At a certain point, I can’t help but think that one of these Billionaires is going to bump up against the point where money can’t actually replace skill, education, and experience. And then we’re going to have a very dramatic, very public, and very expensive, set of consequences.

Some of those that work forces…

I was always under the impression that you simply couldn’t open those passenger / emergency exist doors while the plane was in flight. Maybe the plastic cover of the door moved a couple inches, but I doubt the door itself did.

If these people had been brown, it’d be considered terrorism and they would be charged with material support of terrorism. At some point western nations need to understand that these right-wing terrorists are....well terrorists and treat them as such.  LOL, jk.  Too many police/ex-military would end up arrested, so…

yeah..sadly i have to agree w/you. The pretty stuff in WY is all-time pretty but a lot of the state has been through resource extraction hell and back. Coal is on the way out due to not being able to beat solar/wind on price anymore and fracking..well fracking is still big but not quite booming like it was.

Not to make light of this obviously dangerous situation but I’ll take a wayward reptile on my plane over a drunken anti-masker white trash every day of the week.

I feel for you. I used to regularly go Denver to SLC and back and, yeah, thats rough. I got stranded in Rock Springs in the last massive blizzard this part of the country ever saw in 2003. I got lucky as hell by stopping before everyone else and snagging one of the last motel rooms in town.

Having been stuck in WY before the thing in this article i most related to was putting a building b/n you and the worst of the wind. I-80 in particular through WY is just a few hundred miles of constant wind tunnel all year long. Its uncanny.

Many of the pussy truckers have children in the cabs of their trucks.  Can you imagine what a lowlife you have to be to use your kids as human shields?

yes better said than I did. 

Not any exact one but the hyper blinding patriotic ones just make my skin crawl. Over the top patriotism just to sell trucks is just so ham fisted.

QA supervisor: “Ehhhh, just ship ‘em. They’ll never notice. If they bitch we’ll just tell ‘em that they never said that the logo shouldn’t be printed on the inside. If they persist, try to convince them to use them on April Fools Day.”

3 cans of Lucky, 5 shots of Whiskey, an old work glove and the roach from your current joint.

Maple syrup stirred into a Tims’ triple-triple. Doesn’t burn well, but diabetes gets you in the end.

That at least involves consent by the user. I never consented to walking or driving around this half-assed AI tech.

If we homed the homeless we wouldn’t have all these problems.  But you know, we can’t actually help our nations citizens. That would be socialism. 

Dammit, my “Weird Nerds Jumping in Front of Elon Musk Taking a Bullet to Protect Him from Valid Criticism” meme won’t load :(

We stopped there back in December on our way out to California. My son had never been so we had to go.

I’m passing through the pan handle tomorrow (assuming they know how to clear the roads down here). A good friend back in Detroit recommended just yesterday that I stop at Buc-ee’s on my way through.

I came here to mention Buc-ee’s. That damn beaver is a marketing GENIUS. You stop for the bathroom (easily the cleanest bathroom you will ever use on a roadtrip) and maybe a coke and a snack... you end up leaving 45 mins later with 2 BBQ sammiches, a bag of bohemian garlic beef jerky, 2 cups of banana pudding, a bag…
