Mitch McConnell’s billionaire sister-in-law Angela Chao made panicked last call before dying in ‘completely submerged’ Tesla on Texas ranch: report

Reply in thread

"After a Friday evening celebrating Lunar New Year with close friends, Chao decided to drive back to the main house on the ranch around 11:30 p.m., the Journal reported."

I wonder if she had been drinking.

"According to the Journal's account, Chao told her friend that she had put her car in reverse instead of drive — a mistake she had made before — leading her to back over an embankment and into the pond."

Tesla removed the shift stalks from X and *S models in 2021 in favor of the car guessing which direction you want to go, with the option to override on the touchscreen.

Edit: Originally stated Y by mistake. Chao was driving an X when the incident occurred.

This is me but with anti-car urbanism. Ever since I discovered Not Just Bikes, my feed has more and more videos showing how much better life can be if we shut off car brain and build for medium density with mixed use zoning and multi-mode infrastructure.

Listen, if you believe that, then you also know that you just have to tell your local representative of Jesus that you did a bad and are really sorry and you're back in the heaven club.

Or, you realize that the whole concept is nonsense and there is no heaven and no hell.

Either way, fucking is great and you should do it premaritally to the max extent. Just remember to use protection, kids!

Sure, no shade on rural living for those who need the space. I'm more opposed the the forced ruralization of suburbia. This video popped up in my feed and shows how much better medium-density suburban living could be in many places.

New U.S. Army Shaving Rule Could Affect Many Black Soldiers

That's because it's been debunked and what you're sharing is misinformation.

Modern M50 has masks happily seal on a 1/4 inch beard. Additionally, if the intentions of this policy were protective rather than racist, why would they apply all the time? Making soldiers shave in garrison to be ready for a gas attack is stupid. They only issue masks when deploying, because nobody is about to gas Fort Hood.
