Another reason to avoid gender reveal parties, I guess
As if wild fires weren’t enough.
Gender reveal parties were conceived as a fun way of telling family and friends whether they were about to welcome a girl or a boy into the world.
Fake news
Authorities did not release the pilot’s name, and the cause of the crash is not clear.
I'm no expert, but...
So...they didn't even reveal the pilots gender? Maybe a gender reveal funeral?
Some of these planes are built so the wings don't fall off

My first RC Airplane I ever built folded like that.
I instantly knew the spot I used Balsa Wood when I should have used Ply Wood.
Took an hour to dig that engine out of the dirt.
Looked like the confetti air cannon blew the wing off, rickety plane
That camera guy is a pro, focusing back on the party instead of the falling aircraft, he knows who’s paying him.
In portrait mode, no less.
The gender ist DEATH
That plane would have failed sooner or later anyhow. What the hell we the mechanics doing?
Looks like a stress failure that was deemed "nah, it'll hold" or missed entirely. Thankfully it didn't fall on people or crash into a building.
Gender reveal parties are stupid, I would not go to one and I would never have one.
Out with the old.
In with the new.
Well at least no wildfires...
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
