This is my face when I get the jump seat, too.

@TheLatamGuy @Puddy_Tat10 @Iberianamerica Those rubles aren’t going to launder themselves and since the usual European bolt holes aren’t available since the Ukraine invasion they’re popping up elsewhere …

@ZaidJilani True, but the voters aren’t looking for a tonsillectomy. They’re hiring a senator. While a surgeon with a Nazi tattoo who cheats on his wife and assaulted his girlfriends may still be a fine surgeon, those moral failings well make him a poor leader.

@GilbertBelion It’s called money can’t buy good taste.

The easiest way to tell if someone online is bootlicker?

They constantly whine about color revolutions.

[Jason Smith - 上官杰文 @ShangguanJiewen]

The easiest way to tell if the USA is planning a color-revolution in another nation?

NYT starts publishing propaganda about that nation.

@BumpkinEsq @wil_da_beast630 Too bad the confederacy had to exempt nearly 40% of its military age male population from conscription because it couldn’t risk arming the very people whose rights and humanity it was fighting to deny. Perhaps a few more southern men in uniform might have made a difference.

@GeorgeDAndrews2 @dboyer1982 And they, like Taylor, were traitors too. As you said, it wasn’t because they were innocent that none were tried for treason. The fact that many of their whiny ass descendants refuse to acknowledge their treachery just shows how shortsighted the decision to not punish them was.

���🇽 @carlosbravoreg explains, "Rocha's case hints at the possibility that cartel power may have contaminated the ranks of Mexico’s governing party, putting President Claudia Sheinbaum in an impossible dilemma. Moving against Mr. Rocha, by allowing an extradition process to move forward or withdrawing political support from him, would expose rifts inside her coalition and invite accusations that she is yielding to Washington. Refusing to act, especially if the evidence proves strong, would deepen doubts in the United States about her willingness to go after cartel corruption within her own ranks.

But there is a way for Ms. Sheinbaum to use this fraught moment to her advantage: by turning Washington’s coercive demands into an opportunity to finally clean house within her party and beyond." 🎁🔗 https://t.co/vVk16F6WeJ

@ReubenR80027912 This just shows how ignorant Thiel actually is. If the shit hits the fan in the US, Argentina’s going down with it. When the US catches a cold, Latin America gets the flu and he’d have known that if he’d bothered to crack a Latin American history book.

For 37 years, over 2,000 images taken by a Chinese state media photographer were hidden in a metal box, surviving brutal purges—until now.

These raw, powerful photos show the courage of the students, the scale of the protests, and the horror of what the Chinese Communist Party did.

Now, The @EpochTimes is making the photos public for the first time. [1/2]

Hear me out… Commercial jetliners fly around with their cabins pressurized to about 8.4 PSI to facilitate breathing. Type C emergency exits (like those on A-320s) have a surface area of about 10 square feet or 1,440 square inches. That means there’s over 12,000 lbs of pressure holding that exit shut against the fuselage. There is absolutely no way in the universe we live in that anyone is getting that exit open in cruise flight, so unless you enjoy long walks with Bubba in the federal prison, stop trying and give the crew and your fellow passengers a break. Thanks :)

[Eric Lynn @ericslynn]

@BridgetPhetasy @todayyearsold But it didn’t matter because there are thousands of pounds of pressure holding the door shut in a pressurized aircraft at cruising altitude. Those are plug doors and they’re physically impossible for a human to open during flight.

@CoinerChandler @tallsnail Hey Einstein, unless you’re planning on sending the 2-year-old into Disneyland alone, it still costs $300 to take one there since parents’ tickets aren’t free.

[Eric Lynn @ericslynn]

@mhp_guy There are no flights to London from LaGuardia. Also this business is not viable. Bizjets aren’t designed for the abuse of 12 hours/day flying every day. Maintenance costs would kill you. Also JFK and LHR are slot controlled so you’re using other, less convenient airports.

@MattWelch @EsotericCD I mean he’d been out of office for 7 years (and dead for 3 of them), which would have been plenty of time for Nixon and Ford to fix things. I’m no LBJ fan but it seems silly to blame him here.

[Eric Lynn @ericslynn]

@MattWelch @EsotericCD LBJ had been dead for 3 years by 1976. What failure was he responsible for?

[Eric Lynn @ericslynn]

@ModeledBehavior You can also crash them, especially without training.

@neoavatara AC has been pretty standard in the DC area for the last half century.

@greg_travis @dirspielbergo @alexandretakacs @Keg767 But pilot suicide by intentional jetliner crash do happen and are in fact more common than the fuel cut off switches moving on their own, one second apart, to the cut off position.

[Eric Lynn @ericslynn]

@greg_travis @dirspielbergo @alexandretakacs @Keg767 Yes, that’s what happens when the person responsible for a disaster dies in said disaster. You can’t ask them why they made the mistakes in question.
