@dumpling Honestly, if I didn't love going to different places so much, I would have just given it up... I traveled a lot when I was a little kid because my parents were divorced, and I would fly by myself from the time I was 5 or 6 and I LOVED it. Now, it's the worst part of every trip by FAR, and I include the time that I had bronchitis + the flu for 9 days in Venice in December.

@dumpling I am sorry I am 2 days late responding to this-- it's been a busy week.
Yeah, I've weirdly not encountered that this time around, and I'm not sure if it's that the current administration is so bad at their job that they don't realize my last name is Middle Eastern, but after September 11th and during the beginning of the Iraq War, I was CONSTANTLY "randomly selected" for pat downs and luggage checks when they saw my name on my boarding pass.
