A large group of people are gonna die from this before long. The gop will blame it on woke and the Dems will blame it on the left.

Is this one of those things that's been happening for a long time but it's just what's hot in the media cycle? Like remember when people found out how many train derailments there are every year after the Palestine Ohio incident?
-
Sure the radar goes out so the aliens can land at the deep underground military base that's under the airport.
-
ohh this is that airport isn't it?
-
Very demur, very phallic.

:blucifer-shining:
- The sixth busiest airport in the world, surrounded by hazardous terrain and military bases, 1600+ flights per day.

Trump: "We've gotta find a way to get another 9/11, I don't care how we do it!"
Air Traffic Controll througout the USA starts going down constantly
Voiceover: Trump was in fact, asking for another 7/11 to get a diet Coke slurpee.

The thumbnail is a very funky (and evil?) sculpture at the airport.
Blue Mustang (colloquially known as Blucifer) is a cast-fiberglass sculpture of a mustang located at Denver International Airport (DEN). Colored bright blue, with illuminated glowing red eyes, it is notable both for its striking appearance and for having killed its sculptor, Luis Jiménez, when a section of it fell on him at his studio.

Blucifer mentioned!!!

Yep, I don't need any convincing, I can tell from the thumbnail that it was the horse.

Shutting down DIA honestly sounds like a plus to me, genuinely my least favorite airport fuck that place.
It’s a nightmare to navigate, finding your gate takes forever and finding the exit is impossible.
It’s obvious the place was built pre-TSA because TSA is set up in a big like, lobby area that was very obviously intended to be an open space with no barricades. It’s been over 20 years and it still looks like they just temporarily set up in there for an event.
Driving into it sucks. Driving out of it sucks. The signage is terrible and the roads are confusing.
It’s surprisingly far from Denver, it takes like 45 minutes to drive to the city from there, plus people frequently fly there to go to any other city on the east side of Colorado because the flights are way cheaper than to COS which is the only other major airport, but DIA is on the north east side of Denver making it super annoying to go anywhere else. If you look at a map it’s almost like the city of Denver is holding the airport away from the other cities on I-25 and going “Nuh-uh it’s mine you can’t have it”
The stupid giant blue horse statue with glowing red eyes as you drive in
(TSA falling apart is very bad, I just wanted to rant about the Denver airport)

I’ll give you everything except
The stupid giant blue horse statue with glowing red eyes as you drive in
Bluecifer is the only redeemable part of the airport lol if I’m going to have to sit through traffic hell by the airport I might as well have a demon horse to look at
-
Why would you drive into or out of DIA? The train to Union Station is so much better on all fronts and only takes like 30 minutes, costs 10 bucks, and drops you off directly in the TSA line. The old security line is pretty terrible, but it moves quickly and the new line upstairs is great. I can excuse the 300 or so gates because of the riff on the trains and the windmills.

I actually love the Denver airport but only for the artistic fans that spin when the trams are running past them.
That said, I do have some nostalgia for the pre-TSA days and it was one of the more comfortable airports because of the lobby space.
-
I do love the fans that spin from the tram those are very fun

I like DIA better than any other US airport I’ve been to. Have you been to LAX? No charging ports before security, barely anywhere to sit because the restaurants all close their seating unless you pay their ridiculous food prices. Baltimore sucked too, and Orlando you have to listen to that douchebag Governor every time you ride the tram. Vegas was bad for obvious reasons, plus being headed by CBP because I was coming back from China and they decided to search all my bags and found my Little Red Books was just a great way to spend my layover.
-
I like Denver for layovers! It’s never my home base or final stop so can’t speak much about location but I agree, it’s built well for chillin.
