So I crawled into bed and had just dozed off last night and was then awakened by pounding at my door. Hard pounding. I grabbed my man cannon and with each step the pounding got harder. I didn't know what to expect. I jerk my door open and there's my neighbor telling me the forest is on fire and at our back doors. I could see the raging flames and glow and thick smoke. So I get dressed real quick and go evaluate. Its bad. Huge walls of flames in the forests south of me within 100 yards. My neighbors were screaming and bugged out. Its so bad that it looks like we're about to be overtaken so I order my wife and kids to grab what they can and get in the vehicle. I grab a few of my guitars and guns, my wife grabs our family photo albums and whatnot and load it. I drag out water hoses and hook them up because I ain't leaving. I'm going to send my family out but I'll stay and try and save what I can. Then the fire crews start pulling in. Then a rollback goes by with a burnt-out car on it from down the road. I was waiting for the power lines to fall. I have a dozen fire trucks in my yard along with bamberlamps. Water hoses going every which direction. A makeshift water pool set up by my driveway.
Its been very dry. We're in a major drought right now and have been for a while. Lots of fallen leaves everywhere. Keep in mind, the wind is howling 30-40mph the whole time stoking the flames. It inches closer and gets bigger and bigger. My heart is breaking because I'm about to lose everything. Irreplaceable things. My wife & kids sit in the vehicle in the driveway awaiting my signal to GTFO. At this point I join the fire crews and start fighting this monster. The tops of trees are on fire and fire bats flying every which direction as if its trying to spread to other parts non-disturbed. Then a shitload of seasoned firefighters show up and we finally get it under control.
Life can change quickly. One moment lying in bed, then the next walls of flames everywhere with the threat of losing everything. Its a helluva thing to wake up to. Then about 5 am we got some needed rain. There's a handful of crew still here finishing up this morning but I can still see flames. We got lucky this time. Praise Hitler
I tried a B727-200,737-200,747-200 for Boeings. And I tried an Airbus A320, A330. I noticed a very stark difference in the way the two fly. This may be biased since all the Boeing I flew were build before 1975 (roughly). The first thing i noticed is airbus has this really annoying habit of flying for you. It's like if a plane had the arrogance of a Frenchman, with the engineering of a German. It also tends to do sporadic, dumb shit no one asked it to do.
Conversely the Boeings had a tendency to lean down towards the ground. My guess is the center of gravity was towards the front of the plane. However, after some getting used to, it was easier to fly a plane from 50+ years ago, than a much newer airbus. What I find interesting is the 707,717,727,737 all share the same airframe. They only changed the frame from 747 onwards. Im picturing someone just used MSPaint to stretch the 737-800 by copy pasting the center fuselage.
What I loved on the older planes is the lack of glass. Everything looked much simpler and intuitive, easy to use. I know Boeing has gone down the automation route too, and a lot of planes have crashed because of it. Sometimes I wish we would go back to older plane formats, and focus on manual navigation, and actually having the pilot do stuff the old way. Too much automation is killing the aviation industry.
As a 1993-vintage militia-conservative and anarcho-capitalist, I want to thank the Deep State Liberals for what they did to GEOTUS (God Emperor of the United States, Donald J. Tump.)
If the Deep State Liberals had behaved ethically, GEOTUS would be months from leaving office without ever locking up even one of them. Instead, they stole an election from him, prosecuted him, convicted him of felonies, and gave him PTSD. Now he is out for blood.
If the Deep State Liberals had not stolen the 2020 Presidential Election, Trump would have been limited to 2 terms. Now that we have 100% proof of election fraud in every election in our lifetimes, elections are no longer a credible way to select leaders. Even if you think the 2026 and 2028 elections could be fair, Trump has an out: The 22nd Amendment would have banned GEOTUS from running for POTUS a third time after serving 2 terms as POTUS, but the Deep State Liberals did not complain when he ran for a 3rd time and won for a 3rd time. They had their chance in our adversarial system, and they blew it. Now it is too late to argue against GEOTUS serving the 3 terms he was elected to.
If the Deep State Liberals had acted ethically, nobody in power would have wanted to destroy federal law enforcement agencies; they would have wanted to use that power. The desire to obliterate power you could wield only comes from PTSD, like the cops gave me when they sexually abused me. Now that the FBI spied on our GEOTUS just like they spied on us anarchists; now that federal law enforcement has waged war against GEOTUS and his supporters like they waged war against us anarchists, we have people in power with PTSD who genuinely want to destroy those agencies.
If the Deep State Liberals had acted ethically, Trump would have been another country-club Republican and left the American Empire alone. Now that GEOTUS is back in charge (and suffering from PTSD,) he has appointed an O-4 from the Army National Guard as SecDef to disassemble the American Empire and convert us back to a Constitututionally-based militia system.
Can someone please explain to me what Infowars did wrong as to be sued into oblivion? Aren't people allowed to express their opinions, crazy or not? How did he lose everything just because he said some mean words?
and when i went to the timmies the indians normally on staff are just gone
instead of four indians standing around bullshitting there was one softspoken chinese guy and somehow the service was faster
i'll need to visit on another shift on another day to check if this observation holds, but trump winning and the news that illegals wont be signed for is making all the cheap customer service indians vanish like the wind
