Every single shot or thumbnail I see of Victor Glover just looks like he's tired of this shit and everything he's putting up with.
couldn't fit them all in the top comment

Will ICE be waiting for them?
The struggle is real.
Apparently they just let Trump talk and didn't respond for a full minute and Trump was like "anyway you're the best" and they still didn't respond and Trump's people ended the call.
The astronauts gave him the silent treatment. They could clearly hear him.
I watched it live, they did respond to his direct questions, but at some point Trump went into a monologue that didn't end in a question, and they didn't say anything back, keeping a silence going for an awkward amount of time until Houston asked if they are still on the line and they confirmed that yeah they heard everything. And said nothing else.
Nah other way around. The astronauts asked a NASA administrator if they are still on the line or if there was a handover. Then Tump replied "I am, yes, I am".
This is fucking amazing
Yes they were actually very polite, they knew they were speaking with a demented narcissist.
Pedophile
Why not both?
I'd like to commend Trump for lowering himself to talk to a woman and shudder A Black
Funnily enough. There's no woman nor person of color farther away from him than these two.
Lucky, lucky people
In space, no one can hear your cringe
... but we can see it.
"oh you're breaking up i think we're going through a tunnel"
After 30 seconds of akward silence they asked if the connection was okay, it was beautiful to see
"Wait I think there is someone outside the airlock, we will go and check!"
Maybe they've got some Farscape episodes on their computers. Probably watching them enviously.
We feel you mister astronaut. The entire planet is with you.
Me when astronauts start blathering about the bible:
Yuppp
Epstein's on the Moon, with email this time.
I got no space for joy about this moonshot, wish I did.
I wouldn't have gone to the moon if I were them. You know they'll have to meet the president after they get back. It's not worth it.
I'm not sure if "have to" is true. I'm sure they could refuse. The consequences might include not being an astronaut, but that's probably the same as your option.
I would have stayed in moon orbit.
He's asking how young the girls in space are, and they're thinking about all of the Sci-Fi movies where the Earth blows up and astronauts have to watch it go.
Luckiest folks in the human race. Furthest from Trump.
Furthest from Trump and yet were told they needed to be on a direct call with him. Apparently even being in space isn’t enough.
They could presumably be within 300 miles of him.
Yeah the NASA twitch stream had to swap to emojis only.
Also, Trump referring to Jeremy Hansen:
And the 4 brave astronauts of Artemis II are our modern-day, you really are modern-day pioneers, all of you. And one of them happens to be a neighbor. You know who that is, right? You have a special person over there, a neighbor. And, uh, we like our neighbor.
'4 brave astronuts'
The two on the left imagining just never going back to earth
The mission may be called Integrity, but this part was pure Endurance.
Correction: The mission is called Artemis 2. Integrity is the callsign the Orion capsule was given by its crew.
Am I gonna regret asking

Probably the best speech he's ever made tbh.
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
