Apparently if you buy a @Delta ticket for 2 ppl, and the flight is operated by KLM, and you check in on https://t.co/GfvJmEVUKc, it assigns arbitrary seats nowhere near each other, and you can no longer check in on the KLM site where you could've picked seats. 🙄

There's a whole world of Indian contributions to men's style, even in the space of Western aesthetics. But you can't be a racist fuckwad if you want to learn about the world.

This is a real plan. “Throw trans people under a bus a little harder” is not a real plan. That’s the thin end of the wedge.

So what? If they dodge these rules, we make up more rules. Sometimes it takes a few cycles. But ultimately tax exemptions are supposed to be for the public good and the public can take them away. 🤷♀️
Prediction: AB 1780 (ending legacy/donor admissions in CA) will backfire. In its place will be a whole series of activities and clubs for potential students to show they are committed to Stanford & USC years in advance of applying. These will be even more expensive and exclusive

Some people do the NYT crossword after lunch every day at work and sometimes I join them, so I actually ran across this in the wild today: “acronym for pro-housing movement”, 5 letters: YIMBY.

In 2022 Ukraine flooded with this type of guy. A bunch of random guys claiming to have some kinds of connections in the military, intel that were completely fake. Sometimes an ego thing, sometimes scam, sometimes a way to try to pick up 22 year olds. Sometimes mental health issue
Warning about Ryan Routh: he is not, and never has been, associated with the International Legion or the Ukrainian Armed Forces at all. He is not, & never has been, a legion recruiter. He is misrepresenting himself and lying to many people.

All universities that do legacy admissions are fundamentally corrupt institutions that should be stripped of their tax exemptions and that's my opinion.

The idea that expecting somebody to oppose the most cartoon villain evil doctrines of the Catholic Church is somehow exclusionary toward Catholics as a group is the most Protestant bullshit I have ever seen on this website.

"He's Catholic" is not an excuse. First off, nobody forces him to be a Catholic. And second, the Catholic Church wouldn't be so big if they really expected people to believe half of what they technically preach. Source: my home town has been Catholic since before Charlemagne.
@JHof @maxdubler @clmarohn In practice "Catholic doctrine" is the hobby of some sexually frustrated theology professors and the only reason the church is still as big as it is is that most people simply ignore it. If everyone in my home town can do it so can Mr Marohn.

Americans be normal about transit challenge
MCPS is so fundamentally broken that nobody within it has figured out that this major light rail line, with tracks going in by multiple MCPS schools, should trigger a change in its policy for bus drivers crossing train tracks. We've known about the Purple Line tracks for years.
