I hate to take Ryanair’s side for anything, but the real question is: is there a force majeure clause somewhere in the rules for refunds that includes the traveler snuffing it before their flight? Because after all, why would it be natural that this should trigger a refund, as if it was obvious? If the guy was stil alive but was a no-show at the airport, he wouldn’t get his money back. This really isn’t that much different.

Of course, it would be classy of Ryanair to refund the lady: it’s not like it happens so often that they’re gonna break the bank if they make an exception. But classy and Ryanair don’t go together.

I don’t think anybody who applied for a job as an ICE officer has a conscience.

You know who else was demoralized? The SS Einsatzgruppen who were ordered to carry out mass killings manually by firing at people in front of the pits they were to be buried in. Even for those psychopathic bastards, the horror had such an effect on their mental health that it was a major drive to implement the death camps with gas chambers and crematoriums to replace manual mass killings at the Wannsee conference.

The Trump regime, following the Hitler playbook almost to a tee, has now reached the point where its own SS - ICE - is also having mental issues with what they’re ordered to do. I guess automation of inhumane treatments in some form or other is next too…

What a terrible country.
All three of them.

Remember: AI chatbots are designed to maximize engagement, not speak the truth. Telling a methhead to do more meth is called customer capture.

Silly bunny… The social media platform of choice for Nazis is Twitter.

Looks like Rupert Murdoch had a flare-up last night and called the WSJ’s editorial board this morning…

It takes one to know one.

Well they’re right: it really feels like 1934 Germany right now.

I reckon the White House should contract The Boring Company to drill a tunnel between the Oval Office and the toilet in Mar-a-Lago.

And possibly install a Neuralink chip in cheeto’s brain too.

I mean since the White House is now a Musk showroom, why not go all the way…

I have no idea who Andrew Tate is. So I looked him up on Wikipedia, and he seems like the kind of awful person who would be a darling of the MAGAsphere.

Could someone explain to me why DeSantis doesn’t want him then?
