    Tomorrow is a grading day. I will probably put on movies to help pass the time. Any good ideas for Netflix movies that I can easily follow with divided attention?

    Train it is then!

    Or I'll just be baller and buy two seats and flip everyone off that asks for the one next to me.

    trains are very cheap here if you're early

    and you have legroom and a table to sit and play cards at and you can walk around to stretch your legs and get some food

    very comfy

    i hate international flying. customs, long-as-fuck flights, more lame security.

    but domestic flights are whatever. i never show up too early, never missed a flight, eat before i go etc. it's not too bothersome to me.

    yeah I gotta admit that airplanes aren't the most comfy way to spend a long stretch of time

    I thought you said flying is awesome

    I guess I haven't done a long train ride since I was an adult so maybe that's the best option (but it seems like trains are often even more expensive than flying)

    teleporters pls

    Have you tried the mega buses? The ones around here supposedly have relatively roomy seats and wifi.

    I took a bus to NYC from DC once and it wasn't great

    but we did the super cheap like $20 ea way one so

    These ones are about $60.

    They'd better be worth $60.

    If you're willing to pay for it, train is probably a lot better. Some busses can be nice but I do not trust them, even more expensive ones.

    because of the two ferries I can get food when taking the bus, and also stretch my legs and just get a change so I'm not as bored, and I can get a smoke while waiting by the quay, which is why I don't take the stavanger-bergen boat

    I flew on an Air Force cargo plane to/from Hawaii

    It was the best flight ever

    after takeoff you can get up and wander around

    set up a sleeping bag to nap

    amazing

    well to a point

    domestic flights are nice which was what I responded to

    and except for the longest american domestic flights I could comfortably stand for that stretch of time, so

    I got these vouchers from work as an incentive thing. Some of them are on what I thought was a prepaid debit card, but nope, just has a giant visa debit logo on it despite not being usable as such.

    I don't really shop at any of the places that accept these things. I suppose I could ebay them?

    I don't know.

    Reading a very interesting article (in Swedish, alas) about how physical illness is linked to mental illness.

    People with syphilis used to suffer from dementia and outright psychosis. Cured with penicillin.

    Major events like the Spanish flu in 1918 or strict food rationing during the world wars led to malnutrition, and children born during that period were a lot more likely to develop schizophrenia. And the grandchildren of those people having kids during those events had a sub-average weight for newborns, because egg cells are developed during the fetal stage and stay dormant until puberty.

    Roughly 25% of people with an autism spectrum disorder have increased intestinal permeability. Which sounds pretty much like the root of my stomach issues.

    Robot and Frank is a really fun movie. The plot's important but it's also pretty straightforward.

    Then you spend the rest of the movie wishing you had the robot and not quite fearing being old as much.

    excluding the local transit (probably an extra 15ish minutes for me to get to philly airport versus philly train station and like an extra 25 minutes to get to boston airport rather than boston train station)... flight travel time, roundtrip total: 2h26m. train roundtrip total: 13h18m. 168 round trip vs 118.

    greyhound would be 78 bucks and just over 14h roundtrip but those savings aren't enough for me. it's just way too uncomfy to save 40 bucks over train.

    megabus and boltbus prices aren't available yet for the travel dates
