Could you imagine living in 1969? Sending astronauts to the moon. Fighting a useless war and the president is a crook.
The Eddie Show 📷🎧❤️
was there.@cmconseils was there.
was there.
SnaprailsMe too.
Once of my earliest memories is of watching Neil Armstrong stepping onto the moon on my Nan's telly.
Duncan Bayne@snaprails @TheEddieShow @cmconseils I'm surprised it was economically viable to get your Nan's telly to the moon for him to step on! 1969 payload costs were bonkers.
@duncan_bayne @TheEddieShow @cmconseils
Indeed, which is why it was much easier to bring the moon down onto my Nan's telly 🙂

@snaprails @TheEddieShow @cmconseils Economies of scale there too, since it was so many tellies at once 🙃
Karl Heinz Häsliprinz@cmconseils But also acid and good music :(

Monty Python did a sketch around that time.
“Wow look at page 8 - Nixon’s had an asshole transplant.”
“Have you seen the ‘stop press’? The asshole rejected him.”
Eggs now in different baskets.@cmconseils Ah good old Tricky Dicky!
A beacon of sanity and honesty.
How I miss him.
/s but I am not completely sure as he got caught in the end.
Mayday! Mayday! 86 47!@cmconseils yes, this is my 2nd time around. 😣

Was born in early 1970 (was supposed to have been born in early December of 1969). So, I was still living in the immediate aftermath of those events.
Soon enough, we'll have the de-orbiting of the ISS to look forward to in the same way that we had the de-orbiting of SkyLab to look forward to.

David RenaudI know. The astronauts didn't even have group hugs on TV in 69. It must have been horrible.
Diandra Linnemann@cmconseils At least they had better hair. ^^
Julian West🦞@cmconseils can you imagine what it must have been like back then ... then ... then [fade to 1969, gas is $0.35 ($3.19 adjusted for inflation)]
lkngrrr 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏴☠️@cmconseils Ah, to live in a time when the other two branches of government and the Fourth Estate were still slightly useful.
Jeroen Wiert Pluimers@cmconseils being born then was quite the thing for me.
📸 The Sceptical Coffee Drinker@cmconseils yep I can I was seven years old in 1969 and as Armstrong put his big boot on the moon in Australia we had conscription for The Viet Nam War.
Pirate BearHistory does rhyme.

This gives me hope the 2030s will be like the 1980s.

Janov911@cmconseils Déjà vu, much…?
Paul Rosen@cmconseils I was there. I'm nostalgic for it - Nixon's crimes are only about a week's worth of this year's crimes. And there was only one useless war. And there were intrepid WaPo reporters ON IT. And we only read the news once a day.
Gregg Alley@cmconseils At least we had Woodstock. 😄

(((JaneinNJ)))@cmconseils Like lots of others, I was there. The orange disaster, however, makes Nixon and friends look like Boy Scouts. And they were truly terrible.
