Paraglider pilot here. A paraglider would be literally the worst way to invade/attack/terrorist-whatever any target. You need the right wind conditions to launch (or you have to have someone tow you up, but that only gets you so high); if there are no thermals, you can’t travel any kind of distance (unless your target is on a coastal ridge with onshore wind); you pretty much have to “attack” during the day (for above reasons); you move incredibly slowly (trim speed for your average wing is around 25-3mph); and you need both hands to operate the controls (I guess you could have a tandem passenger to work the weapons or whatever, but then you’re 2 people for every one weapon you have). Paramotors (paraglider plus big ass fan) makes all of this even less ideal, since you’re still very slow moving, and you’re loud.
In conclusion, this lady is a nutcase and badly needs a hobby.

The book “Assembling California” by McPhee gives a lot of excellent description about context when it comes to geology. Gets a bit academic at times, but interesting background on California’s crazy geology.

I never bought one in the first place (my dad passed and I inherited his, even with free charging), and I’m working on selling it. Financially it would be way easier to keep it but I’m straight up embarrassed to be driving it.

Growing up in the eighties in the Los Angeles area, we frequently had “smog alert” days at school where we were not allowed to run around at recess. That was not very long ago, and the impact emissions regulations have had just in that short time can’t be understated. Baffling that we elected in a party that wants to roll all of that back.

I think the greatest ending to this story would be if an employee at that landfill found it (either by digging for it on their lunch breaks or just random chance) and was able to use it.

Damn, beat me to it. I would bet 10,500 buttcoins that at least 75% of people who see that headline immediately thought the same thing too.
