What, you want to open the plane up with a Boeing opener? No need for that, the door plugs pop out on their own. For your convenience.

2.5) anyone who won’t claim to be a fundamentalist Christian

I think that brand of shoes is at least somewhat designed for the elderly to use. I didn’t know they had ‘no-tie’ shoes but the pair of ordinary Sketcher’s sneakers I have (w/laces), which are great, have this fabric loop thing behind the heels that I think is supposed to help people who might struggle to get them on their feet. You can put a finger in the loop and haul them on if you need/want to.

Loafers (no laces) have been a thing forever. I often wear “boat shoes” or “docksiders” which come with leather laces that you pretty much never tie/untie. These shoes are effectively loafers for most people and are super comfortable.

"Right-wing militia whack job"s who for the most part are Christian Fascists as well. For example, https://antiauthoritarianplaybook.substack.com/p/the-christ-church-movement-in-moscow

It would be like poetry without rhyming, it’s too easy.

Walt Whitman and many other poets would like a word. Bezos the uneducated, uncultured sycophant putting his lack of knowledge on full display.

Four have been destroyed in the conflict so far, including three shot down by friendly fire over Kuwait

Among the other incidents recorded in the report are the crash of seven KC-135 stratotanker aerial refueling aircraft over friendly airspace, which could cost around $1.8bn to replace based on US Air Force budget estimates for previous replacement purchases.

In total, the 42 planes include four F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jets, one F-35A Lightning II stealth fighter, one A-10 Thunderbolt II attack aircraft, seven KC-135 Stratotanker refuelling aircraft, one E-3 Sentry AWACS surveillance aircraft, two MC-130J Commando II aircraft, one HH-60W Jolly Green II rescue helicopter, 24 MQ-9 Reaper drones and one MQ-4C Triton surveillance drone.

The cost of replacing the aircraft are estimated to be around $7bn but valuations of the planes (some now out of production) and their potential replacements vary widely.

This sounds like Operation Epic Incompetence to me. Shot down by friendly fire? Crashing in friendly airspace? But no worries, $7B of additional debt-funded, taxpayer-guaranteed dollars will be flowing to the Regime’s buddies in MIC companies.

Excellent suggestion. Used to love driving/riding that way and stopping in Poulsbo at the Poulsbohemian coffee shop … which seems to be closed now! WTF! :-( I remember liking Poulsbo’s small-town hippie vibe and it’s about the same size as the small hippie town I grew up in in Vermont. Bremerton was not cool at all (military vibe) but maybe it’s changed. I used to imagine the Peninsula to be the home of rednecks and wealthy retirees but I’ll have to check out the R.E. scene this weekend on Zillow. Tnx.

“Trans people. We are legion. Expect us.”

I somethings fantasize about moving back to the Puget Sound area. I wouldn’t want to pay Seattle prices so would probably be looking at the South Sound. I lived in Tumwater for a year and it was bland but Olympia is liberal and a bit weird so that’s probably where I’d be looking. Bonus for the still-employed: state jobs, bonus for me: already got a paid-up membership to the food co-op there.

Don’t forget, if they’re young enough and cute enough, sex slavery awaits, just like in the gulags. Republican perverts (redundant I know) and pedos will get first pick, and at low-low prices.

Ha ha, “According to Harvard alumna Nancy Berliner (白铃安), during the construction, one incident involved a raccoon that entered the storage room. The Chinese craftsmen killed it with a shovel, skinned it, and cooked it for food.”

I want to read a story about how this guy does something like that. That would be newsworthy.

*eccentric

But yeah, I thought this was going to be about having a house built in China and then loaded on a boat and shipped. A manufactured house or maybe a doublewide. But no, the guy just bought fancy house materials for cheap by skipping the middleman.

Clickbait.

My vintage appliances just became much more valuable.

With some help from her government-issued boyfriend. That “face” is really stuck on.

Concentration camps.

Coal-burning power plants are among the largest sources of hazardous air pollution, including mercury, lead, arsenic and acid gases, as well as major sources of benzene, formaldehyde, dioxins and other organic hazardous air pollutants.

“you’ll continue to see hamburger innovation as we move throughout the year,” Cook said.

Everyone eating real food elsewhere due to a lack of “hamburger innovation” at Wendy’s, raise your hand. Thought so.

Imagine popping out a kid today. The kid’s going to live until what, 50 or 60 maybe, if they’re lucky, because of all the pollution plus anthropogenic global warming?
