A Palo Alto company has launched more than 4,000 of its "smart" balloons. Looks like one of them smashed into a United 737.

Everyone was OK, but the pilot did tell passengers, “The aircraft has collided with an object and a window in the cockpit has shattered"

Yeah, the data shows that white women consistently support Trump about as much as white men do.

About half of the votes that Trump received from white people, were from white women.

Because white women turn out to vote more than white men.

So his base is "white people," not "white men."
🤔4B movement against Trump? That makes very little sense.

Again, the majority of white women voters, voted for Trump🤷🏿‍♂️

37% of voters are white women, who voted 54% for Trump.

34% of voters are white men, who voted 60% for Trump.

So white men contributed only ~2% more Trump votes than white women.

It's been unbelievably disappointing to me to see filmmakers like George Miller and now Alex Proyas being so pro-AI. I see them as scabs

When the message is about economics and "working class" white folks will talk a good game then back candidates that support the message with the obvious blindspots that come from being privileged.
That just means no matter the economic system, the marginalized will be the first thrown to the wolves
