[01:20:57] * Bytram notes that rDT thinks he is reading/replying to tweets on SN: https://soylentnews.org
[01:21:04] <TheMightyBuzzard> i never liked the book. it was all "hey, like me because i'm black even though i'm lame as fuck"
[01:21:26] <SoyGuest44745> Yeah, it's all about pandering.
[01:22:11] <SoyGuest44745> But doing a short term in a diverse environment I saw that a lot of blacks had Black Panther posters in their cubicles.
[01:22:38] <SoyGuest44745> Pretty sad.
[01:24:23] <TheMightyBuzzard> yeah, cap's hands down the best of the avengers-related franchises.
[01:24:54] <SoyGuest44745> And he was created by Jews to get America to join the war.
[01:25:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> even though they did a cocktastic job of articulating the cap(libertarian) position in Civil War.

[04:04:21] * TheMightyBuzzard pictures a balding hawk with a beer gut every time falcon heavy is mentioned
[04:09:11] * Bytram tries to imagine a beer-bellied raptor... and thinks of TMB... twins?
[04:09:51] <TheMightyBuzzard> that's more or less accurate.
[04:10:21] * Bytram chuckles and then guffaws
[04:10:46] <Bytram> IIRC, a buzzard tends to have the larger wingspan, though.

[04:12:28] * Bytram has a few more years than that and has had the same weight (underweight, at that) for at least the past 3 decades

[04:13:56] * Bytram but, the only spare space they had was a 3rd floor conference room at the corner of the building
[04:14:25] * Bytram we were winding things up for the day when, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something approach from the left hand side
[04:14:36] * Bytram was a golden eagle
[04:15:15] * Bytram and I was looking down on it (maybe 10 feet above it) as it flew by maybe 15 feet away
[04:15:20] * Bytram it was HUGE!

[04:15:25] <MrPlow> https://en.wikipedia.org - "The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) is one of the best-known birds of prey in the Northern Hemisphere. It is the most widely distributed species of eagle. Like all eagles, it belongs to the family Accipitridae. These birds are dark brown, with lighter golden-brown plumage on their napes. Immature eagles of this species ..."
[04:15:41] <upstart> ^ 03Golden eagle - Wikipedia
[04:16:04] <Bytram> ahhh, here it is:
[04:16:07] <Bytram> "he golden eagle is a very large raptor, 66 to 102 centimetres (26 to 40 in) in length. Its wings are broad and the wingspan is 1.8 to 2.34 metres (5 ft 11 in to 7 ft 8 in)."
[04:16:16] <TheMightyBuzzard> yup. you fish enough in TN and you'll see plenty of bald eagles. can see hundreds if you go up to reelfoot lake in the winter.
[04:17:04] * Bytram hopes that if you go up there, then, that none of them are, umm, hungry
[04:17:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> troof. they couldn't carry me off by any means but they got bigass knives on their feet and wings wider than i am tall.
[04:18:38] <Bytram> 'zactly!
[04:18:40] <Bytram> heh
[04:18:45] <Bytram> "Captive birds have been measured with a wingspan of 2.81 m (9 ft 3 in) and a mass of 12.1 kg (27 lb), though this mass was for an eagle bred for falconry, which tend to be unnaturally heavy."
[04:20:05] <TheMightyBuzzard> aight, smoke n bed time. see yas tomorrow.
[04:20:36] <Bytram> "When diving after prey, a golden eagle can reach 240 to 320 kilometres per hour (150 to 200 mph). "
[04:20:53] <Bytram> If you need to duck, you better do it FAST!
[04:20:57] <Bytram> nod nod
[04:21:09] <Bytram> have a great night, my fine, feathered friend!
