It's extraordinary bad luck. It was the first mission in forever to not visit the space station and it was the last without contingencies. Nobody ever got a good look at the damage. But mission command knew it was bad but unactionable. They threw up their arms and decided to try reentry anyway. There was nothing they could do.

The shuttle program is littered with near-disasters. 1, 51F, 93, etc. 27 nearly replicated the loss of Columbia. And that one was saved by luck and tile location.
sad, supposedly they never told the astronauts. Not sure it that part is fact though. Read very little on the other space shuttle ones you talked about. Another tile one happened before columbia? rip

I think a not-insignificant part of his appeal has been his ability to get away with things. For people who got mad about OJ and Bill Clinton in the 90s, Trump represented someone who'd use impunity "on their side."

He's not gonna lose Nick Fuentes over this but your median American voter is not particularly fond of convicts.

Yeah, I think Magic Mountain saves money by being more bare bones with the theming and not really any live shows. During the summer their tickets are between $57 to $67 each, so long as you buy like a week in advance. By comparison Disneyland, the most expensive park, ranges from $154 to $194 each.
What is the cheapest you can get magic m tickets you've seen for? Possibly it's better than cedar point? Idk

As a bonus, its always funny seeing people stuck in the same spot in line throwing me the dirtiest looks they can muster as I pass right by them several times, with their dirty looks increasing in severity each time XD

Yeah for the big coaster parks, going during the week in the off season is the best. Doesn't work as well for the family friendly parks. For years, my uncle took my cousin and I to Magic Mountain on Black Friday. It was always a ghost town, where most rides had no lines at all, just walk on. Tried that with universal studios one year and it was absolutely packed with people. Everything has 1+ hour wait times. It was a night and day difference lol.

Also, I agree with you about magic mountain vs Knott's. And I love the Roller Coaster Tycoon reference. I was absolutely the player that just built a ton of coasters with no regards for theming lol

Yeah, Magic Mountain is the cheaper of the two. But to be fair Magic Mountain is actually the cheapest theme park in Southern California.

While I did appreciate that it was free, it wasn't exactly the best system. The fast passes for the most popular rides ran out really quickly. I went back in 2014 and in the California Adventure Park, the passes for the Cars ride sold out less than an hour after the park opened (the normal line regularly reached 2+ hours).

And you couldn't reserve more than 1 fast pass at a time in the same park (you could do 1 per park with park hopper). So you basically had to run over first thing in the morning, get the passes and then go wait in other lines until it was time to go back. IIRC we grabbed our fast passes for Cars at around 8:30am and the timeslots were already at like 3pm.
wow did not know, surprising, cheapest theme park in south calif, wow

Yep, G1 fan here.

I re-watched all the episodes, and the ones that stood out, were the Rebirth (where they introduced the Headmasters and Targetmasters while also bringing Optimus back.

The other episode that stood out was where the Decepticons found an alloy that made them indestructible. The Autobots coated themselves in the same alloy, and they had an all-out war. The Decepticons realized they couldn't win, so they retreated. They ravaged the entire landscape. One of the Autobots looks at the devastation, and sighs "we won." Fairly mature for a kids show.

The G.I. Joe cross-over was pretty entertaining too... like we couldn't recognize the mysterious voice of Cobra Commander.
yeah iirc spielberg said that as well, most mature children's cartoon ever , very ahead of it's time. You ever watch them on youtube? iirc every single gen 1 episode is on there if i'm not mistaken. Though i thought about buying them all on dvd......

Screamin' Eagle was my favorite roller coaster as a kid because it was big enough to feel adult but didn't actually have loops that scared me and it drove my dad crazy because he was not a fan of how rough it was. That thing is an ancient wooden roller coaster and it beats the shit out of you. The Timberwolf at Worlds of Fun is similar. Just a real violent experience.
