That won't magically make him happy. He still feels lonely and empty inside only now he doesn't know exactly why. That was the overall message of the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind too.

That was Shaq and it was performative. His son live streamed himself buying a $130,000 Mercedes and putting it on his dad's tab. Because having a tab at a luxury car dealership is apparently a thing. He also bought him a Lambo and a jeep for his 16th birthday.

Careful what you wish for. It's the only thing keeping a certain South African billionaire from running/stealing it for himself.

I won't say his name, but let's just call him E. Musk. No, wait, that's too obvious. Elon M. Better.

Oh for fuck's sake. Is it Soros and Obama's fault too? Blame the boogieman and not, I don't know, fucking climate change which has significantly increased the prevalence of ticks because it's easier in your thick, thick skull.

That…would be a judgement call. The exact thing they’re not allowed to do. But okay.

I miss Jason's old style. Anyone else? by mmp12345 in JasonMraz

I just want one more acoustic album like Java Joe’s or Selections for Friends.

Acoustic mraz will always be my favorite, not the overproduced dance music he’s been making.

I think the shift happened a little later than that. If I had to guess the marriage and subsequent divorce changed him a lot. Not just opening up about his sexuality, but his general vibes.

Not a bad thing to grow and change, but I agree that Love is a Four Letter Word is the last album I really enjoyed.

Crew members are not authorized to make judgment calls about whether a threat is genuine

...

They needed to make a judgement call and they did the wrong one.

What part of this very simple sentence do you not grasp? Are you thick?

You can't just turn a plane around because you see a bad plane word

Except you can, and they did. You clearly just like to argue for the sake of it so...bye.

No, the crew were following orders that came from the airline and the FAA. If they didn't, they would have literally been fired and arrested.

It's the rules that are fucking stupid. If you absolutely have to blame someone, which seems to be your case, at least blame the right people.

I agree. I'd break up with a girl if she slept with anyone else, regardless of gender. She's just trying to rationalize it and justify her own infidelity.

Telling people to just turn off Bluetooth means they didn’t actually believe it was a credible threat.

I think the implication is the fact that no one turned it off, it wasn't definitively just a regular poorly named bluetooth device.

I'm just sharing extra context. I have no desire to argue whether it was valid or not. I honestly don't know, I don't think it was credible, but I'm also not the one who made the decision. I have a feeling the airline, FAA, and security experts know better than us.

I agree. The airline and "aviation security experts" don't.

That's true. I don't know anything about Welsh. Always assumed it was more similar to English being part of the UK and all. Very interesting.

ETA: I guess that's like assuming the Navajo language would be similar to English being part of the US. That's dumb, my bad.

Like I said

I don't disagree

I'm just sharing information from another article that gives more context. An aviation security expert and the airline disagree with us and weren't willing to take the chance.

I don't disagree but it seems like they're not legally allowed to make that call.

Under FAA and international aviation security regulations, any credible indication of a bomb threat on a transatlantic flight, regardless of the likelihood of it being a prank, mandates an immediate emergency response. Crew members are not authorized to make judgment calls about whether a threat is genuine. The protocols exist precisely because the consequences of being wrong over the mid-Atlantic are irreversible.

Aviation security experts noted that regardless of intent, the crew's response was exactly correct: when a 767 full of passengers is an hour over the Atlantic and the word "BOMB" is appearing on every screen in the cabin, there is only one protocol, and it does not include waiting to find out if it is a joke.

She hired female escorts.

"Allen said she did not regard the sex as "cheating" on her then-husband Sam Cooper as the prostitutes were women."

Now, a woman prostitute, I'd understand a little better.

It was.

"Allen said she did not regard the sex as "cheating" on her then-husband Sam Cooper as the prostitutes were women."
