Footage on broadcaster NHK showed flames coming out of the windows of the aircraft and beneath it. The runway was also set alight.

NHK, citing authorities, said the plane may have collided with another aircraft after landing at Haneda. There are passengers on board.

It also reported that the plane, JAL 516, had taken off from Hokkaido.

That's a whole lot of bad

Some states do things like this. Minnesota has really high property taxes but offers things like their “Homestead Market Value Exclusion” that gives a hefty reduction in property taxes if you live full time in the house you own. If it’s an investment property, you pay the full rate but everyone who owns and lives in a single house pays a much more reasonable amount.

It's incredible when the loving USA has a more progressive tax system than my country

no, tanks as in confined spaces

they're pretty much tailor made to kill folk - made from steel so the rust eats the oxygen in the air, generally you have to lie down or at least crouch so you're right down in the descending gasses

and as noted your body has a co2 gauge FOR YOUR BLOODSTREAM, it's completely useless when you're inhaling an unbreathable atmosphere so you drop as though you'd been blood choked (which you effectively have been)

no warning whatsoever and you're out like a light and dead within seconds

Actually that's the one that will have you panicking inside cuz your body doesn't detect oxygen in the atmosphere, it detects CO2 buildup in the lungs.

Sure Meemaw and Papaw are gonna fill up Donnie's coffers to fight the woke or whatever, but every dollar he hoovers up is that much less that can go to the rest of the Republican party. They've already had multiple state parties coming up totally broke because Donnie is soaking up every dollar they used to get by being the chief grifter of the party. At least now that money goes to a real person instead of a fascist political party or a narcissistic conman.

Even with all those donations I don't think he's financially stable. He's been leveraged to the tits for decades and only survived by laundering Russian money then lucking into the presidency so he can grift one half of the country. A good solid whack like this at the foundation of his financial empire is gonna make a whole bunch of other stuff start going wobbly further up the tower and it's not done yet.

I endorse this situation
