Unless you MUST have a medical, dental, veterinary appointment on 2/28, reschedule these as well.

Include other service appointments like oil changes or carpet cleaning.

Investigate your service providers. Switch when their values don't align w/yours.

The bottom line: The FAA is a necessary agency, and its workers are keeping those in the sky and those on the ground safe. To gut or disband it would be a governmental insanity we've never known in modern air travel.

Fuck nazis, then and now.

My old townhouse is now my Airbnb (albeit in Flint, MI) so I'm in a few Airbnb host groups. These are currently filled w/folks who rented hotel rooms, VRBOs, and Airbnbs (and I assume traditional bed and breakfast spaces) well above market rate ($700+ v $250) & can't get refunds. HA!
