There’s a ridiculous amount of energy being released all at once with a burning tanker. Bridges are of made steel and concrete, not magic!

This is precisely the reason hazardous materials are banned from being transported in tunnels. A cars worth of energy being torched? Sure. A tanker carrying several thousand cars worth of energy is a different beast altogether.

A river died

Just one example of their bad acting. No worse really than the western world has done, but certainly no better

Y’all better start learning Chinese

Un-paywalled

It’s a fucking depressing state of affairs…

The Paris Fishwives march on Versailles is one of my favorite historical antecdotes. They basically walked up to the soldiers, disarmed them, then marched up to the king and court and told them what for!

Lol have you seen kids these days? I’d be surprised if more than 15 percent are fit for service, and of that 15% maybe half would pass a drug screen.

Of course it was Indiana, the Florida of the north.

So their options are to stay and be killed, or leave? I’m not sure the exact terminology to use here, but “voluntarily” ain’t it.

Aviation peaked with the Spruce Goose, AKA the Birch Bitch, AKA the H-4 Hercules. Been downhill ever since…

Fuck!!! Can we stop wrecking the planet for like 15mins? This may be the most tedious extinction event yet. At least with a comet you get a good show and it’s over relatively quickly. Fucking dinosaurs don’t know how good they got it.

Jesus. Ten of the hottest years ever recorded were the last ten. Its time for some major changes. If more people rode public transport it would be better.

All your objections seem to be about how inconvenient it would be for you. Sound kinda self-centered. Act like the only way to get by is to continue to conspicuously consume everything. Get a fuckin grip.

Edited with less profanity and name calling

He’s gonna die in a cage.

We’ve entered into a new political system. Hard to say exactly what it is now, but I suspect we’ve had our last free and proper election.

Or maybe he thought that was the wisest thing to tell a group of 18-20somthings. Not a demographic known for cool deliberation or self preservation. There’s a reason the draft starts at 18 but you can’t rent a car til you’re 25.

This. Not to mention china spilled a river of blood to keep n Korea Communist. Really the most realistic, best thing for the people of n Korea would be for China to topple the kim regime and set up a new government. Even Xi’s bullshit would be preferable to whatever cult theocratic bs they’ve got going now.

With poor grammar, lots OF ALL CAPS SO WE KNOW YOUR SUPER CEREAL. Just ramble on in a moronic stream OF CONSCIOUSNESS. All on a 2am twitter post.

N Korea will be around as long as it suits China.

Just take a piece of chalk and mark it down the floor. The Brady bunch had this figured out ages ago. We have the technology.

I had such high hopes for fetterman too. Like this guy could maybe bridge the trumpers to logic town. So disappointing.
