@carolinapopear @AmericanAir Pretty sure this was a bot response--it appeared as soon as I'd posted the first tweet. I did send them my record locator, though, so we'll see if a human comes through.
@Americanair printed my plane ticket for another person with my name and didn’t know how to handle it when we both showed up to sit in the same seat a couple of nights ago on a flight from LGA to XNA.
@americanair held up a flight unnecessarily for over two hours, traumatized my kids, and made a very stressful situation much worse than it had to be. I will not be flying with them again, but if you are, demand they do better.
They feared people realizing that you can get someone else’s ticket just by sharing their name, and that their “security” is a joke. Maybe they feared the other passengers hearing the police tell me that this two-hour delay wasn’t really a police matter at all.
Bullets fired from war weapons like the one in Texas today liquefy tissue and vaporize bone. They destroy children’s faces. When we voted last year to ban these guns off our streets 99% of republicans in Congress voted no.
THE MOST COMMON PROBLEM WITH MEN'S PANTS
DeSantis' outfit here illustrates one of the most common problems with pants—and the one that requires a bit of know-how to fix. So let's talk about it. 🧵
For male academics (who are 4x more likely to have a partner at home doing domestic care), the start of the COVID pandemic was a publishing boon. Of the 45 most prolific medical journal authors (60+ papers) during the 1st 18 months, just 5 were women.

It wasn’t long before everyone knew that dinosaurs were being released into the city. Nobody debated at first, everyone agreed; dinosaurs were being released into the city.
It would have been a hard thing to deny. The screams were in everyone’s ears.

I went into lockdown for Sandy Hook over 10 years ago and now am locked down at the University of Oklahoma. Something has to change because thoughts and prayers do not stop unnecessary acts of violence

This is all so awful - I'm working while tuning into Channel 4, where the reporter standing outside Covenant School is describing how difficult this is for her to cover because she herself is a survivor of a school shooting in 8th grade.
I have no maternal instinct. I've never wanted to have kids, not a day in my life. I still know that the right of a child to come home alive at the end of a school day supersedes my right to have unfettered access to guns. It's not a hard moral choice. It's not even a question.
