To believe that would mean we'd have to trust the government.

I'd rather panic and rob a liquor store thank you very much!

Rats, we got clouds and rain coming tonight, what a bummer. When we get high solar activity, our antenna signal from close gets all messed up, but we got ten extra channels from all over the country during one storm and we got to watch some stations we normally don't get with our antenna. I will have to try rescanning. We have been losing stations this year from lightning strikes and wind damage to the towers and equipment. It sucks, one station was out for two weeks while parts were ordered and the last one, two weeks ago was out for a week while they got in a new transmitter part.

there been reports of significant traffic jams and Cell phone Networks going down everywhere

Cell Phones Going Down

The moon? Mars?

Which has hotter women?

Apparently Venus.
The Three Stooges and Abbott and Costello made movies where the plot had them traveling to Venus and there were hot chicks galore in both movies.

Meh, "worst" case scenario is Trumps travel ban is implemented and Antifa cucks die off when they can't figure out how to feed themselves.

-Babe grab the bob we leaving.

-right away love, we heading to the cache?

-Mars, we re going to Mars my love.

Yeah, I understand it's not the best, but I do have
a Snickers and half a Dr Pepper to tide me over.
Plus I think I can reach the underwear drawer
with this Slim Jim I just found.



edit to add: Gah! I just snapped my slim jim

See this is why I don't believe people should be fined for
littering.

Not sure if it's related to a solar storm but where I am in England right now and for the past hour theres fast intense lightning turning the night into almost day yet no rain or thunder, it's deadly silent out :/

Never seen lightning like it in my life, even after 2 am theres people outside watching.

Because there's a what looks to be pretty epic thunderstorm moving up through Devon & Cornwall at the moment

3,000 strikes in the last 40 minutes

That is mighty interesting, since our local utility company is shutting down everything including online services between May 26-28 for "complicated and expensive upgrades to the electric services for the continued safety and well being of our customers". Creepiest message I've ever heard from them. Nothing will be open except for emergency technicians. Things that make you go hmm....

Edit to add: two weeks ago, they came out with about a dozen trucks and put up solar led street lights all over our neighborhood.
