Hmmm...mix vinegar and water together and simmer in a pan until all the burned bits are soft enough to scrub off? No gently caress that let me kill myself and my cats.

Uhg I woke up with nightmares today so I figured I'd share with ya'll. I saw somebody get hit by a subway train yesterday in Philly, it was horrible. He was high as hell on something, probably K2. I looked over at him like "This dude is a danger to himself..." and then less than a minute later somebody shouted, and I look back over and the loving dude was trying to get a cigarette that fell on the tracks.

Ten seconds later a train starts coming, and people are yelling at him but it was too late, he basically just froze and started like, trying to motion to the train to stop but it couldn't fully stop in time and it ran him over before it came to a halt.

Then the horror started. The train shut off for a second and we could hear him moaning and screaming for a few seconds before the train backed up. By the time the train had backed up to expose him, he wasn't making much noise, but he was still alive and it was horrific. He is legs were flat in a couple of areas and twisted up like a mess of ropes, he couldn't move anything except for an arm which he was kind of shaking up and down while he half-cried and half-moaned. EMS and firefighters were on the scene a couple of minutes later but they couldn't get to him until the power to the tracks was confirmed to be shut off, so they were yelling to him not to move until they could go down and get him.

He lost consciousness for a bit while they were loading him on to stretcher but then he woke up again and started crying for a bit before he was silent again.

Awful, awful stuff. I can't find anything in the news about it, I guess because of COVID there wasn't really anybody to report it? Uhg, anyways I cannot stop seeing his twisted up body, I don't think there was any way he could have lived much longer and I kind of hope he didn't anyways, his injuries did not look compatible with life at all.

So yea, do not jump into the subway because you saw a cigarette, guys. It's not worth it.

wow that sounds profoundly traumatic, if i were in your shoes i would run (not walk) to some kind of brain professional and talk-puke out those nasty thoughts. Here's a review of some online resources for dealing with trauma, for anyone itt who might be curious about such things.

Willfully damaging company property. That's a write up. No I can't think of a better way you could have handled that. Now go piss in this cup since there was a collision.

Quick translation of the first paragraph:

quote:

A serious industrial accident occurred on Saturday afternoon at the Liebherr premises in Rostock's overseas port. According to the police, a heavy-duty crane mounted on a ship buckled during a heavy-duty test after a rope broke. Parts of the crane fell onto the ship and onto the quay wall. According to initial findings, five people were injured, according to a police spokeswoman. Two of them had to be treated in hospital. The police and fire brigade were on site with a large contingent. Investigations into the cause of the accident are continuing. Investigators have not yet been able to provide any information on the extent of the damage.

Well yes, they managed to throw two cranes in the harbour during loading and it took two months to get them out. Including fun hazard stuff with 10 000 L of oil and diesel that had to be pumped out first. :v:

Its actually pretty easy to read - Pronunciation rules are pretty strict, you don't have a lot of stuff where like, C is pronounced 14 different ways depending on the word like in English.

Airports typically have shotguns for scaring off birds, you could probably clear the area and blow a tire out pretty easily, but if you do it wrong you’re just going to make it roll over into the plane. At least ramming moves it out of the way.

Crane accident reminds me of this:


https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20120216/downtown/wtc-crane-accident-drops-construction-material-onto-truck.amp

It happened when I was working in 1 liberty plaza. When people in the article say how loud it was, they weren’t kidding. It shook my desk on the 24th floor. I no-poo poo thought someone set off a truck bomb. I can’t find any articles with photos of the truck it actually landed on but I saw it on the news back in the day, there were pieces scattered from hell to breakfast. Crane accidents are no joke.
