If I had a nickel for every time the Dali ran into something, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Dali ship that collided with Baltimore bridge previously hit a port's wall
The container vessel had a collision incident in Belgium's port of Antwerp in 2016.

And that's just the major ones. Ship could be cursed. Although I think after this one the ship will be retired.If I had a nickel for every time the Dali ran into something, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

I'm basically convinced the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge here in the Bay Area will eventually suffer the same fate...if an earthquake doesn't get it first. That thing looks so spindly. The Pylons on the Key bridge don't look like they had a whole lot of protection for something like this

God, this is going to make conservative conspiracy nutjobs go absolutely insane:
www.cbsnews.com
Clearly, illegal immigrants collapsed the bridge. I can already hear Margey Taylor Green foaming at the mouth to start going off about this (or she has rabies, I don't know).
Who are the victims in Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse? What we know about those missing and presumed dead
The search for six construction workers turned to a recovery effort Tuesday night, following a collapse at Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge.

And I'm pretty sure they were legal immigrants too. From what I'm reading, they were refugees who had been in the country for several years. Brawner, the construction group they worked for, is also very involved in government projects for the state of Maryland, and I have to imagine they wouldn't have been contracted had they been employing undocumented workers.
Still, conservatives are going to go bat 🤬 insane over it.

This was a huge bridge (the pictures don't make you realize the scale) .Was shocked to hear the news in the early morning hours.
I always used to get nervous when I used to drive over it, the fact the center span was only supported by two piers used to make me nervous. Mind you , I drive frequently over the Bay Bridge and Delaware Memorial bridge.

The immigrants who have already been demonised were... working? Paying taxes? Contributing to society? I don't see what the issue is other than outright, blatant xenophobia.
People go missing (I don't know their status or condition) in a horrible tragedy and others are making a big deal out of where they're from? What a ****ing disgusting mindset to have. Ghouls.

All I've learned in the past 24 hours is that DEI is the new substitute for the N-Word/other racist terms to these useless sacks of air in society.
The most ironic part is that claiming Baltimore's Mayor being black is DEI. Baltimore is 62% black, double that of the white population. It would arguably be "DEI" if the Mayor was white.
