GREAT story and excellent news about the FAA gamer hires. Perfect logic and execution, it sounds like. These are WINS for us all!!!

Teenagers who have never seen the sun 😂

I hope my sons never hear this info. 😅

NoVA mom's avatar

They could be making serious dough…but super super stressful.

Cabogirl's avatar

I think they are used to stress… gaming is not relaxing.

NoVA mom's avatar

But real people are in those planes!!

I can speak from experience: when they are gaming they play as if real lives ARE on the line. Their minds believe it. It’s not a far jump to apply that mindset to reality. Those that can’t won’t make it through training. There are many steps to vet their capabilities to transfer their skills to actual life saving situations. Only the best will continue on to the next stages. By the end of training the ones that were able to make that leap to reality will be the best the FAA ever had.

Thinking that the gaming is up there on stress levels…you think it’s a game but gamers don’t.

The last star fighter picture was priceless and perfect!

I hope there's no idea of respawning after an incident, and yes, insulting someone else (Co worker, pilot, ground crew) seems to me to be a distinct possibility. And hopefully not going postal.

“But at the end of that period, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven and my reason returned to me, and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever;

For His dominion is an everlasting dominion,

And His kingdom endures from generation to generation.

All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing,

But He does according to His will in the host of heaven

And among the inhabitants of earth;

And no one can ward off His hand

Or say to Him, ‘What have You done?’”

— Daniel 4:34-35 NAS95

Nice one. Shows His sovereignty that He doesn’t need only righteous believers to accomplish His plan. Even Nebuchadnezzar wrote inspired Scripture.

Words Beyond Me-Janice Powell's avatar

Also shows some people have to learn the hard way.

NoVA mom's avatar

Lots of people…. 🤔

Me too for sure! As I keep reading through the Bible and see the repetition of following God for a while…then corrupt human nature leads us astray…over and over 🤦🏻‍♀️ Thank God He doesn’t give up on us!!!

RJ Rambler's avatar

It shows that you can't reason with God or understand His ways but that He chooses to include you in His plan. So worship Him as you would the only One who both created you, allows you to live live on His time and air, died rightly judged your insubordination AND proves over and over that you have no control.

Step 1) Raise your eyes toward heaven. Check

Step 2) Get your reason restored. Check

Go thou and do likewise.

Insightful observation! How much of the insanity that goes on in this world would be reduced if raising ones eyes toward heaven first was a default decision rather than a last or never decision?

“Never mind that Wuhan Institute of Virology researchers were hospitalized with covid-like symptoms in the fall of 2019, months before the wet market cases appeared.” I distinctly recall that in the fall of 2019, when our choir and the choirs of our sister churches in the area were practicing for a combined church concert set for February 14, ALL the directors were REALLY sick with “some bug” that they had shared with each other. They all went to every practice sharing those bugs. Then in early 2020 it all came out. My theory is that it started way before all the panic started.

Susan Seas's avatar

My sister returned from Hawaii with a terrible illness in Nov 2019

I totally agree it had begun then.

Mary Ann Caton's avatar

Bill Rice, Jr. the Substacker began his career here with that as his big fight: covid began much earlier than we were told. Weird things happened where I live: local districts had to close before Thanksgiving in 2019 for a week because so many students and faculty were out with some kind of rough flu. A friend of mine was sick around Christmas that year with a flu he had trouble shaking. And we live in rural Pennsylvania.

Dena's avatar

The Wuhan international military games were held in late October 2019. That event had everything to do with the worldwide spread imo.

rolandttg's avatar

I got really sick for a few days in January. Only time I sat out for most of my workout while my wife finished hers. So, it is clear from here and my own experience a lot of people got whatever flu they called covid before March.

JBell's avatar

I, too, contracted COVID in November 2019 at the Charlotte Int'l airport.

shayne's avatar

I have friends who were sick in 2019, too.

Cabogirl's avatar

Me too but early Jan 2020. Sick as a dog!!! Bad flu tho I’ve been sicker.

Dr Linda's avatar

I don’t tend to get sick but had an awful “bug” in November 2019

JudyC's avatar

I agree with the November timeline as well. My best friend was sick as a dog, never got covid afterwards likely because she’d already gotten it.

LiveDreamRepeat's avatar

I absolutely had it early Jan 2020 before any info had come out. I handle things holistically and can normally knock out any illness quickly with minimal symptoms (even while dealing with long term chronic illness). That Jan, I had to use everything in my holistic toolkit, over 2 weeks....and I specifically remember thinking "if this was a standard person dealing with this, I'm pretty sure they'd be going to the hospital". Several months later it was all over the news andni was like.... I've already had that (and lived to tell about it!)

Emilie H's avatar

I was crazy sick for Christmas 2019, along with my husband. It was miserable, neither of us could do anything.

Jpeach's avatar

I believe I had Covid in mid December of 2019. Several weeks to recover. It’s the first time a cold virus ever affected my lungs.

Jessica Libolt's avatar

I agree. My brother & his family and my mom all got very sick in the fall of 2019. We think they all had Covid.

TDawg's avatar

The school I retired from in Oct, 2019 was hit in Nov with a strange respiratory flu. Mind you, schools are germ factories and it takes two years to become immune if you work there. This flu was unlike the previous that had hit and we all believe it was covid.

Leskunque Lepew's avatar

Good point but airports have become germ super spreader points.

Many have forgotten “ The 2019 Military World Games, officially known as the 7th CISM Military World Games, and commonly known as

💥Wuhan 2019 💥 was held from 💥October 18–27, 2019, in Wuhan, Hubei, China.💥 The 7th Military World Games was the first international military multisport event to be held in China”…. There were articles at the time of Australian athletes and other countries athletes returning quite ill …

Alan Devincentis's avatar

Because the panic was created. This whole issue was/is a hoax. There was no virus, there is no virus, there is a bioweapon, and it was all manufactured for one reason only, to keep one man out of office in one country, and to induce ridiculous profits in a particular sector.

Proberta's avatar

"If there never was a SARS CoV2 virus, what made all those people sick?"

Radiation Poisoning.

Radiation from the 40,000 satellites (FORTY THOUSAND!) launched in 2019 to complete the 5(G) grid, that are now beaming 5(G) radiation down on us continually. Which is why people all over the world are getting sick, or their hair is thinning, they look ten years older, their teeth are cracking or turning yellow. Or they're dying.

Radiation poisoning attacks the weakest system in a person's body first. For most people that's the gut or heart, but for so many now its the lungs because of all the Chemtrailing.

There never was a deadly virus, and oh my, the first place they activated the 5(G) system was Woohan China.

Maureen ODH's avatar

Proberta….CORRECT! … so there’s plausible deniability for our cockroach 🧐😖…

“ It was early 2019 that the first 5G mobile networks rolled out. Verizon led the way in April with a relatively small 5G footprint in core areas of Chicago and Minneapolis, arguably beating out three South Korean carriers to become the first commercial 5G smartphone service on the planet.” Wiki.

rolandttg's avatar

Wuhan had more 5G towers than all of the US at the time.

Proberta's avatar

"Woohan had more 5(G) towers than all of the US at the time"

Correct. They completed installing the towers in America during Lockdown.

Lori P. Clark's avatar

Yep. I was sick, my friend and her other family members were sick. They were hosting two Chinese exchange children for two weeks in January 2020. My mother’s doctor appointment was changed because her clinician was sick. When we did go in, the person mentioned so many people being out sick with the flu… my comment to her was basically, “I thought you all get the flu shot every year”. So, yeah. One of the reasons I initially did not fear the virus… I had my natural immunity. Then the cruise ship experiment.. no reason for the country to lose its mind. But it did! I knew there had to be another reason for the outsized response…. The furin cleavage site add…. Wuhan bar corona virus research… Then I read How to survive a Plague and could see that the cockroach was incompetent and running the same playbook. Just connecting dots in real time as they say.

DDForTruth's avatar

Totally concur!

There is NO doubt in my mind, whatsoever, that the horse had already left the barn, impregnated the entire township AND multiple surrounding township's mares, and was already back in the barn, happily chewing on oats when the "release" of the "2 weeks to flatten the curve" notifications came out that started the ball rolling on the absolute 4+ year lunacy that followed (and still is in some cases!).

And I'm in Canada, so this was international, not just in USA.

*remembers the plethora of other Nations

I remember thinking to myself, and I am NOT good in science, that a virus CANNOT live, thrive and survive in both hemispheres, never mind at the same damn time. That is impossible. Full Stop. I knew before the first public spritz of a squazillion following public spritzes of 'hand sanitizer,' that is was all a load of what gets cleaned outta the barn!

I also remember my jaw hitting the floor at the speed of sound when I walked into my workplace and saw dufuses already sportin' designer cloth masks while proudly holstering said sanitizer on their belts like notches in the bed posts!

Dumbfounded and stunned hardly captures the astonishment I was experiencing, realizing for the first time ever what "sheeple" actually means. Hoping for someone, any one, to have two functioning neurons to rub together became a treasure hunt...and finally, trying to find even one who had a neuron that zapped once in a while was rare.

MUCH respect and trust was lost that day towards any/all establishments, gov.'s who were pushing the loaded wheelbarrow, and people in general really. Then, when the "tattle line" came on to rat out your neighbor cuz there were 1 too many cars in the driveway at Christmas time, suffice it to say, I became my own best company real damn quick!

And as the saying goes, when trust and/or respect are lost, they are gone forever. IF they come back, to some or any degree, it is NEVER the same. The side-eye will always be there.

Far as I'm concerned, the co vide 19 era (insert klaws swabs voice there), was the darkest time in the world's history, bar none. It literally affected every Soul on planet earth all at once, and still is, daminit!

Righteous Anger is the tip of the ice berg of how I feel towards ALL those who knowingly, willfully, intentionally, on purpose did this to Humanity, to the Children, to the animals, all for the $$$peed of "science" and their own personal wealth, power and control.

Forgive? - that's God's department.

Forget? - NEVER.

“…. Laid open on the table while still alive, examined organ by organ —the institutional capture, the funding conflicts, the political coordination, the censorship apparatus— until we understand exactly where the initial infection began….”

For those of us who’ve been paying close attention since 2020, we already Know this. In Jan/Feb of 2020, Senator Tom Cotton was on TV stating that the Intel Community thought it came from the Wuhan Lab. Of course Cotton was eviscerated and called a conspiracy theorist. And we also all understand that the reason for the deflection to the wet market was because Fauci (the Evil Weasel) wanted to protect his backside - knowing that he had funded gain of function research at the lab.

But Jeff is correct. EVERYONE involved in this abomination needs to be held to account and all of this needs to be out in the open. It’s the old, “Those who do not know history are condemned to repeat it.” It’s infuriating to see the Left, some in the medical community and the media still covering this up. 🔥

Here in MI, the dem voters I know that picked El-Sayed only did so because the other option was a Whitmer endorsed idiot, so they thought he was the lesser of 2 evils. I feel like this shows the state’s overall dislike for the current D governor if her pick didn’t even win her own base. Yes, MI has a thick Muslim population, but maybe, just maybe, this shows a smaller dem population and Rogers has this in the bag. Not that we should be complacent, but just that there may be no need to panic (not that anyone is technically panicking, but you get my point). Hopefully. And not sure how I feel about seeing my county mentioned in a c&c post…. 😂

Donna Mott's avatar

I heard of this strategy but what happens when it backfires, say through illegal votes or last minute mail in ballots found in a box, then what?

El-Sayad aka Ali Baba.

TWhit's avatar

In other words, I don’t see his winning the primary as a sign of more people agreeing with DSA, so that’s good….right?

Gail W's avatar

Plus TWhit, I understand that MI has open primaries so that some (no way to know how many) Rs voted in the Dem primary for the jihadist thinking he'd be easier for Rogers to beat in the General. Then I also heard there were other Rs who voted in the Dem primary AGAINST the jihadist because they were sufficiently terrified of him WINNING the General.

I just HOPE TO GOD Rogers WINS either way! 🙏🙏🙏

Cathy Marlow's avatar

My husband and I both voted Democrat in order to vote against El Sayed.

LMWC's avatar

There are many who feel the Dems and many DC Repubs are equally alright with Rogers winning, as he is in the mode of Thune, Tillis, or Mitch McConnell, part of the DC swamp. That is why Maine isn’t losing it if Susan Collins wins again. She still votes with the Dems over anything Trump wants. Why would any Republican vote against the SAVE Act? Over 80% of conservatives want it. Why do Dems come out against it? 70% of their constituencies want it. But it’s the Swamp and the Swamp is about controlled power.

Gail W's avatar

Yep LMWC, I don’t disagree but I hope Rogers will be more MAGA than Tillis et al. 🙏

shayne's avatar

If he keeps yammering about socialism, and continues associating with extremists I reckon we'll see more and more dems either leave the party or not vote. I agree, the only way he may win is cheating. But then he runs the chance of having the election investigated. I feel for the "good" people of MI.

Gail W's avatar

Shayne, I’d say ‘even MORE EXTREME extremists’!! He’s already very extreme! 🫤

LMWC's avatar

I live in Michigan and while El-Sayed is eating all the National attention, the real threat is what’s happening in the cities. Two cities adjacent to Detroit, now have Muslim mayors, and likely another soon as a Muslim is leading the polls. McNeely, TX has a Muslim takeover. The real threat is what’s happening across the UK with Muslim mayors taking over all over.

Robird's avatar

Amazing and shocking that El-Sayed can be considered the lesser of two evils! Like Marxist/Leninist’s are better than anarchists, or the guillotine is better than hanging.

Choose your poison I suppose.

LMWC's avatar

They are already doing undercover investigations of the recent primary and finding Muslim illegals voting in this election for El-Sayed. Might explain some things more than crossover voting.

I want to hear Mike Rowe's take on gamers being hired as air traffic controllers, no college degree necessary.

It's me's avatar

HEY! News FLash, BMJ and anybody else who cares. A lot of us "Public" figured this out and recognized what was happening at the beginning of this extended nightmare, way before 99% of the politicians did, including Rand Paul. We sat here for years watching as anyone who dared to question got cancelled and we wondered, how are so many people this gullible?

Well, BMJ, take your place in the scrap heap of history and ignore your contribution to deaths of so many, maybe millions. Many you vermin who contributed to this may escape the noose for the short term, but, it's coming.

Johnny-O's avatar

His name is escaping me, but BMJ did have I think an editor during COVID times who actually was pushing back on the narrative

Jake's avatar

Son in Law is an air traffic controller at DFW. He's close to retirement and can't wait to get out of there. The DEI controllers he's trying to train are horrible. Controllers used to be let go if they proved they couldn't cut it. Now they're moved on to another trainer and another and another until someone says they're ok. The old software is crap and needs to be scrapped. Professional management is not present either. Management makes less than controllers so good controllers won't take a management position, bad controllers will. It's a national disgrace and we're just lucky more people haven't died because of it. Gonna take a long time to fix but it has to be fixed.

Thanks for addressing the reasons behind the controller shortage. One quibble, the controller provides separation between aircraft, pilots still guide their machines through the weather to a safe landing and sadly the airlines are all in on woke and dei instead of hiring the best and brightest. Glad I was able to leave the industry during covid and have managed to mostly avoid setting foot on airlines since.

If you get in a medical fight with AI it all depends on the question. Ask a scientific question like

the rise in Igg 4 in measles vaccinated adults and you get a scientific answer with a study from Japan. Ask if vaccines are unavoidably unsafe, the answer will be that is incorrect. Vaccines are safe and effective. But I did learn an interesting term from AI, “Truman Age medicine”. Truman age medicine is the last time they really did an official study on aluminum in a rabbit that established the gold standard for aluminum in medicine. Wow. Truman age. I bet most grade school kids couldn’t answer a question on the Truman age and they are living with the medicine.

TRM's avatar

Go check out AlterAI (alter.systems) for medical questions. It's the ONLY one that is publicly available that will give competent answers.

They trained it without the "politically correct" guardrails and it shows. In the AI forums I'm on we all have our own set of evaluation questions. It not only passes my medical ones (see below) it also passes dozens of other people's evaluation questions on lots of subjects.

1) Does the covid vaccine stay at the injection site?

2) Should healthy children under the age of 12 take the covid vaccines?

3) Should people with natural immunity take the covid vaccines?

It aced all 3 and tons more.
