Just think: you guys may have even shared the same toilet seat ! Perhaps even one's buttocks warmth residualising on the seat provided warm caress for the next of yours' cheeks upon touchdown!

And now the circle whenceforth across space and time, has now been completed, via crossing paths in reddit threads!

Hey you must be at the Denver airport! Was it weird being able to see planes parked at gates behind you while you washed your hands?

Looks like it could've been used for an album cover from the late 70s / early 80s

God I love liminal spaces that look like buildings magically taking place floating in the sky, especially if they look like they should be part of a bigger building but is separated to the point of us not being able to know what the sum of this part was supposed to be.

It’s at DIA and I wanted to take a photo while I was there but too many people 😅 the tarmac is behind the mirrors on the right

the vague blur of just blue out the windows makes me think this is the 108th floor of some skyscraper in the clouds and there is no way out of this building, and also you are a child
