Flying used to be this magical, miraculous thing! - eviltoast

these guys used to be daring adventurers with goggles and swag and now the pilots have to wear a button down and the airlines squeeze every penny out of you and every drop of fun or joy or magic or adventure out of the experience.

in the 20s it was a great adventure! in the 60s people wore suits and got proper meals! now we just get xrayed and told we can’t bring in water! i love starting my vacation being treated as a terrorist!

    I love the VIA 🥰 too bad they’re having so much trouble building a high speed rail there though, it’s honestly such a perfect use case…
