AFAIK multiple ppl died stowing away in the wheel compartment. So yeah, that’s not impossible.
Also, chartering or piloting your own small plane should bypass that, often.

they fly a lot internally, also. sadly, they’re not exactly known for good railway.

Sush. Don’t say things like that or they’ll make the characters in anine explain their every single thought or decision, even in mid battle.

- Comment on YSK that Chris Hughes, one of the founders of Facebook, says the company must be dismantled 4 weeks ago:
Since it’s US based, I’m pretty sure it will soon go down with the rest of the nation.
Maybe trump will nationalize it, to make his propaganda posts always show at the top or some other fascist bullshit.

Given his age it’s a 50/50 chance. It took very long to get rid of hitler tho. I would wish the American people a sooner resolve.

He will do it after a year of bombing Venezuela. He’s a big fan of hitler, so he will likely also start an unwinnable multi front war.
- Comment on YSK that you can/should budget yearly for long term purchases 5 weeks ago:
well, it doesn’t have to be random physical things, but could be tickets for events, gambling, etc. i like to gambke a bit on the stock markets, for example. it’s like horse racing, but you can decide where the finishing line is.
- Comment on YSK that you can/should budget yearly for long term purchases 5 weeks ago:
okay, but what if you die in an accident and didn’t use up your money you worked hard for. would be a real shame. the thought alone makes me want to be immortal
- Comment on ideas for deadspace behind fridge 1 month ago:
also, that light switch box space sawed out of the door frame must be some kind of crime idk 😆
- Comment on ideas for deadspace behind fridge 1 month ago:
you could make it a dumbwaiter for cans, kegs, beer/wine crates or a laundry lift, but then the fridge can’t be directly in front.

this reminds me. in the early 90s summers we all wore those tight bike shorts, a loose tshirt and optionally sunglasses and a hip bag. no matter what gender. virtually everyone. worldwide. i went to other countries; the other side of the world to visit remote family; they all had multiple sets they wore. it was cheap and colorful. it felt like the future

that headline is so stupid. everyone who has found a sea urchin skeleton on the beach knows this is way too oversimplified.

creepy af. first thing i’d do as an employee is make an account with another bank and set up monthly transfer, so the contract is fulfilled, but all they can see are those big transfers.

- Comment on British Airways pulls Louis Theroux podcast sponsorship after Bob Vylan interview 3 months ago:
There will definitely be ppl offended by “death to Russians” and I find it highly questionable, because there are a few hundred good russians who haven’t been killed in the gulags so far and they do not deserve being slaughtered with the rest.

oh wow, what a blunder. don’t they like double check? you know, like four-eyes dual control principle, like we do at work for everything important?

- Comment on I thought I was growing up in a racially tolerant Britain. I now realise I was wrong 4 months ago:
I think it’s still progress, if something forces the racists into hiding, but it should stay that way. If they come creeping out of their holes again, it sucks big time.
- Comment on The black Snape controversy 4 months ago:
btw. did the books even say anything about snapes skin color? if not, there were likely plenty of people picturing him black, since they live in countries where by far most people are.
- Comment on The black Snape controversy 4 months ago:
yeah, that’s stupid. what if harry and snape were black? would those peoples heads explode 😆
those people are maybe trying to confuse others about racism, so they can be openly racist.
it would only be racism, if the root of the suspicion lies in racism. the suspicion would be a symptom of the racism.
but the root of the suspicion was snapes harshness, mystique and weirdness.
- Comment on I went to the UK last week. Nothing about my trip was legal. 5 months ago:
yeah, arriving illegally with boats in a port is surprisingly easy almost everywhere. I suspect it’s because the rich people would get annoyed on their yachts when the procedures are too strict.
Same with private jets/planes. If you charter your own plane, you usually board/exit through a smaller, less strict terminal. AFAIK it’s unlikely someone even checks your luggage or pats you down. They’ll likely just check passports.

It can’t even work through the fabric. Fails at an early stage.
