In the news

I also had no idea she was before this recent spate of storiea. But of those TV shows and movies the only one I've heard of is Madame Web and that's only due to an the reviews saying how bad it is.

She was in the Handmaid's Tale. She was decent in The White Lotus and apparently she's good in Immaculate. She's certainly very easy on the eye. Is that anti-woke? I dunno..

Can't even admire actresses these days, thanks greta.

I thought actor was the gender neutral noun

I sometimes worry that I watch too much TV, but I haven't the foggiest who this woman with boobs is, nor any of the shows she's in

Not in a Sid James way.

I watched White Lotus on a Saudia Airlines flight so I was not aware of any cleavage.

She was very good in Euphoria

And In Reality which ironically is about post Trump truth.

She’s set to remake Barbarella, which I can’t quite figure out is a step forwards or a step backwards.

Maybe she’ll do ‘Barb Wire’ next.

I recognised her having just finished White Lotus S1.

She was pretty sick in it. Although tbh everyone was.

Also probably only the only Emmy nominee with a range of clothing made with Ford and Dickies that came from her love of restoring vintage cars

Dickies are a fashion brand now. No more cheap work wear.

Denver, yesterday. This sort of 737 display doesn't help Boeing's reputation with passengers: https://twitter.com/SweeneyABC/status/1777018698345120211

To be fair it's 100,000 to 1 poor maintenance rather than a design or manufacturing shortcoming. But Boeing is reckoned by some industry people to be one crash away from a catastrophic meltdown in the share price. If only they could get the credit they deserve for introducing al fresco dining.

FBI is investigating. Industrial sabotage? Criminal negligence?

The US military has such a big investment reliant on Boeing that it’s hard to believe the company will falter. That said, if what the deceased whistleblower claimed is true, more and more planes will have worse and worse issues as they wear and tear. Jeebus forbid an accident should happen, but if one does the company would have public opinion massively against them from the start.

Perhaps there's money to be made by sabotaging the planes and shorting the stock.

Perhaps there's money to be made by sabotaging the planes and shorting the stock.

In a not too distant strategy, current evidence points to a policy of managerial disregard for the actual planes, aiming solely at boosting production and stock price.

The first scenario sounds mad, and the second scenario sound like business as usual these days, but both have the same insane potential consequences.

Boeing paid a $2.5bn settlement to avoid a criminal charge over the 737 Max crashes. Two employees allegedly withheld information about faulty software. This amounted to "defrauding" the FAA.

March 2024 in #Hungary was exceptional: With an average temperature of
9.5C and an anomaly of +3.7C above the 1991/2020 norm, it was the hottest March on record. This follows the hottest February.

I am in shorts, t shirt and sandals and sweat like crazy cycling slowly. In Berlin.
My guess is we'll hit 30°C in some spots of the city today.

That happens with dickies every 15 years or so.

Same with carharrt
If you have any friends in the states maybe buy stuff from https://gemplers.com/

And then get them to send you a “present ”

Pls send heat it's fucking freezing here.

Will try. I already saw two topless gym bro idiots yesterday, can send those too?
You have cold and rainy, no?
Read that your potatoes are fucked.

Only 23°C on my balcony. But that's before it gets direct sun.
