Other than the war part of it, where do I sign up?!?!?!

Reminds me of a bi-plane jump I did at the World Freefall Convention in the mid-late '90s in Quincy, IL. Reach up, grab a bar attached to the wing, plane goes inverted, you hang from the wing and then let go. It was as cool AF as you might imagine. Second only to the Hot Air Balloon jump. The Jet was fun because it was a 727 but it felt like any other high and fast jump. But those two? Gold man.

That's a valid point too. [shrug] so there's just no predicting anything haha

100% this happening sooner than later is better for the women of GA.

But politically speaking, I fear this will motivate a republican surge this close to the election.

But again, in no way would I put the future politics of the situation above the lives that will be impacted right now by this decision.

Meh. That's what I have a propane grill with side burner for. I converted to induction 2y ago after being a gas-only zealot for years. I'll never leave induction now!

Fuck it. Ship them. They still aren't worth $100k and don't cost more than 100c. The grift is complete.

Not just the electronics one, but the chemistry one!!! Nfw you could buy one of those now. Surprised I didn't blow up the house, burn my eyes out, or grow a third ear!

Exactly. I like and play sports a lot, I get my competition there. I didn't need it in my games.

When were they there before? Why did they leave? ETA on completion, maybe before June 2025? I'll be there and would love for them to be complete by then.

I know right? I mean if they colluded to lower advertising prices through collective agreement that would be something. Especially if they had an internal forcing mechanism to ensure compliance.

But um, they set out voluntary guidelines they suggested everyone follow to protect each member's own best interests, and decided to spend zero dollars to buy nothing, which is a far far cry from trying to spend zero dollars to buy something.

What an ultra-maroon.
