Checks out. I remember someone gave me advice when I got married that said "Just because you are right, doesn't mean you have to prove it". I was like, you'd never survive in TNCR n00b!!!!!!!1

Boeing is under federal scrutiny yet again, but this time it isn’t for midflight door malfunctions, faulty wheels, or makeshift lubricants. According to an audit released on October 29th by the Department of Defense, the beleaguered aircraft manufacturer allegedly up-charged the Air Force nearly 8,000 percent on spare soap dispensers for its fleet of C-17 cargo planes. https://www.popsci.com/technology/boeing-soap-dispensers-audit/

"the nazis were in shape!" lol

So, who did you vote for and was it difficult to write "Arnold Palmer's cock" without laughing?

For taxes, I saw this chart. Have no idea how accurate it is. [image: 1730342772828-19d5165b-8c87-4b3e-9fc1-e275f3250e32-image.png]

If the Chinese will weld their own people into buildings and tell them breathe or die, I suspect they wouldn't bat an eyelash at a little economic turmoil.

Stuff like that is just awesome!!!

@89th said in Shit show: In the US, a Supreme Court clerk makes like $50k a year. But after a year, they're often offered $400k signing bonuses and $200k+ salaries at law firms. Getting a SCOTUS clerkship is like a golden employment ticket. Prestigious job here also, but it does not convert to a private job after that. Alot of them stay for a while as a Supreme Court clerk.

At least he wasn't posting memes on FB. Lock him up.

@Aqua-Letifer said in The Genie: “Sydney Sweeney resonates across broad demographics.” Marketing VP dirty talk for you. Broads like her too? I guess I can see it.

No. Just no.

@bachophile said in Today's medical mysterie.: Ugg. The guy has gas forming bacteria in his arm. If he doesn’t get debrided soon he will go into septic shock, lose his arm, and probably his life. Exactly. Even I saw it. And, as far as AI goes, there’s no fracture. Nice jog, Grok.

Agreed, enjoy the show, don't think about how it all connects. That might make it hard to enjoy, but the acting, music, and action do make it fun. Here's a much better visual about it all connects, obviously SPOILER CITY: https://i.redd.it/j2t2ib0ve6xd1.jpeg

@George-K said in Don't forget to turn your clocks back: @Axtremus said in Don't forget to turn your clocks back: Yoko Ono is outdated. Her music has withstood the test of time. of course that may simply be because no one ever play it so it can't wear out.

In the early 1980s I flew PanAm between Frankfurt and Moscow a few times when the Lufthansa flight was booked solid. I recall the cabin service being perhaps a step or two above Aeroflot, but in the basement in comparison to Lufthansa. Best European airlines I flew were KLM and Finnair. The latter, when possible, was always my first choice.

I'm not sure how the federal government can pass laws dictating how the states will run their voter rolls. Have to admit I'm not very educated on how all that works together, but I suspect that is what the 6 justices' decision might be based on.

@89th said in The Kamala Krowd: I have a friend who went to the rally. From pics I'd say a good 50k people were there, maybe more maybe less, who knows. Honestly, my immediate thought was... "aren't these people getting deja vu from Hillary's final speech in 2016?" [image: 1730293710680-85b58006-5e9f-49cf-967a-979a7b064296-image.png] I see a sea of shit. So much shit - apostrophe - the porta-potties had to be overloaded with that large of a crowd.
