@Doctor-Phibes said in 2025 Pride - Day 4:

So spare me the bullshit.

What a vulgar little man you have become, everything is a personal insult.

It really is too bad.

Oregon middle school hosts 'Drag Day' encouraging students to cross-dress during Pride Week
Students told to 'dress like a drag queen or king and their 'queer hero' during school's 'Pride Spirit Week'

An Oregon middle school encouraged students to dress up as "drag queens" and their favorite "queer hero" this week in celebration of Pride Month, but one parent said families weren't notified ahead of time.

At the Arts & Technology Academy in the Eugene School District 4J, students celebrated "Pride Spirit Week" with a different theme each day intended to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, according to a memo obtained by Fox News Digital.

On Monday, students were encouraged to "wear as many colors as they could" for "Rainbow-Out" day. On Tuesday, they were told to wear all black "in remembrance of lost members of the LGBTQIA+ community."

A little more demonizing would be ok here.

There is nothing wrong with demonizing a demon.

@89th said in another airplane fuck up:

@Copper are the transmissions clearer when actually communicating?

I think that they are clearer when actually communicating.

The source of the recording will make a difference. A lot of what we might hear on Facebook or YouTube probably comes from this place:

Here for SFO

These live and recorded broadcasts are monitored and recorded by volunteers. I assume they have standards, but you get what you get.

You can go back and listen to recordings, but not all are available.

OK, so maybe I was a little harsh, I didn't calculate the actual pro/con post counts.

If you would like to demonstrate your hatred, please continue.

This forum has become almost nothing but non-stop rants about Donald Trump.

Most of it seems to be outrageous fantasy.

But even if it is all true, this place is sick.

Really.

perverts

Specifically, LMR packs will lower the cost of some full-size EV truck and SUV models to bring their prices closer to those of their gasoline counterparts.

It's great to see the progress.

But prices closer to gasoline counterparts isn't enough, the prices, for this untested technology, have to be better.

The early adopters have come and gone.

It's time to make a better vehicle (cheaper, more reliable, convenient) if you want to make EV the standard.

If the problem is "y’all smoking, y’all drinking, y’all cussing", why prohibit children?

A fair number of tncr people would not meet the "y’all smoking, y’all drinking, y’all cussing" standard.
And they are significantly older than 21.

Want a Big Mac? At this Virginia McDonald’s, you need to be 21 to dine in.

Not only do you have to be 21 years old to get into a bar, but also to get into a McDonald’s in Alexandria.

The fast-food joint in the Washington suburb recently introduced an age limit for customers looking to dine in.

A customer identified as Stacey shed light on the students’ behaviors that led to this new rule.

“These kids are off the chain,” she told NBC. “They have no respect, no discipline. And it seem like how they acting, their parents are allowing them to act.”

She added that while dining with her grandchildren, she observed older kids disrupting other diners.

“Like we’re sitting down eating, y’all smoking, y’all drinking, y’all cussing,” she said. “Like, come on, y’all.”

School Desegregation has ended racism.

There is no longer any need.

Times change, he has the courage to change with them.

We are so lucky.

And some say Mr. Trump will earn the Nobel Peace Prize.

Of course Mr. Obama set the standard for that prize.

Has Mr. Trump reached that lofty height? Time will tell.

@taiwan_girl said in Emir Force One:

the current 747

A plain old 747, even the latest models, only cost about $400M.

The new 747s being built to be used as Air Force 1 will cost about 10X that - $4 billion, or more. Air Force 1 is special.

Better than Pete Rose, and still alive. (The rumor is that Mr. Trump got the ban lifted).

He was banned for life, as he should have been.

After that, whatever.

De mortuis nil nisi bonum

The importer doesn't like tariffs.

Wow.

Mr. Trump points out that only a stupid person would turn down a free $400M plane.

He makes a good point.

We don't want a stupid person as president.

It is a difficult situation, but a nice gesture by the Qataris.

Maybe the Qatari plane exceeds the AF1 standard.

Wow, what a great president.

That's right nobody could coverup a 747 and a golf course.

But, again, just like the Statue, David Copperfield might be able to.
