Which means spending even more money to remove those upgrades later

Not only was it crass and tasteless, it was also wrong. Trump bragged about how his building used to be the second tallest but was "now the tallest". It wasn't even close. He can't even be an inconsiderate moron right.

I am in hysterics that Elon spent fuck knows how much money on making engineers build him his very own imaginary friend to fill the void left by his lack of real friends and it consistently does stuff like this

"go to the doctor lots of separate times for medicine that costs pennies" says president of country where health providers charge exorbitant amounts of money for each visit to the doctor. Gee, I wonder why he's saying this

Oh but he is right about one thing, he did reverse the economic calamity he inherited. The thing is, the economic calamity he inherited was rapidly improving.

That's a stripper clip, the bullets are removed from them as they're placed into the gun. So no attempt was made to use these particular bullets. Many bullets come from the factory pre-packaged onto stripper clips so you can just pull them out the crate and slot them straight in. Even the 5.56mm comes on clips. This is just some ammo someone pulled out a stash and dropped on the floor.

You know how, quite famously, Honey badgers don't give a fuck? Honey badgers are just big weasels. The small weasels also do not give a fuck.

Don't ask them to be consistent because the point isn't to explain why they hate you. They've already decided they hate you. Whatever their "reason" is just an excuse added on after the fact.

Did Patel do this after it was revealed that the shooter was, as it were, one of theirs? I'm very willing to believe incompetence but I'm also willing to believe malfeasance.

People like Trump go to Nastrond

Aircraft are registered, with owners, in publicly accessible databases. I figured out who owns this aircraft real fucking quick, I'm sure Trumps FBI won't be as fast as me but will eventually get there. This is about the worst way to escape if you want to remain hidden. Turning your transponder off after taking off doesn't make you disappear from the database. Planes take off from airports all the time, it's kinda their thing. This was coincidence.

Bro is smirking like he's the main character on a Dreamworks poster. An incompetent FBI agent and a child put in charge of counter-terrorism team up to take down a mystery assassin in an unfortunately-too-real comedy coming to a 24 hour news cycle near you.

The US has several ongoing operations based in Qatar including their own anti-ISIS patrols over Iraq (Operation Inherent Resolve) and intimidation missions over Iran (Operation Placate Orange Baby). They do have booms so could conceivably refuel the Israeli aircraft though carrying out tankering so close to the target is a tactic that experts would call "bloody stupid". I believe these aircraft were uninvolved.

And it probably will stick. Despite it being literally impossible, just look at social media to see how many people decry the RAF for refueling Israeli aircraft.

Not only does the second post assert a fact, but it is entirely wrong and can be easily checked by looking at the sort of refueling gear used by UK and Israeli aircraft. Hint: They're not compatible with each other.

This is what the Boom-Receptacle refueling system looks like. It uses a large rigid tube which "flies" behind the tanker and is plugged into a receptacle on the back of the receiving aircraft. This is the system that Israel uses.

This is what the Probe-and-Drogue system looks like. It uses a flexible hose trailing behind the tanker that the fighter can plug into. This picture, specifically, shows an RAF tanker. These tankers are fitted with either 2 or 3 hoses depending on version, they do not carry a Boom.

UK tankers use the Probe-and-Drogue refueling system. Israeli aircraft use the Boom-Receptacle refueling system. These systems are not compatible with each other. The RAF literally cannot provide fuel to Israel. The tankers in Qatar have been there since 2015 under Operation Shader, providing fuel to Typhoons performing anti-ISIS patrols over Iraq.

On the contrary, I think it would take a very long time. There would be so much incriminating stuff just lying around that you'd have to sort through it to find the one you want.

Additionally, if 99% of everything is definitely bullshit, it makes it hella easier to dismiss that last 1% as bullshit too

And fusion didn't get funding until recently because the major nuclear powers favored "dual use" designs. Fusion can't be used to pull a funny on another country, you see.
