I find this so insulting. He has no idea what goes into ensuring 189 souls + crew fly safely through the troposphere. Who cares what passengers wear? Why on earth would the DOT? Don’t insult us, guy.

I wish one politician, left or right, would genuinely say “you aren’t rich. I don’t care about rich people, everything I do will be for you, not them”. Once that boulder gets pushed down the mountain it’ll rapidly gain momentum.

I love this movie. Surprised nobody has mentioned that “A Complete Unknown” is basically a full length version of the Dewey’s Bob Dylan scene from the movie.

Upon visiting 🇺🇸 over the summer after 5 years in 🇮🇹 I couldn’t get over how loud everything in the city was. Half the time you can’t have a conversation on the sidewalk.

My $.02 is Trump’s coalition is miraculous and once he kicks the bucket each faction (religious, nativist, xenophobe, techie, business) is going to scramble for dominance and none will catch the same lightning in a bottle. I can’t believe it’s worked and it’s gonna be a mess when it unravels.
