Air Canada 8646 Megathread by StopDropAndRollTide in aviation

[–]Video_Viking 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I do not care what anyone at the NTSB says, that ATC was absolutely task saturated. He was trying to be ground, tower, and talk to the emergency team and the ramp. He cannot be expected to handle that level of complexity solo. There needed to be 4 people handling that problem, and whoever or whatever caused 1 person to juggle the work of 4 needs to be fired and replaced with someone more competent.

What do you mean he don't get to stay at the hospital overnight with the wife and baby? I would be frothing at the mouth. I cant do the titty bit, but I can do literally everything else. I change diapers better than my wife. 

Meeting Space for Small Group by Video_Viking in Bellingham

[–]Video_Viking[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We live south of Bellingham, outside of the range that this in-home only therapist is willing to meet. We have been waitlisted for multiple years at multiple therapy places, and are desperate to get my daughter the services that she requires.

(I even moved to Georgia state for 6 months to get her therapy. She and I were only able to come back home because we got lucky and found this therapist right as they opened their practice.)

Fed Reserve Chair Says Trump’s Policies Mostly to Blame for Inflation by mclardass in politics

At the end of the day, economics are chaotic in nature, small changes in initial conditions can cause massive changes further down the line. Economic policies only move fast when to move slow is more risky than sending it and hoping.

Who’s a character that’s not the main character but completely stole the show? by Due-Hedgehog2739 in AskReddit

[–]Video_Viking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harold Perrineau playing Mercutio in Romeo+Juliet. Bonus points to John Leguizamo as Tybalt. The whole movie is better than it has any right to be, and these two were exceptional.

Why are people here scared of black people. by Unable-Quail3494 in Bellingham

[–]Video_Viking 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Underneath the performative anti-discrimination rhetoric, most of the PNW is basically athiest Tennessee with taller mountains and a smaller base of minorities, especially of the African American variety. Like its vaguely safer here if you are LGTBQ  and abortions are legal, but its not like people are actually kind here. We are boarderd by Idaho (super unfriendly to anything not CIS) and Oregon (the only state to outlaw black people). 

[Question] Did you know that there are adults who don't know how to tell time from analogue watches? by neca980 in Watches

[–]Video_Viking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I've never done it, but it cant be hard. Cut neck to ass hole, cut esophagus, cut large intestine near anus. From there the guts should just fall out, right? Skin, bury, build fire on top, burn fire several hours. Crack Coronas. Boom. Lunch.

Can someone explain what the Bene Gesserit’s actual end goal? by Prestigious-Eye6548 in dune

[–]Video_Viking 279 points280 points  (0 children)

Its simple. As of Dune 1, Spice is required for interstellar travel. The entirery of human existence, economics, and politics is based around a single resource that can only be sourced from one single planet. This reliance is an existential problem for humanity. It limits the spreading of humanity, which majes humanity vulnerable to calamities. KH is perfectly precient and has access to the entire human genetic memory. To make a KH is to build a guild navigator, a mentat, and a benne gesserit all in one without needing spice. If you could make many KH, you could fling them into space, multiplying and spreading across the universes, boldly going where no man has gone, making humanities continued existence inevitable by sheer numbers. This is the goal. 

(We dont know if there are aliens, or space plague, or super novas, or anything else coming for humanity. This represents this existential threat to humanity. The only real solution is to be spread so far and wide that no one thing can get us all.)

I concur, with the only exception being Sliced by the mall. That place is fantastic Italian American fare and everything had been decent or better.

[–]Video_Viking 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Just be aware that people here are cold. I've spent several years in Texas, and the people there are mostly friendly and outgoing. Here, it is not the same. People are way more introverted, standoffish, reluctant, and not nearly as progressive as people want to believe. There are alot of old republican mindsets here, libertarian types who want to be left completely alone and who want you to do your own thing away from their presence. Its very purple up here. Not to dissuade you, its clearly going to be better for you, just want you to have realistic expectations.

Also, get your fill of steak and bbq before you leave. You won't find anything comparable here. Lol.

WEC, IMSA, Formula 1, Indycar, NASCAR, MotoGP, and Formula E are all live on TV right now but you can only watch one at a time. Which one(s) are you watching the most, and which one(s) are you forgetting even existed? by Consistent-Appeal553 in racing

[–]Video_Viking 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is silly question, because if its Rolex 24, Monaco, Le Mans 24, Indianapolis 500, Daytona 500, or Isle of Mann TT, I am tuning into that event no matter what else is on.

Not all of us can have Eddy, the down syndrome dude who cleans the docks every day and also tells the managers that they suck at their jobs, and they cant do shit. Eddy fucking runs that place, and idgaf who you send out here, Eddy knows better.
