The plane had to land for refueling in Osaka, which added to the return time.

I hope your friend recovers from her internalized transphobia, and you with your externalized.

That and it makes them look good. Kinda "hey we sent this person to an active warzone and they got hurt/killed. But we gave them this medal to make up for it"

Men's rooms don't have changing stations? Now that I think about it I've never seen this when I've traveled to Europe.

My guess is the airline didn't have a process to approve landing at another airport.
Landing fees, storage, maintenance, and next flights on the schedule would all have been affected.
Plane probably usually flies back and forth already.
An admin looked at the schedule and realised they had to cancel the return flight already. They don't need the plane there it'll fly back empty.
Then there's the cost of landing at a different airport and unloading passengers, luggage etc. transporting them all onwards to the right place.
It's not difficult to see that to return the plane and passengers to their departure lounge and cancel the outgoing flight too was the cheapest option.

>Not to take away from those who earned a Purple Heart but the military loves to give them out for about anything.
They had crates full of the things left over after WWII because they were made in expectation of an invasion of the Japanese home islands. Naturally the invasion didn't end up happening, so they were just left with a whole bunch of medals and no one to give them to.
I think they're still using those medals to this day. If that's how many they have, I'm not surprised they hand them out like candy.

But not a real one, right? The Purple Heart is a military medal.
> The Purple Heart is awarded in the name of the President of the United States to any member of the Armed Forces of the United States who, while serving under competent authority in any capacity with one of the U.S. Armed Services after 5 April 1917, has been wounded or killed.
Did these chuds go down to the local trophy shop, and and have the Little League trophy guy steal some valor for them?

If a guy needs to use the toilet and that's the only thing available to him, he can use it. Nothing wrong with that.

Reply to comment by epiquinnz in Boris Johnson wants to become NATO Secretary General by thejebusofsuburbia
Putin depends on help from leaders he can bribe. He helped Trump with funding through the NRA and via hacking the DNC emails for Trump. Trump repaid him by trying to weaken NATO and talk positive about Putin. Putin helped Boris with advertising and misinformation on facebook. He's probably expecting Boris to help him back.
Roger Waters supported Putin in front of the UN. How much did he get from Putin? We'll probably never know.

It took something like 18 months to determine that charges were warranted against Alec Baldwin but a DA determined that the shooting of Ward was "justified" within two days? I'm going to bet that was one hasty investigation. This is why cops have lost the confidence of the public.

You do realize that men take upskirt photos outside of bathrooms too, right? Peeping Toms and voyeurism is not a new phenomenon. It’s not the location, it’s the men.
