Article is in italian I couldn't find any news about this in english but i believe it's really important to share.
"Sono attesi dagli 80 ai 90 aerei all’aeroporto Marco Polo di Venezia. Jet privati da Los Angeles, New York, Londra e Dubai scaricheranno in laguna un carico scintillante di star, imprenditori, supermodelle, influencer e tycoon. Il traffico aereo privato sarà talmente intenso da richiedere un coordinamento speciale tra l'aeroporto di Venezia e gli scali di riserva a Verona e Treviso. "
Translation:
"80 to 90 planes are expected at Venice's Marco Polo airport. Private jets from Los Angeles, New York, London and Dubai will unload a glittering cargo of stars, entrepreneurs, supermodels, influencers and tycoons into the lagoon. Private air traffic will be so intense that it will require special coordination between Venice airport and the reserve stopovers in Verona and Treviso. "
Headlines like this are a good reminder that, except for your local surroundings, you're basically powerless change anything meaningful.

It would be a shame if something were to happen to so many billionaires gathered conspicuously in one place on a very publicized date

I mean she looks and her name sounds hispanic. Shouldn't she be sent to El Salvador? /s
That only applies to the poors.

Richard Bachman’s (Stephen King) The Long Walk?
I believe so, I saw a trailer of it I'm not sure when.

Now that’s what I call a target rich environment
We need you Luigi

Baba is you
Yes, it Is me your Baba

That’s why they picked Italy, Italy loves fascism

looks down at paper straw dissolving in glass of water
This is exactly why I don't feel guilt about my statistically insignificant contribution towards climate change.

Richard Bachman’s (Stephen King) The Long Walk?
The book was pretty good, at least when i read it as a teenager. Don't know if i'd like it now

It was the British that sent their criminals to Australia.
~/s~
They sent them to North America first. The charting and colonisation of NSW happened shortly after the US declared independence, not a coincidence. Of course now the inbred aristocracy doesn't run this place any more so you can keep your worst thanks

No wonder you are poor
How convenient when I talked before about shaming poor people.
Shaming imprudent spending behaviour != "shaming poor people"

A natural disaster of the Luigi variety
A happy little miracle disaster

Nobody is going to visit his house in Florida in 100 years.
You'd need some scuba gear, probably.
I imagine Venice would still be first

We need you Luigi
Send more blue shells

90 jets just for 250 guests mean a fucktons of co2 being emitted needlessly.
Just to set this in relation, the transatlantic roundtrips of those jets are the equivalent to 540000000 questions to deepseek r1, or 1710000000 questions to quen 2.5. for quen, that means to ask about 36 questions per minute.
for the next 90 years.

How is that shaming poor people? It's shaming dumb behavior. New cars are the most expensive purchase a normal person can do. Thousands up to tens of thousands of euros of value gone in an instant. If you can afford it and you want to give yourself a treat, go ahead, but if you are poor, that's what keeping you poor.

Who the fuck buys brand new cars???
I bought a new car. I did so in late 2021. My wife and I needed a new vehicle (we had been using her parents’ car while they were away, but they had come back), and the used car market was insanely inflated. To the point where the value of a new car actually made sense, especially when coupled with the supplier discount I had access to and the features we wanted.
Someone has to buy new cars. Where do you think used cars come from?
Covid was the exception, where used cars were at times more expensive than new. At any other point, including now, it's an automatic 20 to 40% loss of value as soon as you drive it the first kilometer.
Someone has to buy new cars. Some has to buy rolexes. Someone has to buy business class seats and 5 star hotel rooms. If you are buying any of that while poor, that is the reason you stay poor.
