Have US airports always been a concentrated dose of American dystopia or has it just been O'Hare and everything post-9/11?

@arclight The incel magazine isn't supposed to outright say that it's an incel magazine.
@dalias CA-CAWWWW!!!

I feel like I've woken up in an Idiocracy LARP.
I haven’t flown since 2019. When I miss travel, I have a little list of things I reflect on to keep from getting sad: that time on Southwest when I was in the middle seat between two 300 pound guys, the NYT story about the airline with a bedbug problem, and now this.
In the past, I used to enjoy spending time in most airports, with the food and shopping and no pressure to do anything but catch my flight. But these sights you have here

@arclight So, this is why they call it a pecker?

This is why men are idiots.
@RVLara23 Guilty as charged. We are dumb as hell.

@arclight Remember kids, if the consequence is a fine, it’s not illegal, there’s just a cost to doing business that you have to factor into what you charge for whacking people.

@arclight I CAN'T WORK UNLESS I AM IN A TINY STERILE CUBICLE, LIKE MY OLD JOB
@ai6yr @arclight I'm really not getting it. It's not even private... If at least you couldn't see inside maybe I could kind of understand, but with that glass anyone can just walk up and stare in.
By the dull lighting on face thing they're advertising so gleefully I guess the only thing this is really good for is stuff like making video calls or something? Well, that definitely sounds like a techbro thing...
(And why 2700K? Only one person thinks that's good for face lighting...)

Techbro: "There are real, live people out there! TOO SCARY! MUST FIND PLACE TO HIDE! THE POORS! TOO MANY!"

Away from your sterile metallic Skinner Box condo? Need coffee but can't bear the thought of "interacting" with other "people" who might have a "personality" and subject you to "conversation"? Obtain coffee from one of our emotionless robot baristas - just like Wire Mom used to make!
@arclight it surely is terrible coffee, but airports are one of the places I will absolutely go to great lengths to not interact with any more people because I am already overwhelmed, exhausted, irritable, etc. and I'm trapped there. I need quiet, dark, alone time to recharge. airports are torture devices.
-
Encounter a wild techbro in the airport? Don't worry - contact one of Austin Bergstrom Airport's Techbro Control Specialists who will bait one of our specially constructed techbro live traps with Claude tokens, capture, and harmlessly release the techbro at one of our server farms upstate
@arclight remember to spay/neuter stray techbros!

So old I remember walking onto the tarmac to greet my dad's plane when he came home on work trips. They still had the roll up steps then.

@arclight it's a ruse

Wow we must have just missed each other. Where are you headed?

I didn't have my glasses on so for about ten seconds I thought the brand name was "man sheath"

@arclight That is going on the list of the most horrible things that I have ever seen.

Other people are seeing this as a pecker, but I'm seeing it as a giant chomp on the penis!
Looks like it would involve screaming, and not from the bird

Every time something such USian comes between me and my friends, it's almost obligatory to reference that clip: https://youtu.be/P7JRvwfHFwo -
