-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Shutting down DIA honestly sounds like a plus to me, genuinely my least favorite airport fuck that place.
It’s a nightmare to navigate, finding your gate takes forever and finding the exit is impossible.
It’s obvious the place was built pre-TSA because TSA is set up in a big like, lobby area that was very obviously intended to be an open space with no barricades. It’s been over 20 years and it still looks like they just temporarily set up in there for an event.
Driving into it sucks. Driving out of it sucks. The signage is terrible and the roads are confusing.
It’s surprisingly far from Denver, it takes like 45 minutes to drive to the city from there, plus people frequently fly there to go to any other city on the east side of Colorado because the flights are way cheaper than to COS which is the only other major airport, but DIA is on the north east side of Denver making it super annoying to go anywhere else. If you look at a map it’s almost like the city of Denver is holding the airport away from the other cities on I-25 and going “Nuh-uh it’s mine you can’t have it”

(TSA falling apart is very bad, I just wanted to rant about the Denver airport)
I’ll give you everything except
Bluecifer is the only redeemable part of the airport lol if I’m going to have to sit through traffic hell by the airport I might as well have a demon horse to look at
