news "Explosive diarrhea" inside plane makes pilot to turn back & land, "sprayed all over"
Psylocke posted a topic in The Lounge
A Delta passenger sprayed diarrhea everywhere aboard a midair flight, forcing the plane to turn around and go back to the airport to deal. The holy s**t moment occurred Friday as the Delta flight was headed to Barcelona, Spain after taking off from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Georgia. While the jet was over Virginia, the passenger's gastrointestinal issues exploded out in the open ... giving everyone on board a front-row seat to the disgusting aftermath. The flight captain radioed Air Traffic Control to report the incident and he seemed pretty calm under the circumstances. You can hear him on the recording say, "It's just a biohazard issue, we had a passenger who had diarrhea all the way through the airplane so they want us to come back to Atlanta." People on the flight were horrified and complained about it on social media. One person wrote, "My partner was on that flight! It was pretty bad. It was dribbled down the aisle, smelled horrible." Another said, "The vanilla scented disinfectant used on it only made it smell like vanilla s***." A third called it "a mess," but praised the pilot for making the right decision to turn back around and land. Delta issued a statement, "Our teams worked as quickly and safely as possible to thoroughly clean the airplane and get our customers to their final destination." No word yet on the condition of the passenger. Source and audio of the pilot here! -

This year I been to 2 concerts. Saw Charlie Puth at a 6k amphitheater in May. The traffic was limited the seating was spacious and u could actually hear him speak. It only took 5 mins to get in and out. Tonight I saw the Jonas Brothers at a 40k stadium. It took forever to get there. Lines for drinks were long there was so many people. Tbh the crowd was so loud O could not even hear them speak. And it took 2 hrs to leave the venue. In my opinion I had so much of a more fun time seeing Charlie even tho he's not a better performer but I just think small venues are WAYYY better. Thoughts?

news Brazil's High Court rules that homophobic hate speech is now punishable by prison
Scars posted a topic in Civics
Judges had previously ruled in 2019 that homophobic hate speech is a crime equivalent to racism, but earlier decisions pertained to the LGBTQ+ community as a whole rather than attacks on specific individuals. https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/08/24/brazil-high-court-supreme-court-homophobia/ -

X This video (with subtitles) explains the entire situation : The recent surge in anti-LGBTQ rhetoric there is so disgusting and transparent. It is so clearly being pushed by political leaders/stakeholders to divert the public's attention from the ongoing economic crisis and they keep using the LGBTQ+ community as their new scapegoat for their sick propaganda
