I'm increasingly starting to think that "justice" might be a fake idea.

"Reciprocity" and "exchange" are two different concepts, and I think capitalism has poisoned us to think of the former in terms of the latter.

@kit So uh if you want an actual answer:

You can't quite "drop" things from space; you need to slow down enough for them to de-orbit. So that needs basically a small rocket motor.

The harder part is the orbital plane. If you're ordering at the equator, you only ever pass over the equator and it takes a *lot* of energy to get something farther north or south. You can solve this by being in a polar or highly-inclined orbit but then you only have delivery windows once per day to any given spot.

I'm often so-so about proclaming myself as trans; that word in combination with my queer+masc presentation can sorta give the wrong idea about my story. Today, though, I'm here to remind folks that trans includes many different paths and approaches, and they're all valid.
