Melba Roy, NASA Mathmetician, 1964. I don’t know much about orbital element timetables, but I love that the computations of a gracious lady in pearls helped produce them (by which millions saw the satellite from Earth as it passed overhead). Ms. Roy headed a group of NASA mathmeticians known as “computers” who tracked the Echo satellites in 1964. Photo: NASA/Corbis

Paul and Storm came over last night, and eventually Brubaker showed up, so we played this game, Cards Against Humanity.
Cards Against Humanity is a party game for horrible people. Unlike most of the party games you’ve played before, Cards Against Humanity is as despicable and awkward as you and your friends. The game is simple. Each round, one player asks a question from a Black Card, and everyone else answers with their funniest White Card.
It’s so much fun, and it’s so very wrong and horrible. It’s very hard to find, because it goes out of print almost as fast as they can print it, but the creators have got your back: you can legally download the entire game and make your own set, if you don’t want to wait to find it in a store. I’d humbly suggest that if you decide to do that, you send the creators some beer money.
Really, it’s probably a lot like our regular Apples to Apples games, which always veer toward the horrible and wrong, and fun. You know it’s true when the green card is “unpleasant” and the winning red card is “Hiroshima.” So wrong.
