I’m still not sure who is winning at using the other, Trump or his supporters in office?

Yup. It’s insane that RFK Jr. is the youngest of the candidates (all candidates) for POTUS at 70. 70! He’s the *youngest*!

I agree 100%, turn 70 in office and you finish your current term.

Biden is more or less harmless because he hires adults.

You know that he’s Donald Trump and he endorsed that message.

Is anyone shocked that the off-road/wannabe off-road vehicles ride poorly?

South Dakota, not San Diego?

They don’t understand that they’re infringing on the rights of others to not have to witness their brains splattered across a windshield, road, building, other people, the other person, etc.

Get caught riding on public streets with no helmet, bike is towed/confiscated and the rider gets to figure out how to get home and get the bike out of impound.

Elon Musk does it wrong so much, I’m amazed he can get anyone to fund “his” ideas anymore.

I would bet on getting fixed.  It’s a young hull, and a neo-Panamax.  It’ll take months in a dry dock, but it’s very likely cheaper to repair it.

There’s little change in the tasks to be done when underway vs at an anchor.  There’s always something that needs to be fixed, cleaned, re-painted, etc.  It’s a steel vessel in an environment hostile to steel.  And the crews are so small now that there’s rarely much idle time when on shift.

They likely have satellite internet service. They’re hardly out of contact.  And phone calls can be routed through that service.  How do I know?  I used to work on ships and we had satellite internet service and phones on-board.  It was slow (no streaming videos) and there was quite the delay (phone calls were painful…

And there’s also a strong likelihood that they’re on long contracts.  Most mariners work 9+ months aboard and then have a month or two at home.  They rotate through as the ship makes port around the globe.  And I don’t believe that they swap the entire crew at once.  

I knew I’d seen something like this before, but it’s not the one you mentioned. I did find it, the Eurocopter X3.

Because that’s how you prove the claim...

I drink carbonated water. Arguably less effective than a crushed calcium carbonate tablet in water, but I think it tastes better.

And Tonic, don’t forget the Tonic.

Not from the Goop brand crystal goblet was was in Gwyneth’s vagina and is guaranteed to smell like that forever?  Mmm, vagina scented alkaline water...
