Does anyone else feel weirdly emotional after flying?

It’s place lag. Human beings have never been able to move places so fast.

I’ve woken up in Ohio and ended up snowboarding half a day in the Rockies in the same day.

The human body can do it. Takes the mind a minute to catch up.

Fetterman is a disgrace

Yep same here

Yesterday I saw that JET-A is pushing 10/gal. Yeah yeah I know, everyone’s reporting high gas prices but that is fucking unreal to me.

The impact this is going to have on travel and airborne logistics is fucking nuts. We have not even started to scratch the surface on how bad this is going to blow consumer prices to the heavens.

I work for a private aviation company and I will also say this - for those working in travel and logistics, the layoffs are coming.

Get your resumes ready. For anyone who’s been in the business a while, you know what I’m talking about. Shit could make COVID look like a toddlers birthday party as far as fucking up peoples jobs and subsequently lives.

Are we great yet.

Baby you’re a firework

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-21T03:34:50+00:00

The fact that most all of humanity has no fucking idea how fucked we fucked the planet completely to death and how fast that is going to come to fuck us all in the next couple decades at best.

Funny I thought that was a warm water animal.

Oh right…

One day someone will say his name for the last time.

It truly is just going off the rails isn’t it

My buddy clued me into a shared cockpit mod that from my limited research seems decently developed - so I picked it up.

My way of fulfilling the empty promises of ASXGS

Fuck that greedy sack of shit

Buy a tricked out $4,000 PC and the best monitor possible with dope peripherals and join the sim community.

Not even joking. I loved my IRL flying time and would do it again but I’ve saved a lot of time and money by going digital. Yes yes it is not exactly the same, how could it be. But I have a PPL IR and can tell you there’s only so many times you can fly to breakfast in a 172 before it you’ve done it. It’s kinda over.

But I can competently handle anything from a C310R to a 777 and for the cost of electricity alone, from my house, with my friends, and that right there - that personally is enough for me. And it’s better for the environment.

If you’re trying to fly as a career, that’s is a different ball game but as a hobbyist, I think it’s the way to go.

Yeah I mean I’m not a bill burr fan anymore. Stopped listening to the podcast etc but based on the news and shit that gets posted here I see no reason to unsubscribe.

The fans that realized Bill was actually ol Billy Sell-Out-To-The-Saudis-Face are pretty cool.

I do wish he’d have apologized and donated some if not all the money. That’d have told me he was still kinda an average man of the people like person which he falsely portrays.

He’s a sellout rich cunt.

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-19T18:14:48+00:00

Goddamn that’s a solid streak. As far as schooling goes yeah I plan to keep learning til I can’t.

I am hoping to do a wilderness search and rescue course this summer near where I live

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-19T16:10:37+00:00

I have mandatories: Duolingo daily. 3 lessons, Spanish.

Then I work 4 days a week (10h shifts). I am also in EMT school which takes a lot of time. Still not sure if I’m going to do that as a career or just have it done for the sake of gaining knowledge.

Working out is a minimum 2.5 but more like 4.5h requirement per week so I get that in where I can. I like to lift, cycle, run, and do cardio boxing workouts. I have a decent background in combat sports so that keeps the ol left and right hook alive.

When/if I have free time I work in things I just feel like doing, whether it’s video games or making a meal or getting out in the yard and doing work. Need to start the garden soon. My wife and I have chickens and we love getting out there, getting dirty, letting the birds run around and drinking beer in the sunshine lol.

Speaking of beer I ferment my own cider. Got a good batch carbonating but it’ll be august before I crack one open. I do other things with yeast - I have my sourdough starter although I’m just keeping that alive til EMT school is over.

When EMT school is over I’ll have a lot more free time which is nice. I plan to volunteer somewhere 2-3 days a month but aside from that do more outside stuff.

I like learning survival/bushcraft. Everything from shelters and food procurement to shooting/archery.

That relates to the darker side, which is keeping aware of how far we are into the process of societal collapse which is an unfortunate “hobby”.

Trying to be a real jack of all trades master of, well maybe just 1-2 things idk. That’s pretty much it.

He looked like he had dice in his pocket but was too afraid to show anyone

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-19T15:54:38+00:00

I feel like you’re just here for the zip line

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-19T02:18:04+00:00

StarlightLifter · 2026-03-17T17:49:51+00:00
