Noooooooo

There's more masking on this flight than I have seen in a long time and I'm trying to figure out why. Any recent infectious disease conferences in Detroit?

Flight 2, airport 2. Man coughing up a lung next to me as I adjust my mask and pray for vaccine efficacy.

Made it on to the plane, my seatmate was loudly discussing his plans to "get some attention from the wife then go shooting". Have turned my "abortion is a human right" tote bag to a higher visibility angle.

ETA - sorted thanks!

I'm so sorry that happened. That sucks.

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

Hypothetically speaking, of course

It's almost like all that deep concern about antisemitism from the right wing is a disingenuous ploy to dismantle higher education while pinning the blame on Jews in a way that simultaneously aligns with the worst fever dreams of christofascists who are really REALLY excited about the end times.
