It's really not going to be Boeing's decade, is it?

I'd be happy with going back to 2019 tbh

I'd like to say we'd do way better if we got a second go at it with hindsight, but we all know there's no fucking chance seeing how many people still think Covid isn't real.

And people that know it's real don't think it is a problem anymore. My roommate's partner was over for three days with a cough that "don't worry it's not COVID" then tested positive. I'm so tired of this, so many people buying into the idea it is over. My office tried to force RTO and at least part of why it didn't stick was because a bunch of people immediately started catching COVID. I didn't catch so much as a minor cold for over two years it was amazing. I don't get why people prefer getting sick all the time over the two seconds it takes to throw on a mask before going out or cancelling the occasional get together if someone has symptoms

On one hand we'd have the vaccine even faster, on the other the political and material reasons that made the handling of it terrible in many different places hasn't actually changed.

Boeing should just give up. Yuropoors are way better at metal bird building.

Well, if tightening the screws is all it takes...

I like the way her smartphone matches her shirt. That is one stylish lady.

Yes, and the calendar squares matches the yellow jacket design.
