Oof, The more I read about the near-miss in Austin, the more terrifying it gets:

"This Austin situation is awful. As bad as it gets without body bags….

This was a total system failure. These airplanes were not separated by any good fortune of serendipitous timing. The only thing preventing another Tenerife was the FedEx crew's situational awareness and the breath of god." /via @JFallows

‘As bad as it gets without body bags.’

Why the Austin airport situation was so dangerous.

@bro very sad news. The food, as you said was not great. But it was a fantastic place to go to grab drinks before heading out for the night.

@motoridersd Same here in Chicago. ComEd gives us the "energy" fee and the "Delivery" fee. The delivery fee doubled from last year even though the infrastructure is the same.

@[email protected] happy new year! Yeah we aren't going to have two electric company logins or water bill logins. lol. They wouldn't even let us. So shared logins are a must for some thing.

@[email protected] I tried but haven't found a way to make it easy. Partially because Todd and I share a lot of logins as family logins, so not sure how iCloud does that.

I have 17k miles on AA and tried to redeem them for SOMEthing. Was targeting a hotel night but not enough. I forgot how useless they are since AA has no transfer partners and no "shopping" options.

@motoridersd Is this because of the crazy weather?

Brutal. Kevin McCarthy just LOST the SECOND VOTE for Speaker of the House.

He once again does not have the votes.
