🚨 500 PEOPLE BOARD THIS PLANE - ONLY ONE WALKS INTO A PRIVATE APARTMENT IN THE SKY This woman filmed a full walkthrough of Etihad's “THE RESIDENCE” on the A380. This is not First Class. It’s a 3 room suite in the sky: • Private living room • Separate bedroom • Personal bathroom + SHOWER at 40,000 feet There is ONLY ONE on the entire aircraft. While hundreds squeeze into seats… one passenger closes a door and disappears. How much do you think this costs one way?

It’s easy to call something a lie if your goal is to only cast shadow of doubt on a thing….to those who aren’t rational. But this isn’t a good look for you or your argument. I’d listen if you said what the lie was. But because you won’t, I have to entertain the idea you can’t.

@offgridteacher A huge mistake I made as a father and husband was allowing those things in our home. My wife initiated the discussion against them. I fully supported that. Then she went and bought them and I didn’t fight it after the fact. I deeply regret it. And so do my kids.

@ItsAMrY Okay, thank you Adam, I’ve been so adamantly against them, I feel like they do not belong in our household. No good can come from a child having a tablet in my mind, especially not one so young.

Well, my words have come to haunt me. Despite my best wishes, family bought a tablet for my toddler for Christmas. What’s the best way to delicately keep this from impacting my child?

@CLEsportsTalk Tom Brady. Not because of any physical talent. He had limits. And it’s fair to say the defense won many games for him. But he’s a Culture changer. And he minimizes mistakes. That’s what the Browns need.

@evrimmaymunoglu @elonmusk Nobody is forced to provide a platform for free speech. Elon is not preventing anyone from using any other platform. Else, YOU also don’t believe in free speech because YOU aren’t providing a platform in Turkey.

@elonmusk In Turkey, you’re shutting down the accounts of opposition figures unjustly. Which one of these are you? You’re definitely not the one in the first, that’s for sure.

I’ve said this for years. The advertising for this movie historically awful. I went to roughly 30 movies or more every summer. I never saw this in the theatre because I thought it was a sappy, lame romance movie. Of course now it’s an all time favorite!

Rob Reiner on how 'The Princess Bride' (1987) got a cult following after it didn't do as well as expected in the theatres: "We struggled to get the financing together but we finally got sixteen million bucks together and we went to England and made the picture. Oddly enough, the greatest appeal that it ever had in all the early screenings was for the teenagers. But, for whatever reason, we could never get one teenager to come to the movie theater when it came out. Maybe the title was too soft and sounded like some kind of soft, girly fairy tale. But when we prescreened it, the biggest response was from teenagers. It’s out on videotape, of course, and people have caught onto it because of that. But it’s like I’ve always said, you never meet anybody who voted for Richard Nixon and you can’t meet anybody who doesn’t think 'This is Spinal Tap' (1984) is great, even though we got crucified by the critics when it came out. But, somebody voted for Nixon. He got elected. And somebody didn’t come to the theater because we didn’t make money on Spinal Tap. It’s the same case with 'The Princess Bride' (1987). There’s a cult following and as the years go by people just pick up on it. It’s a film you can watch with your kid and not be bored. If you went by yourself and didn’t bring your kid, you’d still have a great time." ('The Directors Take two', Robert J. Emery, 2002)

In 1492, at this very hour, an American explorer by the name of Christopher Columbus joined hands with the pilgrims and the Indians to celebrate the first Thanksgiving and establish everlasting peace between the two parties They thanked him for inventing America

I really don't understand these posts saying the guardsmen shouldn't have been put 'in harms way' by being deployed to Washington DC. They're basically saying American soldiers are unsafe in the capital city of their own nation, as though it were equal to a deployment to a foreign warzone. Yet almost every major lefty account is parroting this narrative. It's bizarre. Like "of COURSE people are going to try and murder the National Guard, what did you expect to happen in Washington" Is this the narrative here? That Washington is Fallujah? Or is it that the left has declared a de facto state of war, and casualties are now just to be expected? It's extremely bad either way.
Jane Mayer@JaneMayerNYer

This is so tragic, so unnecessary, these poor guardsmen should never have been deployed. I live in DC and watched as they had virtually nothing to do but pick up trash. It was for political show and at what a cost.

Worst decisions/mistakes in human history: (1) The Mavericks trading Luka Doncic (2) Adam and Eve eating from the forbidden tree (3) The British wearing bright red coats in the American Revolution (4) Fast and Furious 9 (6) The Taco Bell Seafood Salad (7) Japan attacking Pearl Harbor (8) The Empire leaving an exhaust port on the Death Star (9) The Perm Mullet (10) The Chris Gaines alter ego (11) Portland drafting Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan (12) Burger King’s Halloween Whopper (13) Blockbuster opting NOT to buy Netflix for $50 million (14) Building communities next to active volcanos (15) Summertime Jorts Please add anything else that should also be on this important list:
Brett Siegel@BrettSiegelNBA

Trading Luka Doncic may just be the worst decision not just in the history of sports, but human existence…

A long, long time ago, an average moisture farmer could buy this house, support a wife and a teenaged boy, and still have money left over for a translator droid and an R2 unit. Today a two-income household can't even buy a passage to Alderaan for less than 17,000.

I’m throwing my hat in the ring for the GM or bare minimum assistant GM role for the @dallasmavs Here’s how you fix this team Miriam Adelson and Patrick Dumont. 1. Trade Anthony Davis to recapture ownership of first round picks over the next 4 years. 2. Keep Kyrie Irving because he’s an elite culture fit. 3. Apologize profusely to the fan base and to Luka Doncic and Dirk Nowitzki. 4. Build around your strong young contracts (Flagg, PJ, Gafford, Lively) 5. Trade Klay Thompson anywhere he wants to go, he didn’t sign up for this. 6. Fire the entire training staff and start over. 7. If Jason Kidd had any part in this trade send him packing with Nico. If he didn’t, allow him to clear his name publicly. 8. Lower ticket prices immediately. 9. Listen to your fan base, we know better than mercenaries that don’t care about this franchise. 10. Drop the lawsuit against our @DallasStars immediately My DM’s are open. At least I know how to treat my customers. This has been an unforgivable disaster. @dallasmavs @NicoHarrisonGM @BannedMacMahon
