Feel you might be disappointed if the airports here are anything to go by these days. Unless you really sense the coming apocalypse in everything being near-empty and eerily quiet? But do share if everything's ablaze (and pick a nice bm record to accompany the scene)! Bon chance, man.

Thanks! I'll find out in a few minutes… But yeah, it's way likelier to be a whimper rather than a bang, as ever. With a bit of luck our plane will empty a swell.

Safe flight, pom.

Thanks, gyac. Airport seems as packed as ever, there are just more face masks than usual. Kind of disappointed tbh.

At BWI with people eating all around me and one woman with a Green Bay Packers sweatshirt (so you know she’s unvaxxed) defiantly unmasked.

Good 'ol BWI. Stay safe.

I traveled from BWI a week before Thanksgiving and then came back on Dec 11th and it was the nearest I'd ever come to hardcore holiday flying, and YIKES. Sending good energy to you and anyone doing this this year

Haven’t flown since 2018, totally insane that all these people are not wearing masks

yeah I mean like, people get sick at the airport anyway

the airport is the only place where I see white people from the suburbs or whatever and I hate all of them so much

G. D’Arcy Cheesewright (silby), Wednesday, 16 November 2022 23:51 (one year ago) link

yeah I mean like, people get sick at the airport _anyway_


yeah i mean i was wiping down my seat and tray table and sometimes wearing a mask even before covid— getting sick from a flight experience happened to me a few too many times when i was younger.

also cosign re suburbanites— jesus these people are so normie and awful

Living in London has really taken any affection I had for airports out of me lol. The standardization is a bummer too, like every airport in Europe now having that damn duty free shopping corridor you need to go through.

My flight was booked for 6am so I stayed up and left the house at 3:15am. Flight was changed to 9:45am so I tried napping supine on the banks of chairs. It was phenomenally uncomfortable!

Nobody looks cool going through TSA screening. This, I suddenly realize, is my biggest issue with flying: I only like things that look cool

There’s a Sammy’s here (as in Hagar). Do I go for some tequila?

calstars, Friday, 1 September 2023 00:21 (seven months ago) link

does a Hagar shit in the woods? hell yes brother

It’s a good tequila and I think you deserve it. Try not to show up in a viral video later.

I was desperate enough to hear a follow up to 1984 that I gave 5150 another chance last weekend after nearly 30 years of abstinance. Starting with "Dreams", i made it as far as "reach for the golden ring" on my first attempt before switching it off.

The second time through was unbearably sad, though. It's the optimism for a future that never materialized, where you know you're watching a tragedy but the actors still think it's another kind of play. Part of it is def that there's a certain brand of corporate modernism preserved in amber, like they've ditched the laser grid of 1984, put on a blazer and stepped into the Frasurbane Mcdonalds. But also the energy of a new creative partnership that seems full of promise but already peaked.

Oh, Sammmy, I'd love a tequila TY for offering.
