    I'm a thirty-something dandified man with a wife, two kids, and a stable job. God, how I wish my parents had raised me right. Due to their non-judgmental, supportive parenting, I never had a chance to be an abusive rapist like I was meant to be! I mean, I never even once groped a classmate without permission. I never even spewed a "make me a sandwich, woman!" comment on an online forum! And all that time, I was caught in a net of self-loathing, seeing the women in my life having it so much easier than me, what with their superior pay, lack of sexual harassment on a daily basis, and numerous other advantages. Well, all that nonsense stops with me!

    While I may be a lost cause, I'm going to raise my son right, and use this book as a guide to do so! By God, my son will be in prison for rape by the time he's 20 years old! My son will be feared and loathed by my daughter and wife due to the way he treats them! In short, my son will be a MAN, something I've never been! Thank you, Doug, for showing me the way to raise him right!

    i present the XF-84H Thunderscreech.

    kZJO8XH.jpg?1

    that's right. the Thunderscreech.

    Widely acknowledged as the noisiest aircraft ever built, the Thunderscreech was crafted to test the possibilities of supersonic propeller-driven planes. even at idle speeds, the tips of its tri-prop traveled at faster than the speed of sound, emitting 900 sonic booms per minute.

    For a plane whose designers hoped to employ it aboard Navy aircraft carriers, the fact that noise levels caused 'profound nausea' in crew members and service personnel was a bad sign.
    “One day, the crew took it out to an isolated test area [at Edwards Air Force Base in California] to run it up,” recalls Henry Beaird, a Republic test pilot at the time and one of only two men ever to fly the -84H. “They tied it down on a taxiway next to what they assumed was an empty C-47, but that airplane’s crew chief was inside, sweeping it out. Well, they cranked that -84H up, made about a 30-minute run, and shut it down. As they were getting ready to tow it back to the ramp, they heard this banging in the back of the C-47.” It was the crew chief, Beaird relates, knocked silly by the high-intensity noise and on his back on the floor of the –47, flailing his limbs. “He eventually came out of it,” Beaird recalls.

    “As long as you stood ahead of or behind the airplane,” says Beaird, now 78 and flying Learjets, “it really wasn’t so bad, but if you got in the plane of the prop, it’d knock you down.” Really? “Really.”
    “Edwards was worried that the noise of the airplane would break the windows in the control tower,” he remembers. “The runway’s about a mile from the tower, but they’d put blankets over the top of the shelf where the radios were, and they’d get up under their desks, under the blankets. Nobody ever actually recorded the decibels. I think they were afraid the measuring device might get broken.”

    The airplane was not popular at Edwards and is to this day rumored to have caused several miscarriages.

    Well, maybe. The NRA used to be all about responsible gun ownership, most people used to own guns as either collectors or hunters.

    With the Black Panthers being the most prominent open carry advocates at the time and the recent spate of high profile assignations both Reagan and the NRA teamed up to make gun laws stricter. To make sure that guns were kept for hunters and collectors. However, there was a shift in culture after this, now people tend to buy guns for self defense (these people also tend to not know how to use a gun safely). Even if you had the same situation today (black groups being armed and high profile assassinations) the NRA's answer now would likely be 'even more guns.' After all, 'only a good guy with a gun can stop a bad guy with a gun.'

    Well there's this: #BlackOpenCarry

    In Texas, blacks are protesting police violence in a particularly Southwestern way: By invoking their right to open carry. On Wednesday, more than 30 members of the newly-formed Huey P. Newton Gun Club gathered to march through South Dallas with rifles, shotguns, and AR-15s.

    or there's this:

    Personally I'm glad to see them shaking up the structure of the show. This past season has felt super stale and like they're becoming more and more like some kind of procedural sitcom. The two teams rarely collaborated, it was like two separate shows mashed together.

    I'm looking forward to the next iteration.

    Yeah, I can see that. But I liked those three, and am sorry to see them go. Seems like there might be other ways to shake up the structure of the show other than reverting to a previous format. And I really hope they're not bringing back a 'folklore anthropologist' to talk about the origins of the myths.
    Which doesn't sound bad, but the person they had and the format they used was not good.

    Two Japanese players invent a new game inside of Mario 64 - activate a 1up mushroom from a tree then attempt to gather all 8 red coins on a level and collect the star without letting the 1up mushroom reach you. Since the mushroom chases you very fast and can fly anywhere, this is extremely difficult.
