  1. Plus they’ve already explained it in very simple terms, complete with a map of where the ship was going and what happened after it lost power. I get that a lot people may not understand how drift/current/etc, work and how much mass is in one of those ships, and that just a small loss of power/control can cause enough of a deviation to run off course. I told somebody it’s like if a big fucking tackle gets slightly nudged off course after the ball is snapped, it’s not easy for him to adjust and get back on track in just a few feet and they still couldn’t understand it. I’m beginning to think some people believe that all ships have a large wheel on the bridge that’s connected by pulleys and gears to the rudders.
  2. I would need to hear my favorite Revolutionary War historian from Massachusetts pronounce it to know how it’s properly pronounced, like for instance I leaned that “Bunker Hill” is “Bunka Hill”
  3. Yeah, social media has been nuts. Because power failures never happen on cargo ships. And there’s no current or drift of wind that would ever push a powerless ship off course. And did the captain really signal “mayday” and did they really close the bridge? And don’t ships stop moving as soon as they lose power? The shit about China doing this as the start of a war would be hilarious if some of these idiots didn’t actually believe it. Occam’s Razor means nothing to them. At least when they rebuild it, they’ll put better barriers in (bumpers, whatever).
  4. I’m in Austin, so it’s pretty damn high. Probably equal to my chances of encountering somebody in a Subaru blaring Tracy Chapman, the Foo Fighters, or Bob Marley.
  5. So the Qanons love RFK Jr, but then he goes and picks a running mate whose background is Her parents are from China She started up an artificial intelligence company She was married to a Jewish guy Said ex-husband was the co-founder of Google, which is evil as far as Qanon is concerned She was a Democrat She supported Pete Buttigieg, a gay man, for President After Biden got the nomination, she supported him George Soros could not have come up with a better candidate to control RFK Jr.
  6. There’s already Republicans and some BMDs who have bailed on him because he lost the House, Senate, and White House. Another loss will seal the deal with a lot of Republicans and BMDs who just vote (R) for reasons, because they want to win, not listen to some old fat fuck whining about his losses in 2020 and 2024 and about how unfair everything is. And because Trump now controls the GOP and has already began Order 66 purging long-time Republicans in the RNC (who had important institutional knowledge), he is making the RNC about him, and only him, and it’s just an extension of Trump Org. He gives no shit about down-ballot candidates, he won’t simply go away into the night after he loses in November. He will not give up control of the RNC after he loses again, so he’s a problem that will have to be dealt with by Republicans who want to actually move forward and win.
  7. Those drivers using FSD trust a system that relies on cameras, pushed by a guy who tweets some of the dumbest and most juvenile shit imaginable.

  16. Would be the ultimate passive-aggressive move if so,e of these Republicans aren’t willing to go the Liz Cheney route, but are willing to to just bail on Congress and give the House to the Dems.
