I’ll never forget the look on peoples’ faces when I explained to them what the V stood for. As if they’d been lied to for years.

I learned the hard way that this kind of separation anxiety in dogs is sadly made worse when you give them a ton of attention before leaving and when returning. If you (painfully) ignore the dog for 10 mins on either side it will help them in the long run.

I applaud you for avoiding the absurdist term “deplaning”, but I’m not convinced that ‘deboarding a plane’ is much better. Exiting?

Is that the opposite of divide and conquer?
Babbling Brooklyn (@deftestleftist.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes absolutely, but also, to be fair as someone who’s lived in rent stabilized units for over 2 decades, I have to stop myself every time and say the opposite of what I naturally think. The names really feel reversed. Stable sounds like it doesn’t increase and the other like it goes up a bit.
