We demand to be taken seriously

I’m inclined to think no way Boeing would be insane enough to kill off a whistleblower then remembered eBay recently responding to mild criticism by sending cockroaches & bloody pig masks to their house & it ended up with multi year prison terms for some eBay management, and will probably result in a nine figure civil settlement.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

It wasn't their mistake, it was the mistake of a distributor. Still hosed up tho.

The starlink/starshield constellation cannot cause a meaningful Kessler syndrome. They're right at the edge of atmospheric effect and require onboard compressed gas to maintain orbit. Even a massive Kessler syndrome at that altitude would clear out quickly enough to be a problem, but not a catastrophe.

Those stairs are steep and long as gently caress and wearing dress shoes as well was definitely pucker-inducing. At least they weren't wet at time. Can't imagine doing them in heels.

Though if you are a politician, you are probably used to wearing dress shoes all the time and I wouldn't be surprised if they get some kind of grippier sole.

gtfo with that, no way. Do you mean to tell me that the hundred dollar pairs of low quarters - with rubber soles that disintegrate after five years - sold in Clothing Sales stores are gauche and unthinkable?

That is a perfectly normal pace to descend stairs.

Those satellites are going to be under the direct control of the NRO, they're not giving Elmo, or SpaceX, access to top secret reconnaissance assets.

Chunkier rubber ones are OK if they are worn in a self-aware way and the shoes cost more than the rent of whoever helped fit them at the store.

I have also ran down the New York Public Library stairs and that was terrifying as well, albeit in a different way.

The person walking directly in front of Biden and setting the pace of the men’s decent down the steps is GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson. On Biden’s right is the Prime Minister of Ireland, Leo Varadkar.

This has got to be a fake account. He’s literally just walking carefully down some stairs.
Besides identifying the people they should have posted a loop of Trump trying to drink water or tripping on the stairs to the plane.

Biden and Trump should have a race to see who can skip down the stairs fastest.

Everyone wants to see that.
