Has anyone considered that they should build the bridge out of the stuff they make airplane black boxes out of?

What if they made the entire bridge out of fenders?

They should replace the bridge with a Hyperloop.

If you're going to get federal funding for the new bridge, then at least do it right. Hold a bridge designing contest where elementary school kids can send in their drawings.

World's largest popsicle stick bridge.

Yeah it's really lovely, from what I read it seems like they were both critical condition but one has already been discharged and the other is still in the hospital. (maybe?)
I don't imagine they'll find the other 6 until the wreckage is salvaged, probably too dangerous to dive into some of that twisted metal. All sucks.

1 left against medical advice, presumably because they are undocumented and/or terrified about the cost of treatment, so not a great outcome on that one.

You are probably right and it’s so loving sad

A few years ago my husband had a ruptured eardrum and was told he need to follow all the doctor's instruction on care because if he didn't he was in danger of permanent hearing loss (It was really bad) if he didn't take this special antibiotic.

So, I go to the grocery store to fill it in our neighborhood I live in a gentrifying neighborhood where you are basically either upper-middle class/rich or poor, there is nothing really in between. Anyways, I go to pick it up and they say hold on, we need to talk to you privately, but I need you to wait a minute so we can check these other people out. I was just like, what the gently caress is this bullshit, whatever. So I wait, and finally they pull me aside and very compassionately and discreetly say "This is a specialty medication, after insurance, it's going to to be, I don't remember but like in the $100 range, do you still want it?"

I think that is where it really sunk in how hosed our healthcare system is on like a personal level. Yes, of course I want the medication, no, my husband is not going to lose hearing in one of his ears over $100 with health insurance, WTF?

Really any of the USCSB videos are a great way to find out that you can die horribly in ways that you have never imagined:

I guess one of the containers that fell off the ship was full of fur pelts because they are washing up everywhere this morning. There’s about to be some thrift stores and pawn shops full of some nasty rear end fur.

It's fine, just boil them.

wait the dudes are still on the ship??? just chilling???? they didn't like, evacuate?

The crew accommodations on ships lake that I believe are generally pretty decent. Nothing luxury but people have spacious private rooms with en suite bathrooms, internet, plenty of storage, a chef preparing meals, full gyms, DVD libraries, etc.

Not the Four Seasons but also probably not your first apartment out of college.
