I work as a researcher in the university lab OceanGate used to test their vessels. My colleague told me that they would have tests run 7 times resulting in 6 failures and 1 success. OceanGate engineers (maybe their leadership?) would chalk that up as a success and keep going. My colleague says no one in the building would ever get into anything these "morons" built.

I assume there's a fair bit of hyperbole in this, but I think it generally is matching what we're seeing. Oh, also the general consensus here is that their hull caved in and they've been dead for a while.

I studied and lived with these species in Punta Tombo Argentina. Their food source is known to be moving further north. But we also saw these catastrophic events from time to time where the juvies had a super high mortality rate in their first year away

There it is, poor fuckers. No idea what the banging was, but I imagine they've been dead for a while

I would never give this up. That person must not be in the best financial situation

Can I get an explanation on the cop?

Wow. I don’t know what to say.

That’s rough buddy

Fuck yeah, glad I can shitpost somewhere.

Fuck, recently became a Sixers fan and I'm regretting the decision.

Ah nuts. I was hoping Burrow would get it done first

I reeaaaaaaalllly want to see if the Jets season is fated to be a shitshow

That’s why we (UAW 4121) were fighting for a childcare fund for Research Scientists/Engineers. But UW didn’t want to set the precedent of Staff getting childcare. Because what’s next… the maintenance staff getting it as well?? Oh the fucking horror

Also, residents, postdocs, and grad students get the fund because they are classified as “trainees”. But if a postdoc eventually transitions into a research scientist role (instead of something like a tenure track position) they lose that fund?? It’s all fucking mental

Hey @Nerdlinger, I'm trying to make a community for the Bengals. Do you mind if I use your "Rules" from your sidebar?

Wow, figured he’d stay with the dynasty. Is this because the team is betting on Poole?

I'm really enjoying the new Willy. Less scary (Anthony not going too too hard on the acting) but just as manipulative and evil.

I think Terry Jr.'s death has been the saddest death on the show (both seasons) and I'm not sure I can pinpoint why. I think it's partly seeing someone go through changes of being a misunderstood teen to being misunderstood by his own teen. It's a little bit of karma, irony, and sadness all mixed together. Especially since they didn't get that "Disney"-rules closure at the end.

Great stuff

I haven't yet but would love to go. Tons of my friends/colleagues keep recommending during the migration season!

They were responsive to my emails and said there would be english speakers there! I don't think that should stop you from going!!

Did you go to Dauphin Island?

Appreciate it! You as well

Do you speak Spanish? I almost went to the Chiapas Birding Festival this year. It looks like an amazing time. https://www.instagram.com/...

Where are you located? There are usually many local festivals that we can highlight

What would the Heat's salary situation look like with Beal? I'm trying to learn more about the NBA salary cap (I've mostly been NFL focused)
