I enjoyed all the experiences. But public transportation is significantly more stressful and uncomfortable now, with longer waits, more aggressive searches, overworked and aggravated staff, fewer amenities, bigger expenses, cramped seating, travelers who angrily seek political confrontation, and obnoxious delays. There’s really nothing pleasant about it anymore, hence “it’s more of a hostile endurance test”.

Between 9/11 and Covid, I was invited by a flight crew to ditch my Midwest destination and continue on to a party in Baltimore, guided by a stranger on a long bus trip and given his blanket so I could sleep leaning against him, shared food and gossip for hours with a large group of people I didn’t know, was offered a home-cooked meal and a night at a ranch in Texas with my family, exchanged numbers with new friends, etc.

Now traveling isn’t a holiday - it’s more of a hostile endurance test. We all just want to be left alone.

The headline should include Granger’s DEMENTIA.

She’s been absent from work since July, living in a luxury retirement home, with dementia.

I’m not finding anything about a billionaire family or his potential $100 million inheritance. While there’s no denying he grew up in a wealthy family, the online speculation articles are mostly guessing at the value of his grandmother’s estate - which would be divided among 10 children. It all looks like guesswork.

Any legit sources for Luigi Mangione’s net worth?

Pinkerton stayed with the St Louis PD until he was “forced out” in 2021. He posted on Facebook:

“For all you mother f—— at the St. Louis Police Department,” one post began last November, “especially the Internal Affairs Division, you can all kiss my a— for condemning me and pushing me out of my decorated career and losing my ability to retire with the benefits I wanted, all because I exposed the corruption behind the prosecution of Derek Chauvin.”

Don’t worry, he immediately bounced to a police department in a nearby town, where he remains on active duty.

Disgusting but true. Most voters won’t look at policy; they just want the illusion of a “strong man”.

Is it my imagination, or did I see a wanted poster in Manhattan for Darren Woods, the chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil?

I have a relative who works there, so I was given a more complete picture of this shitshow right after it happened.

The health district doctor who pushed for this, John Tribble MD, is from California - where his medical license (109949) was revoked, stayed, then placed on five years probation in April 2015, because of his anti-vax extremism. He eventually moved to south-central Idaho and joined a religious medical clinic. I believe he is still affiliated with it. https://heart2healministry.net/providers/

Conspiracy theorist guest speakers from other states presented to the board every crazy lie from their repertoire, including how the vaccine gives people Covid-19.

Many competent medical staff members, already alarmed at the toxic workplace environment, are now resigning from the health district.
