I'm still a fan of Southwest, altho I definitely compare w/ others now, whereas I used to almost always go Southwest.

yay for the help from those in Miami - Residents in a Miami suburb

How incel language infected the mainstream internet — and brought its toxicity with it.

----- that was blocked, but I can only imagine. Making fun of people, belittling, etc., goes waaay too far

and another unexpected flash flood in another part of the country...

Not so sure about the NYC flooding. They’ve had issues for several years; you know, like Miami.

“Congressional Republicans blocked a Democratic effort to force the release of the Epstein files.”

“Newly uncovered metadata reveals that nearly three minutes of footage were cut from what the U.S. Department of Justice and FBI described as “full raw” surveillance video from the only functioning camera near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead.”

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!

Re NYC rain story:

“The Trump administration halted work on a new tool to predict extreme rainfall.

What to know: NOAA was developing a way to help predict how rising temperatures will alter the frequency of heavy rainfall. Officials stopped the project this spring.”

Yep. Let’s stop all the research about stuff we want to ignore.

That’s the way it works. NC beaches are washing away because of rising seas and crazier weather patterns so what was one of the first things the new republican legislature do when it took over in 2010? Yep. It rewrote all the information about coastal flooding and omitted any mention of climate change. Sure hope no one has a beach house right on the NC beachfront these days.

“member of an online community of young men who consider themselves unable to attract women sexually.” Pretty much the definition of a self fulfilling prophecy. Duh

And, oh yeah, the link didn’t work Bill

Truthfully, I’m very glad my flying days are all behind me. I did enough in 2022/23 to last for whatever time I have left.

as much as I tired of hearing about Jeffrey Epstein the dirt bag, the existence or not of files and client names and all the back and forth is like a train wreck, I just can't look away.
