apparently this is to be recommended
while boarding a cross country red eye flight last night I noticed the pilot and his plum
he is gently peeling off the sticker
polishing the plum with a white napkin
inspecting it like a proud father
now he is eating his plum, how delicious it must be

edit: blurred the pilot's face
reject cringe, embrace whimsy. I want to remember thinking the clouds look like mountains or the land looks like a quilt, now with this hot new visual aid.
Sounds weird but it’s pretty straightforward. Lightly tap the fuselage as you board the plane. I was taught to always do this as a gesture of goodwill and respect for the aircraft. My grandfather was an airman who spent much of his time in the Far East and I think the cultural affinity for honor respect etc crap like that really sat with him
anyway Ive had ppl tell me this made them not only feel nice, but safer too. PMA baby (Positive mental attitude)
this is worthy of celebration: the lack of video—autoplay video, noisy inane video, panicky video, algorithmic, dumb video, rabbit hole video, any video—on pi.fyi is a good thing
