Warehouse Fires and Shuttle Launches
-

Written by:
Kristen and Harrison return to Queer Times as Kristen recounts watching NASA’s Artemis launch, realizing lingering Challenger-era trauma, and discussing “competency porn,” increased women in mission control, and a touching tribute naming a bright lunar spot in memory of Commander Reid Wiseman’s late wife Carol, a NICU nurse. They contrast women’s high standards with men “phoning it in,” citing Justin Bieber’s reportedly low-effort, higher-paid Coachella set and broader festival excess costs, prompting personal frugality goals. Harrison covers an alleged worker-arson at a Kimberly-Clark warehouse tied to living-wage demands, notes other recent commercial fires and a Molotov attack at Sam Altman’s home, and urges support for a May 1 general strike. Their QT of the week is Judge Ebony K. Williams defending an 18-year-old in a conversion-therapy payment dispute and condemning the father’s actions.
