Hi! my name is Nathan

i post jokes and do a bunch of tedious but aesthetic stuff in my free time:

* space photos
* bird photos
* bouncing radio off the moon
* making gadgets
* using/programming old computers
still surprised the extent to which the ladies fell for ai bf’s but my guess is its both a quirk of both how women are socialized in this culture, and a blistering reaction to The General State of Men right now

Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.
