59 out of 10,000 attendees in a weeks time is an infection rate less than HALF the rate of the population as a whole. Less than 0.5% of attendees.

The US is currently experiencing a rate of about 6 million cases a week. With Omicron exploding in the past couple weeks, about 1.7% of the entire population is getting…

I was at MAG. I tested negative, I feel great. I give them a lot of credit for going beyond the county mask mandate and requiring full vaccination to attend. People were also following the mask mandate, too. I was really impressed with what the con was doing and I appreciate their transparency about where people may…

Oh my God, you’re either a troll or a goddamn idiot.

You’re one of those people on that plane that were clapping, weren’t you? Trump 2016 amirite?

The reaction wasn’t that serious, he got on another flight later that day, where there were certainly still traces of dog/cat in the plane (because they all have traces) which would have set him off again if he had the type of allergy you speak of.

So, no, based on the facts as presented that wasn’t the case.

Considering your attitude, I’d side with you going in the cargo area, and the (very much sentient) dog travelling in first class.

Pets in cargo die far too frequently (would you trust your pet to airline baggage handlers?) The hold itself isn’t too bad (it shares air with the cabin, so people with severe allergies are still at risk), though it can be stressful for the dog. The real problem is that the airlines don’t immediately deal with the…

It’s not parking 20 feet closer, it’s parking there as opposed to possibly all the way across the lot if there were no dedicated handicapped spots up close. Handicaps come in all descriptions, and having limited mobility does not mean you necessarily need a cane or a chair or a scooter—you may just be limited in your…

I think you are lying to try to make your point. How do you survive out in the big, bad, scary world, with these meds that might fail?

I wouldn’t claim mine is a service dog, but I wouldn’t want him to be killed in the cargo hold either.

Spoken like a true dipshit that doesn’t understand what therapy dogs are. Fuck you and your fucking stupidity.

People are allergic to lots of things . Perfume, milk , peanuts, shellfish 0—- which are not generally banned from flights. Your reason to ban one and not the other is what? That one bothers you and the other doesn't ? Seems wildly principled.

So, you’d be clapping along, then? I think you missed empathy class, go spend a little time with someone who looks okay but can only stand or walk for short bursts without being in pain, or who doesn’t know when their Parkinson’s might cause them to barely be able to move at all. You clearly know nothing of others’…

I recently moved across the country with my cat. The only way the cat was allowed to travel was in a cat carrier under my seat. Cargo wasn’t an option.

That said, if you know you have allergies, take some meds before you go into a situation where you might be exposed. I wouldn’t clap at anyone’s misfortune but it…
