‘Flying Cars’ Will Take Off in American Skies This Summer The federal government announced a new pilot program designed to get new kinds of ultralight vehicles and “eVTOLs” up and running around the country—even if they’re not fully FAA-certified.

I see no possible way this could go wrong.

Full speed ahead.

These guys, after 2 years of mainlining hot dogshit on the daily, have accustomed to the taste.

They can't tell anymore that they're eating shit, they now think it's totally normal to spend all day fucking about very productively with a task they could have done in 5 minutes using their own brain.

Using chatgpt deskills you. It atrophies your reasoning and memory.

Part of the hype of chatgpt is that its whales, its biggest and loudest users, are no longer able to perceive that it is shit, that they are less productive than they used to be, etc.

Lisa Park, 29, literally died after running into her ex while he was on a date and saying, “Don’t have too much fun.” Like, what the fuck was that?

Antisemitic attacks, from Brooklyn to West Bloomfield, are hitting far too close to home.

Jews deserve to pray, and study, and send their kids to preschool without fear of violence, just like everybody else does. We will not cower in fear. And we will stand up to hate together. (3/3)

So the 'vote [my party] no matter who' discourse is insidiously making its way to Australian pundits' mouths. No thanks. We have preferential voting. Minor parties have an impact in the senate. If you want me to vote for your party, I'm going to need a better reason than 'the other party is worse'.

Lessen the power of the highly educated.

There it is, just stated out loud. Yet motherfuckers are still out here like "it helped me write an email" 🤪🤡

Suspect in attack at Michigan synagogue is dead, officials say Security officers at Temple Israel had "engaged the threat" that apparently started with a vehicle ramming into the building, according to Oakland County Sheriff Mike Bouchard.

Horrified by reports of violence at Temple Israel in West Bloomfield. We are thinking of those impacted and the entire Jewish community.

Everyone deserves to be safe and free to worship without fear. Anti-semitism and all forms of hate must be eradicated.

This is Lance. He may have overreacted a little bit to a leaf, but when you are two inches from the ground, anything could be a potential threat. 12/10 (TT: katiemhartline)

I mean, it's not actually a surprise that they think this; it's been pretty obvious for a while.

It is a surprise that they're stupid enough to say it out loud.

Also!

-Don't let anyone call parenting your own children "babysitting."
-Don't expect your beloved to buy the presents for/send the cards to the family you grew up in.
-ESPECIALLY don't expect her to plan your mother's Mothers Day - DOUBLE ESPECIALLY if she is, herself, a mother.

Your pal,
Hauser

Dear straight men:

I know society has socialized you to (unthinkingly?) expect that, upon moving in with/marrying a woman, she'll become your Second Mom (laundry, doctors' appts, packing, planning events, etc).

May I suggest that you buck tradition & set your intention to be a grownup, instead.

Once again reminding all the usual suspects that you don't understand how big the boats going through that strait are. You think you have an idea in your head of what size the boats are, but you're wrong. You're probably a whole order of magnitude out, even. They're so big, dude.

This was *the* case pro-Israel defenders would point at to say "See? Israel takes human rights violations seriously!"

And after all that — including mobs of Israeli rioters and politicians storming a military base to protest the arrest of these soldiers — it's being dropped.

i am so absolutely tired of everyone - media, elected democrats, liberals, "former" republicans - acting like something just turned recently in conservatism.

it was always like this. maybe you werent the target so you didnt notice it. BUT IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS.

People die because literal children were allowed to go "that sounds gay, get rid of it" to government programs.

Peter Mandelson asked for hundreds of thousands of pounds as severance pay when he was booted as ambassador. He was only entitled (very entitled) to £40k. But Starmer gave him an extra £30k on top and I think he should tell us why coz it’s OUR money.

And when he was born Hitler was still in power and the USA had not yet entered the war.

He predates Pearl Harbour.

True, yes, but also, did you hear that over 100 innocent schoolchildren were incinerated in your name?

"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids."

That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.

Zack Polanski blames both Conservative and Labour governments for regression in trans rights (EXCLUSIVE) Zack Polanski pointed to Conservative and Labour governments, saying there has been an “acceleration of that regression," at Trans Mission.

"It’s particularly horrendous to me when you have someone from within our own community who demonises a minority group. I don’t know what’s going on in Wes Streeting’s head, but what I do know is it’s terrifying for trans people,” he said.
