Is Bashi an extremist fringe, or is he simply like the “many” I described, who are calling bullshit on the climate change scam (e.g. as pushed by the green activists). I say the words “climate change is bullshit” all the time without adding the qualifier “as defined by dipshit greenies.” I bet Bashi does understand that humans do affect the planet, but also not remotely in the way the dipshits claim alongside their asinine agenda and policies.

Depends on how much credibility you put in the pilot’s literal words. The quote, “he literally jumped out the back” comms a deliberate action to leave the airplane. But completely possible the pilot should have said “fell” and it was a misspeak/poor choice of word.

That’s pretty solid evidence it was suicide, unless the pilot is completely lying to ATC, but doesn’t seem like it.

They already do that - pro tip, check in on the app as soon as you land. That said, it seems “capacity” is no shit every seat taken. On that note, anyone have success keeping the Amex fees away as a part timer? I’m just waiting for the moment they actually realize I’m not full time.

I like the general premise of your post, but much in line with the theme, it’s notable to point out most, if not all of us, understand humans affect earth and the climate. Totally on board with working towards cleaner ______, in a honest, logical, and realistic manner. The “green energy” Karen’s and their overlords couldn’t be further from the italicized part. So when many people say “climate change is bullshit,” well it’s absolutely a misnomer, as literal climate impact is true, but the label “climate change” as described by “the green Karen’s” of society is a complete sham, and that’s the “their truth” that were all calling bullshit on.

What really blows my mind is someone is such a slug they can’t pass an embarrassingly low-bar PT test, and are so weak-minded (because its just mental at this low of a bar) they would rather bribe than workout a little bit. Fuck ‘em, send them packing as an example to the rest, and leave everyone else alone.

Sounds awesome, I’d love to fly that…but for less than 9 hrs!

Talk to your reserve sq/cc back home about options; anything on here is conjecture and may or may not be applicable to your situation today.

B5 currently, soon to be followed by Donkey Punch Pox. Heard that one will be a real pain in the ass!

According to DAL’s chief health officer (impressive med background), the new strain is weaker than the traditional flu. So yeah, everyone move on with life and stop buying into the bullshit.

Our country is where it is because Mandy votes.

I’m shocked!

Unbelievable. I have reserved all judgement and opinions until now. Well, now that video evidence is out - fucking pussies. Of all places, I wouldn’t have expected LEOs in Texas to be so dickless (not applying this Texas-wide).

Does it really matter? Neither of them are the actual decision makers, so really it’ll just be a symbolic gesture to kick him out. It also won’t hurt the optics helping the GOP - Kamala is just as much a train wreck in public as Biden, and that’s the curveball they never saw coming when they hatched this plan to get a woman in the WH.

Meanwhile, the parts store wasn’t open for MX to get critical parts, multiple families gained another week of not having their HHGs, and an estimated 6900 pages of forms were misplaced in the uniform prep “party” hubris (but the customer won’t know until they eventually call and are told they have to start over, mi scusi!) Fucking shoes

Lots of people like them in progressive states; never underestimate how many dumbasses live in this country.

If step 1 is completely fuck our independent energy and cripple the average American, then what is step 2 to enable step 3 where everyone drives EVs, there’s green mass transit available for everyone, power grids support these without major issue, etc. All for advancing energy tech and making it better, but these people are out of their fucking minds on the how part. I don’t care what party you affiliate with, the current approach should boil your blood.

158th who?

I don’t disagree with your overall points, but I do not agree with you broad-brushing an entire generation as an excuse for underperforming millennials. For every asshole baby boomer there’s multiple who have done good things for those younger than them. Assholes fucking over our country/people come in all age groups and each generation will include shitbags who continue to fuck over others; such actions are not trademarked by any generation - past, present, or future. So what about that? Well, again, you can find a way to overcome that shit, or you can cry in the corner sucking your thumb.

Wait a minute, so now we’re talking about politicians, foreign actors and big finance fucking people over - yeah dude, completely agree. That’s a whole different ball of wax than just broad brush blaming a generation for the woes of the younger generation.

How exactly are WE punishing children? Hurdles in life are not synonymous with the Royal we punishing anybody. But I have a feeling that’s exactly what you think.

The root cause is shitty/lazy parents for sure. They wanted to be their kid’s best friend instead of their parent and mentor. And because of that they’ve produced kids who are entitled, lazy, ignorant, etc. And did you call me a clown for buying trophies? My son’s participation trophy he received in t ball years ago went directly in the trash at the field - he learned a valuable lesson on attitude and effort that day. Several millennial parents were mortified, the difference years later is my son doesn’t have an attitude or work ethic problem, where as their “best friends” do (I know some of them personally, their kids are everything we’ve been talking about). And now that I think about it, my boomer parents (and friend’s boomer parents) worked hard to give us kids a good life within their means. They parented and mentored us instead of coddling us. They actually did a hell of a job raising that wild pack of animals (err, kids) back in the 80s and 90s. The point - blaming someone else (especially in the past) while sitting on your ass gets nobody anywhere. Again for the 3rd? time, adapt and overcome or be a whiny bitch who will go nowhere. It’s actually pretty simple.

By traditional do you mean “work at X for 40 years, pension, etc?” If so, then to agree with your further down point, that’s probably not a bad thing. Again, adapt to the changing work environment, or be a whiny bitch on social media - choose. Lots of millennials own their own business, lots are making O-5 level livings without a college degree, etc. It’s DIFFERENT than decades ago, but is not the doom and gloom “we got so screwed whaaaa” that is pushed. That is simply an excuse. Find a way over or around the hurdle, or give up. I don’t have empathy for most who take the whiny route because I see so many succeeding. I of course have empathy for those who truly are experiencing some significant hurdles that they’re trying to get over, but can’t - but it’s bullshit to say those people make up “a large percentage, majority, etc.” Overall, I think there are far more millennials succeeding and living life than there are being lazy, entitled shits. But to those lazy ones, I have zero empathy - find a way to win (including pivoting from the outcome of your poor decision to get an expensive and useless degree) or cry yourself to sleep on tik tok like a child, you deserve which ever outcome you make.

I think that’s far more of America than you think. Of course there are extreme groups of people, but I’m still optimistic 80% of the country is not on an extreme and generally does not give a fuck what others do in their private lives. Sure opinions may differ, but 80% aren’t trying to actively stop others from living their life. We should all focus our energy on shutting up the 10% on each side rather than lumping everyone on the other side of center into that “10% category.”

@Sua Sponte I get it, you’re talking to a poli sci major from a state school. But here’s the thing, I think my wife and I (technically millennials) are crushing life pretty well for us and our kids, and we got to where we are without anything handed to us. But I didn’t own what I do now when I was 25, or 30, etc. We steadily built our life today through effort and adapting around plenty of unexpected life hurdles. We’re not unique, lots of millennials have done this, many better than I did (the hookers and blow were totally worth it!) But like most things these days, negative news and whiny bitches get most of the “air time.” Additionally, I have millennial friends who never went to college - they’re crushing life much better than the art history guy. Lastly, I don’t define making millions on wall street from your Ivy League shoe-in job as the min bar to define “crushing life.” But if that’s your definition, well then I feel bad for your bleak outlook on life.
