  1. So what the fuck was Jan 6, dipshit?
  2. I've got a great vacation idea. Let's get in a sub on our next vacation. https://www.ajc.com/news/nation-world/tourist-submarine-sinks-off-egypts-coast-leaving-6-dead-officials-say-while-38-are-rescued/QM6THCCYO5A2JFC4D2LHTBOMYY/ At least 6 dead after submarine carrying tourists on a reef tour in Red Sea sinks off Egypt CAIRO (AP) — A recreational submarine taking 45 tourists on an underwater cruise of coral reefs in the Red Sea sank off the Egyptian resort town of Hurghada on Thursday, leaving six Russians dead, the provincial governor said. The remaining tourists, more than two dozen of whom were injured, were rescued, he said. The cause of the sinking was not immediately known. The Russian consulate said it took place about 1,000 meters (0.6 miles) offshore. The submarine was carrying 45 tourists and five Egyptian crewmembers when it sank, Red Sea governor Maj. Gen. Amr Hanafi, said in a statement, adding that rescue teams were quickly sent. He said all six dead were Russians, and that 29 of the 39 tourists rescued were injured and taken to hospitals. No one was still missing from the vessel, he said, suggesting the crew had also been rescued. Hurghada is a major destination for divers, snorkelers and other tourists drawn by the Red Sea's extensive coral reefs. The submarine, named “Sindbad,” runs 1- to 3-hour tours, usually cruising at about 20-25 meters (65-80 feet) underwater with panoramic windows on the bottom to give views of the marine life, according to the website of the company that the Russian consulate identified as running the vessel. The company did not respond to phone calls seeking comment. Russia’s Tass news agency earlier said the Russian dead included at least two children, citing the country's consul in Hurghada. The consulate had said all 45 tourists on board were Russian, but the Egyptian governor said they also included Indian, Norwegian and Swedish citizens.
  3. Market it as giving the homeless electricity and the shit will pass.

  5. The document isn't coming through so not sure what is in the scope of the study. Is the $50B to bury all lines or strategically to bury the lines which are more at risk for being downed? I highly doubt that it's the latter. The solution doesn't have to be all or nothing.
  6. Fuck you if you voted for this bullshit.
  7. So, who's going where this year? I'm spending Aug and Sep in Pagosa Springs. Wife and I really liked Golden/Boulder last year but I have a soft place in my heart for PS. The San Juan mountains views simply cannot beat. Looking to play a lot of golf, do a ton of hiking, maybe climb another 14'er or 2 or 3, chilling on the river, eating a few meals at Meander Eatery (incredible restaurant), driving/exploring Colorado for the views, enjoying the cool mountain air at 7200 feet, and most importantly, getting the fuck out of Texas and the oppressive heat.
  8. Congrats on having a very smart daughter. Surely it's from the mother's side. Ft Collins is a cool as fuck town. But any of the 3 Co college towns are cool as shit.
  9. Isn't the an incel mantra?
  10. Might want to start deleting. But let's be real, the company has the info backed up and will sell anyway. Deleting won't prevent shit. Its "assets" includes your very personal DNA information. Yay you! This just reaffirms my belief that nothing good comes from volunteering your DNA for this shit. Best scenario is you confirm the status quo that your parents said you are who they said you are. Worst case scenario is a choose your own adventure book. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/03/24/millions-of-peoples-dna-up-for-sale-as-23andme-goes-bankrup/ Millions of people’s DNA up for sale as 23andMe goes bankrupt Customers urged to consider deleting their data after genetic testing company collapses Millions of people will have their DNA data put up for sale after major at-home testing company 23andMe filed for bankruptcy. The company, which has tested more than 15m people’s genetic makeup using post-in saliva kits, including more than 250,000 in the UK, announced that it had entered US bankruptcy protection in an attempt to sell the company. It said that data privacy would be an “important consideration” but added that it was seeking to “maximise the value of its assets”. Privacy advocates have urged consumers to delete their 23andMe data as the company’s share price crash has raised concerns that the data could be sold off to data brokers or to target adverts.
  11. We should start throwing motherfuckers from the motherfucking plane. This self important fuckstick should've been the first.
  12. I'm looking for the video of this dude going through someone's windshield.

  15. Nacogdoches. That's all you need know. When Texas gets it's long overdue enema, the hose will be connected somewhere in East Texas.
  16. Trump Highway going right through Austin https://www.kxan.com/news/texas/could-i-35-in-austin-be-named-after-president-trump/ You’ve heard of Trump Tower, but what about the President Donald J. Trump Highway? That’s the proposed designated name for Interstate 35 in Travis County, according to a new bill filed Friday by Texas Rep. Joanne Shofner (R-Nacogdoches). The bill outlines the design and construction of markets “indicating the designation as the President Donald J. Trump Highway” alongside any other existing designations.

The proposed legislation also calls for the addition of markers at each end of the highway as well as “at appropriate intermediate sites” within the corridor.
  18. I think it may have been a bad idea to create a miles long death zone with concrete walls on the NAFTA highway where 1000s of 18 wheelers travel daily.
  19. Not sure if this is an AI generated joke news article. https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/news-life/white-woman-who-identifies-as-black-plans-to-move-to-africa/news-story/685427e62b2daecf05b02699df2f6205 White woman who ‘identifies as black’ plans to move to Africa A German tanning enthusiast who was born white but identifies as a ‘Black woman’ has shared her plans to “move to Africa” because she “feels a deep connection” to the country and its people. But first, she plans to get more surgery. Martina Big – who goes by the name Malaika – previously sparked controversy when she revealed she uses melanin injections and her at-home tanning bed to change the colour of her skin. The 36-year-old model has faced severe backlash over the years from people claiming she is wearing ‘Blackface’ and say she will “never be Black”, according to Jam Press. Now Malaika, who naturally has very fair skin and blonde hair, is planning to relocate to Africa with her husband, Michael Groß, 38.

  20. Detained Canadian shares her story. I have no idea how we got here. I do but am amazed at the insanity of it all. Like with all this bullshit. Someone is making a shitton of money from it. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/mar/19/canadian-detained-us-immigration-jasmine-mooney The reality became clear: Ice detention isn’t just a bureaucratic nightmare. It’s a business. These facilities are privately owned and run for profit. Companies like CoreCivic and GEO Group receive government funding based on the number of people they detain, which is why they lobby for stricter immigration policies. It’s a lucrative business: CoreCivic made over $560m from Ice contracts in a single year. In 2024, GEO Group made more than $763m from Ice contracts. The more detainees, the more money they make. It stands to reason that these companies have no incentive to release people quickly. What I had experienced was finally starting to make sense.
  21. Decades ago, we were driving home from clubbing in Houston. Saw a 18 wheeler hit a car pinning the car into the concrete side. Car catches on fire. 18 wheeler driver jumps out of his rig. No one comes out of the car. In 2 mins, the car and the 18 wheeler were fully engulfed in flames. I was amazed how quickly the thing turned into a bonfire. Anyway, after watching the surreal scene with the whole freeway which had stopped, we go back to our car. It's a convertible with the top down. My high as shit friend says, "Awesome, there's dead body ash falling on us." Sure enough, ash from the fire was falling into the car. Then my high as shit friend starts laughing and chanting, "DBA, DBA, DBA!" Me: What the fuck is DBA? Him: Dead body ash! Yeah, we were fucking idiots back then.
