  1. Maybe he’s talking about this guy
  2. Are we expecting plane crashes to become common enough not to deserve individual threads?
  3. I’m surprised the management of the restaurant allowed that
  4. Is there a camp that would take you?
  5. IsSuchAThingEvenPossible.gif do you know who imposes tariffs? I’m actually pro tariff as a way to capture the environmental costs of near slave labor and zero regulation on environmental pollution But that’s not what is happening here
  6. Just finishing up in the OR and Fox News (as usual) is on in the lounge and the talking heads and guests are making rumbles about wtf another plane crash?
  7. And family member
  8. Possibly blew up in midair?
  9. On some level I get it. Who would have thought a pathological liar would do exactly what he said he would do?
  10. They were already short staffed and working 60 hour weeks prior to all this. Plane crashes aren't the result of one thing. It’s a perfect storm of smaller factors. Stress and being overworked are 2 huge ones with ATC. Literally the main reason for the strike that Reagan broke
  11. There have been rumors of this since before Trump took office. You don’t think there is increased stress among workers such as air traffic controllers on top of their already being grossly overworked and short staffed? Come on man and the idea that 6% of the federal workforce works full time in office is ludicrous. Postal service and healthcare workers alone likely make up more than 6% consider any information coming out of this “government” bullshit. Anyone not 100% loyal to Trump is actively being purged.
  12. That’s because what politicians say and do can be vital components causing and or influencing current events, and current events cannot be properly understood without that context. Your wanting to keep your head in the stand should not interfere with our ability to access the information necessary to understand many of the topics that fall under the umbrella of current events maybe stick to threads about how awesome our pets are or which celebrities just died.
  13. How many EOs has he signed in 10 days
  14. I take your point. Not worth arguing the whys; we ended up here regardless I do prefer Wordsworth to Shelley though. Something to calm your soul I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.
  15. I think his point is this if the correct thread? I mean they’re not implying it. They are flat out stating it. See the quotes above.
  16. Yes but quarantining it in a separate thread means the usual denizens will avoid it and it reinforces their belief that it’s not pertinent
  17. I get you’re in a tough spot and I’m not going to berate you. But quotes from and clips of elected officials, cabinet members current and past, and for the goddam president are absolutely essential to a discussion of the current events here and they should not have been moved to this thread, nor should subsequent posts be placed here instead of the other thread and I say fuck those loons if they don’t like it. They want a safe space let them go somewhere else But it’s your sandbox, we just shit in it
  18. I’m not superstitious on most things but fuck I hate changing flights after I book them. I have this irrational fear that I’m going to get on a flight doomed to crash
  19. Just noticed this was moved to a standalone thread Hahaha you fucking pussies.
  20. Maybe some of us could do some short videos of our favorite recipes or our our pets doing funny stuff and post them. Or maybe lip syncing and dancing.
