Poor Katy. The roasting is endless even though it’s the piece of shit Bezos who actually deserves it.
Bezos deserves it for ripping billions of dollars out of the public space program so that he can indulge in a fantasy of privatized space flight.
Katy deserves a bit of flak for playing along to boost her fading brand.
They both suck.
But she’s trying to make women in space glam again! 😂
DOGE Staffer here. This is DEI and you have to delete it.
I don’t really follow celebrity news, but I think the last time I heard about her she was praising Musk and her cybertruck. It seems she has been open about whose side she is on for a while now.
Her music isn’t even that bad. Its a pineapple-on-pizza thing.
That eye of the tiger or whatever song was straight trash though.
Roar, iirc.
In my opinion it was decent, but extremely overrated/overplayed.
She never called herself an astronaut. Fuck the rich and all but people here are just using this to excuse their misogyny.
did she call herself an astronaut or something?
edit: apparently not, people don’t like Katy Perry/women and are making things up to get angry about.
Gail King did
Edit: Gayle*
Gail King is the embodiment of everything I hate about liberals.
Laundering rhetoric works as well as laundering money for these people. Hand some spokesmodel a stack of queue cards that consist of a series of vile slurs, and the audience will just nod and say “I guess this is what normal people really think.”
Maybe it’s that. But I say fuck all space tourists because of the environmental impact and the zero gain for humanity. It’s up there with owning a million yachts.
Rage>facts… Something something…boobs… Something something
Varyk: asks simple yes or no question
You: here’s a 40 minute video explaining the whole story. It might answer your question, it might not.
a 40-minute video unrelated to my question is exceedingly unhelpful.
it’s good you guys are learning about vulnerable minorities, but it’s not news to everyone and not relevant everywhere.
Someone was HEAVILY inspired by Contapoints’ videos.
I don’t recall Perry claiming she was an astronaut.
This stunt, however, is a colossal tone-deaf, obscenely expensive, wasteful PR stunt while millions of people are terrified about their economic futures. That money could have gone to much better use.
The person who interviewed her after getting back to earth said she was an astronaut now… teo very tone deaf dumb morons who played banter back and forth… Katy didnt correct the woman and was enjoying being akin to an astronaut title and thats why she is being dragged… And she deserves it.
Noted. Thanks.
To be fair, she never claimed to be an astronaut.
Also, the Jeff-Dildo isn’t capable of reaching the karman line, so she wasn’t in space either.
What makes you say that?
I’m in no way here to defend blue orgin, but the capsule does apogee “just above 100km”. It’s pretty clear getting above the karman line was their main goal.
If we’re gonna throw shade we gotta be accurate. Lets make fun of them for being suborbital and for making the most phallic launch vehicle ever.
In that case they seem to have actually upped their game because for a pretty long time they weren’t able to.
But yes, I’m all in favor of throwing shade, so we can if course make fun of the phallic shape. And in my book, astronauts have been in orbit.
It’s basically always been over 100km after some of the early test flights. It was explicitly a stated goal to cross the karman line as “making it to space.”
I think you’re thinking of when this same thing played out in the first manned flight. At the time some of the “better” arguments said the karman line is arbitrary and some other height was better. Or time in space. Or training. Or ability to control the ship. Or…
In the end, she’s been to space and these comments just seem petty to me.
Why is everyone saying “she did not call herself an astronaut” when the meme never states that?
In interviews she was called an astronaut and that is the point this meme is making. One of the other women (Gale something) does call herself an astronaut, so theres that.
This meme is about the out of touch media coverage around the event, not what Katy did not even say.
With that said, I understand the emotional reactions given what is happening in America. Women that worked in NASA are being erased from history at the same time this stunt happens, its infuriating.
can’t relate
One minute is acceptable too.
As are solo flights.
One minute?! Jesus, you must run marathons with that stamina!
It’s hard to get my socks off.
She acted how a crash test dummy would if there were no crash.
Edit “like” to “how”.
Shame DOGE did not calculate the fuel load.
wow, the rare double-cringe!
it wasn’t bad enough that she went to “space” - we also get to see edgy tate memes, too!
viva 2025!
Like, three minutes in one go? Not spread out over your lifetime?
So how much pussy eating does a real gynecologist have to do?
I still need a couple minutes to be gynecologist then…
An upvote isn’t enough, this is fucking funny.
