Flying sucks. My job used to be 50% travel (all coach) so I think I can say that. The fact that American, Delta, USAir, etc., act like you should feel fucking privileged to set foot on their flying influenza-buses just makes it worse. Southwest’s attitude of, “Yeah, we know this kinda sucks so we’re going to have…

I love when they say weird and funny things. The last Southwest flight I was on we just docked into the gate and the attendant came on and was like ‘Ok everyone get off my plane’ in a deadpan voice. She’d been doing it all flight. I thought she was hilarious.
TRUTH. Babies are adorable. I don’t even mind if they are deeply unhappy babies crying because their tiny ears are popping. They are babies, and they are just doing their Baby Thang. Loud dudes, however, can eat a bag of unsalted dicks. Y’all hoes are obnoxious, and the worst.
I was on a Southwest flight where an attendant came on and said “Belts on, everyone - the Captain wants to try something.” Totally out of the blue, no followup. I thought it was awesome and everyone had a good laugh.
On longer flights: The seat is designed to recline. The airline has no rule against reclining the seat. I’d like some sleep before I get to my destination after a 6, 7, 8 hour flight.
Let’s not forget the republican working hard to suppress the vote as well. Voter suppression laws are not taken as seriously as they should seeing how many votes in Detroit alone were thrown out by the democratic party. Also how many people at the last moment were purged by the RNC.
Hot take: Loud dudes (they don’t even have to be drunk) are by far worse than babies on a plane.
That’s so disingenuous, comparing Hillary’s ground game to Obama’s without mentioning the completely unprecedented, insane, racist/sexist/criminal/corrupt/brain-damaged wildcard Trump factor, which is unlike anything any candidate has ever had to confront, ever. It’s flatly dishonest to pretend any historical metric…
I’d not put too much emphasis on the lack of lawn signs this year. I’m a devoted democrat and Hillary supporter and I didn’t put one out because I didn’t want my car keyed in my driveway.
I was an organizer in Michigan. Obama alums were on the HRC campaign. That’s really all I will say. If anything, I think we underestimated the radicalization of white men and that white woman would vote race over gender. Let’s move forward.
look how can we blame the campaign when there haven’t been any contemporary examples of extraordinarily run campaigns that leaned heavily on ground game, grassroots tactics
Ultimately, we are the ones who decide what we will demand from the people we put into power. Which is why we will always get what we deserve.
I work for a city government in California. As part of that work, I tangentially oversee some procurement. Due to that, I, like nearly 30,000 other California public employees, file a Form 700 with the California Fair Political Practices Commission where I disclose any financial interests that MIGHT possibly raise a…
Here is a required disclaimer to ensure my point is taken seriously and not dismissed as the ravings of some misguided Trump supporter: I voted for Hillary. I was not and am not terribly fond of her, but she was the objectively more qualified candidate and a demonstrably better human being. I don’t vote for…
The answer is incredibly simple, we pass a series of laws clearly delineating conflicts of interest and mandating financial transparency to assume the office.

I assume it’s contingency in case POTUS needed to be scooped out of NYC in a hurry.
You don’t generally fly training missions over the most densely inhabited area of the entire United States at low altitude and in circles over a 5-block radius in broad daylight.
This is much more likely to do with our POTUS elect.
