Hello my fellow shoal of fish. I am seeking recommendations for a lounge chair in my office. I currently have the adjustable stand desk and a relatively comfortable office chair (not when reclining) but the other half of my office is empty. Im putting in a 55” tv and need a recliner, lounge chair, or something of the sorts to put in front of the tv. Something where i can put my feet up. Conference calls are such a drag when i have to sit at my desk.

Why are airport neck pillows so flimsy? $15 and it didn't even survive coming out of the packaging.

Please share your experience flying with pets. I have 2 cats (9mos old) and i will be flying cross country with them next month.

Can I just vent on how annoyed I am with the increase in “priority boarding” of people that are able bodied? I am happy to let them on first. But I think they should get off last. So many times they are limping or in a wheelchair boarding. And then when we land that are the first to jump up and scurry off. Just not ethical.

I just got a new credit card. It came with a Priority Pass membership. I always travel economy, I hardly ever get lounge access. I got excited, until I remembered I can’t travel and lounges are closed anyways. :(

I’m relocating in two weeks, which requires flying with my cat. I’ve never flown with a pet in-cabin before. (U.S. domestic flight) I already have a vet appointment booked for the vet certificate. Anything else I should make sure to do before my trip? Any tips from those who have flown with a pet before ?

I’m loving the resurgence of this bowl. Making me feel like I’m about to board group 1 somewhere 💕
