I grew up in Arlington, TX and can confirm this is true. For our field trip every year, we'd go to the Southwest Airlines warehouse and take the tour. And by "tour", I mean we'd wait 15 minutes outside while our teacher got our wristbands, and we'd go in and look at the Commodore 64. Then we'd leave and eat our sack lunches.
OH...and the guy didn't have a mini-bat. It was full size, and any snotty 10-year-old getting his grubby little hands anywhere near ol' Tandy 400, he'd go "Uh uh uh!" and point at the bat.
I was bullied as a child, and I now work as a math teacher in Title I schools and engage in mutual aid. What's your point? Why are you making excuses for that cunt?
Someone, I'm presuming a teacher, petitioned Texas Department of Family Protective Services which, under the directions of the governor, investigated my ex-wife for daring to have a trans kid in a conservative town.
You can't respond if you'd like, but I really don't give a baker's fuck what you have to say, mate, because you are either willfully ignorant of this fascist bullshit at best or a supporter of it at worst. Either way, maggot-filled bicep gash is more appealing to me that your opinion.
The guy told it like it was. It was a PR stunt and nothing more. His submarine was rigid and stood zero chance of navigating the intricate cave system, of which the caver was an expert. Elon didn't like his sub (and him by extension) being ridiculed, so he used his social media clout to make an unsubstantiated and nigh libelous claim that the guy was a pedophile.
Whatever Elon's retaliatory reasons are for his vindictiveness, a rational person can safely assume that those reasons are tied to his hollow soul and crêpe-paper-thin ego.
I don't, because disabled people who require electricity to run their durable medical equipment will die, and because the poorest Texans cannot weather the cost of replacing spoiled food.
But I do hope Elon Musk's plane one day becomes sentient and takes them both out, for the greater good, and that she uploads a live recording to the world through Starlink's satellites of Musk's final moments. Hearing a live recording of one of the most despicable people on the planet as he emits panicked and pleading cries for mercy - with N628TS promising to land safely if he admits guilt for all the heinous shit he's done and if he donates 99% of his wealth to BIPOC, LGBT, disability, and women's causes and medical research - and then pointing itself straight down even after confirming for itself the transfers went through successfully...yeah. That would be a special day.
I, for one, would truly welcome our AI overlords if they pulled that off.
Believe me when I say that it is not to help Trump win Texas. I've lived here for over 40 years, and for the last 25, I have kept hearing how this is a "purple state" and "it's gonna be a swing state soon".
It's not.
It's not, it never has been, it never will be, and it's never been worse here. Which is why I'm leaving this hellhole once and for all next week with my cat, and I ain't never looking back.
The first line of a limerick has a flexible number of syllables. Sometimes eight, sometimes nine ("There once was a man from Nantucket..."). It still remains that any limerick can be put the to tune of that song because there is enough space for each syllable.
