Wreckage of a U.S. Air Force B-52 Stratofortress brought down in December 1972 over Hanoi during Operation Linebacker II. (15 B-52s lost to SAMs). Now on public display in Hanoi.
The size of the fuselage and that mangled engine tell the story of one brutal night in the air war. Now a stark reminder.
These relics are incredible history teachers but they also force us to ask tough questions about war memory, accuracy in storytelling, and whether we’re honouring the fallen or just keeping old wounds open.
This woman registered to vote when she renewed her license in October. Today she was told she can’t vote except in a limited capacity. I’m gonna need Congress to put a phone in front of their face and explain this. NOW
We can live without AI. what we cannot live without is fresh water, farmers, agriculture, land. stop supporting ai because it is destroying our planet.
Young women were sold the lie that they have to take on student loan debt, get the degree, find the 9-5, and be that “boss babe.”
But they’re waking up — realizing that debt, work and loneliness are soul-sucking. This is not how we are supposed live.
American freestyle skier Eileen Gu complains she feels like a “punching bag” over backlash for competing for Team China.
Gu said she feels “like a bit of a punching bag for a certain strand of American politics”- while taking aim at conservatives who have branded her a “traitor.”

In the Netherlands, an old couple in their 80s committed suicide together to avoid an eviction from their holiday home.
Due to the housing shortage, the couple were staying at their holiday park bungalow.
However, they were set to be evicted and were hit with a 30,000€ fine by the municipality for overstaying the legal 6 month holiday home occupation limit.
They had nowhere else to go and likely couldn't afford the fine. May they have a better afterlife than this hell.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands is on track to house another minimum 100,000 immigrants at taxpayers' expense.

@TripleNetInvest Restaurants like this remind me of many types of national or regional retail operations. They go through a definite cycle that seems to last about 15-25 years. They are "in" with a certain generation. Then that generation moves on and the operation slowly fails.

In memoriam. My noble Civic has finally given up the ghost after 20 years & 230,000+ miles of glorious service. Engine block cracked. Still made it another 125 miles to my mechanic, with two stops to let the radiator cool & add coolant. Honda’s engineers are unparalleled. RIP
