Due to the nature of my work I've flown hundreds of passenger flights of all sizes and I still find myself in awe.

What a privilege to be able to actually see down from such a range of heights too. Where there is still lots of detail to be found, but you can also get an appreciation of scale. It's honestly really amazing.

Lest anyone think this is about policy or even politics - it ain't.

This is about the wrong guy getting the headlines. Simple as.

Spot on. This thread got me to rewatch it tonight and I gotta say, it hits even harder this close to the election. Almost painfully plausible.

It's not a true story, but it is a very high fidelity representation of reality.

In not alarming news...Maybe the annual tradition of pardoning a turkey will remain largely unchanged

Not as extreme as the case in the OP, but I'm often surprised how "meh" a reaction Don't Look Up got. Maybe people think it was heavy handed? Too on the nose? I don't know but most folks seem to think it was at best merely "okay".

For me, I place it next to Idiocracy as one of the most prescient films about what is in store for us. I think after this last election day, it seems even more prescient. On top of that, it is legitimately funny with really good performances, especially from Jennifer Lawrence.

I was a butt baby and I turned out fine.

My diet is mostly hair, but I suspect that's unrelated.

A very aspirational fancy chastity cage.

We as a country need to mentally prepare ourselves to owe an absolutely massssssssssive debt of gratitude to The Women.
