Anon flies air Chad
You missed the chaddiest part.
Got two of four engines running. Climbs to set up for landing, one engine starts surging and flaming.
After losing all engines, nearly ditching at sea with no engines, the elation of getting something back and not knowing what will happen with the other one, with 250 lives on the line they shut it down because they know they should.
Good thing a 747 can carry balls of that size on one engine

TIL that the Māori word for autism is "Takiwātanga" meaning "their own time and space." I also learned that it's not without controversy (see inside).
Maori here, two things to to put into the arguement.
1, Maori language does not directly translate word to word. One of my kids name translated directly to English is "destroyer of houses", however the meaning behind it is a guardian and protector. Kura urupare may translate directly as gift inside head, but there is likely deeper meaning - im unfortunately not fully vursed in the meaning of this one.
2, the Maori language is dying - if people want to use a word that works for them, provides understanding and expression or brings it into common use then go hard. Use it as much as you can, fuck the purists.

If the only thing Biden ever does is keep Trump from office it will be a net win.

If you suddenly had "fuck you" money what would be the first thing you did?
Tell my wife I now have "fuck you money", and then fuck her lots because she could quit her shitty stressful job and have energy again.

4-Year-Old Fatally Shot By Woman Who Was Teaching Her 'Firearm Safety,' Authorities Say
Look, I'm one of the first to say Americans are dangerously obsessed with firearms, but this wasn't a firearms issue - it was straight up murder. This wasn't an attempt to teach with any sort of responsibility or following any safety at all. If anyone tried to teach my kids firearm safety by sticking the barrel in their chest they would be decked.
First rule - every firearm is loaded. Every. Fucking. Firearm. Is. Loaded.

What is the attraction to kids?

This is something many people fail to realize - while society hates it exists, it is just an urge the same as my desire for women. We have just grown as a society to say this isn't right (correctly). There are many who have the urge, and don't follow up on it but its still there and they are a victim as well.
Fully agree though, this does not excuse those who act upon it, promote it or sell it.

Biden introduces Zelenskiy as ‘President Putin’ at Nato summit
Im sorry, im just not getting this.
You're worried about someone who says some dumb things when the other choice is a convicted felon, known sexual abuser, who's actively fighting the democracy you stand for and first act as non-president was to try overthrow your government.
Trump should be in prison or hung, and you're comparing him to someone who says dumb things. TRUMP IS A THREAT TO HUMAN RIGHTS, GLOBAL STABILITY AND THE FUTURE OF FUCKING HUMANITY.

MEGA THREAD - Trump shot but safe, 2 others killed at PA rally
Reply in thread
I know you have to say this, but holy shit do I disagree.
This person advocated significant violence and contributed to the deaths and loss of human rights of thousands. A good whack of the world would turn up hungover to work tomorrow after celebrating only a few inches over.

That oscillated quickly.
See, this is the stupid our feeds should be full of. Not more of American politics stupid.

Auditor says several college majors indoctrinate students and should be defunded
TLDR:
"Urban Studies, Anthropology, Sociology, German Literature, African American Studies, Gender Studies and Women's Studies". I'm sensing a bias here.
Also that state funding should match workforce demands for the state - this part makes sense.

Couples should be limited to a maximum of 2 children, in the whole world.
Hard disagree - you're effectively controlling people's body autonomy the same way as abortion bans. Let alone the confusion of differently structured families (what if the woman has two and a new husband wants one??).
Controlling wastefulness, development for the future and education on the other hand- absolutely. Side effect is that better education usually leads to smaller families, and that's before you also include sex ed and access to contraception.

US says it is talking to Israel about safe passage for Gaza civilians
Reply in thread
Well it removes the "Palestinians are in an open air prison" arguement. Also gives armed forces less places to hide and if they choose to wipe out Hamas they can pull the "anyone who stays is a combatant" card.
There are civilians on both sides who just want to exist and get out of conflict - they need a chance.
TBA how well it goes.

My gf (f23) found an old video of me (m22) with an ex and wont talk to me now.
Reply in thread
She literally went to try find something from an ex relationship abd then got upset she found it. You made that at the time you were with the person - I know my wife has a diary that discusses her exes when she was with them, and there is no way in hell im going to look into it.
You're in your second relationship so I'll fill you in on a detail from the outside - this isn't normal relationship behavior.
