Dyson sphere.
Good fucking grief. You think we can build a  sphere around something 864,000 miles in diameter? 😃

Like it has been for the last 75 years...

I don't think we have even built one reactor since 3 mile island.

My namesake was a sign stealer, and proud of it.
The Trumpers act like everyone was destroying their signs. But my signs were vandalized and stolen every election until I put up cameras.

I let people have their signs. But I expect mine to be left alone too.

We still have that niggling little issue about waste that is hot for a million years.

Perhaps, ala the Foundation book series, if we can find a way to miniaturize reactors....

But really all we do with nuke is boil water.

Nope. Not even close.
Trump won the popular vote. That’s a fact. Literally, everybody I know voted for him.

Well, apparently China is building an artificial sun with a sphere around it.
On the other hand, Mark’s party leaders suggest to go to the sun at night when it’s not so hot.

I’m a sneaky voter. I don’t do signs.
