This is haunting.

There's no gore or anything, it's just twisted metal and cables. Still, seeing it and thinking "humans were alive in there mere days ago" made my gut drop. It's not like looking at wreckage of an old ship or plane or something, it's different. Because it's so small, it feels more intimate. Like looking at a coffin vs looking at a graveyard

The death of one man is a tragedy, the death of millions is a statistic

The death of a billionaire however, is hilarious 🤣

How is the death of anyone hilarious? Does it matter how much you have in your pocket book which will determine the level of hilarity to you? That's cold. I surely hope you have more empathy in person.
