Kaitlan Collins was today years old when she learned there is a crash ax in every airliner cockpit.

Worked hard to bring out the spiral bans of Andromeda using LRC. Canon R6 Mark 3. 2 second exposure , f2.8, ISO 3200, WB 3800. It started out as a fuzzy ball.

Data point: healthcare premium $1000/month, $9200 max out of pocket. $45 office visit. $150 specialist. $150 urgent care. $2000 ER. Don’t go to the fucking ER.

🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅 Offering Jet service between ORD & FWA is a transportation policy failure. Add in holding and it becomes just plane stupid. 🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅🚅

Why is the man that’s going save us from the socialists flying around in an old single engine V tail Bonanza—at night? Sounds like funding issues 🙃

I’m thinking all this warning by AI developers that AI is going to kill us is really an effort to divert attention from the fact that AI’s circular financial scheme is going to collapse and kill our 401k’s and bond yields .

1/2 In addition to being all the things stated, that profile flown resembles that of an utterly exhausted crew that simply wants to get it on the ground and go to bed—and don’t @ me that that’s no excuse.

We’re one “truth” away from them filling out our ballots for us…

$5000! Why, that’s 2 1/2 months of health insurance premiums!

I’m not gonna lie, after 45 years of flying you people around, I’ve fantasized about doing this a lot.

I wrote about Judge Talwani’s decision, issued late Thursday, entering a Temporary Restraining Order that puts Trump’s Executive Order on voting by mail back on hold. And I assess how it will hold up at SCOTUS, because we all know that’s where it’s headed. joycevance.substack.com/p/judge-talw...

A 12 oz bag of Starbucks ground coffee costs $15 at festival foods in Wisconsin. When da faq did this happen?

Oh sure, now they date down…I spent years try to convince them to date down. I guess I’m a genius before my time 🤷‍♂️

We’re at a really nice RV park that’s a 1/2 mile from a “sportsman’s” club an the incessant gun fire from 7a till dark is 🙃. How much does ammo cost these days.

I’m of two minds Regarding Chief Justice Robert’s decision today: A) Leave all of Trumps home improvements as a reminder of just how stupid the American Electorate was in 2024–their eyes should sting every time they visit DC. B) this is going to be so much fun to tear down and put back as original

Imagine trying to make a go of it as a beef producer and the president just flooded the market with below cost imported beef.

1/2 I want to get out ahead of the mob on this “near collision” between 2 AA aircraft in PHX. This same call sign happens more often than you think. It’s an airline screwup and if the fines were more severe it would happen less. This wasn’t a near collision.

I’ve been without WiFi since the 7/27 tornado. I’m getting along without the redundant internet but what I really need is the ability to print and interact with home systems that rely on WiFi. I went cordless years ago and I’m paying for it now.

Every month, as I write our $2,000 check for health insurance, I’m reminded by Tom Tiffany’s smiling face exactly who I have to thank.
