  1. lol 20-30 minutes later 🫠
  2. That dude, a lot sooner than most 😬
  3. For the east coast I’d say it was nuts. It was shaking entire structures. Every other time we had an earthquake I never felt it. This time there was no mistaking it. Crazy
  4. We’re all gonna die!!!
  5. I thought it was a truck or construction machinery but then things started really shaking and moving 😮
  6. Here’s finally a story https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/newyork/news/earthquake-new-york-new-jersey/
  7. No joke, Fridays I work from home and my entire apartment just started rumbling. I thought maybe a heavy truck was driving by but then the walls were shaking and the floor was waving like it was lava. lol no emergency broadcast not nothing 4.8 is kinda strong
  8. Judge Cannon is doing everything she possibly can to help Trump win his case https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna146166
  9. Immediately I thought you were talking about Buzz Lightyear
  10. They started the complicated process of removing the mangled parts of the bridge https://apnews.com/article/key-bridge-collapse-baltimore-port-maryland-3edebfb3b7fb48fd81be81cf69ebfbf5
  11. I think I missed my calling of creating Standardized math tests for the public school system
  12. I shoulda been a teacher I tell ya. Probably math. Could you even imagine? 😆🫠
  13. Let’s see the Eiffel Tower is 984 feet and a female humpback can be as long as a school bus at 45 feet I cannot do the math a humpback can eat up to a ton of krill a day. a fully loaded cargo ship at 300 tons can feed a fuck of a lot of humpies
  14. Probably no to both. I have been on that bridge on both upper and lower levels and the experience is always less than great, but more than finishing dead.
  15. The band or the Dune people?
  16. I cannot do the math. ever since Duo Math became a part of Duolingo, I forgot about the math part. Someone else way smarter can do it 😆
  17. male humpback 80,000 lbs cargo ship max weight 300,000 tons(?) I think we’re gonna need some more humpbacks
  18. Well, we better get used to shit like this happening more often then, and next time we might not be as lucky as we were this time
  19. I was just now thinking about how much that would probably cost. Like w cruise ships, when it’s time to leave port, it’s time. Too bad for anyone not on the ship when it’s time to go. The reason is 100% $$. They get charged by the ports or whatever (idk how exactly that works) for being late I really dislike capitalism it ruins everything. No one can be bothered to gaf how unsafe ships weighing about the weight of 100000 humpback whales are for our infrastructure and ocean life
  20. Still it’s hard to conceive that regardless of the weight, we build things that can be taken out if one support is taken out. If there is no way to prevent this maybe we need more regulation? We don’t allow vehicles of just any weight on our roads. Maybe we shouldn’t in our waterways as well.
  21. Idt it was an intentional act doesn’t mean it wasn’t preventable.
  22. I still don’t get how a ship can hit a single support beam and take down an entire bridge. I get that it’s a moving object that’s extremely heavy but damn I thought engineers thought of situations like that when they build things Idk maybe this speaks to the crumbling infrastructure in this country. Train derailments highway collapse and now this bridge what is it gonna take to fix it? The total destruction of an American town? The poisoning of Palestine OH wasn’t warning enough, I guess
  23. What does this even mean?
  24. We did stop in GA and TN my Mom (msrip) was a huge Elvis fan. I’ll never forget the yellow Volkswagen rabbit without power steering my parents drove on that trip. I’m not altogether convinced that National Lampoons Vacation wasn’t based off that shit. In Alabama we stopped in a diner they had the Brooklyn bridge on the wall. The waitress was so blown away that we saw that bridge all the time. This was the 80s. Shit was different. I guess life still had some mystery back then. Didn’t know what grits were before that trip. The mysteries of life.
  25. There really aren’t a whole bunch of decent wealthy people out there. You never really hear about them. Once in a while you’ll hear about the successful company that doesn’t exploit their workers, or that one generous CEO, but more often it’s greed, exploitation and straight contempt of the law. If you won the lotto and just lived off the winnings maybe you wouldn’t become a monster, but if you wanted to make money with your money….idk
