Oh. I thouhgt maybe it might refer to the Nortic fertility god, Vanir, (fertility=producing children), who is sometimes referred to as Wane in English literature.

NASA’s planetary defense spacecraft mission (DART) has successfully altered the trajectory of the asteroid Dimorphos and they have determined that it will not hit the Earth. The asteroid is about 170 meters in diameter and if it hit Earth it would have caused immediate massive casualties on impact with a crater more than a mile in diameter and likely spewed dust and debris into the atmosphere effecting the climate for years.
The success of the mission means we will not have to face the same fate as the dinosaurs - - at least this time.
Here’s the full briefing:

#TruthBeTold = A statement that is logically or literally true (or partly true), but seems to imply something that isn’t true or is just plain weird. (for rhetoric, logic or propaganda studies… or just for fun)
Putin is a bastard for causing all this pain. The people of Russia should send him into exile.
And of course they just happened to use a pic of a black guy. F*cking racist.
Just make a toot with all of the "subs" that you want like this:

https://qoto.org/tags/nordestream2
etc...

Then "pin" the toot to your profile.
It should have been called the Godot Constant.
>"why does anyone take this organization seriously again"
For the same reason that the US Congress takes it's ethics committees seriously.
>"it is ok to correct your opinion if supported by new knowledge and information, spread the concept"
...or supported by new analysis of what is already known.
Now you have me wondering...
In what context would a lawyer discuss Zeno's paradox. (Continual postponements of a trial, maybe.)
It's a barter system.
1. Your content in exchange to see the posts of others.
2. The instance owner provides a server in exchange for seeing private data about the posters (which maybe he trades for something else).
Where is this image from?
Yes, my comment was sarcastic.
Video meetings use the least energy, (unless the conference is within walking/biking distance).
> "Saw three dogs in the space of about a minute walking between classes."
Obedience classes, no doubt.
"NASA will host a media briefing at 2 p.m. EDT, Tuesday, Oct. 11, to discuss the agency’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) mission and its intentional collision with its target asteroid, Dimorphos."
For the historical record (or for anyone not in on the joke), someone just bombed the Kerch Bridge on Putin's birthday, and the freedom-fighters in Ukraine posted this video of Marilyn Monroe just to rub it in. (The bridge was a pet project of Putin's)
Answer...
This one is 100% correct. The spacecraft missed Didymos because it was supposed to miss Didymos. The mission was to hit the smaller, companion asteroid in the system, P-Didymos.
I'm just a geek.
Pronouns: She/Him/Her/His
(Use "she" for the subjective case, "him" for the objective case, "her" for the active possessive case, and "his" for the passive possessive case. Note: This is to avoid non-PC objectification and passivity.)

If I favorite your toot, it doesn't mean that I feel your toot is my favorite toot. It means that I'm letting you know that I saw your toot, probably read it, and maybe even liked it (but not necessarily).
