“Reports of a giant white spy balloon in sensitive air space in Montana, home to one of the nation’s three nuclear silos”

According to the Reuters article there are 150 silos in that area alone.

Tibet and Taiwan would like a word.

Last night the military said this was not the first time this has happened and it goes back to “previous administrations”. Haven’t heard yet that it was only Biden and Obama terms in office.

Well

“China is a responsible country and has always strictly abided by international laws, and China has no intention of violating the territory and airspace of any sovereign country,” Mao said.

I would not be surprised if it had been used elsewhere, forgotten/abandoned/lost contact with and happened to drift over (much like their rockets). Nor would I be surprised if it had been intentionally sent.

I get that Linda, and please understand that you’re my favorite editor here - by a mile. I love your work, your tone and especially how you’re willing to wade into the comments here with us morons.

I’m with GundamLord on this, I couldn’t really get into the animated series, and the more the show leans into them whilst arrogantly assuming that we know who these characters are, the more I want to just stop watching. I don’t want to have to google who this new character is that has just appeared on the screen and…

“Tongue in cheek, but as a frequent flyer, children should be banned from flights.”

You know that these people watched the show Squid Game, which has in its first episode has people play a game for money and like 80% of them are gunned down on the playing field playing Red Light Green Light, and then went . . . “Hmm . .. I could do that” and then were shocked when the horrible experiences in the TV…

“the misfortune of others”...? Are you meaning the people who got an all expenses paid trip (and additional compensation) to be on a TV show, or the people who read your comment?

The term “human dial tone” should be exclusively reserved for people who sign up for anything resembling a Squid Game reality game show. 

Thanks, I really appreciate your support!

You mean the gameshow based on a TV gameshow that is supposed to be unfair is  . . . unfair?
