Sleep-deprived thoughts at the airport:
I got up at 3:30 to catch this flight after going to bed at 12:30 bc life. Staggering around flinching at light like a vampire, it occurs to me that sleep deprivation is literally tortureand there’s no actual reason except capitalist domination to force new parents to return to work after the birth of a child. Just give everybody two years off work at full pay. We have the resources. Everyone will be better for it, not just them.
Going into the restrooms at the airport, it’s a gang bathroom with like 30 stalls. There’s one accessible stall at the end of each row that has a sign that says “reserved for accessibility or baby-changing.” Again, just make all the stalls accessible. I’ve had apartments smaller than the individual stalls in Keflavik, so clearly it’s both understood and possible. We’ll all be better off.
