Have you felt that airline travel was too isolating?
![]() But wait, you say, Everyone gets both armrests! Isn't that great? There are no armrests in that picture. And where would they go?

Why don't they just pack everyone in oil and open the fuselage with a huge key on arrival?

I love how the business suit that drew this made the majority of the seats vacant. Makes it seem downright palatial.

Happy Monkey, that is truly the stuff of nightmares.
But, I am comforted in the knowledge that the children deprived of praise and connection in such an environment will simply keep seeking until they find it. I didn't read much beyond the blog post itself, and it has a powerful bitterness to it, bordering on satire. I wonder if it's really real. Do you know?

It's a real thing. Here's a bit of a follow-up to the article from the Washington Post. It was written from the perspective of someone fired under the system, so take it with a grain of salt. But if just the objective claims, omitting subjective experience, are accurate, it seems pretty horrible to me.

good lord.
to my understanding, the worst (nightmare) scenario here is that this absurd approach won't die quickly, though it will not succeed. that it will just linger, harming students (and potentially good, enthusiastic teachers) before being discarded as the waste of time it unquestionably is.

Makes me seasick watching it...Story at CNBC. Why the fuck would you try landing in 75 mph winds? ETA: One of the commenters says the vid was sped up. IDK.
