I would cough at and on Jon Husted if I ever saw him in public.

The story of how Sabena, who received the final passenger-configured MD-11s in 1998, was lost is one of the sadder ones. The silver lining is Belgium has a successor flag carrier in Brussels Airlines, although they often seem to be an afterthought in transatlantic aviation.

So @abdulelsayed.bsky.social sent out this fundraising email among the dozens he sends every day. And I notice he’s being very very careful and deliberate to NOT say this… but that wide a gap between MI and the next state tells another story: National dems are not helping him and wrote him off.

I wish there was a way to filter out posts about sports teams I hate made by an account I otherwise want to follow but don’t want to totally mute. Truly, truly could give a fuck less about the college shit and particularly Ohio college shit.

Brightline is bankrupt. But it looks like it isn’t the end of the world for it either. Just goes to show that even when you have a successful corridor operation, you can’t cover massive capital costs with the low Margin profit. This is why 90% of all passenger rail worldwide is subsidized.

Can we please bring back one of the German camps just for people like this? I know I’m gonna get trashed for saying that but… there are too many people like this and they’re literal cancer on society. When feminists say women get made into simple objects, this is a very depraved exhibit A.

Rather than make a true semiquincentennial unit like all of their class one patriots, Amtrak decided to throw America 250 & freedom 250 decals on select units. The last few Thursdays 41/40 had one of the freedom units which I *WILL NOT* go out of my way to shoot. Tonight it’s gone. Two P42s on 41. 🙌

Amtrak P42DC 121 is on the point of train number 41, The Floridian, at Cleveland, Ohio on October 2, 2026.

Amtrak 82 is in the consist of train number 41 at Cleveland Ohio on October 2, 2026.

Amtrak Genesis class engines wearing the phase V and phase VII paint schemes are at Cleveland Ohio on October 2, 2026.

Well, this explains a few things. New research links stronger Christian nationalist views with lower cognitive ability, even after accounting for education. Turns out critical thinking may be Christian nationalism’s natural enemy. www.psypost.org/lower-cognit...

This type of thing makes it feel like end times are imminent. There need to be regulations prohibiting this but we’ll never get them. Best we can hope for is they replace all workers with robots if they can be taught to not even apply and fill the jobs. But it’s all poor and low info people… :(

It still feels easier to me (this year marks 10 fully vegetarian but my initial experimentation goes back to 2010) but I am noticing as well that some things in grocery stores and restaurants are vanishing. Vegetarian restaurants always seem to come and go due to costs. :/

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

This will surprise a lot of people, but I support what DeWine is doing. A simple check, engine light, which sometimes can come on when there is an issue that doesn’t heavily increase emissions, if at all, will fail the test, requiring a car to be repaired or replaced. This hurts poorer people hard.

Ironic that on the same weekend Nick Chubb comes back to Cleveland to retire, I’m now being forced to retire this souvenir mug of him from the one and likely only ever Browns game I went to in 2022 as it’s reached the point of cracking… Thanks for the memories, Nick. You were a rare good one.

Drove over this bridge many times. I didn’t realize it was getting completely replaced. Sad in a way but it’s a good thing to replace critical infrastructure like this every so often.

Insurers are complaining that "AI" is casing cases to be billed at higher rates. Hospitals/doctors/patients complain that "AI" is wrongly denying care even more than the humans did previously. This specific example is basically "Let them fight" IMO.

This not being a joint order is extremely disappointing but I get Alstom’s perspective fully. That basically means it’s almost assuredly going to be Siemens for Amtrak. Again. So lovely.
