If I were a billionaire I’m sure I would waste money on some stupid stuff. But going down to the bottom of the ocean wouldn’t be one of those things, I guarantee.

I just wanna know where they poop while they wait to die. God, it's like straight from a horror movie. Or a psychological thriller. I saw a video that explained the vessel was about the size of a mini van and there is a large tube for urine. No word on the poop situation.

The dismissal of safety requirements feels peak oligarchy uber rich, the rules don't apply for them it just costs more, and now they're at the biggest fuck around and find out. As long as they still have air I think they need to keep looking. Sadly if not found and the sub is still intact they won't drown, but suffocate. One thing I read said they didn't have safety regulations they answered to bc it was all in international waters.

The doors bolted on the outside remind me of the Apollo 1 fire where they couldn't open the capsule because the door opened in and the pressure from tbe fire was too high. They redesigned after that
I was obsessed with Titanic as a kid and I can't look away from this. Paying oodles of money to go to a deep sea mass grave gives me major ick though, plus all the risks of diving that deep
I hope they find them but it doesn't seem likely. It sounds like they don't even see the Titanic every time because of navigational issues 🤦♀️ Hopefully some safety changes will happen

And even if they come to the surface they have NO WAY of opening the vessel. It is bolted from the outside. 😵💫 I feel like they wouldn't survive opening it at those depths. The water pressure alone would probably kill them? Idk. I don't under-sea. Minerva will know

I was reading about this yesterday and I had to stop because it started freaking me out. Last I read, there is about 48 hrs of oxygen left. Hard pass to pay $250K to die this way. The live update from 6 minutes ago said 46 hours left. Just absolutely terrifying. I'm so sucked into this even though it gives me anxiety. But this assumes that they still have a fully operating electrical system, right? Otherwise the air filtration is not working.

Even while diving to like 60’ you have to slowly ascend and do safety stops mid way. I think the scenario that KLW might have been talking about was if the vessel was able to surface, but didn’t regain communication or spotted by the coast guard, that they inside still couldn’t open the vessel even at the surface.

If they don't find it by the time oxygen is determined to run out, I hate to say it, but I hope they call off efforts of recovery. At that point, three days of desperate searching by multiple countries using top of the line rescue technology, I don't think they're going to find it. They lost contact less than 2 hours into the trip. They had the best chances to find it by now.

I can not get over Trump casually dropping into the conversation that he had classified documents in boxes WITH HIS PANTS

Everything about the lost sub makes me angry and sad. And the idea of slowly suffocating to death is truly horrifying.

FYI, VA's own Amanda Chase, the self described "Trump in heels", lost her primary for state senator. We went to vote, even though there was no Democratic primary, solely to vote against her, just tonget there and find out that our part of the county is no longer in her district after redistricting. Oh well, we got to vote for Commonwealth Attorney. After this year, VA will finally be rid of her!
The pedophile Joe Morrissey also lost his bid for state senator, by a landslide. Thank fucking God! Overall, primary day has been successful in central VA. How'd it go for our other VA ladies?

He's such a horrible horrible man.

I used to live really close to Joe Morrissey and his ex-wife. Their kids were super cute and i just always felt bad because he is such a scumbag and she was so young.

I didn’t know she was an executive producer! I have plans to watch it soon, being an endo sufferer myself. I’ve heard it’s very well done.
