with friends those beers could be spaced out far enough that you’re never more than slightly buzzed (small cans, <5%ABV). But yeah, if it’s a regular thing, it’s not a great look.

It's almost as if we're weaving a whole narrative from a meme post.

Either way, I hope they had a lovely time.

How long could the shuttle stay up there if it was deemed unsafe to return?

They might have been preparing to orbit for long enough to launch a rescue mission.

100 is probably still to many. I’m suprized they didn’t just buy a box of them, or ask the manufacturers, who surely have the most data on average tampon consumption.

Why ask the manufacturer about the average consumption when you can ask the person in question about the real consumption?

Coincidentally, there is no laundry or shower on the international space station.

Adding to that: Worn clothes are “thrown out the window” and burn up in the atmosphere.

this kind of negativity doesn't help Star Wars, or any fandom.

If you have a sample size of 0 and a backup plan of "crash and burn", it does make sense to be extra careful with the preparation.

Yes. Yes.

it probably came in a 100 count

A 100-count box seems like an absurdly large unit size. Are you doing the very thing that the anecdote is intended to highlight?

They definitely come in 100 counts. This part isn't speculation. I have no Idea what NASA procurement looks like though, and I don't have anyone to ask.

As a purist, we can agree that the only real series was TNG, this was the cornerstone, built on the hallowed but kind of silly ground made by the original series, but followed by DS9 when we grew up a little, and we can kinda accept Voyager was a thing that happened somewhere in the distance but we don't get too close.

There was nothing else. The franchise ended and we all moved on, happy for the good run. "ALL GOOD THINGS..."

Five Hundred Cigarettes

It's either super complicated and expensive tampons with certification or some employee being send to the nearest supermarket

Are you new on the internet?

Just grab a six-pack

Presidential Manpon

Depends on the ABV bigtime...

no, but i am sick of it. we don't have to be this way.

Focus that energy on areas that are making people actually contentious and hateful towards each other like rampant capitalistic greed, subversion of democracy and internet grifters who manufacture hate for engagement. Talking shit about the shows we like and don't like is fun.

People have been debating their standards for media, entertainment and franchises for longer than we have written history. Literally, look up Roman graffiti. It's fine, it's fun even. If you're seeing malice and stress in these kinds of debates, you need to back away from it entirely for a bit. Just don't get involved, stay healthy.
