“Retrograde” is the recurring illusion of a planet moving backward across the sky, which clueless ancients thought the planets were actually doing in the firmament, as the Universe revolved around Earth. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, Mercury, the most frequently retrograding planet, ends its 20-day grip on civilization. So when bad things happen to you after today, you’ll need to find something else to blame them on, until Mercury retrogrades again, 100 days from now. — PolitiTweet.org

NASA Scientists & Engineers successfully landed a rover & helicopter on planet Mars, where it’s 100 degrees below zero, 120 million miles away. On that same day it was cold in Texas. Millions of people lost electricity. Conclusion: Maybe NASA, not politicians, should run Texas. https://t.co/YzioIXBiij — PolitiTweet.org
