You had to have a whole ass cabinet for these things. With a speedy rewinder device on top of it.

[sadmac356]

And you had to stop it when you were done watching and wanted to take it out. If you were unlucky whatever you were watching would just, end abruptly, or you end up watching something completely unrelated partway through what you were watching. If you're REALLY unlucky, you put the tape in and press play…and it makes noises but then eats the tape

Dumald is DEMANDING we RE-Start Nuke Weapons Tests. Though it’s NOT clear, WHY.

Nuke Testing has been banned, WORLDWIDE (For fairly OBVIOUS reasons), since 1992.

Nuke Chain Reactions (AKA: Detonations)? Despite NOT being easy to initiate, ARE an, extremely SIMPLE processes. NOT a lot we don’t, already UNDERSTAND, about HOW they work!… So… Why MORE TESTS?… Are we trying to INTIMIDATE… Someone?… With NUKES?!… Dumald Has NEVER demonstrated any more understanding of Nuke Weapons, than… “Explosions that *BOOM* really LOUD & *FLASH* really BRIGHT”) ???... Are we?… Trying to… INTIMIDATE someone, Dumald???

… OF COURSE we are!!!

(Hello, China!)… Wait… HOLD ON A SEC!…Didn’t they CONVINCE themselves, awhile back?… That China, as one of, ONLY Nations in World with sufficient population [+++Billions]?… Might, actually ,be able to SURVIVE: Full-Scale, Nuclear War?…

Perhaps we’ll find out!

Won’t THAT be 💀💀FUN!!!!💀💀💀

having the Aviation Accident Investigations Autism™️ has actually done wonders for the way I process and respond to my own fuck-ups

[json-derulo]

And I don't just mean "oh, my little work mistake is actually nothing compared to a fiery crash that kills people," either. The reason commercial flight is so many orders of magnitude safer than any other form of transportation is because after every accident and incident, an independent regulatory body investigated it with the express goal of figuring out exactly what happened, why, and how to prevent the same thing from ever happening again—not to root out which person deserved the blame or the liability.

It's a simple, shockingly effective idea. It's also worlds away from how most people approach their own mistakes and the mistakes of others.

[json-derulo]

Because it’s never just one person’s fault. And even when it is, it still isn’t. 

The sharpest, best-trained pilots make worse decisions when they're tired or sick or stressed out, so there's two of them. The most dedicated and experienced air traffic controllers garble an instruction over the radio sometimes, so pilots are trained to always repeat clearances back to catch misunderstandings quickly. The best and brightest maintenance mechanic still overlooks a screw or misconnects a wire once or twice in her career, so aircraft systems are built with two or three or four layers of redundancy, and pilots are exhaustively trained to deal with failures safely. 

Everyone eventually has a bad day. Every component breaks down. Every computer gets a bad a Windows update and spirals into a reboot doom loop. If it’s possible for one person’s mistake to domino into a mushroom cloud of a fuckup, then that task is too critical to be one person's sole responsibility. The accident sequence starts with the design of the system—so how do you improve the system to keep it from happening again?

[json-derulo]

oh yeah. The “modern commercial aviation is the safest form of transport” thing only applies to planes, btw. A helicopter is a beautiful metal horse that wants to break its legs and die so so so badly

[ ID: photo of David Attenborough sitting on an oceanside cliff, with the quote: 

If I die while I have a pet, let my animal see my dead body. Let them see my dead body please. They understand death and seeing me dead will allow them to mourn, but if I just never show up one day they’ll think I abandoned them. I know what it feels like to be abandoned and I never want anyone to feel that way, especially my dog.

Please let my cats know I'm not leaving them because I want to. Please let them understand.

When Alice died, it was supposed to be at home. The doctors were supposed to come and let her go peacefully and without fear. But everything happened so fast, and she died at the vet. No one thought about Thomas (me, included: I was gone by that point, so broken by grief that if I could have died with her, I would have, just from wanting). From his perspective, we had been whisking her off to the vet at least once a week for eight months. And this time we just...never brought her home.

They were bonded, and he was distraught. For months, he kept trying to get into the garage where we kept the cat carriers, so he could find her and make her come inside. For months. His grief was real, and so furiously urgent, and I will forever feel bad for not bringing her body home to help him understand.

Please don't do that to my babies when I go. Let them see me and sniff me and understand that Mother Is Gone.
