I'm just trying to find out if Greta Thunberg ever travelled on the Titanic. I didn't think she was that old?

If Greta Thunberg had access to a time machine, she would still choose not to travel on the Titanic. Partly because it was coal powered, but mostly because of the iceberg thing.

Are you actually wondering if a girl who is sixteen years old could have traveled on a ship that sank over a hundred years ago?

This is the thing you're not sure about?

Yes, the real environmental thing is not to travel at all. You either sail, or you stay where you are. There is no reason for you to travel to another continent.

For the sake of discussion I don't think of hiding from the raging inferno in near offshore waters to be leaving the continent.

As someone who was on the Titanic but survived I can assure you Greta was on the boat.

But we got into a fight recently over me flying sometimes and she blocked me so I can't prove it.

Does she not just step into a tanning booth (regular or spray)? Looks just like 90% of ugg boot college white girls to me except she doesn't dye her hair blonde.

She's a blackfish, someone who tries to make herself look non-white without directly claiming ancestry to take advantage of perceived clout in those demographics. She's dyed her skin until she was darker than Nicki Minaj before.

Yup. It's functionally identical to the way like, Larry the Cable Guy went from being some dogshit yuppie comedian in the 80s to styling himself as a redneck with various clothes and accents to get inroads with that audience, but because it's a white person doing it with black culture it gets thorny. Rule of thumb-- if the culture was historically oppressed during the Colonial era, prepare for judgment.

How did I even get here, son?!
I fly to West Africa frequently and a woman started punching my seat because I had it reclined. The flight attendant told her that I have the right to do that and I unreclined it when I realized what was happening.

Also, a frequent occurrence on these flights is going to the bathroom when the light says they're all unoccupied and opening one and apologizing/closing quickly only to move onto the next two and having the same experience. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk about flying on planes.
