Be BRAVE and TRUE

Today I am annoyed with comics for being needlessly cryptic.  I can roll with a lot of unresolved threads, but it's difficult while I'm reading Avengers canon because I don't know what's new and going to be explained later and what's a continuation of some old comics history I haven't read.  This kind of thing makes me crabby because I don't love feeling lost and stupid.  If I want to feel lost and stupid I can go read popular nonfiction about theoretical physics and learn some stuff about light probably.  Light is very fast and also it always takes the most effective path from emission point a to absorption point b and also, from light's perspective, it doesn't move at all, it just is.  I could be learning more nonsensical facts, comics!  In my fiction I want two mysteries maximum and I want them clearly signposted as "things we'll explain later" thank you.

I'm composing a list of all early space missions so I can rate them on likelyhood of carrying the first man (or woman, but by the numbers I'm guessing man) to crank it in space.  The official NASA line is that nobody has had any orgasms in space and we all know that isn't true, so I think it's somebody's duty to speculate as to who done it first.  Some people may call this "unnecessary" and "vulgar" but I call it hypothetical space anthropology.  So far, I've learned that Yuri Gagarin started a tradition of peeing on the left back tire of the astronaut bus before liftoff, which is still practiced to this day, and also he brought snacks to space with him.
